Člani Katedre za obramboslovje Fakultete za družbene vede smo lani sklenili na ta način obeležiti pomemben jubi- lej. Letos bo namreč preteklo trideset let od ustanovitve univerzitetnega študija obramboslovja na Slovenskem. Ta redni študij je bil tedaj kot nova smer umeščen v program Fakultete za sociologijo, politične vede in novinarstvo Univerze v Ljubljani. Imel je dolg naslov – »Študij splošne ljudske obrambe in družbene samozaščite (SLO in DS)«, kar je izhajalo iz tedanjega uradnega jugoslovanskega izrazja. Podlaga za ustanovitev štu- dijev SLO in DS je bil t. i. medrepubliški dogovor v obliki pisnega spora- zuma med Zveznim sekretariatom za ljudsko obrambo in sekretariati za izobraževanje petih tedanjih jugoslovanskih republikah. Eden od predvi- denih petih študijev naj bi bil v Sloveniji, ki jo je ob podpisu sporazuma v Beogradu zastopala tedanja republiška sekretarka E. Ulrich – Atena. Ustanovitev študijev SLO in DS je logično sledila procesu uveljavljanja nove obrambne doktrine SFRJ v letih 1968–1970. Izredno obsežen obrambni sistem, ki so ga tedaj začeli graditi, je med drugim zahteval veliko civilnih obrambnih uradnikov in učiteljev obrambne vzgoje v sred- njih šolah, upokojeni oficirji JLA pa teh potreb niso mogli pokriti ne koli- činsko in še manj kakovostno. Marsikdo med njimi ni imel ustreznih pedagoških sposobnosti in smisla za predavateljski poklic. Ko je to posta- lo jasno, je vodstvo JLA odklonilo, da bi akademije JLA prevzele skrb za šolanje civilnih obrambnih strokovnjakov. Tega se je vojaški vrh verjetno branil tako iz denarnih kakor tudi iz drugih, politično obarvanih razlo- gov. Gojence vojaških akademij je najbrž želel bolje obvarovati pred »kvarnimi« vplivi civilnega okolja (v tedanji terminologiji: pred meščan- sko miselnostjo, liberalizmom, nacionalizmom, klerikalizmom in dogma- tizmom). Ustanovitev petih študijev je imela širšo podlago v novi zvezni ustavi iz l. 1974, ki je odpravila monopol JLA na obrambnem področju in vpelja- la dvodelne oborožene sile SFRJ (JLA in Teritorialna obramba). Armadni vrh je potem, ko se je že prilagodil tem spremembam (ki pa jih ni maral), pobudo za ustanovitev študijev SLO in DS na civilnih univerzah dal sam. Vlogo pobudnika in botra te nove dejavnosti je poskušal izrabiti tudi za to, da bi vpeljal svoj, kolikor se da, neposreden nadzor nad temi študiji. Hkrati je taka umestitev terjala sorazmerno majhne odhodke iz zveznega ministrstva. 6 XSODOBNO VOJAŠTVO IN DRUŽBAX Predstavniki JLA so si med pogajanji z republikami prizadevali doseči identične programe pri vojaškostrokovnih predmetih (z aktivnimi oficirji JLA kot izvajalci), zagotoviti ideološko poenotenje izvedbe, doseči največ- jo možno usklajenost in pretežno naravoslovno-tehnično naravnanost pri nevojaških predmetih. Tako naj bi v obrambnoizobraževalni sferi že v kali zatrli meščanski liberalizem in republiški separatizem. Glavno breme novih programov po prostorski, kadrovski in gmotni plati pa so morale prevzeti republike. Namera vodstva JLA, da tesno nadzoruje us- posabljanje civilnih obramboslovcev, ne da bi sama plačala največji del stroškov, ki so pri tem nastajali, se nazadnje ni izšla. To je postalo najbolj jasno v Sloveniji ob razpadanju jugoslovanske države. Novoustanovljeni obramboslovni študiji so odsevali protislovno nara- vo sistema SLO in DS – njegovo demokratično frazeologijo in hkrati vpetost v avtoritarni enostrankarski sistem. Uvedba obramboslovnega študija tudi v slovenščini in v Sloveniji pa se je dobro ujemala z nacional- noemancipacijskimi težnjami pri nas, saj je šlo za področje, ki je bilo Slo- vencem dolgo odtujeno. Med večkrat težavnimi pogovori s predstavniki JLA (tudi z načelnikom 4. uprave JLA, tedaj generalpodpolkovnikom Veljkom Kadijevićem, kasnejšim zveznim sekretarjem za ljudsko obram- bo) smo se slovenski pogajalci v svojih stališčih opirali na konfederalne prvine v novi zvezni ustavi SFRJ. Te so bile še posebej izrazite na področ- ju šolstva. Zahvaljujoč temu in avtonomiji naše univerze, nam je uspelo izposlovati to, da je dobil slovenski študij v primerjavi s študijem obram- boslovja drugod po Jugoslaviji najzahtevnejši družboslovni program, čeprav je bil po številu študentov najmanjši. Kot najbolj civilen po duhu, najbolj mednarodno odprt in dejaven ter najmanj ideologiziran in režim- sko apologetski med petimi študiji je postal naš oddelek v nekaterih pomembnih ozirih nasprotje beograjski fakulteti za SLO in DS in »črna ovca« v očeh vojaškega vrha JLA. Svoj odnos do našega študija je tedanji zvezni obrambni minister admiral Branko Mamula nazorno izrazil tako, da je onemogočil izvedbo mednarodnega simpozija, za katerega smo predlagali, da bi se organiziral v Sloveniji, in sicer jeseni l. 1985, ob 10. obletnici obstoja obramboslovnega študija. Podpisu sporazuma je sledila odločitev republiškega sekretariata za vzgojo in izobraževanje l. 1974, da bo slovenski študij SLO in DS umeš- čen na Fakulteti za sociologijo, politične vede in novinarstvo (FSPN) v Ljubljani. Ta odločitev je jasno odsevala tedanje stanje v naši republiki. Mariborsko visokošolsko središče so imeli tedaj za kadrovsko in tudi sicer prešibko za izvršitev te zahtevne naloge. Med članicami Univerze v Ljubljani pa je za to novost pokazal zanimanje le tedanji dekan FSPN prof. dr. V. Benko. Tudi na tej fakulteti njegova stališča niso uživala splo- šne podpore v učiteljskem zboru. Prihodu obramboslovnega študija so glasno ugovarjali posamezni profesorji, med njimi tudi nekateri kasnejši dekani. Uvedba tega študija naj bi namreč, po njihovi razlagi, grozila z XUVODX 7 militarizacijo fakultete in z njenim intelektualnim razvrednotenjem. Oba strahova sta se kasneje pokazala kot neutemeljena. V tridesetih letih od ustanovitve l. 1975 je naš obramboslovni študij prehodil dolgo pot, na kateri nam pogosto ni bilo postlano z rožicami. Otvoritev študija je bila v eni izmed manjših predavalnic tedanje FSPN. Do zadnjega nismo vedeli, ali se bo kdo izmed visokih republiških urad- nikov tega dogodka sploh udeležil. S svojimi dejavnostmi smo začeli v eni sobi – v mojem kabinetu, ki je postal tudi učiteljska zbornica. Učne knjige smo imeli odložene na hodniku in pod stopnicami stare stavbe FSPN. V začetnem obdobju smo morali prebroditi podcenjevanje, odpo- re, pomanjkanje učilnic, kabinetov, denarja, ustreznih akademskih kadrov in literature ter marsikatero drugo težavo. Od tedaj je študij moč- no strokovno in pedagoško napredoval, razvil je svoje kadre, nastala je obširna strokovna literatura in s pomočjo državnih organov so bili

