Academic and theoretical foundations of Slovenian emigration research were set at the University of Ljubljana in the 1930s. In the 1960s, more systematic, complex and multi-disciplinary Slovenian emigration research began to develop. As part of this process, Slovenian Migration Institute was established in 1982. The book was conceived upon the 30th anniversary of the Institute's affiliation to ZRC SAZU. Besides the Institute's researchers, some other scholars were invited to contribute chapters, especially members of younger generations who tend to test most up-to-date research approaches and treat their themes from new or under-researched angles.The central part of the book is thus thematically divided into three sections: “Selected aspects of Slovenian emigration research”, “Approaches, methods, categorisation”, and “Topical issues”. With such thematic structure and contents, the book is primarily aimed at touching upon some new questions concerning the present state and future development of Slovenian emigration research, taking into account contemporary international trends in migration studies as well as some specificities pertaining to Slovenian emigration. Zametki znanstvenega preučevanja slovenskega izseljevanja segajo v čas pred prvo svetovno vojno, ko je pojav dosegel svoj zgodovinski višek. V tridesetih letih 20. stoletja je preučevanje izseljenske tematike dobilo akademsko podlago in teoretično utemeljitev v okviru ljubljanske univerze. Sistematično raziskovanje slovenskega izseljenstva se je intenzivneje razvijalo od šestdesetih let dalje, se tematsko razvejalo in postalo področje sodelovanja raznih znanstvenih disciplin. V tem procesu je v osemdesetih letih zaživel tudi današnji Inštitut za slovensko izseljenstvo in migracije ZRC SAZU. K sodelovanju pri knjigi, ki prihaja med bralce ob jubileju Inštituta, so bili poleg njegovih članov povabljeni še nekateri drugi raziskovalci migracij, posebno pripadniki mlajših generacij, ki poglabljajo in razširjajo tradicionalne raziskovalne vsebine, jih obravnavajo z novih zornih kotov in pri tem preizkušajo nove raziskovalne pristope. Publikacija tako prinaša pregled dosedanjega dela Inštituta na področju raziskovanja slovenskega izseljenstva ter izbor prispevkov o nekaterih tematikah in vprašanjih, ki so danes v ospredju zanimanj preučevalcev slovenskih migracij.

Childhood in Slovenian emigration context is one of the least researched topics within Slovenian migration studies. The book ('Slovenian emigration in the light of children’s experience') tries to shed light upon it from the angles of different disciplines. Drawing on various definitions of children and categories of children in connection with migration, presented in the first chapter, the authors were mainly interested in those aspects that have been more or less neglected in the past. The second part of the book thus examines childhood in emigration context as it can be observed in the literary works and various websites created by Slovenian emigrants and their descendants. The third part of the book focuses on some specific migrant situations. The authors of these chapters have examined some intimate aspects of migrant experience of children of the so-called Alexandrian Women, children involved in forced migration during the Second World War, and children of diplomats. The fourth part of the book discusses the Yugoslav public care for the children in Slovenian diaspora between the World Wars, migration of children within the Yugoslav area, and the care for the children of Slovenian descent in Bosnia and Herzegovina in terms of their learning and preservation of Slovenian language. Otroštvo v slovenskem izseljenstvu sodi med manj raziskane izseljenske teme. Knjiga ga poskuša osvetliti z zornih kotov različnih znanstvenih disciplin. Izhajajoč iz mnogovrstnosti zgodovinskih in kulturoloških definicij otrok ter kategorij otrok v izseljenstvu, predstavljenih v prvem, uvodnem delu knjige, so avtorje zanimala predvsem tista vprašanja, ki se jih dosedanje študije izrazito površno dotikajo ali pa so v njih sploh v celoti spregledana. Tako so v drugem delu knjige najprej pogledali na otroštvo v izseljenstvu, kot se odraža v slovenski izseljenski književnosti in medmrežnih vsebinah. Tretji del knjige se osredotoča na doslej v veliki meri prezrte vidike otroštva v nekaterih posebnih izseljenskih situacijah. Avtorice v svojih poglavjih namreč raziskujejo intimno doživljajske migrantske izkušnje otrok aleksandrink, prisilno izseljenih otrok in otrok diplomatov. Četrti del knjige obravnava jugoslovansko skrb za otroke v slovenskem izseljenstvu v času med svetovnima vojnama, migracije otrok v jugoslovanskem prostoru ter skrb za otroke slovenskega porekla v Bosni in Hercegovini, njihovo učenje in ohranjanje slovenskega jezika.

