The army belongs to the most important pillars of every state unit. The ruler, having at least seemingly a uniformed homogeneous armed mass behind them, could present their power not only in front of their own people, but also in the context of foreign policy. However, the question remains, whether such an idyllic statement can practically be reached. A similar problem was dealt with by the ruling dynasty of the Central European monarchy, the Habsburgs, who, after taking power in the country on the Danube and under the influence of modernisation and technological progress, professionalised the country’s armed forces, which also included men from the territory of Upper Hungary who spoke the Slovak language and its dialect equivalents. Considering the scope of the issue in question, the study deals with the period from the introduction of supplementary districts at the end of the 18th century until the end of World War 1. with the basic methodological feat being the identification and theoretical definition of “Slovak” units (infantry, cavalry, artillery, and technical units), with an emphasis on the elite infantry units, commonly called “Field Jaeger Corps”.

The paper disputes the acceptance of a specific nationality as a traditional requisite for the suffrage. Particular attention is paid to parliamentary elections, because a parliament generally represents the leading state authority. The paper also contents an attempt to formulate alternatives that would replace the nationality as a requisite of the suffrage. They are above all the principle of affected interests and the coercion principle, which also demonstrate the fact that an individual is a part of the political community and therefore should have the right to participate on the government of this political community, even though the suffrage. The paper is based on the authorʼs habilitation lecture.

The booklet “Zpráva pjsma slowenského” (1696) is a result of T. Masnicius ś experience during his exile in western Europe, where he came to understand that the Slovaks, being one of the Slavonic people, were unknown. He wrote this elementary introduction to the Slovak language, which is almost identical with the traditional Czech of that time. In addition, he called out more competent authors to continue this task and to produce better compendia. In this way, a concept of a literary language, called lingua slavico - bohemica arose. This impulse was developed in the methodologically pivotal Grammatica Slavico – Bohemica by Pavel Doležal (1742) and methodologically continued in all of the following grammars of Slovak and Czech, including the grammars of Czech by J. Dobrovský and of Slovak by A. Bernolák and Ľ. Štúr. In this way, the identity of Slovaks and Slovak language were generally accepted.

The utilization of folklore elements in composed music was explored by Slovak musicologists and composers during the nineteenth and the twentieth centuries. Their views were published in monographs, historical syntheses, studies, and essays in periodicals and journals. Perspectives on the selection of folklore models and on the way of their utilization in musical compositions kept changing according to the various historical periods and the contemporaneous social and cultural situation. This study presents an overview of the perspectives of Slovak musicologists and composers on this issue within three concepts of working with folklore models: an aesthetic, a historical, and a theoretical-analytical one.

After World War I, Greek Catholic Church had been brought from the previous era to the new constitutional circumstances reputation of the subject willing to cooperate with former governmental authorities on magyarization of its believers. The Church had thus necessarily to undergo the process of adaptation to the new conditions of democratic and nationally Slavic oriented first Czechoslovak Republic. One manifestation of this was the modification of its management structures. The present study discusses about competing factions within the leadership of ecclesial province struggling for the post of new apostolic administrator, which were differentiated based on national and cultural preferences and attitudes to then actual state power.

The article deals with statistical surveys of the population of Czechoslovakia after the Second World War. These included the Population Count for Rations (Supis zasobovanych osôb), which was carried out in Slovakia in 1946, and the Population Count by Profession (Soupis obyvatelstva podle povolani), which was not carried out until 1947, and the first post-war Population Census, conducted in 1950. The article also contains information on selected findings of the Supreme Administrative Court in Prague that pertained to determining the nationality of the population after 1945. Alongside the legal background to the statistical surveys, the article also goes over the circumstances that affected the course of the surveys. The authoress presents a list of survey indicators and the basic results of the statistical surveys. After the Second World War the Supreme Administrative Court in Prague had to occupy itself with defining the phrase 'persons of German or Hungarian nationality' used in the decree rules without any exact definition, and it had to deal with disputes over the nationality of persons as a result of the application of the Benes Decrees. Selected findings of the Supreme Administrative Court on this issue are presented at the end of the article.

