This review analyzes and compares scholarship on Slovenian migration to Argentina, highlighting disparities between Slovenian and Argentine academic approaches. While Slovenian researchers have examined identity, politics, and transnational ties in-depth, Argentine contributions are limited. The study includes works by migrants and descendants, showing how community narratives shape collective memory. It concludes that the literature is rich but marked by national biases, calling for more interdisciplinary, integrative research.

The article focuses on the Slovenian citizens in China in the 21st century. The authors consider their small numbers and national non-recognition as a distinctiveness in the fast-developing field of research on immigration in China. They discuss the immigration of Slovenian citizens through contrasting engagements with the Chinese economy and propose the analytical categories of “managers” and “entrepreneurs.” They link the former to the local emplacement based on the Slovenian companies’ production units in China and the drive for national groupness, and the latter to the search for niche opportunities in the huge Chinese market. The authors also address this temporality of the migration process and detail the interplay between macroeconomic factors and the individual decisions of its protagonists.

In his work The Native’s Return (1934), Louis Adamič navigates the complexities of multiculturalism, drawing on his experiences in both the polyethnic United States and the multinational Kingdom of Yugoslavia. The article explores Adamič’s multicultural awareness in his writings on Yugoslavia’s customs, social relations, culture, and politics. This analysis will provide insightful perspectives on Adamič’s representation of Yugoslavia in the American public sphere and how his American experience influenced his views on Yugoslav cultural and political situations.

Using the concepts of care gap, transnationalization of care, and retirement migration—and based on interviews with stakeholders and an institutional analysis of care provision for older people in Slovenia and Croatia—the article examines retirement care migration between the two countries. It shows that the marketization of care in Croatia matches the care gap in public provision in Slovenia, which establishes “precarious hybrid transnational care.” Older people use two strategies—citizenship rights and the market—to access cheaper residential care across the border, though of lower quality than in Slovenia. The study shows that transnational care can arise out of specific national institutional configurations of care.
