The article presents an overview of the literature on Maribor’s music history from the thirteenth century to the present day and highlights the problem of the organised archive material of various ...institutions. An analysis of current achievements reveals gaps in our knowledge of the sections of Maribor’s music history discussed to date and suggests areas for further research.
For interactivity, the virtual world so often relies on a physical component, but how might virtual spaces be made more tangible as spatial environments for exchange? Under the direction of architect ...and RMIT University professor Tom Kovac, in 2012 the 100 Year City project rose to this challenge as part of the Maribor European Capital of Culture programme. Here, Guest‐Editor and Deputy Curator of the project, Fleur Watson, describes how this ‘super studio’ incites cross‐disciplinary exchange and the sharing of progressive design ideas for sustainable blueprints for our cities. It is an initiative that is to be continued under Kovac's directorship with the 100 Year City‐themed Malaysian Biennale in the summer of 2015.

The estimation of the economic effects of cultural events is a topic that has stirred numerous debates in cultural economics. Although economic impact studies and contingent valuation have been the ...most frequently used methods, both suffer from numerous problems. In this article, we use ex-post econometric verification as a new and promising method in cultural economics in the estimation of the economic effects of cultural events and apply it to the estimation of the effects of the 2012 European Capital of Culture Maribor on tourism and employment. This enables us to compare results from economic impact and ex-post econometric verification studies to find significant differences in particular in terms of new employment. We determine the net effects on new tourism and find that they were mainly present in Maribor, the holder of the project, and not in the other five partner cities. We conclude by reflecting on the state of the art of the studies of economic effects of cultural events in cultural economics and their relevance for the study of cultural tourism.
Maribor Synagogue is one of the few preserved medieval synagogues in Central Europe. The renovation of the building between 1992 and 1999, undertaken by the Institute for the Protection of Cultural ...Heritage of Slovenia, proved to be much more demanding than originally foreseen. Its architectural shell and architectural elements have served as a reference point for the (visual) reconstruction of related monuments in the wider region. However, the renovation itself has left numerous unanswered questions, especially in regard to the building phases during the Jewish and later Christian use of the building. The present article is the first scientific publication to thoroughly examine the medieval building phases, based on the findings of archaeological research and investigation of the documented and preserved architectural elements. Ground plans are attached for the initial two building phases, related to the archeological charts. The last phase corresponds to the reconstructed version of the synagogue, but convincing evidence relating to its appearance is missing. Although it is practically impossible to provide an entirely accurate building history based on the archival, oral and material evidence so far available, a significant step toward its general comprehension is made.
The important role of bl. Anton Martin Slomšek (1800–1862) in the initial ecumenical works in Central Europe is relatively well researched. But there is practically no research on his attitude ...towards Judaism. With this research, we discover his theoretical relationship to Jews and their biblical traditions by reviewing his sermons and pastoral texts, where he largely draws from the Bible. From his interpretations of passages of the word of God, it is possible to deduce his attitude. Since in many pastoral views and attitudes he practically »overtakes« the Second Vatican Ecumenical Council, we find that his theological-pastoral foreboding was similarly advanced in this area. In essential lines, it coincides with the ideas expressed for the universal Church by the Second Vatican Council in its statement Nostra aetate (1965). We also looked for traces of possible Slomšek’s direct personal contacts with Jews, since at the introduction of the diocesan seat in Maribor (1859) there were also a few Jews, but for now historically traces of such contacts could not be found.
This article summarises the pertinent facts and analyses the outcomes of the 2012-2013 protests, in particular those in Maribor, with the aim of arguing that an acute crisis of representation was the ...principal reason for the popular discontent which was only exacerbated by the economic crisis, otherwise identified as the crucial context of the protests. Despite a post-protest relapse into neoliberal depoliticisation, a subsequent redefinition of post-democratic citizenship has emerged via innovative forms of direct action. The methodologies used to create this text were partly descriptive and critical analytical, and partly militant research which integrates scientific research with civic political activities.