The dependents of the German minority in Czechoslovakia lost their nationality according to the constitutional decree no. 33/1945. The government took more reasonable attitude towards them after the formation of East Germany in October of 1949. The inhabitants could retrieve their nationality according to statutory order no. 252/1949. There lived about 1 500 Germans in Kosice region. A little part of them (350) applied to regain the nationality. They came from the following areas: Gelnica, Kezmarok, Vysoke Tatry, Spisska Nova Ves, Levoca, Kosice-mesto and Roznava. 330 citizens were successful; rejection of the other applications was based on various reasons. The restoration of the nationality for each person was the matter of a law accepted on 21 April 1953. Confiscated property was not restituted. (http://www.saske.sk/cas/)

The study identifies main characteristics of persons entering together into marriage in Slovakia in the period 1992 – 2018. We focus on the analysis of age, marital status, education and nationality of the engaged couple. The major question of the paper is whether the transformation of family and reproductive behaviour in Slovakia is reflected in the patterns of assortative mating. The results of the analysis pointed to the fact that the Slovak marriage market and patterns of partner behaviour still show a high degree of homogamy. Most partners entering the marriage have the same nationality, education and a similar age. However, we can identify features that clearly point to changes in the choice of partner and speak of its greater diversity. These are based on both structural (possibilities and opportunities to marry a particular person), social (social barriers between groups) and individual (preferences, values, etc.) factors, which undergo significant changes over the period. The wedding market is also "opening up" and modern patterns of partner behaviour are gradually being added to the traditional patterns of assortative mating.

The paper deals with the problematic results of national statistics in the Czechoslovak census of 1930 in Slovakia. The ethnic statistics were significantly different in some regions compared to the results of the previous census 1921, particularly in some areas of southern and north-eastern Slovakia, i.e., where a significant Hungarian and Ruthenian minority lived.

The development and associated life conditions of members of national minorities in Slovakia is influenced by several factors. This article’s hypothesis is that one of the significant factors determining the quality of life of national minorities is the degree to which minorities follow media output focussed on them. This article interprets the scale of minorities’ engagement with selected media categories (in print, radio and television) using questionnaire collection data in the APVV project. Additionally, the aim of this contribution is to monitor the development of the culture of national minorities in the media sphere through comparing the current research results with the research of the previous project from 2004. Due to the national heterogeneity of Slovakia, an important step by Slovak governmental organizations has been the monitoring and subsequent support and further development of nationality cultural activities. Besides a number of organizations, associations, theatres, museums, associations, civic groups and national minorities groups which organize many cultural activities, the minority culture is also supported by regular radio and television broadcasts on Slovak Radio and Television stations (RTVS) – which was established as public, national, information, cultural and educational institution. The analysis of the results of the questionnaire from the current APVV project confirmed the statistical significance of the minority factor both in relation to the minority press as well as in relation to the minority broadcasting of RTVS on both the radio and television. In summary, the relationship between the rates of following of the minority press and broadcasting by the relevant minority is interrelated with the life and development of the national minority itself; and, correspondingly, this directly affects the rate of minority broadcasting.

The study is a part of a research which through an analysis of Svetozár Hurban Vajanský's texts about culture, arts and literature published from 1879 to 1916 mostly in the 'Národné noviny' (The National Newspaper) and 'Slovenské pohlady' (The Slovak Views) tends to reconstruct the conception which stood behind the scene, stressing an organic unity of its elements - opinions of the nation, culture, or aesthetic opinions. The ideology of nationalism seems to be an important ideological platform. Summing up literary reception of the work as well as Vajanský's literary aesthetic opinions we are focused predominantly on the so called 'program' texts , that means articles and essays from the period of 1879 - 1881. In those texts he attempted to formulate a program for a new literary generation and he also set fundamental theses of his conception. More than a generational gesture of making a distance from the tradition of Slovak Romanticism - that was a common interpretation of these texts by the Slovak literary historiography - we stress different forms of Vajanský's relation to it. We explicate these texts embodying an 'initiator's gesture' of S. H. Vajanský towards stagnated contemporary literature as an attempt to fulfil a 'cultural task' (T. Walas) given by the Romantic nationally reviving generation to establish the national culture as a culture highly legitimated and representing Slovak nation in the European context. Evoking and persistent confirming already existing tradition is typical for Vajanský's conception. Any radical revaluation of the historical values should have damaged identity of a newly creating Slovak culture. That is why new solutions, with which Vajanský comes to lead out the Slovak literature from stagnation and isolation, leaving the traditional pattern. The connection between the 'initiator's gesture' and Vajanský's tradition of Slovak Romanticism does not prove only rhetoric and processes of myths creation referred to the ideology of nationalism, but also metaphoric model of thinking, by which O. Cepan characterised an approach of Romanticism towards reality, and mainly 'belonging to our people' - an abstract principle of collective self-identification expressing its cultural specific character, which comes out from Herder and Hegel philosophy. This central principle of Vajanský's conception in the context of his opinions of literature and arts significantly determine tendency to establish heteronymous model of arts. In terms of two basic European aesthetic systems he inclined more to Hegel's aesthetic. Significant role plays his national and cultural conception based on stratification of Slovak ethnic in two levels - 'people' functioning as conservators of the national identity and then nationally representative level.

