Abstract:
The aim of this article is to study the Slovak “development” cooperation’spower effects and the identities based on the related discourses. In the firstpart I focus on Slovakia’s identity as a “developed” country. Here I look atthe need of Slovakia to become a donor that predated the recreation of theSlovak development apparatus. The new apparatus secured for Slovakia theidentity of a “developed” country and reacted to the decline of financialsupport for the Slovak NGO sector after 1998. This part also points to theway the government and suggestive polls construct Slovakia’s identity as adonor and the identity of Slovaks as a people who are willing to help. Thenext part focuses on the construction of Slovakia as a “new” donor with aspecific transition experience. First it shows the power asymmetry casuedby the discourse of “old” and “new” donors, and then it shows how thetransition experience discourse takes part in legitimizing the currenthegemonic ideology and how it serves to hierarchize Slovaks in relation to“old” donors. The last part analyzes the power effects of the representationof Slovakia as an egoistic, altruistic and effective donor.

Abstract:
Slovak (sometimes also called Slovakian) is an Indo-European language belonging to the West-Slavic branch, and is most closely related to Czech. Slovak is spoken as a native language by 4.6 million speakers in Slovakia (that is by roughly 85% of the population), and by over two million Slovaks living abroad, most of them in the USA, the Czech Republic, Hungary, Canada and Great Britain (Office for Slovaks Living Abroad 2009).

Abstract:
Although aggregate popular support for particular nationalisms in Slovakia showed little change during the 1990s, relationships between nationalisms changed significantly. This article uses categories of nationalism derived from the relational typologies of Brubaker and Hechter to analyze surveys of postcommunist Slovak public opinion and demonstrate that popular nationalisms against Czechs, Hungarians, the West, and nonnationalist Slovaks bore little relationship to one another at the time of Slovakia’s independence but converged over time. With the encouragement of nationalist political elites, a large share of the Slovak population became convinced that Slovakia faced threats from all sides and that the country’s enemies were actually working together to undermine its sovereignty. The example of Slovakia thus provides an important case study for understanding how the complex and interactions between distinct nationalisms creates opportunities for the influence of political leadership.

Abstract:
Purpose. The aim of this study was to assess the reproducibility and reliability of the KomPAN questionnaire among two groups of university students from Germany and Slovakia. Methods. A total of 422 individuals (mean age 21.4 years, SD 4.0), including 197 from Slovakia (men 26.2%) and 225 from Germany (men 22.3%), were tested using the self-administered (SA-Q) version of the KomPAN questionnaire and then retested two weeks later. A cross-classification analysis, kappa coefficients, Cronbach’s ɑ coefficients, and a test-retest result comparison were conducted separately for each group of students to assess the reproducibility and reliability of the questionnaire. Results. The cross-classification values were higher than 46.2% among the German students and higher than 55.8% among the Slovakian students. The kappa coefficients ranged from 0.21 to 0.90 in the German students and from 0.38 to 0.94 in the Slovakian students. Cronbach’s ɑ ranged from 0.58 to 0.78. Conclusion. The questionnaire displayed a moderate to very good reproducibility, which was slightly higher in the Slovakian group than in the German group. Therefore, the questionnaire can be recommended for further analysis and comparison of the dietary habits among Germans and Slovakians on a larger scale.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT To examine the evolution of Tula hantavirus (TUL), carried by the European common vole (Microtus arvalis and M. rossiaemeridionalis), we have analyzed genetic variants from Slovakia, the country where the virus is endemic. Phylogenetic analysis (PHYLIP) based on either partial (nucleotides [nt] 441 to 898) or complete N-protein-encoding sequences divided Slovakian TUL variants into two main lineages: (i) strains from eastern Slovakia, which clustered with Russian strains, and (ii) strains from western Slovakia situated closer to those from the Czech Republic. We found genetic diversity of 19% between the two groups and 4% within the western Slovakian TUL strains. Phylogenetic analysis of the 3′ noncoding region (3′-NCR), however, placed the eastern Slovakian strains closer to those from western Slovakia and the Czech Republic, with a greater distance to the Russian strains, suggesting a recombinant nature of the S segment in the eastern Slovakian TUL lineage. A bootscan search of the S-segment sequences of TUL strains revealed at least two recombination points in the S sequences of eastern Slovakian TUL strains (nt 400 to 415 and around 1200) which agreed well with the pattern of amino acid substitutions in the N protein and deletions/insertions in the 3′-NCR of the S segment. These data suggest that homologous recombination events occurred in the evolution of hantaviruses.

