  • “We Have to Move Forward!” the Slovak Minority in the Kingdom of Yugoslavia in 1935–1939
    “WE HAVE TO MOVE FORWARD!” THE SLOVAK MINORITY IN THE KINGDOM OF YUGOSLAVIA IN 1935–1939 VLATKA DUGAČKI – MILAN SOVILJ DUGAČKI, Vlatka – SOVILJ, Milan. “We Have to Move Forward!” The slovak minority in the Kingdom of Yugoslavia in 1935–1939. Historický časopis, 2020, 68, 5, pp. 815–839, Bratislava. The paper “We Have to Move Forward!” focuses on presenting the or- ganisation and position of the Slovak minority in the Kingdom of Yugo- slavia, placing emphasis on the period between the elections for the Na- tional Assembly in 1935 and the establishment of the Banat of Croatia in 1939. Special attention was paid to the minority’s viewpoints on the Kingdom’s internal politics, as well as, externally, the conditions in the mother country, that is, Czechoslovakia and Slovakia after the first half of March 1939. The research required the use of archived materials from the Croatian State Archives in Zagreb and the Slovak National Archives in Bratislava, the Slovak minority newspapers, which, among other things, helped reconstruct the zeitgeist, and also the published sources and rele- vant literature. Although the Slovaks inhabited the entire territory of the Kingdom of Yugoslavia, it is important to mention that the representative area used for this research was the Danube Banat (mostly the area of the present day Vojvodina and Baranja), which was most densely populated by the Slovak minority. Keywords: Slovak minority. Kingdom of Yugoslavia. Banat of Croatia. Czechoslovakia. Slovak Republic. Interwar period. DOI: https://doi.org/10.31577/histcaso.2020.68.5.3 Introduction In the interwar period, the Yugoslav state represented a very heterogeneous for- mation with regard to its political, social and national structure.

    www.itcon.org - Journal of Information Technology in Construction - ISSN 1874-4753 FROM DATA TO 3D DIGITAL ARCHIVE: A GIS-BIM SPATIAL DATABASE FOR THE HISTORICAL CENTRE OF PAVIA (ITALY) SUBMITTED: October 2018 REVISED: August 2019 PUBLISHED: November 2019 at https://www.itcon.org/2019/24 EDITOR: Turk Ž. Cristina Cecchini, PhD Student, University of Pavia; [email protected] SUMMARY: Historical city centres are called to be witnesses of the past while supporting modern life. The competing needs for conservation and transformation involved in their development introduce a complex and multidisciplinary problem, which can be handled only by using proper tools. In this framework, the definition of shared digital archives able to collect and organize heterogenous data is believed to be the first step for the creation of an effective knowledge base, capable of activating analyses and supporting decision-making processes. The study presented here starts from the discussion of the requirements that an information system on historical centres should meet, and proposes a workflow based on the interoperability between GIS (Geographic Information System) and BIM (Building Information Modeling) aimed at the realization of a spatial relational database founded on CityGML. The OGC (Open Geospatial Consortium) standard was chosen in view of its capacity of representing the objects with their geometrical, topological and semantic properties, by specifying their relationships in a hierarchical environment. With the idea of introducing a repeatable model, the whole process starts from easily retrievable data on the city and makes use of standard data models, classification systems, programming languages and, as much as possible, of open software and contents.

The Danish National Archives hosted the event which focused on common challenges and different strategies for e-government, digital preservation and accessibility of cultural heritage. On 29 May – 1 June 2012, the Danish National Archives gathered the European elite of archivists and conservation experts in Copenhagen for a number of international meetings and conferences: "European Board of National Archivists (EBNA) Conference”, "Document Lifecycle Management (DLM) Conference" and "European Branch of the International Council of Archives (EURBICA) Conference", etc. The Danish National Archives hosted these events, which took place at the two addresses of the National Archives in Copenhagen and at the Royal Library. The main theme was: "Common challenges and different strategies in the digital society". The participants of EBNA meeting in Copenhagen, on May 29, 2012 (photo: the Danish National Archives) Common challenges in Europe But why focus on e-government, digital preservation and archival heritage at a European level? The answer is simple: In Denmark and throughout Europe we face many of the same developments and challenges as our institutions get more and 2 more digitalized, and some archives even receive more digital records than traditional paper records.
