Throughout the world cities after the fall of the totalitarian regimes deal with numerous issues that affect the everyday life of their inhabitants. The cities, which benefited from the economic direction of the totalitarian regime concerning selected sectors of the economy, may become sites on the periphery of events after several years. Conversely, the democratization of post-totalitarian societies associated with the opening of borders, free movement of persons, knowledge and technologies in a short time can affect the development of cities and towns stagnating in the previous era.

By the opportunity of joining European Union, the authoress deals with the cultural identity and cultural heritage from the point of view of ethnology. According to her premise the traditional folk culture is considered to be a part of the national culture and as this it helps to constitute the cultural heritage of Slovakia. In the same time (as a fragment of the cultural memory) it interferes with a considerable part of the cultural identity and consciousness of the individual, communities and nation. In ethnographical and folkloristic areas she is looking for the answer to the question, what should be considered as cutural heritage and what are the possibilities of Slovakia to present it in the framework of ongoing processes of globalisation of European and world culture.

In our days, the importance of making valuable cultural content available on the Internet is increasing. Cultural institutions need to adapt to new user needs. The Minerva project - that Hungary joined from 2004 - was launched in order to coordinate and support digitisation activities at the European level. The project is based on the Lund Principles that were published in 2001. The programme of the project is known as the Lund Action Plan. The implementation itself started in 2002. For the supervision of the implementation of the principles, a permanent committee called the National Representatives Group was formed with the participation of experts from the member states. The individual tasks are carried out by international working groups that support the digitisation of cultural content by elaborating standards and guidelines. Hungary joined the MinervaPlus initiative in 2004 and its current involvement includes a study on the use of European multi-language websites and thesauri. The results show that 30,1% of the cultural websites in Europe are still published in one language only, 43,2% of them are bilingual and 26,7% are in multiple languages. The second or third language is most often English. There are 31 controlled vocabularies in the records so far. The final analysis of the results is expected in November 2004, after the meeting of the working group.

MTA SZTAKI and iKron Ltd. released a new integrated library management system called Hunteka in 2002. The development of the system is based on the authoress development plans and on the valuable feedback of Hunteka users. In this paper, a new Hunteka module is described, the e-Library, available as an independent software called JaDoX too, developed by iKron Ltd. This module helps and simplifies digitisation work from document processing through standardized storage to publishing on the Internet. JaDoX is a platform-independent document handling system based on open standards. JaDoX editor helps to transform unstructured text sources into TEI-based XML documents after recognition and proofing preparation. The results can be easily uploaded to the JaDoX server by one key press or mouse click. The JaDoX server stores the documents in relational database. It serves the documents for browsing, searching and publishing methods, which can be initiated on the web user interface.

In our days, when nearly every cultural institution has a website, it is time to focus on quality. Quality does not only depend on technology, it is equally connected with well organized content, continuous maintenance and the monitoring of user needs. The EU-funded Minerva project defines ten quality principles for cultural sites. Sites should be transparent, effective, maintained, accessible, user-centered, responsive, multi-lingual, interoperable, managed and preserved. In March 2005, a quality test was carried out among six Hungarian cultural sites at the request of the Minerva working group on the quality of websites. All the examined websites have proved highly accessible and effective. However, the general challenges for the tested sites were the following: 1. Mission statement missing, or not on the front page 2. Crumbtrail, or sitemap missing 3. Multilingual equals with bilingual 3. Users are not involved by the planning 4. User-forums are missing 5. Problems with using metadata standards and OAI-PMH protocols 6. Media migration plan and disaster recovery plan are missing.

This paper maps out the possibilities of using virtual and augmented reality in the context of virtual museums and galleries. In addition to the many advantages that virtual reality offers in new knowledge acquisition and presentation of cultural heritage objects, we also describe some possible disadvantages or problems directly related to this technology. Next, we try to find the answer to whether the presentation of selected objects of cultural heritage through virtual reality brings better results compared to the presentation in a traditional, museal form in the research part of the article. In conclusion, we summarise and present the results of the conducted research based on the statements of 138 students who participated in our testing.