  • Monuments, Mediatisation and Memory Politics. the Slovenian
    chapter 1 Monuments, Mediatisation and Monuments, Mediatisation and Memory Politics. Memory Politics The Slovenian Post-socialist Memorial Landscape in Transit Oto Luthar (T)he only way that history could work is if we continue to think of it precisely as history, rather than as a policy of memory. Timothy Snyder Introduction As the (re)interpretation of the Second World War on Slovenian territory re- mains the focal point of the post-1991 Slovenian politics of the past, its mediati- sation, and the mediatisation of the socialist period, is continually perceived as the greatest “division in the Slovenian nation.”1 In this vein, the Slovenian nation is portrayed as a bipolar political entity or society in which, after a brief interlude of harmonious unity during the independence process, a cultural struggle between liberals and conservatives has reignited. One characteristic of such an interpretation is its deliberate disregard of historical analyses and its dismissal of the influential role played by the media and popular historiog- raphy. The latter has not only overshadowed historical research on the Second World War, but it has started to define national history in general, as well as having an influence on everyday political decisions: be they in regard to the role of women, migrants, homosexuals, or cultural heritage. Part of the populist understanding of the past also includes changes in the memorial landscape, which I previously brought to the fore in one of my first articles on this topic.2 Ever since then, the interpretation of the developments that unfolded in Slovenia during the Second World War has undergone radical 1 The term was first used by Tamara Griesser Pečar, the author of the following book with a similar title: Razdvojeni narod.

