Cultural Life of the Immigrant Community: Factors of Dynamics
Janja Žitnik
Sažetak
This article explores the conditions that are required for a fully developed cultural and artistic activity (production, consumption and reception) going on within or in vital connection with the immigrant community. Drawing on the experience of Slovenian emigrant communities in other European countries, Australia, Argentina, Canada, the United States, Africa and the Arabian Peninsula, and the experience of the largest immigrant communities in Slovenia, that is the Bosniak-Muslim community, the Serbian, the Croatian, the Macedonian, the Montenegrin, the Albanian, and most of the Romany community, the author summarizes, from the viewpoint of literary and cultural historian, the most evident sets of factors that have been found relevant in terms of shaping those conditions in the case of the abovementioned communities. Relying on an information grid extracted from a most diverse selection of sources, the author attempts to point to some relevant aspects that have been largely neglected in the field of cultural historiography.
