Abstract
The aim of this article is to survey the activities of Slovenian
emigrants for the establishment of the Yugoslav state in the
period before, during, and after World War I. It also
describes how the Slovenians were organised in that period,
and compares their activities with those undertaken by
people of Slovenian descent during the struggle for the
independence of Slovenia in 1991 and their efforts for
international recognition of its’ independence in 1991 and
1992.
