<p>Predmet istraživanja ove disertacije je slovačkosrpska<br />dvojezičnost u Vojvodini. Dvojezičnost<br />je vrlo česta pojava u svetu te je i slovačkosrpska<br />dvojezičnost u savremenoj multijezičkoj<br />vojvođanskoj sredini sasvim prirodna. Postoji vi&scaron;e oblika dvojezičnosti, a prirodni dvojezični govornici su upravo pripadnici manjina (kao &scaron;to</p><p>je slučaj Slovaka u Vojvodini). Da li će<br />dvojezični Slovak iz Vojvodine upotrebiti jedan<br />(slovački) ili drugi (srpski) jezik zavisi od<br />komunikativne situacije kao i od sagovornika<br />(da li je i on dvojezičan ili jednojezičan).<br />Jezička kompetencija u oba jezika kod svih<br />slovačko-srpskih govornika nije uvek ista i u<br />njihovoj komunikaciji često dolazi do me&scaron;anja<br />kodova. Ovo istraživanje u najkraćem obuhvata<br />sledeća pitanja: 1) kakvi sve oblici slovačkosrpske<br />dvojezičnosti u Vojvodini postoje,<br />2) gde se sve paralelno koriste ova dva jezika,<br />3) na kom nivou je jezička kompetencija<br />slovačko-srpskih dvojezičnih govornika i<br />4) stav slovačko-srpskih dvojezičnih govornika<br />o svojoj jezičkoj kompetenciji na jednom ili<br />drugom jeziku. Op&scaron;ti cilj istraživanja bio je<br />detaljnije i sveobuhvatnije sagledavanje<br />slovačko-srpskog bilingvizma<br />u Vojvodini</p> / <p>The topic of the research in this PhD<br />thesis is Slovak-Serbian bilingualism in<br />Vojvodina. Bilingualism is a frequent<br />occurrence in the world so Slovak-Serbian<br />bilingualism in the contemporary multilingual<br />Vojvodinian setting is quite natural. There are<br />several forms of bilingualism, one of which<br />includes natural bilingual speakers who are members of ethnic minorities (as is the case of</p><p>Slovaks in Vojvodina). Whether a bilingual<br />Slovak from Vojvodina will use one language<br />(Slovak) or the other language (Serbian)<br />depends on the communicative situation and the<br />interlocutor (if he/she is bilingual or<br />monolingual). Linguistic competence in both<br />languages is not the same with all Slovak-<br />Serbian speakers and in their communication<br />there is a lot of code-switching.<br />This research in brief included the<br />following questions: 1) what forms of Slovak-<br />Serbian bilingualism in Vojvodina are there; 2)<br />where are these two languages uses in parallel;<br />3) at what level is the competence of Slovak-<br />Serbian bilingual speakers; 4) what are the<br />attitudes of Slovak-Serbian bilingual speakers<br />regarding their linguistic competence in one or<br />the other language. The general aim of the<br />research was to present a detailed and<br />comprehensive picture of Slovak-Serbian<br />bilingualism in Vojvodina.</p>

Nowadays the world is becoming increasingly economically connected, and cultural diversity of employees is gaining importance as a crucial competitive advantage. Cross-cultural communication ability is becoming a key management skill in multinational firms and is equally important for other employees who are exposed to other cultures in the workplace. This work mainly focuses on cultural specifics of management in multinational firms. The goal of this thesis is to discover how different national cultures influence management of people, particularly work relationships, management tools and organization structures. The author discovers this through cultural dimensions that she updates for the Czech Republic and Slovakia for her work using methodology of Fons Trompenaars. The author tests three hypotheses: about the development of preferences of cultural dimensions in time, differences in preferences of cultural dimensions of Czechs and Slovaks and differences in preferences of cultural dimensions based on people's gender, age and the number of years spent abroad. The work also presents mapping of changes of attitudes in specific work and personal situations of Czechs and Slovaks over a period of time. The work additionally analyzes the influence of economic factors on work attitudes and preferences of cultural dimensions and identifies areas of potential conflicts between the cultures of Czechs and Slovaks in the workplace. It also compares results with other researches about cultural dimensions and cultural standards. The work concludes by presenting culturally specific recommendations for management of Czechs and Slovaks.

This thesis deals with the development and activities of compatriot organizations of Czechs and Slovaks in the 20th century that were associated in the Union of clubs of Czechs and Slovaks in Switzerland. The first clubs, which did not last long, were established in the 1860s. The origins of more stable organizations date back to the beginning of the twentieth century, when clubs such as Czechoslovak Beseda Slovan in Geneva and Czechoslovak Beseda Svatopluk Čech in Zurich were established. These organizations expanded after the big emigrant wave caused by the Warsaw Pact invasion of Czechoslovakia. This period between the years 1968 and 1990 is the main objective of the following research. The thesis is divided into four chapters. The first one introduces some basic notions needed for the thesis and puts the existence of compatriot clubs in Switzerland in a broader context. At the same time, it deals with the most important emigrant waves from Czechoslovakia with emphasis on those emigrants that left for Switzerland. The second chapter deals with the very development of compatriot movement in Switzerland before the critical year 1968. Furthermore, this chapter is divided into various sections on the basis of selecting important turning points in the development of compatriot organizations, such as...