Abstract:
The paper deals with the question of relations between Czechs and Slovaks in the first, inter-war, Czechoslovak Republic (1918-1938). It is based on contemporary press, published in Bohemia and Slovakia. The basic question was a gradual political self-identification of Slovaks. It is presented by means of the attitudes of Hlinka's Slovak People's Party in 1923 (regional elections), the struggle for the rules of Slovak grammar (1933-rejection of their adaptation to the rules of Czech grammar), the Zvolen pact between the catholic Slovak People's Party anct the protestant Slovak National Party, the celebrations of the first Christian church in Slovakia (1933) and the declaration of Slovakia's autonomy (1938). To conclude: in 1918-1938, during the existence of the first Czechoslovak Republic, there was no Slovak minority. The first Czechoslovakia was de facto a multiethnic country, though officially it was designed as a country of Czechs and Slovaks, who had the will to create a single, Czechoslovak nation. The notion "minority" in the name of the paper is meant ironically and is to point to the approach often applied by Czechs for Slovaks.

Abstract:
When the editorial board of the bi-weekly current affairs journal Politika decided, in early 1932, to organize a congress of members of the so-called young Slovak generation, its intent was to find a solution to Slovakia's pressing political, economic, social, and cultural problems. Attended by approximately five hundred members of the intelligentsia, most of them in their late twenties or early thirties, the congress was held on June 25 and 26 in the health resort town of Trencianski Teplice in western Slovakia. The Congress of the Young Slovak Generation attracted the attention of its contemporaries for two reasons. First, it marked the first time since at least 1920 that Slovaks from across the political spectrum came together to discuss issues of mutual concern relating to Slovakia. Second, the congress provided an opportunity for observers of Slovak political life to gauge the mood and become acquainted with the ideas of Slovakia's future leaders, especially as far as the crucial question of relations between Czechs and Slovaks in the Czechoslovak Republic was concerned. From the vantage point of the present-day historian, a further factor enhances the congress's importance: as a manifestation of Slovak national discontent, it was a milestone on Slovakia's road to autonomy. An in-depth examination of the Trencianske Teplice Congress, its background, its course, and its consequences, will illustrate the congress's importance for Slovak national and political development.

Abstract:
The February 2020 parliamentary election marked a significant moment for Slovakia after years of public dissatisfaction with endemic corruption, political mismanagement, and unaccountable leadership associated with the political hegemony of Smer-SD and its leader Robert Fico. The resounding victory of the Ordinary People and Independent Personalities Party offers the country an opportunity to not only address the problems with Slovakia’s political culture of corruption and oligarchism, but also to strengthen democracy, the rule of law, and good governance. However, contrary to international expectations, the electoral demographic that chose Zuzana Čaputová as Slovakia’s new president in 2019 failed to secure enough votes to place any liberal democratic party in parliament, leaving the current legislature dominated by a collection of conservative, populist, and Eurosceptic parties. While seen by some analysts as a setback, the prognosis for Slovakian politics appears rather optimistic. This article assesses the outcomes of the February election and notes a continued pattern of political entrepreneurialism where the most successful parties tend to be those that promote broad-based issues of policy instead of any particular ideology, conservative or liberal. Slovakian politics might have been significantly influenced by a number of nationalist and conservative parties over the past three decades, but actual policy has been directed by opportunists instead of ideologues. This has enabled these larger entrepreneurial parties to adopt conservative elements into their programmes for electoral advantage instead of from actual conviction. This leaves open the possibility that entrepreneurial parties might gravitate towards more liberal democratic and even progressive policies should advantageous opportunities arise in the future. Given the current efforts by Slovakian political actors to break with past patterns of oligarchism, coupled with the discrediting of entrenched political elitism and the visible-yet-manageable threats from Slovakia’s far right, such outcomes are increasingly likely.

Abstract:
The list of all known locality and host records from the literature on louse flies from Slovakia are summarized, with the addition of new collection data. New locality data are provided for five species. Three species are added to the Slovakian list: Icostaminor (Bigot in Thomson, 1858), which was erroneously cited for Moravia instead of Slovakia in the previous checklist, and Ornithophilametallica (Schiner, 1864) and Ornithomyachloropus (Bergroth, 1901), which were overlooked from the last checklist. As a result, the louse fly fauna of Slovakia increases to 19 species: 12 autochtonous species and seven rare, non-native species only occasionally imported to Slovakia or migrating to the country with their hosts. This is by far the largest regional fauna of Hippoboscidae in Central Europe, and matches the richest southern European faunas. In total, 78 host-parasite associations concerning 46 bird-host species from eight orders and nine species of mammals, including humans, have been found from a literature review in Slovakia. Two host-parasite associations are reported from Slovakia for the first time: Ornithomyaavicularia (Linnaeus, 1758) on Prunellamodularis (Linnaeus, 1758) (Aves: Prunellidae) and Lipoptenafortisetosa Maa, 1965 on Homosapiens Linnaeus, 1758 (Mammalia: Hominidae).