Irrigation facilities represent one of the segments of water management. The need for water distribution to the landscape has a long tradition and specific irrigation projects can be assessed not only in terms of technological development of the company but also changes in its approach to water management in the landscape in general. Sophisticated systems of local and supra-regional dimensions, which often combine several functions (irrigation, flood control, land reclamation), are an integral part of cultural (industrial) heritage. The development of irrigation was strongly influenced by the turbulent 20th century, at the end of which they found themselves outside the field of view of society. Currently, the current problem of drought and a fundamental change in the perception of the role of water in the landscape have revived interest in this phenomenon. In the study, historians and water managers offer an interdisciplinary documentation and reconstruction on the example of several important historical irrigation sites of various types in the Czech Republic, also from the perspective of potential cultural heritage protection.

Over the past one hundred years, folk clothing has been considered one of the most significant elements of cultural heritage and has been perceived in this way not only by experts but, for many decades, by its wearers as well. In the present study, the author seeks to find an answer, based on an analysis of older expert texts, as to what formed the theoretical basis for this process, who were its representatives, at what conclusions they arrived, and how the methods of their work were reflected in the formulation of their conclusions. From the historical perspective, the study summarises the opinions on folk clothing, projected through the idea of Slavic unity, as can be observed in the case of Jan Koula and, through the reception of these opinions, also in the case of Lubor Niederle, Drahomíra Stránská and Viera Nosáľová. This work also offers newer reflections from the studies by Alena Jeřábková on the shaping of folk clothing within the Carpathian culture. Through the example of women’s linen skirts, the material part of the study seeks to point out the pitfalls of these approaches and highlight the need to study the construction of folk clothing from a longer historical perspective. Only in this way is the effect of clothing styles in the form of domestication of the individual pieces of stylish clothing evident, combined with older clothing layers. Even though most parts of folk clothing are not proto-Slavic and do not necessarily relate to the culture of the Carpathian curve, as a whole, they prove well the way the countryside managed to accept the transformations of contemporary fashion over the last four centuries and to incorporate them into a unique clothing complex.

The digital remediation of collections is also the dematerialization of these collections. Concurrently with large national and international projects of digitization of cultural heritage, family and personal possessions like photograph albums, videos and letters are also remediated. The meaning of these objects originated in their own context and is linked to their emotional surplus value. These collections participate in the creation of the identity of the proprietor. When cultural content loses its material medium, in some circumstances it loses also its aura – it is no longer an artefact.

Cultural potential of regions might significantly influence the creation of job opportunities for inhabitants through cultural tourism. As one of the main bearers of the cultural exchange it contributes to the incorporation of cultural heritage into the present and to his use within the economic and cultural development of the regions. Therefore, it is important to implement the basic principles of sustainable development: to study, to preserve and to exploit creatively the natural and cultural potential of regions as a source of economic income and a basis of the local identity as well as the image for marketing of localities. It is important also to harmonize the social, economic and environmental aspects of the development, i. e. to struggle for a balanced development based on the protection and development of traditional local values. The initiative of the creation of the development programs should come from the local or regional authorities. At the same time the professional consulting - active participation of experts - is necessary.

This paper deals with the issue of the New Towns built in the 1950s in East Germany and Yugoslavia, in particular Eisenhüttenstadt in Germany and Velenje in Slovenia. The authors would argue that socialist New Towns have gained historical and public recognition over recent decades and seem to have adopted a sense of heritage, both on the local and national levels. This article discusses the interpretations and recognition of (post-) socialist towns as places of cultural and historical value, as well as the post-socialist practices of the locals with regard to the cultural heritage of their towns. The national and local recognition of both New Towns reflect their position at the time of their planning and building in the 1950s. Eisenhüttenstadt was a showcase town for East Germany and has currently been (inter-) nationally recognised as a new, model town, while lacking a local sense of heritage. On the other hand, plans for the new town centre of Velenje, its financing and construction, were initiated by the local authorities and the Coal Mine Company managers, with the substantial assistance of the town’s residents. While the New Town of Velenje immediately started to cultivate its mining identity, as well as the value of being a town built with the voluntary contribution of its residents, the heritage of Velenje being a new, modern town was and is discussed and contested locally and only partly nationally.

