Abstracts

EN

The Slovak and Czechoslovak communities in Argentina are now predominantly made up of Argentines who reflect their Slovak or Czechoslovak origins. The existence of these communities is the result of migration processes that took place in the first half of the 20th century. The form and content of the current cultural creation, identification, and revitalization processes are the results not only of intergenerational transmission but also of their cultural invention. These are determined by the ethno-cultural characteristics of the surrounding environment, as well as by state policy and nation-building processes. What motivates these people to have minority ethnic identification and activity in communities formed by their ancestors on ethnic lines? What cultural elements and phenomena do they interpret (traditionalize, create, revitalize) as representative ethno-identifying and ethno-differentiating tools and why?
