Slovenian independence war in Vipava Valley – memories and testimonies of members of Territorial defence forces

Diplomska naloga obravnava dogajanje med osamosvojitveno vojno na območju Vipavske doline. V prvem delu obravnavam dogodke pred vojno ter dogodke med njo. V drugem delu je poudarek na pričevanjih udeležencev, s katerimi konstruiram dogajanje na izbranih lokacijah. Predmet analize so tudi odgovori na vprašanja, kot na primer: kakšna čustva so doživljali med vojno, kaj jih je gnalo, da so se borili ter kako je vojna vplivala na njihovo družino. Preučevanje je poleg intervjujev temeljilo še na pregledu časopisnih člankov iz tistega časa ter drugi literaturi, povezani s temo.This thesis discusses the historical developments in the times of the war of independence in the Vipava Valley area. In the first part, I discuss the events before the war and the events during it. In the second part, I emphasize the testimonials of the participants with which I construct the events on selected areas. Subjects of the analysis are also the answers to questions like: what feelings have they had during the war, what has driven them to fight and how has the war affected their families. In addition to the interviews, the thesis is based on newspaper articles from that time and other literature connected to the subject
