- Abstract
The present paper traces the recent history of four Serbian Orthodox settlements in the Slovene region of Bela Krajina close to the border with Croatia. It includes an outline of how notables, journalists, politicians and ethnographers throughout the 20th century up to the end of Yugoslavia and beyond characterized the local population; thereby it concentrates on the influence of diff erent forms of collective identity (Serb, Croat, Slovene, Yugoslav) on the inhabitants of the four villages. Consequently and due their peripheral location on the Slovene-Croat linguistic and national divide the local population had to deal with diff erent off ers and imputations.