  • La Situazione Militare Sul Campo
    3 La situazione militare sul campo Rispetto al corso delle vicende belliche nel resto d’Italia, dopo l’8 settembre ‘43 nelle regioni del Nord Est (Friuli, Venezia Giulia Fiume, Istria e Dalmazia) gli avvenimenti seguono un corso completamente diverso, che identificano una “storia locale” purtroppo quasi mai riportata nei libri scolastici, e sconosciuta ai più. Con l’”Operazione Alarico” i tedeschi , con qualche piccolo RSI apporto militare della neonata Repubblica Sociale, andavano ad attestarsi su una linea di difesa Linea Gustav chiamata “Linea Gustav”, imperniata su Montecassino, riuscendo a fermare l’avanzata anglo-americana verso nord: si trattava di uno schieramento ben definito. Nelle terre orientali , invece, si fronteggiavano varie formazioni militari , schierate sui fronti opposti ma anche in contrasto fra loro e con alleanze incrociate Tedeschi della Wehrmacht XIIArmata Erano alleati di italiani e ustasha croati, nemici di serbi cetnici (vedi oltre) . Dopo l’8 settembre divennero nemici degli italiani, ma collaboranti con i cetnici serbi in chiave anticomunista. Italiani del Regio Esercito L'equipaggiamento di ben 10 divisioni italiane abbandonate in Yugoslavia dopo l’8 Settembre fu acquisito dalle formazioni partigiane comuniste. Inoltre alcuni militari italiani vi confluirono, proseguendo la guerra contro i tedeschi. Belagardisti sloveni “Guardie Bianche” Anticomunisti, collaborazionisti con l’amministrazione italiana Fascisti e collaborazionisti della Bela Garda porta no un prigioniero al luogo della fucilazione Domobrancij Sloveni Milizia anticomunista filonazista slovena (dopo l’8 Settembre ‘43) Domobranci (scritto, seguendo la grafia italiana, anche Domobranzi ) fu la denominazione collettiva degli appartenenti alla Slovensko domobranstvo (Difesa territoriale slovena), formazione anticomunista e collaborazionista di miliziani prevalentemente volontari, costituitasi in Slovenia nel settembre 1943, per contrastare la Resistenza antifascista slovena.

  • Dear Colleagues, Dear Recipients of This Message, Please Find Enclosed
    Dear colleagues, dear recipients of this message, Please find enclosed the English text prepared based on two constitutional complaints lodged against the judgement of the Supreme Court of the Republic of Slovenia. This judgment set aside the judgment pronounced at the Slovenian “Nuremberg Trial” in 1946 against the most notorious Slovenian collaborationist leader and antisemite, thus violating human dignity and other complainants’ rights. The complaints filed are practically identical. Therefore, the translation only brings the first one, to which the complainants who have filed the second one is added. The constitutional complaints were prepared by Dr Miha Hafner and the undersigned, in cooperation with Dr Ljubo Bavcon. The translation was done by Želja Cilenšek Bončina and Irena Šumi. Added to the complaint are two introductory notes by Prof. Dr Ljubo Bavcon and the undersigned that were penned specifically for the press conference held at the occasion of lodging of the complaints. The translation will be sent to complainant organizations (the Associations of the National Liberation Movement of Slovenia; the Jewish Community of Slovenia; the City Municipality of Ljubljana), to individual complainants and both attorneys who have filed the constitutional complaints, as well as to our colleagues and friends abroad – in particular to those who have expressed their indignation with setting aside of the judgment against General Leon Rupnik. I am kindly asking you, in the name, and on behalf of the complainants, to use all the channels at your disposal including posting on the web and publishing in the media to draw attention to the setting aside of the judgment, and to the fact that two extensive, well-substantiated complaints have been filed with the Constitutional Court.

