  • The Place-Name Conflict in Carinthia (Austria): Symbolic Surface of Historical Burdens
    The place-name conflict in Carinthia (Austria): Symbolic surface of historical burdens Peter JORDAN* On the background of critical toponomastics, the paper highlights at first reasons, why the representation of place names in public space has a special meaning for linguistic minorities in principal and from a cultural-geographical point of view, before it enters into describing and explaining the minority situation in the Austrian federal province of Carinthia [Kärnten] and the reasons for toponymic conflict there. The Carinthian minority situation is up to the present day – albeit with declining intensity – marked by the fact that a Slavonic population present since the 6-7th centuries has later been socially overlayed by Bavarians. The newcomers, supported by political powers, formed the upper strata of the society including traders and craftsmen while the Slavonic population remained the rural ground layer. Up to the end of the Middle Ages an ethnically/linguistically mixed situation persisted. Assimilation towards local majorities resulted in an ethnic/linguistic patchwork. This shapes Carinthian culture in many respects also today. This is also reflected by the namescape, which is a mixture of Slavonic and German names all over the province. In general, however, linguistic assimilation towards German-speakers, the upper strata of the society, proceeded. Social ascend was only possible by using the German language – very similar to the situation of Slovenes under Venetian rule in what is today Italy, where Venetian, later Italian were the languages of the dominating group. By the end of the Middle Ages a distinct language boundary within Carinthia had developed – very much coinciding with ecclesiastical boundaries between Salzburg and Aquileia.

  • The Slovene Carinthians and the 1920 Plebiscite
    SPRAWY NARODOWOŚCIOWE Seria nowa / naTiOnaliTIES AFFairs New series, 48/2016: 85–105 DOI: 10.11649/sn.2016.006 Maria isabella reinhard “an isOlaTed Case”*: The slOvene CarinThians and The 1920 PlebisCiTe absTraCT The end of WWI saw the dissolution of the multiethnic Cen- tral European Empires and the formation of new states based on Woodrow Wilson’s concept of national self-determination. This article underlines the limitations of Wilsonian national self-determination, focusing on the Slovene Carinthians and the pro-Austrian result of the 1920 plebiscite. The outcome of the plebiscite exemplifies that minorities are motivated by more than solely ethno-linguistic reasons when deciding what state to belong to. Even though other factors existed, the key motivations for Slovene Carinthians to remain with Austria were of economic and political nature. It will be con- tended that the importance of the centuries long accultura- tion of Slovene Carinthians to Austria brought them closer to Austria than to the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes. Additionally the phrasing of the plebiscite made Slovene Car- inthians’ decision a question of state preference rather than ethno-linguistic identity. Moreover, the unpleasant occupation of parts of Carinthia by the troops of the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats, and Slovenes and the higher effectiveness of Austri- an propaganda played a key role in the vote of many Slovene Carinthians. Lastly, the majority of Slovene Carinthians being farmers, reliant on Austrian trade opportunities, swayed them ............................... toward a pro-Austrian vote. Thus, the Carinthian plebiscite of Maria isabella reinhard 1920 builds a strong case against the assumption that ethno- University of St Andrews, St.

At the same time, a growing appreciation of regional issues has raised interest in regional differences in each of these countries. This volume of the “Portrait of the Regions” series responds to this need and follows on in a tradition which has seen four volumes devoted to the current Member States, a fifth to Hungary, a sixth volume dedicated to the Czech Republic and Poland, a seventh to the Slovak Republic and the most recent volume covering the Baltic States, Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania. Examining the 12 statistical regions of Slovenia, this ninth volume in the series has an almost identical structure to Volume 8, itself very similar to earlier publications.

    THE BROWN BEAR IN CARINTHIA:HISTORY AND STATUS IN SOUTHERN AUSTRIA BERNHARD GUTLEB, World Wide Fund For Nature Austria-Bear Project Carinthia, P.O. Box 1, A-9545 Radenthein, Austria Abstract: Places that are named after bears are spread over the whole of Carinthiaand the rest of Austria. Although not all of these names derive directly from a former presence of brown bears (Ursus arctos), other historical data such as hunting statistics and bone collections confirm that there were bears living in all areas of Austria, including Carinthia. The brown bear in Carinthiahas not been extirpated and continues to survive. Bears continue to travel to Carinthiaalong a 300-km corridorfrom the bear range of Slovenia and Croatia. Presently there are an estimated 12 bears in Carinthiaand the surroundingarea. They do not seem to depend on domestic livestock or beehives, but prefer naturalfoods. The amount of damage caused by bears is not high, averaging approximately$5,000/year during 1990-95. Reproduction was observed 3 times from 1989 to 1995 (2 cubs in 1989, 1 in 1990, 1 in 1995). If these bears are not cut off from the source populationin Slovenia and Croatia and if negative public attitude present in other Austrian bear areas (2 bears were shot in 1994) does not spread to Carinthia,there is a realistic chance for the survival of this small bear population. There is an urgent need for a bear managementplan for all areas of Austrian bear range. Ursus 10:75-79 Key words: Austria, Carinthia,European brown bear, history, status, Ursus arctos.