Abstract:
This report is a bachelor thesis project conducted by Isabelle Andersson and Wiktoria Rydin as a part of the education Mechanical Engineering, Industrial Economy and Production Management, at the School of Engineering, Jönköping University. The project is a collaboration with Hörle Wire Group AB, a company that produces round and flat-rolled wire of high-quality and they belong to one of Europe's leading suppliers of wire. The purpose of the bachelor theses was to review Hörle Wire's transport solutions from their facility in Nitra, Slovakia, to their two main customers in Sweden. Hörle Wire has a problem with gaining profitability regarding these transports. The cost of transporting the goods from Nitra to the customers is so high that the profit margin becomes very low. The problem was studied through qualitative and quantitative data collection in the form of interviews with staff at Hörle Wire and with their customers. The resulted in a clear picture of the emerging problem, and with the theories and facts studied in the field, proposals could be processed. Based on this, some suggestions for improvements were made that Hörle Wire could apply in its efforts to affect the transport. Some different proposals have been made, for example completely changing the means of transport, changing the appearance of today's transportation and to establish a warehouse.

Abstract:
The goal of the thesis is to analyse the reasons for the low level of drawing of the EU structural funds in Slovakia and provide closer insight onto possibilities for change. Furthermore, it aims to examine structure of resource implementation in Slovakia from the perspective of operational programmes, amount of the funds allocated and objectives of convergence policy of the EU with the consequence to Slovak policy. Likewise the research is expected to provide statistics of drawing of the resources and its influence on Slovakia from a number of perspectives. Suggested changes may also moderate hitherto daunting impact on Slovak economy and regions. The paper is divided into three parts in which regional policy is evaluated and the main focus is on the development of regions.

The Ethnopolitical Encyclopaedia of Europe is the first work of its kind that systematically and rigorously examines the politics of ethnicity throughout the continent as a whole. Rather than indulge in a tour of Europe designed to unearth as many diverse population groups as possible, the Encyclopaedia is focused and serves as a unique data source on the continent's politically mobilised ethnic groups. In order to facilitate easy access, the various regions of Europe are assessed and then the nature of the politics of ethnicity is analysed on a country-by-country basis. The combination of incisive entries, maps, tables and easy-to-use country guides makes this an invaluable reference book for both academics and practitioners.

Full text
Abstract:
Comprehensive analyses of online and collaborative learning methods in the post-communist countries of Central and Eastern Europe are nearly non-existent. Yet, these nations typically have authoritarian teaching and learning traditions which present unique and significant challenges to the development of these methods, and which are poorly understood at present. This thesis provides a thorough examination of how collaborative activities are used in online courses, and of student and teacher perceptions of these methods, in the Slovak Republic (Slovakia), and postulates that its findings are relevant and valuable for the many newly open societies in the region that are now entering the online teaching world. Research involved case studies of two Slovak higher education institutions, and interviews with administrators and teachers from a number of Slovak educational institutions. Findings can be summarized as follows: • Collaboration is rarely used as a teaching method in Slovakia, particularly in online settings • Students do not expect to be asked to participate in discussions, but when asked they seem to have no problem embracing the method. • Instructors at many Slovak institutions lack the motivation and training to promote and use collaborative methods in their online courses • The few instructors who make the effort to implement some of these methods use mostly asynchronous discussions. Further analysis of data and findings leads to suggestions for improving the use of collaborative methods in online learning on three key levels: the course level, the institutional level, and the national policy level.

Full text
Abstract:
Studies of interethnic integration in Central Eastern Europe have sought to account for the impact that institutional settings, structural conditions and elite-level interaction have on the accommodation of and conflict resolution between ethnic groups. Much existing literature has placed particular emphasis on the importance of institutional factors, both domestically and as a result of international pressure. Simultaneously, scholarship on the issue has left out of focus the contributions of non-dominant minority actors to the dynamics of interethnic relations. Where minorities are taken into account, this happens largely in terms of their failure to recognise structural opportunities for their inclusion into majority society. This study analyses interethnic integration in the Central Eastern European context from the perspective of structuration theory. Structuration theory provides a sound theoretical foundation in order to study non-dominant agency and its impact on the structures of integration, owing to its ability to reconcile dichotomies. The thesis comprises a comparative case study of interethnic interaction in Estonia and Slovakia, focusing on the Russian-speaking and the Hungarian minority respectively. A structuration approach is applied to the empirical findings in order to problematise practices of integration and their constraints that lie in the institutional and interaction context of Estonian and Slovak post-Communist society. I argue that although Russian-speakers in Estonia and Hungarians in Slovakia are constrained by institutional environs and majority-dominated structures, minority members actively participate in and shape institution-building and group formation in their interaction with majorities. Minority integration is analysed in terms of the minorities’ co-operation within, counteraction against and formulation of alternatives to the status quo structures of interethnic relations.

