The research details the Slovenian situation in the 1st and 2nd Yugoslavia. The author establishes that the Slovenian political and cultural players were truly very dissatisfied with Yugoslavia, but that Slovenia saw rapid cultural and economic development. In this sense the author underlines that the Slovenian separation from Yugoslavia in 1991 was caused by the political blockades and incapacity for democratic transformation as well as by insurmountable differences in the democratisation dynamics. These differences were most obvious in political processes taking place in Serbia and Slovenia.

In the following contribution the author showed Slovenian-Croatian relationship on the turn of 60s and 70s of the 20th century. Slovenia and Croatia represented nonformal “bloc of developed” in Yugoslavia. The Croatian leadership lost the support of Slovene counterparts in 1971, when the Croatian leadership was giving in to nationalistic pressures. Slovenia took a very moderate position on the unrest in Croatia, and Slovene political leaders decided that their representatives in federal institutions would express their views only if called upon to do so or if required.
