Review "New Europe" and the Slovenes

Abstract

The author analyses the writing of the YugosIav, integratively oriented, review "New Europe" (1920-1941) from the aspect of its dealing with the "Slovene Question" and its knowledge in this respect, in the frame of the planned integration of the Serbs, Croats and Slovenes into one Yugoslav nation. The Slovene collaborators of the review were never absolutely convinced of the possibility of an early realization of such a plan, and the authors of other nationalities didn't quite believe that the Slovenes could integrate, considering the fact of their insisting too much on their linguistic and cultural dissimilarity.
