  • Post-Communist Memory Culture and the Historiography of the Second World War and the Post-War Execution of Slovenian Collaborationists
    Croatian Political Science Review, Vol. 55, No. 2, 2018, pp. 33-49 33 Original research article Received: 21 August 2017 DOI: 10.20901/pm.55.2.02 Post-Communist Memory Culture and the Historiography of the Second World War and the Post-War Execution of Slovenian Collaborationists OTO LUTHAR Slovenian Academy of Sciences and Arts Summary This paper aims to summarize the transformations in contemporary Slove- nia’s post-socialist memorial landscape as well as to provide an analysis of the historiographical representation of The Second World War in the Slovenian territory. The analysis focuses on the works of both Slovenian professional and amateur historiographical production, that address historic developments which took place during the Second World War and in its immediate aftermath from the perspective of the post-war withdrawal of the members of various military units (and their families) that collaborated with the occupiers during the Second World War. Keywords: Slovenes, Partisans, Home Guards, Historiography, Memory Introduction The debate on post-communist/post-socialist historical interpretation has become an inseparable part of the new politics of the past across Eastern and Southeastern Europe. In Slovenia, the once-vivid historiographical debate on the nature of histo- rical explanation has been ever since largely overshadowed by new attempts to mo- nopolize historical interpretation. The discussion, that has been led from the 1980s onwards, has brought forward new forms of historical representation which have once again given way to the politicized reinterpretation of the most disputed parts of the Second World War and the subsequent time of socialism. Like in some other parts of post-socialist Europe, the past has become a “morality drama” and a “pas- 34 Luthar, O., Post-Communist Memory Culture and the Historiography of the Second World War..

Printed in Belgium II PORTRAIT OF THE REGIONS eurostat Foreword The accession discussions already underway with all ten of the Phare countries of Central and Eastern Europe have further boosted the demand for statistical data concerning them. 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.

  • “(Slovene) Medieval History” in the Book's Subtitle Should Be
    INTRODUCTION Th e phrase “(Slovene) medieval history” in the book’s subtitle should be understood in its geographical, not ethnic sense: it does not mean that the papers deal with the history of the Slovenes, but rather with historical developments and phenomena from the Middle Ages in the area that is today associated with (the Republic of) Slovenia. At the same time, we must be aware that even such a geographical defi nition can only be approximate and provisional: the contemporary frame- work of the state certainly should not limit our view or research when dealing with remote periods, when many political, linguistic, ethnical, and other borders diff ered essentially and the area had a diff erent struc- ture. Th e developments in the coastal towns of present-day Slovenia, for instance, cannot be adequately understood and described without knowledge and consideration of the conditions in the whole of Istria, the historical province that is today divided between Italy, Slovenia, and Croatia, or without giving due consideration to the roles played by the Byzantine, Frankish, or Venetian authorities in the peninsula. To quote another example, the situation is similar to that of Styria (or Carinthia, or Gorizia, etc.). Since 1918, that historical Land, formed in the 12th century, has been divided between two states, Austria and Slovenia (Yugoslavia) into Austrian and Slovene Styria, and the latter occupies about one third of the former Land. It is clear, then, that we can research and describe some chapters from its history only if we focus on Styria as a whole, regardless of its current borders; or, in other words, if we view it – and this is true of everything in history – as a variable historical category that cannot be treated outside the context of the period we are interested in.

  • 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.