  • Racial Legislation, Propaganda and Measures in the Kingdom of Yugoslavia and in the German, Italian and Hungarian Occupational Zones in Slovenia During the WW II1
    Racial legislation, propaganda and measures in the Kingdom of Yugoslavia and in the German, Italian and Hungarian occupational zones in Slovenia during the WW II1 Yugoslav state was created in the wake of World War I from parts of the former Austro- Hungarian monarchy and of some lands that were in the 19th Century part of the Ottoman Empire. In 1929 King Alexander suspended the constitution and the parliament and proclaimed a royal dictatorship. In 1934 Croatian and Macedonian extremists organized the King’s assassination in Marseille. Polarized country with huge nationalistic quarrels and authoritarian regimes in the second half of the thirties was more and more under the influence of Fascist Italy and Nazi Germany. Anti-Semite legislation was introduced, Concentration camp in Bileća for the opponents of the regime established and Parliament was dissolved at the end of thirties. The war in Yugoslavia began on April 6th 1941 with bombing Belgrade. Yugoslavia was quickly defeated, surrendering in Belgrade on April 17. The government fled into exile. When the Axis powers in April 1941 invaded Yugoslavia, Ustasha regime seized power in Croatia and “Independent Croatian State” under German and Italian control was set up. Other parts of Yugoslavia were divided among occupiers. In Slovenia all of three occupying forces wanted to include the occupied territories into their respective states permanently, extending their administration to the Slovenian territory and including it into their social order.

  • Participation, Role and Position of Slovenian Women in the World War II Resistance Movement
    «Qualestoria» n. 2, dicembre 2015 Participation, Role and Position of Slovenian Women in the World War II Resistance Movement di Vida Deželak Barič Abstract ‒ Participation, Role and Position of Slovenian Women in the World War II Resistance Movement The following discussion focuses on the mass participation of women in the resistance move- ment during the occupation of Slovenia (1941-1945) and compares it with the women’s position in the anti-communist and collaborationist political camp in the context of the civil war, which took place in certain areas of Slovenian territory during the occupation. It analyses the aspects of the liberation struggle activities which women took part in. These activities included the activist fieldwork in the context of various organisations (Liberation Front of the Slovenian Nation, Slovenian Anti-fascist Women’s Association – a special women’s organisation), inclu- sion of women in the Partisan armed formations, intelligence operations, as well as cultural and educational activities. The discussion underlines the monopoly of the Communist Party, the transmissive role of the resistance organisation in the eyes of the communists, problems with the implementation of the equal position of women in the men’s world, as well as fatalities among women. Key words: Slovenia, resistance, women, partisan women, emancipation Parole chiave: Slovenia, resistenza, donne, donne partigiane, emancipazione The resistance and politicisation of women World War II had a substantial impact on the traditional gender roles in Slovenia. Under the influence of the dramatic situation brought about by the occupation in April 1941 and the functioning of the ideological mechanisms, at that time women in fact took a large step and entered the public space which had until then been in the almost exclu­ sive domain of the male half of the society ­ however, this does not mean they were not present in the public sphere.

  • Arso Jovanović – an Erased Biography
    bALCANICA POSNANIENSIA xxV poznań 2018 Arso JovAnović – An erAsed biogrAphy Vl a t k a Vu k e l i ć , Vladimir Šu m a n o V i ć AbsTrACT. Arso Jovanović – an erased biography. The article presents a basic overview of the war record of the chief of the supreme staff of the partisan army Arso Jovanović. Jovanović’s war biography is described in relation to three social groups in which he had oper- ated. The first social group was the piper clan, or the local Montenegrin context in which he was born and grew up. The other social group was the leadership of the Communist party of yugoslavia (KpJ) with which he coop- erated during the war. The third social group was the circle of Montenegrin generals of the yugoslav army (JA) which Jovanović belonged to until his unexplained death in the summer of 1948. This paper describes how all these groups were interlinked through Jovanović, how they affected each other creating the preconditions for the events of World War ii and the post-war period in yugoslavia.