Nowadays traditional folk culture is presented in variety of forms, in different cultural activities and program characteristics. We were focused on the Turiec region and its cultural activities such as markets, commemorations, folk festivals, scenic festivals, activities in museums and chosen annual traditions. Because of diversity of institutional and informal subjects that initiate and organize these activities, the emphasis is put on their attraction or extraordinary features than on the origination and purity. The aim is to differ from other towns or villages and to invite as many visitors as possible.

The preservation of digital cultural heritage is a task that every country needs to take charge of. Digitally born cultural objects that are exclusively published on the Internet merit special attention, as these documents are the most fragile. The extent, as well as the complex and changeable nature of the Internet and its most popular service, the World Wide Web represent an extraordinary challenge from archiving point of view. Carrying out the task - or at least parts of it - needs to be based on the long-term and continuous collaboration of various partner institutions: public collections, especially the national library, major Internet and content providers, IT developer institutes and companies, as well as the appropriate governmental bodies. This paper gives an overview of the international issues of Internet archiving and proposes the first steps towards the creation of a Hungarian Internet Archive.

We examine the role and importance of scientific research in the process of obtaining and scientifically assessing the cultural heritage in museum as a memory institution. This research is a part of a complex approach to the phenomenon of documenting a society’s development and as such, it must give equal attention to tangible and intangible cultural heritage which is often difficult to do in practice. In this context, we focus our attention on eco-museums which aside from preserving and presenting also aim to at least partially revitalize cultural heritage in its natural environment.

A large number of studies within the social sciences have been devoted to the relationship between cultural heritage and cultural/ heritage tourism development in recent years and even decades. This area of study has been an object of interest for numerous disciplines, from economics, geography, sociology and history, to ethnology, sociocultural anthropology, museology and cultural studies. The study aims to present selected theories on cultural heritage and heritage tourism based on recent theoretical concepts, and to reflect their implementation within a particular national and regional context based on a case study of the Banská Bystrica Self-Governing Region, Slovakia.

The formation and use of the cultural heritage and identity of local communities is a result of historical development and current opportunities and needs. Cultural heritage becomes a part of the cultural potential as a system. In Čajkov, the most representative village of the Slovak Chilejkar people, there is a system of using the established concept of local cultural heritage through cultural events (several of which are closely connected in terms of organisation and visitors) implemented by local human resources structured into local organisations and institutions, which are relatively diverse but have an internal logic. Some events have an old tradition; others originated and became “traditional” only a few years ago. The outlined system existing in a municipality with less than 1000 inhabitants reflects the degree of functioning of the local community. It is conditioned by cohesion, hierarchy, the self-confidence of members and appropriate economic conditions. For seniors, besides routine and tradition, the essential activating element is the social dimension – being socially active means meeting others, spending time with peers and eliminating loneliness. It is also an important identity creator in the socialisation, education and especially the upbringing of children and youth.

The article analyzes the issues of using the linguistic corpus to research Cyril’s and Methodius’s cultural heritage and Church Slavonic texts: the text is considered as the main point for analyzing the history of the Church Slavonic language. The author names topical issues for the research of the Church Slavonic language in the area of Slavia Ortodoxa, and demonstrates the possibilities of using corpus linguistics and its methods in the research of ancient and modern Church Slavonic texts. The article substantiates the theoretical and methodological possibility of analyzing linguistic phenomena (based on the text-centric principle) with the methods of corpus language research. The author analyzes the explanatory possibilities of modern text-oriented corpus linguistics and describes the dynamics of the text-centric approach in modern linguistic developments. The methodological connection of linguistics of Church Slavonic discourse with the corpus method of its research is explained.