Abstract:
The aim of this thesis is to analyze the collection of value added tax in Slovakia since its independence in 1993. The main idea is to compare the collection of VAT at the current moment with the selection in the past, because during last couple of years there has been a significant increase in this area. The origin of the increase can be found in changes in legislation as well as introduction of new action plan which should make VAT collection more effective and clear. I will start with an overview of the tax and continue with historical evolution of the tax in the country. In fist part I will present the changes and tools, which came up recently and may stand behind the improvement. In the other part I will compare the collection of the tax in the past and nowadays. I will also evaluate the domestic values with values of other EU countries and look closer on the level of harmonization of the tax in Slovakia and the rest of European Union.

Abstract:
Golf has come a long way in the world since the 13th century, but also in Slovakia. The beginnings of golf in Slovakia date back to before the First World War. The blossoming was halted by the Communist regime, which golf considered to be unacceptable. In Slovakia, the expansion of golf began only in the new millennium, with the construction of golf courses and the increase in the number of golfers. Twenty-five years of golf in the heart of Europe suffered from various prejudices. Golf is a snobbish and expensive sport for Slovaks, despite the cost is comparable to skiing. The turning year 2020 affected all parts of our lives with the Covid 19 pandemic. What slowed down our lives, that started the world of golf. The corona closed all sports grounds and closed people at home in Slovakia. Since golf is safe even in the event of pandemics, the courses were limited only for a few weeks and then they filled up with golfers to the last spots. Not only the pandemic, but also the 2020 Olympic Games helped in the development of golf in Slovakia. For the first time in history, Rory Sabbatini the Slovak golfer started with a double cross on his chest. Thanks to him, many prejudices against this sport have changed.

Abstract:
Austrian part of the Austrian-Slovak cross-border region in the hinterland of Bratislava is attractive for life to many Slovaks who have decided to move in here in recent years. The aim of the paper is to present the issue of cross-border residential suburbanization and transnational migration on the example of the Slovak population living in the Austrian border municipality of Kittsee. Through a questionnaire survey, we were trying to find out in which of the two countries (Slovakia and Austria) the respondents most often perform selected activities of everyday life, and what the reasons for and intensity of their trips to Slovakia are. The results of the survey showed that the majority of respondents carry out work activities and participate in cultural and sporting events mainly in Slovakia. On the contrary, in the municipality of residence or other Austrian municipalities, they mainly purchase daily consumer goods and their children attend pre-school and school facilities. The most common reason for traveling to Slovakia among the respondents is visiting family, friends and acquaintances. Based on the results, it is possible to state that in the Austrian-Slovak cross-border region there are tendencies of the phenomenon of transnational migration, in which the inhabitants enjoy the benefits of living in the area near the border.

Abstract:
The aim of this article is to evaluate the feasibility of implementing virtual control towers at airports in Slovakia. The introduction provides an overview of virtual control towers, including their concept, usage, advantages, disadvantages, and existing implementations. The paper outlines the requirements for implementing such a system and presents a preliminary design and analysis of virtual control towers for Slovakian airports. The study covers the design and evaluation of the implementation, from a general perspective to specific airport analysis, and proposes a plan for implementing virtual towers in Slovakia based on available information. In conclusion, the author discusses the financial and technical aspects of implementation, as well as an assessment of the suitability of this concept for Slovakian airports. Remote towers have been proven to be a viable option for small and medium-sized airports, offering increased flexibility and cost reduction through centralized remote control of multiple airports. However, implementing virtual control towers in Slovakia would come with significant financial implications.

Abstract:
The paper focuses on the sorting of municipal waste by citizens of the Slovak Republic. Waste represents one of the biggest environmental challenges today, which affects not only Slovakia, but the whole world. Household waste, or municipal waste, is considered a particularly problematic source of waste. Its amount increases from year to year. In 2020 alone, its amount in the European Union (EU) amounted to 505 kg per person, according to data available on Eurostat, while only 48 % of it was recycled. The Slovak Republic, as an EU member state, must align its waste management policy with EU goals. At the same time, waste management, which should be environmentally friendly and use secondary materials contained in waste, is one of the critical elements of EU environmental policy. Major part of municipal waste in some EU countries still ends up in landfills and Slovakia is no exception despite the fact waste sorting is mandatory there. Just smaller part of municipal waste is recycled. The paper examines influence of selected factors on sorting of municipal waste by citizens of the Slovak Republic. It determines whether gender, age, income, household size and sufficient information about where the sorted waste ends up have some influence on sorting of municipal waste by citizens of the Slovak Republic.

