Slovenes living in the border areas of the neighbouring countries are the Slovenian indigenous population. From a historical and cultural point of view, the areas where they live are also Slovenian.</div><div>A large number of Slovenes began to emigrate to overseas countries in the first half of the 18th century. Most of them emigrated between the mid-19th century and the First World War. The period after the Second World War is characterized by three major emigration waves: the first (1945) refers to political emigrants that lived in Europe during the first years after the war, then they mainly emigrated to overseas countries; in the 1960s, a second wave followed when many workers emigrated to the Western European countries due to more favourable economic conditions; the third wave represents the so-called "brain drain" or experts going abroad. In their new homelands, Slovenes gathered in communities according to religious, political and cultural principles. They cultivated their culture, language, customs and preserved the written word.</div><div>Izven meja Republike Slovenije živi kar petina pripadnikov slovenskega naroda, zamejcev in izseljencev. Zamejci so slovensko avtohtono prebivalstvo, ki živi v obmejnih območjih sosednjih držav. Zgodovinsko in kulturno so ta območja tudi slovenska.&nbsp;</div><div>Slovenci so se v večjem številu začeli izseljevati v prekomorske dežele v 1. polovici 18. stoletja. Največji val izseljevanja je potekal od sredine 19. stoletja do prve svetovne vojne. Za obdobje po drugi svetovni vojni so značilni trije pomembnejši izseljenski valovi: v prvem (1945) gre za slovensko politično emigracijo, ki je prva leta po vojni živela v Evropi, nato so se večinoma izselili v prekomorske države; v šestdesetih letih 20. stoletja je sledil drugi val, ko se je v dežele zahodne Evrope zaradi ugodnih ekonomskih razmer izseljevala množica delavcev; tretji val predstavlja t. i. »beg možganov« oz. odhajanje strokovnjakov v tujino. V novih domovinah so se Slovenci združevali v skupnosti po verskem, političnem, kulturnem principu. Negovali so svojo kulturo, jezik, običaje in skrbeli za pisano besedo.</div>Slovenians emigrated from their homeland during different historical periods and they left traces everywhere they had settled. They cultivated their culture, language, customs and the written word. One-fifth of the Slovenian population is living outside the borders of the Republic of Slovenia. A part of rich “production” of the Slovenian diaspora is now available in digitized form on the dLib.si portal, where you can browse through various journals and numerous booksSlovenci so se v različnih zgodovinskih obdobjih izseljevali iz matične domovine in povsod, kjer so se naselili, pustili svoje sledi. Negovali so svojo kulturo, jezik, običaje in skrbeli za pisano besedo. Izven meja Republike Slovenije živi kar petina pripadnikov slovenskega naroda. Tiskane besede, ki je nastajala in nastaja pod slovenskimi izseljenskimi in zamejskimi peresi, je zato veliko.
