Title: MEJE IN SPOMINI NANJE<br>BORDERS AND BORDER MEMORIES</br>
Abstract: The article concisely arranges the facts and memories of a century of shifting borders along the boundary between today's Slovenia and Hungary. As borders primarily symbolize the physical strength of a state, they are an essential subject to people living in borderlands anywhere in the world. Following the Great War, the 1919 delineation of the border in what had for centuries been a stable area (Slovene March) caused upheaval not only for political actors but also for those persons who suddenly found themselves living in separate states. Later, in 1948, the border became part of the Iron Curtain, which completely paralyzed communications in the Yugoslavian (Slovenian)-Hungarian cross-border region and branded it with a highly specific historical and social dynamic. The article illustrates these processes on two levels by providing both a condensed historical sketch of the events taking place at and by the border as well as an analysis of the recorded and spoken memories of the region's people, now passing into collective memory. The narratives of the border presented in this analysis thus move between discursive and experiential aspects.
