Summary/Abstract: The past cultural activities of pre-war emigrants have dwindled nowadays. After World War II, Argentina welcomed another group of Slovenians. About 6,000 anti-Communist-oriented Slovenian refugees found a new home in this Latin American country. Larger communities of post-war Slovenian emigrants were formed in Greater Buenos Aires, Mendoza, Bariloche and Tucuman. In order to preserve Slovenian language and distinctive identity of the community, the post-war emigrants have established a unique system of Slovenian Saturday schools. In the area of Great Buenos Aires they organize Slovene elementary school courses, Slovene secondary school course Marko Bajuk, and ABC courses in Slovenian for Spanish speakers.
