ABSTRACT
Drawing on globalization theory and the concept of the university as a globally connected and interrelated space, the paper shows that transnational mobility of students, researchers and professors has greatly increased since the 1990s. This trend can also be noticed in the Alpe-Adria region and in Slovenia. The paper stresses that transnational mobility is especially characteristic of the “knowledge elite”, which consists of an increasing number of young people. With the help of focused interviews, which can be frequently found in the media, the paper emphasises that the “knowledge elite” is not to be considered separate from the present crisis of neoliberal global capitalism, which forces people into “marginal mobility”. The paper finally points out that the transnationalization of the university is also expressed in its transculturalism, which represents something other than merely an intensified union and medley of various national and cultural generations, as it means interweaving and connecting different cultures of knowledge into a new, so far unknown composition.
KEY WORDS: university, transnational space, transcultural space, knowledge elite, transnational mobility

ABSTRACT
Article answers on the question, what is the role of the media in the construction of identity and integration of young migrant adolescents from former Yugoslavia in Slovenian society. The theoretical section conceptualizes the relationship among socialization, integration, identity and media use by adolescents. The main section represents results of in-depth interviews with migrant adolescents from the former Yugoslavia. They show that media play an important role in the integration of migrant adolescents. Interviewees regularly use the Internet for maintaining old and establishing new intra-ethnic and inter-ethnic relations, receiving validation for their views and actions, and acceptance by their peers. Media play a conflicting role in the identification with a new society. On the one hand, their negative representation of the migrants deepens the gap between majority and ethnic minorities; on the other hand, the personal inter-ethnic communication on the Internet reduces this gap.
KEY WORDS: adolescents, immigration, polymedia, Slovenia, countries of former Yugoslavia

ABSTRACT
The paper presents an analysis of migrations in the city municipality of Velenje and of the relations among immigrants, their offspring, and the local population. International immigration to Velenje had two peaks, the first one in the 1970s and 1980s and the second one in the period between 2005–2009. The immigrants came mostly from the area of the former SFRY. In the first period, male immigrants were shortly followed by women, but the immigrant population in the whole of the second period was predominantly male. Our field research revealed that people of different nationalities and ethnic origin established successful coexistence, good community relations in daily social interactions, and solidarity. People do form inter-ethnic friendships, but differences are observed with regard to intimate relationships. They still prefer partners from their own ethnic group. Intolerance is not widespread in the local community, though there exist some worrying examples of bullying and inappropriate attitude towards immigrant offspring in schools.

ABSTRACT
The paper discusses and provides an insight into how the State Security Administration (UDBA) monitored the Slovene emigration in Austrian refugee camps and linked it with the operation of illegal groups in Slovenia. These illegal groups were labelled by the Communist Party as one of the core opponents of the new political system, where their operations were deemed a large-scale organized political, military and religious movement and were linked to the activities of the Slovene military and political emigrants in Austrian refugee camps, as well as to foreign intelligence services. The Main Intelligence Centre was founded at the St. Johann military refugee camp near Salzburg in October 1945 and its primary task was to establish a network of intelligence centres within the refugee camps in Austria. UDBA was convinced that these intelligence centres had formed illegal groups which were sent into Slovenia to undermine the Communist authorities.

ABSTRACT
The article highlights some of the meanings and roles of music and music-related activities among the Slovenian emigrant communities in Switzerland. As it gradually becomes a part of the new setting, shaping and reshaping the cultural life, there is at the same time an increase in musical creativity, which is used in migrant processes for establishing relations toward the old, original environment and toward the new environment; however, within the newly established communities, music serves as a medium for creating communities and establishing new relationships toward other communities and toward the members. The paper gives a few examples that show how and why music is used, the role it plays in the emigrant community in question, and attempts to understand what is reflected through music and musical life.