  • The Roman Catholic Church and Clergy in the Nazi-Fascist Era on Slovenian Soil
    Athens Journal of History - Volume 4, Issue 3 – Pages 227-252 The Roman Catholic Church and Clergy in the Nazi-Fascist Era on Slovenian Soil By Zorica Petrović The revisionism of the role the Catholic Church and collaborators had during World War II has been quite a typical approach in Slovenia, as one of the post-transition countries of the former Yugoslavia. With their own interpretation of the causes and consequences of pre-war, wartime and post-war events, the role of the Slovenian Home Guard and the Catholic clergy has been deliberately portrayed for years, as one of naivety and good intentions in the name of home, God, and religion. In relation to that, the aim of this paper is to point out some crucial facts, which are well documented and supported by recorded evidence. An insight into socio-political developments in the Slovenian territory, and the ideological background that conditioned the attitude of the official Church authorities towards representatives of the occupier is, therefore, essential. Also, the paper provides a closer look at the clergy’s attitude towards occupying forces and the National Liberation Forces in Slovenian regions,occupied by both the German and Italian agressor, given the time, space and social conditions. The conclusion addresses not only the process of reconciliation, but also the possibility of an alternative for a far more credible moral stance of the Church, in its attempt to be a key element of nation and state sovereignty in the eyes of the people and history in the long run. Introduction This paper discusses the role of the Slovenian Catholic church during World War II within all of its variables.

    POJMOVNIK ANTIFAŠISTIČKE BORBE II Grupa autora Pojmovnik antifašističke borbe II grupa autora Edicija Škole antifašizma Urednik dr Milovan Pisarri Autori dr Olga Manojlović Pintar, dr Sanja Petrović Todosijević, dr Srđan Milošević, dr Aleksandar Miletić, dr Milovan Pisarri Predgovor Pred čitaocima se nalazi nastavak Pojmovnika antifašističke borbe koji je Savez antifašista Srbije objavio 2017. godine u okviru projekta „Škola antifašizma”. Potreba da se i dalje razrađuje spisak osnovnih pojmova vezanih za antifašističku borbu u Srbiji, Jugoslaviji i Evropi, nastala je usled opšte kofuzije stvorene revizionizmom i novim naučnim, tendecioznim i politički motivisanim tumačenjima prošlosti. U doba kada neofašizam velikom brzinom zauzima sve više prostora u mnogim evropskim zemljama, te se i sami antifašistički temelji starog kontinenta našli su se pod jakim udarom rasizma, mržnje, nasilja, ekstremne eksploatacije radne snage, nacionalizma. Savez antifašista Srbije želi u tom smislu da ponudi jedan mali alat koristan u prepoznavanju nastanka, a naročito posledica fašizma i nacizma, kao i organizovanih načina borbe koji su se u istoriji pokazali kao jedino rešenje za pobedu nad „ideologijom zla”. Takođe, uzeti su u obzir određeni opšti pojmovi koje se danas najčešće zloupotrebljavaju sa ciljem izgradnje nove, veštačke prošlosti, kao i oni pojmovi vezani za događaje ili fenomene koji su i sa aspekta samog antifašizma bili ideološki problematični. Posebna pažnja, kao i u prvom pojmovniku, posvećena je ličnostima koje su, manje ili više poznate,

A special focus will be placed on the adoption of ideological constructions of the Organization of Yugoslav Nationalists and contemporary French veteran movements. The paper also sheds light on the complex relations between AFY, the 6 January regime and contemporary, ideologically related political groups, and on the role of ideological conceptions of AFY in the creation of the ideology of the Yugoslav National Movement Zbor. Keywords: Association of Fighters of Yugoslavia, Organization of Yugoslav Nationalists, integrationist Yugoslavism, clericalism, Yugoslav National Movement (YNM) Zbor. pon its inception in 1929 the Association of Fighters of Yugoslavia (AFY, Serbian BOJ) was at first sight one of many veteran/patriotic non-political organizations U established after the 6 January Manifesto in order to back the monarchical dictatorship regime and ensure support among the wider population. In contrast to the majority of these organizations, during its existence (1929–1935) and relying on the membership and ideological legacy of the Organization of Yugoslav Nationalists (OYN, Serbian ORJUNA), AFY managed to build a strong organizational structure, broaden its membership base and shape, to a greater or lesser extent, its ideological construct, connect itself with ideologically similar political groups and thus expand its influence outside the borders of the Drava Banovina (Slovenia).

The reinterpretation of the events of World War II, the renewed ex­ ploration of the relationship between resistance movements and collabora­ tion units, along with the need to critically analyze post-war revolutionary changes; all these factors not only force us to reevaluate neo-Marxist and positivist conceptual models but also call for a new understanding of our attitude toward the historical truth. 1 I would like to thank friends and collègues for their advice and coments on this article; in particular Ericajohnson and Aleš Debeljak for their translation and detailed readings. I would also like to thank Tomaž Mastnak who has been constructively critical.