  • UPF Peace Road 2020 in Carinthia, Austria and Koroska, Slovenia
    UPF Peace Road 2020 in Carinthia, Austria and Koroska, Slovenia Alfred Waldmann and Kristina Bakovnik September 12, 2020 St. Paul, Austria -- Three town mayors joined a Peace Road event, a project of UPF, connecting two neighboring regions, Carinthia in Austria and Koroška in Slovenia. The two regions were one country during the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy but were divided after World War I. A bitter dispute concerned territory as well as Slavic and German ethnicities. After a plebiscite in 1920 -- this year marks its 100th anniversary -- political borders were pinned down but internal disputes and resentments remained. Developments during and after World War II led to even higher tensions. Koroška, the Slovenian name of this region, became part of communist Yugoslavia, and Carinthia (Kärnten) became part of the democratic Austrian Republic. Despite these developments, the people on both sides remained connected internally, and social relationships kept going to a certain extent. In 1991, after its 10-day war of independence, Slovenia became an independent state and in 2004 joined the European Union. Some interesting facts concerning the city of Slovenj Gradec: In 1989, it was accepted as the only Slovenian city in the International Association of Peace Messenger Cities initiated by the United Nations. Now Tilen Klugler, the mayor, has a leading, active role as the secretary general of the International Association of Peace Messenger Cities. On the day of the Peace Road 2020 event, he also was awarded an Ambassador for Peace certificate by UPF. When the day of the event arrived, September 12, it turned out that three mayors were among the approximately 70 participants: the current mayor of the Austrian town of St.

  • LDL: Faunas: Slovenia
    ; Home Bibliography Species Genera Faunas Directory Metakey Keys Downloads LDL > Faunas > Slovenia > Introduction Neuropterida of Slovenia (NidaSI) Introduction The Neuropterida is a small superorder of holometabolous insects that contains ca. 6,500 extant species and is distributed worldwide. In Slovenia, neuropterid insects are relatively well investigated. The Slovenian name for the Neuropterida – lacewings (in a broad sense) is mrežekrilci (v širšem smislu) (for Slovenian names of lacewing orders and families see Devetak 2003). Geographical and Geopolitical Divisions of Slovenia From a zoological point of view Slovenia is a very interesting part of Central Europe (sometimes placed in Southeastern Europe). Despite the fact that it is a small country, covering only 20,273 square kilometers, it is known for its diversity of species. The great biodiversity of the country is attributable to its varied climate, topography, and vegetation, all of which promote species richness. Four of the major geographic regions of Europe meet in Slovenia: the Mediterranean, the Alps, the Dinarides, and the Pannonian. The country is mostly mountainous, with a prevailing continental climate. The coastal region has a sub-Mediterranean climate, and in the high mountains an Alpine climate dominates. In 2000 Slovenia was divided into 12 statistical regions (Figure 1), which replaced the traditional regions into which the country was formerly divided. The statistical regions are entities created primarily for legal and statistical purposes (Table 1). They are used in the Neuropterida of Slovenia fauna project because they represent Figure 1. Statistical regions of Slovenia. the current de facto first- order geopolitical subdivisions of Slovenia. In many zoological studies, a five-region zoogeographic division of Slovenia – Submediterranean, Dinaric, Alpine, Prealpine, and Subpannonian – is used (e.g., Carnelutti 1992).

Origins, transition and current practice Since the first Slavs settled in Carinthia in the 6th century, Slovene denominations and names in Carinthia have been constantly changing and adapting to historical developments. Slavic denominations are important and well preserved cultural assets and have remained a natural part of everyday life in Carinthia. Due to social change – particularly the very strong processes of assimilation that were taking place during the 20th century – these cultural assets are being kept alive in their natural surrounding only by a small group of people.

  • Slovenia As an Outpost of Th~ Third Reich
    SLOVENIA AS AN OUTPOST OF TH~ THIRD REICH By HELGA HORIAK HARRIMAN 1\ Bachelor of Arts Wells College Aurora, New York 1952 Submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate College of the Oklahoma State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS May, 1969 STATE UNIVERSITY LIBRARY SEP 29 1969 SLOVENIA AS AN OUTPOST OF THE THIRD REICH Thesis Approved: Dean of the Graduate College ii PREFACE This study is concerned primarily with the Nazi occupation of Northern Yugoslavia during 1941 and 1942. Hitler's plan for converting Slovenia into a germanized frontier zone of the Third Reich is assessed in the light of Slovene history, most particularly since 1918. The evidence for the Nazi resettlement program designed to achieve Hitler's goal came from manuscript documents, which were written largely by the SS officers in charge of population manipulation. I wish to express appreciation to members of my advisory committee t from the Department of History at Oklahoma State University who gave helpful criticism in the preparation of the text. Professor Douglas Hale served as committee chairman and offered valuable advice concern- ing the study from its inception to its conclusion. Professor George Jewsbury imparted to its development his own keen understanding of Eastern Europe. To Professors John Sylvester and Charles Dollar, who read the study in its final form, I am also indebted. In addition, I wish to thank my father, Dr. E. A. V. Horiak, for his insightful comments. Dr. Joseph Suhadolc of the Department of For- eign Languages at Northern Illinois University gave freely of his time in reviewing the text.
