Book review - A. Kalc, M. Milharčič Hladnik, and J. Žitnik Serafin, Daring Dreams of the Future: Slovenian Mass Migrations 1870–1945
No full textThe migratory processes during the 19th and 20th centuries were a characteristic feature of Slovenian social and political history, deeply affecting the daily lives of entire communities, families, and individuals. In this book, two different phases of Slovenian migration are addressed: the free movement within and across state borders and then the interwar period, when migration policies were subordinated to the tyranny of the nation, which resulted in more restrictive measures.
The authors of this complex volume are Aleksej Kalc, Mirjam Milharčič Hladnik, and Janja Žitnik Serafin, researchers at the Slovenian Migration Institute at the Scientific Research Centre at the Slovenian Academy of Science and Arts. Over the past decades, they have made a significant contribution to Slovenian social, cultural, and political history, reconstructing the migratory movements that have taken place in the Adriatic border area and helping to shed light on integration processes, gender inequalities, and the cultural elements in which those who left and those who remained identified

Tako je tudi v primeru njene zadnje književne izdaje Orel in korenine med “brušenjem” in cenzuro, ki je izšla v zbirki Znanstvenoraziskovalnega centra SAZU. Gre za predelano in dopolnjeno vsebino osrednjega dela magistrske naloge Žitnikove, zagovarjane na Oddelku za germanistiko FF leta 1989. V njej avtorica razloži usodo rokopisa Adamičeve zadnje knjige Orel in korenine in sicer v kontekstu življenjepisa Louisa Adamiča in vplivov, ki so jih imeli posamezniki, predvsem žena Stella ter nekateri ožji Adamičevi prijatelji, na pisateljevo ustvarjanje

Immigrants in Slovenia: Integration Aspects
No full textOn the basis of the latest statistics, the author estimates the present share of first- and second-generation immigrants in Slovenia’s population. After examining the quantity and intensity of those public efforts in Slovenia that have been focused on unresolved problems of the immigrants’ social and cultural integration, she continues to question the equality of immigrant minorities in Slovenia, and the sufficiency of the existing programs aimed at facilitating their integration with Slovenian society at large. She explains her doubts about the general assumption that a very clear distinction should be made between the rights of the autochthonous minorities and those of the immigrant ones as far as their special protection is concerned. In the third section of this article, the author discusses the social-ethnic stratification of Slovenian society and tries to look into the psychological background of the nationality/ethnicity statistics. She presents some aspects of the immigrants’ daily experience in Slovenian social, cultural, educational and working milieu, and points to the authorities’ attitude toward them. She comments on the burning issue of the “deleted residents”, and illustrates it with the experience of one of the persons involved. The fourth section, in which the most regular symptoms of Slovenian xenophobia are presented, consists of first-hand observations and focuses on the daily human attitude of the national majority towards the immigrant minorities. Finally the author compares the nature of the specific needs of Slovenians as a “European national minority” with the needs of the immigrant minorities in Slovenia
Cultural Life of the Immigrant Community: Factors of Dynamics
No full textThis article explores the conditions that are required for a fully developed cultural and artistic activity (production, consumption and reception) going on within or in vital connection with the immigrant community. Drawing on the experience of Slovenian emigrant communities in other European countries, Australia, Argentina, Canada, the United States, Africa and the Arabian Peninsula, and the experience of the largest immigrant communities in Slovenia, that is the Bosniak-Muslim community, the Serbian, the Croatian, the Macedonian, the Montenegrin, the Albanian, and most of the Romany community, the author summarizes, from the viewpoint of literary and cultural historian, the most evident sets of factors that have been found relevant in terms of shaping those conditions in the case of the abovementioned communities. Relying on an information grid extracted from a most diverse selection of sources, the author attempts to point to some relevant aspects that have been largely neglected in the field of cultural historiography
Immigrants in Slovenia: Integration Aspects
Full text linkNa temelju posljednjih statističkih podataka autorica procjenjuje sadašnji udio prvog i drugog naraštaja imigranata u populaciji Slovenije. Nakon ispitivanja količine i intenziteta javnih napora u rješavanju otvorenih pitanja društvene i kulturne prilagodbe imigranata u Sloveniji, nastavlja s ispitivanjem jednakosti imigrantskih manjina u toj državi i dostatnosti postojećih programa za njihovu uspješniju integraciju u slovensko društvo. Autorica objašnjava svoje dvojbe s obzirom na opću pretpostavku da mora postojati jasna razlika između prava autohtonih manjina i imigrantskih skupina u pogledu njihove posebne zaštite. U trećem dijelu rada autorica raspravlja o socijalno-etničkoj stratifikaciji slovenskoga društva te nastoji osvijetliti psihološku pozadinu statističkih podataka o narodnosnoj strukturi. Nakon prezentacije nekih aspekata svakodnevnog iskustva imigranata u slovenskome društvenom, kulturnom, obrazovnom i radnom okruženju te odnosa vlasti prema njima, komentira aktualnu polemiku o »izbrisanima« i njihov doživljaj oduzimanja pravnog statusa, što ilustrira iskustvom jedne od osoba na koje se to izravno odnosi. Četvrti dio, u kojem su prikazani najčešći simptomi slovenske ksenofobije, sadrži neposredna opažanja koja se odnose na svakodnevni odnos nacionalne većine prema imigrantskoj manjini. Na kraju autorica uspoređuje specifične potrebe Slovenaca kao »europske nacionalne manjine« s potrebama imigrantske manjine u Sloveniji.On the basis of the latest statistics, the author estimates the present share of first- and second-generation immigrants in Slovenia’s population.

