Summary/Abstract: The text problematizes the category of cultural transfers as a concept that is relevant for describing the dynamics of the social process. Especially for the multi-ethnic states, like the Habsburg Monarchy or the Kingdom of Yugoslavia, concepts related to the reality of a national state are not relevant. The category of cultural transfers helps, thus, to understand changes in the cultural field after the collapse of the Austria-Hungary. The paper focuses on the question of how the change of activities of various actors in the literary or linguistic field answers the problem of the shift of power from the old centres to the new ones. A new interpretative model is proposed, alongside with the introduction to the collective publication.
