Art music played a vital role as a means for cultural and political legitimization of the young Czechoslovak state. Critics in Germany above all, as members of one of the 'leading musical nations', were allotted a key role - which further complicated already-difficult relations with the country's 'own' Germans. The intelligentsia wished to convey a completely distinctive image of their country as a cultural nation on a high level, as opposed to the stereotypes of rustic backwardness. A composer like Antonin Dvorak was de-emphasized in his own national cultural tradition, because he was dismissed abroad as 'naive' on the basis of the established Slavic stereotype despite his international successes. On the other hand modernism on the musical scene of the Czechoslovak Republic rose to the highest level of recognition among professionals, but achieved no broad effect and thus also could not function as a vehicle for political legitimization.

The neo-Marxism of the 20th century based on the human interpretation of K. Marx's ideas had become a strong opponent to orthodox ideology of communist parties. From mid 1920s, Neo-Marxism was rather influential in European intellectual life. At the same period, Ukrainian Neo-Marxism was coming into being. That was the first episode of its development, when its key problem was the place and role of Ukraine and Ukrainian under social, scientific and technical changes. The second episode had started at 1960s in connection with K. Marx's early works translations, on the one hand, and anti-Stalinist campaign, on the other hand. The ideological boundaries of neo-Marxism broadened: in opposition to Soviet orthodox ideology, the problems of metaphysics, philosophy, and anthropology were discussed together with questions of Ukrainian culture and historical perspectives of Ukraine. From the beginning of 1970s, Ukrainian neo-Marxism was developing in two main trends. The legal studies' key problems were those of human being, life experience of a person, human ideology. The dissident's works were devoted mainly to national-cultural problematic. The fourth episode was stipulated by Perestroika; its key interest was focused on the problems of humanism, totalitarianism, and the role of philosophy in forming the totalitarian ideology.

The main purpose of this contribution is to publicize research results of the lingual-communicative behaviour of the Slovak youth in Slovakia and Hungary, which were obtained in both named countries in 2010. We analyse an indicator of the minority ethno-cultural development, as well as three selected components of it – individually and in reciprocal interrelations, as well. The referential framework of this article consists of two analytical levels:- analysis of opinions relating to the development of the national culture (Slovak or Hungarian), native language (Slovak or Hungarian) and national education (Slovak or Hungarian), - analysis of mutual contexts of research participant opinions (individual groups about ethno-cultural development of minorities with regard to the identification indicators of research participants (locality, family, education).

A number of studies adopting either Hofstede ́s Cultural Values Survey approach or Schwartz ́s concept of Value Types have documented major distinctions in value preferences between Czechs and Slovaks. The most prominent one has been represented either by the dimension of Masculinity (as constructed by Hofstede) or value type of Achievement (a concept of Schwartz); both defined by similar content, stressing the importance of success, achievement and competence. In this study, we therefore aim to explore this difference in more detail. For that purpose, we contrasted two matched samples of Czech (N=200) and Slovak (N=200) participants representative of the two populations. One of the main findings of the study was that several items were interpreted quite differently both within and across the countries. This prompted us to look in more detail at the four items that make up the MAS index. Our results, based on participants ́ responses to VSM2013 and PVQ21 and their demographic information, suggest that factors such as religious affiliation, age, gender and residence size were not major predictors of cross-cultural differences in Masculinity, but rather this single item on Hofstede's VSM 2013 questionnaire. One theoretical possibility brought about by our findings is that while the dimension of Masculinity might be culturally universal, the items devised to measure it could have culture-specific content.

On the basis of documents of Central state historical archive of Ukraine (Kyiv), Department of manuscripts and textual studies of T. Shevchenko Institute of Literature of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, Institute of Manuscripts of V. Vernadskyi National library of Ukraine this article deals with the significance of Kharkov, St.Vladymyr (Kyiv), Novorossiya (Odessa) Universities’ scientists’ activities for development of Ukrainian-Czech-Slovak relations in the second half of the 19th century. The article notes that Ukrainian-Czech-Slovak scientific and educational links strengthened cultural unity of the Slavonic people and enriched inter-Slavic cooperation. National rebirth of the Slavonic people, based on French Revolution (1789) ideology and Romanticism, accompanied by the deepening of interest in the history, folklore, ethnography, national languages and literatures, the growth of Slavs’ national consciousness, eventually – the flowering of science, education, art and centuries-old traditions of inter-Slavonic ties.

All European societies have massively intermixed in the course of history. Migrations and wars were not unusual. The stability of the ethnic composition of specific groups is thus a myth. Nationalistic ideologies which present their countries as nation-states most often do not take into consideration the numerous “admixtures” which have come into existence due to migration. Similarly, the idea of cultural “purity” has no sense. Also the idea of an eternal national territory is senseless more often than not. There are nations with the predominance of emigration processes and there are nations with the predominance of immigration processes. There are also nations in diaspora and nations which are entirely composed of immigrants who recently arrived in a given place. The phenomenon of migration has great influence on the characteristics of the nation which it concerns, on its culture, and national consciousness. The perspective on migration processes was at times one of the fundamental elements of a nation’s self-identification.
