The article explores the history of the Slovenian settlement in the Tuzla Canton area of Bosnia and Herzegovina, dating back to the Austro-Hungarian period. It analyzes census data from 1910 to 2013, highlighting the impact of the Bosnian War on demographic changes. In 1993, due to humanitarian needs, the Slovene Community Association was established, bringing together 660 families and comprising nearly 1,700 members. Due to post-war emigration, only 51 individuals declared themselves as Slovenians in the 2013 census.

During Austro-Hungarian rule—and later in the first unified South Slavic state—periodical publications in Bosnia and Herzegovina served as a popular means for enlightening all strata of the population. One of those publications, the Calendar of the Serbian Educational and Cultural Society (SPKD) Prosvjeta, featured a variety of texts, ranging from literary contributions to expert articles on health, agriculture, geography, pedagogy, and other topics. These texts served as testimonies not only about the Serbian community but also about others. The study analyzes the headlines and news related to Slovenia and Slovenian motifs published in the Calendar between 1905 and 1947.

The article examines the Slovenian literary thematization of Bosnia and Herzegovina during the Austro-Hungarian monarchy. Immigrants, including Slovenians, played various roles in Bosnia that were, in many ways, similar to those played by Western Europeans in non-European colonies. Typical colonial practices such as segregation and the hierarchization of cultures were lucidly identified and criticized by some authors. In confronting the Other, writers perceived themselves as a part of a superior European civilization, in which, to the exclusion of the “savage Asian Turk,” the (South-)Slavic imaginary could also be inscribed. Some authors expressed this element of (South-)Slavic inclusiveness through a specific (South-)Slavic familiarity.

Relations between the Republic of Slovenia and Bosnia and Herzegovina are close, also due to the rich history of migration between the two countries. This article focuses on the collaborative aspect between various institutions and organizations involved in teaching the Slovenian language and/or preserving Slovenian culture in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Particular attention is paid to the inclusion of higher education, as the teaching of Slovenian at this level came to a halt for nearly two decades following the dissolution of the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia.

Internal migrations were relatively strong during the pre–World War II Yugoslav Kingdom; however, in socialist Yugoslavia, they significantly intensified and changed in direction and structure. Three periods of the inter-republic migrations can be roughly discerned: a) the period of pan-Yugoslav consolidation (1945–1956); b) the period of pan-Yugoslav enthusiasm (1956–1974); and c) the period of supranational disintegration (1974–1991). The so-called pseudo-voluntary migration marks each of them. The article explains the basis, structure, and causality of intra-Yugoslav migrations as well as the selectivity of migration based on ethnicity, with a special emphasis on Bosnia and Herzegovina.
