Recipročnost ali simetrija? Primerjava kulturnih interesov in možnosti dveh manjšin

The paper summarises a comparison of the cultural interests and possibilities of the Slovene national minority in Bosnia and Herzegovina and one the largest ethnic minorities in Slovenia, the Bosniaks. The article is a result of empirical research which included a survey of Slovene cultural societies in the countries of the former Yugoslavia, interviews with teachers of Slovene language and culture in these countries, and interviews with the secretary of the Bosniak Association of Slovenia and the president of the Association of Slovenian Societies in Bosnia and Herzegovina. The author combines a qualitative assessment and interpretation of the fieldwork results with a statistical comparison of certain demographic aspects and the degree of self-organisation of the minorities in question.Prispevek povzema primerjavo kulturnih interesov in možnosti slovenske manjšine v BiH in ene največjih etničnih manjšin v Sloveniji, namreč Bošnjakov. Članek je rezultat empirične raziskave, ki je med drugim obsegala anketo med slovenskimi društvi v jugoslovanskem prostoru, intervjuje s tamkajšnjimi učitelji slovenskega jezika in kulture ter intervjuja s sekretarjem Bošnjaške zveze Slovenije in s predsednikom Zveze slovenskih društev v BiH. Avtorica kombinira kvalitativno obravnavo in interpretacijo rezultatov terenske raziskave s statistično primerjavo nekaterih demografskih vidikov in stopnje samoorganiziranosti obeh izbranih manjšin
