Abstract
The subject of the reserch project is the maintenance and shift of Slovene language within the autochtonuos Slovene minorities in Italy, Austria and Hungary in the period from the end of World War I on to today. Language-speakers demography data and estimates show that the ethnic structure of the population in the three minority areas has changed continuously while the relative number of Slovenes has been dropping in the entire period considered. The study will first try to determine which are the causes of the demographic fall of the Slovene population and to what degree the demografic fall is due to the gradual shift of the use of Slovene. The main topic of the reseach will be the causes for the language maintenance or shift within the single communities. The following determinants of language maintenance or shift will be discussed for each of the minorities: 1. political history of the minority and political pressures on the Slovene ethnic identity; 2. migrations in the area of the autochtonous (historical) Slovene settlement after the World War I and the consequent compactness of the Slovene population; 3. the present linguistic situation of the Slovene minority, namely 3.1 legal status of Slovene language, 3.2 domains where Slovene is used, 3.3 teaching of Slovene in schools, 4. attitudedes of the minority members towards Slovene language. The causes for the Slovene language shift within the single Slovene minorities will be compared and discussed. The thesis on the determinants of the shift will be discussed with reference to earlier sociolinguistic findings (Joshua Fishman, Christina Bratt Paulston, John Edwards, Tom Priestly, Albina Nečak-Luk and others).