The study presents an analytical description of key factors and an analysis of basic concepts in the transformation of a society of estates into a society of citizens in the Kingdom of Hungary against the background of contradictory nationalizing processes: ethnic and political. In relation to the actors, that is the types of elites involved in this process, differing in available resources, social and political capital, it was a matter of a clash of nationalisms generated from above – from the level of the government, and from below from the level outside the political institutions. It was a clash between official political and nationality nationalisms. Nationality or ethnic nationalism, its way of thinking, construction and instrumentalisation of collective identity using historical argumentation is placed in the centre of attention.

(Slovak title:Romovia na juznom Slovensku na zaklade celouhorskeho supisu z roku 1893 (problemy pocetnosti, narodnostnej prislusnosti). Brief and summary facts about Romany people continually settled in the south Slovakia are given in the contribution, especially in region inhabited by Hungarian minority from Middle Ages. Main priority is to follow multiplicity, language and nationality of Romany people in given territory in the view of results of Register of all-Hungarian Romany people from 1893. In intentions of register stated territory is defined by some regions and districts. The register contains some other quantitative facts which indicate that in the south Slovakia region lived almost half of the Romany people situated in Slovakia. Comparisons of details about language and nationality indicate that, in the time of realization of register and strong Magyarization, happened, in given territory, substantial language assimilation in favour of Hungarian language. Later researches do not confirm that it was permanent and definitive effect (especially at bilingual and multilingual musicians).

In this study the author analyses the changes of social representations of the Slovak speaking population of the north-western part of the Hungarian Kingdom in the regional Magyar press during the years of the Great War. The article is based on analyses of five Magyar regional newspapers (issued in mainly Slovak inhabited areas), in which the author explores the usage of various categories (such as “people/folk”, “nationality”, “nation”, as well as notions of “loyalty”, “treacherousness”, and “Pan-Slavism”) and stereotypes as they were utilized in the representations of the Slovaks. The analyses follows how the seemingly subtle changes within the predominant Hungarian/Magyar nationalist ideology of the “Hungarian (political) nation” and particular events in the domestic policy and abroad (the policy of limited cooperation with the leaders of the non/Hungarian nationalist movements pursued by the prime minister I. Tisza on the eve of the World War, and the activities of Czech and Slovak politicians in exile, and of the Czech members of parliament in the Vienna Reichsrat during the last two years of the war) influenced and in fact changed the social representations of the Slovak population within the period of Hungarian/Magyar discourse.

Artykuł stanowi próbę opisania mechanizmów codziennego wyodrębniania Swoich i Obcych w oparciu o źródła prasowe. Sumptem dla prowadzonych rozważań jest dyskurs prasowy ukształtowany wokół spraw sądowych dotyczących zwrotu pozostawionego w Polsce majątku tzw. późnego przesiedleńca Agnes Trawny. Kontekst dla współczesnych wydarzeń i budowanych wokół nich narracji stanowią powojenne losy Mazurów i Warmiaków oraz odpowiednie akty prawne. Zastosowanie analizy dyskursu pozwoliło stwierdzić, że treści artykułów prasowych, które w najogólniejszym oglądzie dotyczą relacji ze sporu prawnego rozwiązywanego przed polskimi sądami, przepełnione są dodatkowymi przekazami dotykającymi skomplikowanych kwestii etniczności i narodowości, tożsamości, swojskości i obcości, polskości i niemieckości. Owe dodatkowe treści są wyrażane nie wprost, i to one właśnie odzwierciedlają, ale i kształtują postawy wobec swoich i obcych. Stosowane przez nadawców i zidentyfikowane w analizowanym materiale ramy konceptualne, synekdochy, struktury pojęciowe, implikatury konwersacyjne należy odróżnić od zwyczajnej dziennikarskiej ignorancji albo celowego wprowadzania w błąd. Jednak wszystkie te zabiegi prowadzą do przedstawienia zniekształconego obrazu zjawiska.

The article attempts to describe the mechanisms of recognizing Folks and Aliens in everyday life based on press sources. The discourse is formed around the release of court cases relating to the recovery of property left in Poland by so-called late resettler, Agnes Trawny. The context for contemporary events and narrative is built by post-war history ofMazurians and Warmians and relevant legislation. The use of discourse analysis concluded that the content of newspaper articles relating to the legal dispute solved before Polish courts are filled with additional messages about complicated issues of ethnicity and nationality, identity, familiarity and strangeness, Polishness and Germaneness. These additional contents are expressed indirectly; they not only reflect but also shape the attitudes about Folks and Aliens. The conceptual frameworks, synecdoches, notional structures, conversational implicatures, etc. used by broadcasters and identified in the analyzed material must be distinguished from ordinary journalistic ignorance or deliberate deception. However, all these treatments lead to present a distorted picture of the phenomenon.