The closing of the “Golden Gate” to the promised land, the United States of America, after the First World War triggered a new wave of migration to the developed countries of Europe, primarily France, Belgium, the Netherlands and Germany. This was the time of the first Yugoslavia, officially known as the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes. Part of these migrations included Slovene emigrants and their children. The interwar period was marked by a major economic crisis and intensified ideological and political pressures. The Catholic Church was a strong presence with regard to the emigrants. The book ('Slovene emigrants and Western Europe during the time of the first Yugoslavia') describes and analyses the emigrants’ everyday lives, the work of emigrant societies, the publication of emigrant newsletters, the work of emigrant teachers and priests, the work of consular offices, the organisation of contacts with the homeland, the organisation of children’s holiday camps, and the children’s pen-pal contacts all over the world. It discusses emigrant activities, the zeitgeist, creativity and contacts with the new environments. We also find numerous simple literary highlights in the emigrant contacts. Singing, acting and music were always and everywhere present among the emigrants, both during joyful celebrations and solemn occasions. The book gives us a deep insight into the world of the emigrants during the period between the two world wars. Ko so se po prvi svetovni vojni zaprla »zlata vrata« v obljubljeno deželo, Združene države Amerike, se je sprožil nov izseljenski tok v razvite evropske države, predvsem v Francijo, Belgijo, Nizozemsko in Nemčijo. To je bil čas prve Jugoslavije. Del selitvenega dogajanja so predstavljali slovenski izseljenci, izseljenke in njihovi otroci. Čas med obema vojnama je bil zaznamovan z veliko gospodarsko krizo in s povečanimi ideološkimi in političnimi pritiski. Močno prisotna v odnosu do izseljencev je bila Katoliška cerkev. Knjiga temelji na prikazu in analizi izseljenskega vsakdana, delovanja izseljenskih društev, izdajanja izseljenskih glasil, delovanja učiteljev in duhovnikov v izseljenstvu, dela konzularnih predstavništev, organiziranosti stikov z domovino, organiziranja otroških počitniških kolonij, vzdrževanja pisemskih stikov otrok po svetu. Zajema izseljensko dejavnost, duh časa, ustvarjalnost in preproste literarne utrinke ter stike z novimi okolji. Petje, igre in glasba so bili med izseljenci prisotni vedno in povsod, tako ob veselih praznovanjih kot žalostnih dogodkih. Knjiga prinaša poglobljen pogled na izseljenski svet v obdobju med obema svetovnima vojnama.

The monograph on István Széchenyi presents the Slovenian territory with a story about an extremely important Hungarian politician, economist, and national awakener. As in other nations, it was also in Hungary that the long nineteenth century brought to the fore prominent individuals who contributed towards the development of modern national consciousness. Although the Slovenes are probably more familiar with the name of the Hungarian politician Lajos Kossuth, István Széchenyi figured as an equally prominent driver of Hungarian national development. Just how significant his influence was on Hungarian history was demonstrated by none other than Kossuth, his political opponent, who described him as the “Greatest Hungarian”. The volume at hand was compiled by four historians, three Slovenian and one Hungarian. Its central part comprises chapters on Széchenyi’s life, political career, and economic activities, whereas the introductory chapter on the Széchenyi noble family and its estates in the Slovenian territory and the last chapter on relations between the Hungarians and Emperor Franz Joseph embed the monograph within a broader time-span, thus enabling a better understanding of István Széchenyi’s endeavours and his lasting impact on Hungarian history. Monografija v slovenski prostor prinaša zgodbo o izjemno pomembnem madžarskem politiku, gospodarstveniku in narodnem buditelju. Podobno kot pri drugih narodih je dolgo 19. stoletje tudi pri Madžarih na dan naplavilo pomembne posameznike, ki so pripomogli k razvoju moderne nacionalne zavesti. Medtem ko je verjetno med Slovenci bolj poznano ime madžarskega politika Lajosa Kossutha, je bil prav tako pomembna gonilna sila madžarskega nacionalnega razvoja prav István Széchenyi. Kako pomemben je bil njegov vpliv na madžarsko zgodovino dokazujejo prav besede Kossutha, ki je svojega političnega nasprotnika Széchenyija opisal kot »največjega Madžara«. Pri pričujoči monografiji so sodelovali štirje zgodovinarji, trije slovenski in eden madžarski. Osrednji del knjige tvorita poglavji o Széchenyijevi življenjski poti, politični karieri in gospodarskemu delovanju. Tako uvodno poglavje o plemiški rodbini Széchenyi in njihovih posestih na Slovenskem, kot tudi zadnje poglavje o odnosu med Madžari in cesarjem Francem Jožefom pa monografijo postavljata v daljši časovni lok ter tako omogočata boljše razumevanje delovanja in daljnosežnega vpliva Istvána Széchenyija na madžarsko zgodovino.