Cultural Life of the Immigrant Community: Factors of Dynamics
Full text linkU članku se istražuju uvjeti potrebni za odvijanje potpuno razvijene kulturne i umjetničke aktivnosti (proizvodnje, potrošnje i recepcije) unutar imigrantske zajednice ili u tijesnoj vezi s njom. Kao povjesničarka književnosti i kulture, autorica sažima najočiglednije sklopove činilaca koji su se pokazali važnima za oblikovanje tih uvjeta na temelju iskustva slovenskih iseljeničkih zajednica u europskim zemljama, Australiji, Argentini, Kanadi, Sjedinjenim Američkim Državama, Africi i na Arapskom poluotoku, kao i na osnovi iskustva velikih imigrantskih zajednica u Sloveniji: bošnjačko-muslimanske, srpske, hrvatske, makedonske, crnogorske, albanske i najvećeg dijela romske zajednice. Uzimajući u obzir mrežu informacija dobivenu iz veoma raznolikih izvora, autorica pokušava ukazati na neke relevantne aspekte koji se u kulturnoj historiografiji nikako ne bi smjeli zanemariti.This article explores the conditions that are required for a fully developed cultural and artistic activity (production, consumption and reception) going on within or in vital connection with the immigrant community.

The editing of Louis Adamic's book The Eagle and the Roots
No full textThe Eagle and the Roots is Louis Adamic's last book and, in his own opinion, his most important one. The printed version of that work is an expurgated version of the author's typescript which is preserved in several incomplete copies, kept in various public and private archives in Yugoslavia and in the United States. The work was written on the basis of the author's personal impressions during his second visit to his native land in 1949. The published version of The Eagle and the Roots discusses the political and economic conditions in Yugoslavia in 1949, the moods of the Yugoslav people, their top politicians and intellectuals at the time of the first five-year plan (Book One), including a biography of Josip Broz Tito until 1945 with an outline of the most important events in the country before and during World War II (Book Two). In various passages scattered in both books, it describes the selfsacrifice and the resistance of the Yugoslav people during the Liberation War. An important subject is the dissention between Tito and Stalin which had its germs in the prewar period. The author follows its development through the war and during the first years after the liberation until the Cominform resolution in June 1948
