In the 1820s, several thousand Czechs moved to the Carpathian Mountains region near the Danube river. They founded six villages. Strict ethnic endogamy helped preserve their cultural distinction. ...Nowadays these villages are visited by tourists from the Czech Republic. Visits are motivated by the search for both “traditional” rural landscape and lifestyle. The paper analyses the ways of how tourists perceive the rural landscape and lifestyle, how their perceptions vary and how they influence their behaviour. It is assumed that there is a sentiment for traditional, pre-modern world. This sentiment is used for tourism promotion there. Therefore the “harmonic cultural landscape” does not only have ecological and cultural value, but its image becomes a commodity in the tourism industry.

Ta razprava obravnava problematiko uporabe italijanščine in madžarščine kot uradnih jezikov v sodnih postopkih na območjih Republike Slovenije, kjer sta jezika določena kot uradna jezika. Avtorice ...ugotavljajo, da obstajajo pravne podlage, ki bi morale na omenjenih območjih dopustiti uporabo uradnih jezikov vsakomur, vendar pa praksa slovenskih sodišč pri tem ni enotna. Predvsem na območju italijanske manjšine sodišča preverjajo tudi narodnost vlagatelja, čeprav za takšno preverjanje ne obstajajo nobeni izdelani kriteriji.
