At the very beginning of this period, we did not exactly have it easy. When just before Christmas in 2002 I took over responsibility for the administration and future development of our city, Bratislava was a quarter of a billion in debt, which was due to be settled in the sum- mer of 2003, but with only one quarter of this amount available to cover it. In such an atmosphere it was not exactly the best of times to think about development constructions.

    About the author: Prof. Rastislava STOLIČNÁ – rod. MIKOLAJOVÁ, PhD. She studied ethnology at the Faculty of Philosophy Comenius University in Bratislava. She is a senior researcher at the Institute of Ethnology of the Slovak Academy of Sciences and a visiting professor at the Silesian University in Poland. She belongs to the generation of researches who elaborated the fundamental works of Slovak ethnology: “Ethnographic Atlas of Slovakia” (1990), “Encyclopedia of Folk Culture of Slovakia I. II.” (1995) and the monograph “Slovakia – European Contexts of Folk Culture (1997, 2007 in English). She specializes in the study of the culinary culture of Slovaks. She has publishes several books, dozens of scientific papers and popular articles and was the author of the exhibition in the Slovak National Museum “Tastes and Scents of Slovakia” (2007) The National Cuisine of Slovaks The term national cuisine of Slovaks means, first of all, the culinary culture of people living in the countryside and small towns who considered themselves to be of the Slovak ethnicity, as since the Middle Ages larger cities of Slovakia were populated mostly by Germans, Hungarians and Jews whose cuisines differed and originated in a different social and cultural context. In the 19th century, the culinary cultures of the rural and urban worlds started to grow closer due to the development of trade, the first phase of modernization of housing and changes in kitchen equipment. Many people from the country started to work in factories and in cities. Exchange of information was more intense and first cookbooks were published. In spite of these facts, up to these days the Slovak cuisine has not lost its unique rural character by which it differs from the cuisines of neighboring countries.

At the same time, however, it draws on a rich and famous tradition reaching back as many as two thousand years. Due to this as well, Bratislava has nearly the same historical foundation as several other major cities of Europe. Today, it is a CITY OF BRATISLAVA : INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS : INTERNATIONAL CITY OF BRATISLAVA member of a mature family of 27 metropolises of the new, expanded Europe and, jointly with its neig- hbours, contributes to creating a metropolitan Euroregion which has all the prerequisites to become one of the most dynamic areas of European cooperation and development within the next 15 to 20 years.

    Young People in Bratislava and Prague: National and Supra-National Identities1 Ladislav Macháček2 Institute for Sociology Slovak Academy of Sciences, Bratislava Centre for European and Regional Youth Studies Faculty of Arts UCM in Trnava Young People in Bratislava and Prague: National and Supra-National Identities The split of Czechoslovakia is a challenge for politicians and sociologists even after a decade. An answer is sought to the question of whether the actions of the political elite were justified in the light of the commencement of European integration and the complicated split of the big federations (Yugoslavia and Soviet Union) with the consequences for peace and European stability. An answer is sought to the question of whether the Slovak or Czech public would support or refuse their decision if they had been given a referendum on the matter. In 2003, Slovakia, along with the Czech Republic, Poland, Hungary, Slovenia, Estonia and Malta, successfully concluded pre- accession negotiations for EU membership (guarantee of implementing the standards of democratic governance), which officially begins on May 1st 2004. Being more enthusiastic for the newly independent Slovak Republic does not necessarily translate itself into lesser enthusiasm about Europe and European Union. However, young people from the Bratislava consider being future EU citizens as more important than young people from the Prague The young citizens of Bratislava have much greater expectations in Slovakia’s EU membership at the level of “being” in Europe than “having” something from Europe.
