The article deals with the methodological and epistemological characteristics of Slovenian and Italian historiography, engaged in the study of the history of the Italian-Slovenian border area in the 19th and 20 centuries; among the findings about these practices are their tendency to keep the debate within the paradigm of national-defence discourse, their being trapped in a practice of asymmetric portrayal of political entities and the tendency to simplify the complex multi-ethnic historical reality of the area. However, the study also brings to light some features of historiographical discontinuity that could, providing a more thorough cross-comparison between different historiographical practices, contribute to rising above this ethno-centric understanding of history.
