Sažetak
Some elements of the importance of articles on a nationality/minority in the daily press of a majority nation are discussed. A daily is seen as one of the forms of societal communication between the smaller and the bigger segments of individual nations. The importance of articles on nationality/minority is branched off into three groups. As far as a minority community is concerned, the importance of communication through a daily paper is felt, among other things, as a sense of belonging. As concerns a nationality, the importance is contained in the recognition of its singularity, the acceptance of a shared living and the feeling of togetherness, etc. Some elements of a general importance of the articles of the kind can be found, among other things, in learning about one another and in exchanging cultural values, in forming the lives of the concerned in a democratic way, and in doing away with prejudices.
Besides, the question of whether texts in daily papers can really affect the process of communication between a minority/nationality and the majority group, as well as preconditions for making such efforts effective are also discussed.
