Abstract Slovenes are Slavic people living in Slovenia, an independent state that was formerly a northwestern republic of Yugoslavia. This collection contains 3 documents covering the period of time from approximately 1850-1975, with most of the data focused on the period from the mid-1940s until 1970. Two of the documents are ethnographies on Slovene peasant society and based largely on fieldwork carried out in the 1960s and 70s (Winner and Minnich). The third work, a chapter from Urban life in Mediterranean Europe, summarizes a Yugoslavian study of a suburban working class community outside of the Slovene capital of Ljubljana (Kremensek). Minnich's study is on the social reproduction of peasant farmsteads. Winner's study is a more comprehensive look at the persistence of Slovene peasant culture and society from the 1840s on. Krememsek's article is a review of a more complete study of the cultural and social changes within a suburban community between the 1850s and 1970s.