Abstract:
The share of products with higher added value is constantly decreasing in Slovakia's agri-food exports and the share of basic agricultural raw materials with low added value is increasing. Commercial retail chains sell especially products without added value. On the other side, products that have undergone a processing are imported from abroad. According to the latest survey of the Slovak Food Chamber of Agriculture in 2016, the share of Slovak products on retailers and retail chains is only 39.91%, with 38.9% in 2015 and 2014.with increase of only 1%. Most of the agri-food products produced in Slovakia are at most represented in commodities: eggs, milk, honey and at least in the following categories: processed vegetables, packaged meat and processed fruit. The main objective of presented paper is to show, that Slovak farmers rather sell raw milk instead of selling added value processed products. A big difference can be found between milk and dairy products, where up to 20% is the difference in the representation of these products in the commercial chains. This fact means, that the Slovak farmers produce enough milk, but it is convenient for them to sell milk as a raw material instead of processing it in their own direction and selling the processed products. Raw milk is exported abroad and then comes back to the Slovak market with an added value as processed product. The survey, which was carried out on all trade chains, showed that the share of Slovak milk in the chain is 63%. An important finding is also the presence of individual dairy products that are produced in Slovakia. The result of the survey showed that the largest share of Slovak dairy products in the domestic market is 51% cottage cheese and sweet / sour cream 55% lowest ripening cheese 40%and processed cheese and cheese spread 43%.

Abstract:
Like the rest of Central Europe, Slovakia has been a multicultural and multilingual society for centuries. Although Slovak is recognized as the official language, there are many other languages spoken in the country. Due to historical reasons, the largest minority communities are Hungarian, Roma, Czech and Rusyn, but the number of bilingual and multilingual speakers varies according to the region, with the highest concentration in Western and Eastern Slovakia. In contemporary Slovakia, bilingualism and multilingualism also results from international migration, globalization or mixed marriages. In this environment children are often exposed to more than one language and experiencing or acquiring another language(s) becomes natural part of their socialization. This paper provides an overview of the linguistic situation and sociolinguistic context of bilingualism and multilingualism as a common phenomenon in the territory of Slovakia and presents the most recent studies in bilingual and multilingual competence in children. Our research focuses mainly on the questions of language differentiation, code-switching, code-mixing, and natural interpreting skills. A few examples of short dialogues are provided to illustrate the features of bilingual communication. The findings are based on the error analysis of spontaneous and elicited production of language and the outcomes of experimental tests carried out in form of a number of individual case studies of children in Slovakia.

Majzlíková, Erika. "The Impact of Automation on Employment Growth in Slovakia." In EDAMBA 2021 : 24th International Scientific Conference for Doctoral Students and Post-Doctoral Scholars. University of Economics in Bratislava, 2022. http://dx.doi.org/10.53465/edamba.2021.9788022549301.286-296.

Full text
Abstract:
The aim of the paper is to examine the relationship between employment growth and automation probabilities (substitution potentials) for occupations in Slovakia. We use detailed employment data provided by Trexima Bratislava, automation probabilities by Frey and Osborne (2017) and substitution potentials by Dengler and Matthes (2018). The results show that between 2014 and 2019, there was an overall increase in employment on the Slovak labor market. However, occupations at a higher risk of automation experienced lower employment growth during the examined period. Even though these results are confirmed by regression analysis, the aim is not to provide any causal interpretation, since the risk of automation (substitution potential) is not the only explanatory factor for the employment growth in Slovakia.

Učeň, Peter. The Russia–Ukraine War and the Radicalization of Political Discourse in Slovakia. European Center for Populism Studies (ECPS), March 2023. http://dx.doi.org/10.55271/rp0029.

Full text
Abstract:
The report opens with a reflection on the political actors who have been labelled and analysed as populists in the modern history of Slovakia. Then, it assesses the impact of the Russian aggression in Ukraine by taking into account the broader group of radical challengers to the liberal-democratic notion of “politics as usual” in Slovakia who operate beyond the populist Radical Right. Overall, the report finds that while the Russia–Ukraine war has contributed to the radicalization of the public discourse in Slovakia, it has not engendered new populist or radical actors nor caused notable changes in the ideational profiles and political strategies of existing ones.