  • Fertility Decline in the Southeastern Austrian Crown Land. Was There a Hajnal Line Or a Transitional Zone?
    Fertility Decline in the southeastern Austrian Crown land. Was there a Hajnal line or a transitional zone? Peter Teibenbacher Working Paper 2012-02 September 28, 2012 GRAZ OF OF Working Paper Series Faculty of Social and Economic Sciences Karl-Franzens-University Graz ISSN 2304-7658 sowi.uni-graz.at/de/forschen/working-paper-series/ [email protected] UNIVERSITY UNIVERSITY Fertility Decline in the southeastern Austrian Crown land. Was there a Hajnal line or a transitional zone? Peter Teibenbacher a,* Working Paper 2012-02 September 28, 2012 Abstract There is a substantial body of literature on the subject of fertility decline in Europe during the first demographic transition. Historical demographic research on this topic started in Western Europe, but, as a result of the discussion of the Hajnal line thesis, the decline in fertility has been more thoroughly explored for Eastern Europe (especially Poland and Hungary) than for areas in between, like Austria. This project and this working paper will seek to close this gap by addressing the question of whether the Austrian Crown lands in the southeast represented not just an administrative, but also a demographic border. Using aggregated data from the political districts, this paper will review the classic research about, as well as the methods and definitions of, fertility decline. Our results show that, even the Crown land level, which was used in the Princeton Fertility Project, is much too high for studying significant regional and systemic differences and patterns of fertility changes and decline. This process is interpreted as a result of economic and social modernization, which brought new challenges, as well as new options.

  • The Establishment and Development of Mediaeval Towns in Slovene Styria
    132 133 The Establishment and Development of Mediaeval Towns in Slovene Styria ince the very beginning towns as settlements with libera! inhabit­ Sants had played a different role in the administration of the coun­ try, its economic organization and communications infrastructure than the countryside with its feudal system of villages and ham­ lets. It was that difference that transformed the towns into entities that influenced their direct and often distant surroundings in ac­ cordance with the growing importance of fis cal economy. Some of the towns had stagnated in their development due to historical reasons of the Modern Age, yet none of them deteriorated. Since their urban development had regularly passed the stages from a borough village to a borough and finally a town (not always at the same location), it is almost impossible to trace them within their present appearances or cven ground plans (from plot structures). Thus the village predecessors of Maribor were the settlements around Garrison and Castle Squares (Vojašniški and Grajski Trg), and the borough predecessor was the settlement along Koroško Road. Pre-Hungarian Ptuj originated from hamlets near the bridge­ head in Vičava, on the Dominican plateau and around Provost Church, and post-Hungarian Ptuj from the borough settlement between Castle Hill and the river Drava. Slovenj Gradec origi­ nated from near-by Stari Trg ('old borough') with Gradec, Slovenska Bistrica from the village of Gradišče in the south-east­ ern part of the town, Brežice from the former adjacent village of Gradišče (later destroyed by the river Sava), Ormož from a Hun­ garian hamlet in the western part of the settlement rampart, and Celje from a bridgehead hamlet on the southern periphery of clas­ sical urban remnants.

Transport is also crucial to connect remote areas to central or urban areas. Yet, sustainable and flexible transport is among the greatest challenges for rural areas and rural–urban regions. Innovative transport concepts and approaches are urgently needed to foster sustainable and integrated regional development. This article addresses challenges of sustain- ability, accessibility, and connectivity through examining complementary systems to existing public transport, including demand-responsive transport and multimodal mobility. We draw upon case Citation: Bauchinger, L.; studies from the Metropolitan Area of Styria, Ljubljana Urban Region and rural Wales (GUSTmobil, Reichenberger, A.; REGIOtim, EURBAN, Bicikelj, Bwcabus, Grass Routes).

  • Making History in High Medieval Styria (1185-1202)—The Vorau Manuscript in Its Secular and Spiritual Context
    Making History in High Medieval Styria (1185-1202)—The Vorau Manuscript in its Secular and Spiritual Context by Jacob Wakelin A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Centre for Medieval Studies University of Toronto © Copyright by Jacob Wakelin 2018 Making History in High Medieval Styria (1185-1202)—The Vorau Manuscript in its Secular and Spiritual Context Jacob Wakelin Doctor of Philosophy Centre for Medieval Studies University of Toronto 2018 Abstract This dissertation focuses on the historical, social, and political context of the Vorau manuscript (Stiftsarchiv Vorau Codex 276), a collection of more than a dozen Middle High German poems from the late eleventh to the mid-twelfth century in addition to Otto of Freising’s Gesta Friderici I. imperatoris. When taken together, the manuscript’s disparate assortment of texts creates a roughly coherent history of the world from Genesis down to about 1160. Compiled by the Augustinian canons of the Styrian house towards the end of the twelfth century under the provost Bernard I, the manuscript references local historical events and individuals that were intimately tied to the region’s monastic houses.
