Discourses having appeared during the past few years in Slovenia in connection with the establishing of the Islamic religious and cultural center in Ljubljana, were successfully based upon the myths of the border orientalism (Gingrich 1998) about the Turkish raids into the territory of the present Slovenia in the Middle Ages. In these discourses, the Moslems in Slovenia were often simply equalled to medieval Turks , or they were attributed alleged cruelty, characteristic of their supposed medieval ancestors . Tales about Moslems and Turks were triggered by politicians, supported by media, and discussed by people from different ranks, from state officials, representatives of the Roman Catholic church, theologists, intellectuals to citizens, who took part in these discussions through media. The present article analyzes the use of myths of border orientalism, which were abused by different nationalis and islamophobic actors in the mobilization against the building of a mosque in Ljubljana, thus contributing to the construct of Otherness of Moslems in SloveniaDiskurzi, ki so se v preteklih nekaj letih v Sloveniji pojavili v zvezi s postavitvijo Islamskega verskega in kulturnega centra (IVKC) v Ljubljani, so uspešno izkoriščali mite obmejnega orientalizma (Gingrich 1998) o turških vpadih na teritorij današnje Slovenije v srednjem veku. V teh diskurzih se je slovenske muslimane pogosto kratkomalo izenačevalo s srednjeveškimi Turki ali pa se jim je pripisovalo domnevno dokazane okrutne lastnosti, ki naj bi jih izpričali že njihovi domnevni srednjeveški predniki . Naracije o muslimanih in Turkih so sprožili politiki, podprli so jih mediji, vanje pa so posegli ljudje najrazličnejših provenienc, od državnih funkcionarjev, predstavnikov rimskokatoliške cerkve, teologov, intelektualcev do občanov, ki so debate spremljali in se jih tudi udeleževali preko medijev. Pričujoči članek analizira rabe mitov obmejnega orientalizma, ki so jih v mobilizaciji proti gradnji džamije v Ljubljani izrabljali različni nacionalistični in islamofobni akterji in tako konstruirali Drugost slovenskih muslimanovTEXTznanstveno časopisjejournalsSlovenian National E-content AggregatorNational and University Library of SloveniaInštitut za narodnostna vprašanja
