In the inter-war period, a structure of private insurance companies in which Czech insurance companies had the decisive influence, developed in Slovakia. In the years of existence of the independent Slovak Republic (1939 – 1945), Slovak national capital with government support made a great effort to gain control of the insurance market, mainly at the expense of insurance companies in the Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia. However, the representatives of Reich German insurance companies began a process of capital expansion and demanded a share in the insurance market of the new state. After complex Slovak – German talks, a compromise agreement on division of the property of insurance companies was agreed in November 1940. However, both sides broke this agreement and there was another round of complex negotiations. The result was strengthening of the position of Slovak national capital and maintenance of the influence of the German insurance companies on the level of the end of the 1930s.

The study deals with forms of the Slovak Republic (1939 - 1945) in Slovak theatre after the year 2000. We currently observe a strong dramaturgical tendency to bring to the stages the reflection of historical events from various historical periods, one of the most depicted being the period of World War II. Its themes are found in the productions of the original theatrical plays as well as in the dramatisation of literary works. The first part of the study is devoted to delineation of the Slovak Republic (1939 - 1945) in the productions after 2000 (Tiso [Tiso], Stalo sa prvého septembra [It Happened on 1st September], Rabínka [The Female Rabbi], Holokaust [Holocaust], Povstanie [Uprising], Obchod na korze [The Shop on the Parade], Polnočná omša [Midnight Mass], Tichý bič [The Silent Whip], Kým kohút nezaspieva [Until the Cock Sings]). The second part is focused on the analysis of the selected thematic elements offered by the productions falling within this circle and which appear in the new optics of the so-called second generation.

The third and final part of the study about the Military University (VVŠ) provides information about its course II., which took place in 1942/1944. The author points out to the changes in the educational process, caused by the increasing German influence and promotion of the German military doctrine. An important milestone in the University’s teaching process was the attendance of the learners of the “A” Department – General Staff of the Military University at the internships at German military schools and the three-month course of the General Staff at the Berlin Kriegsakademie. The study further points out to the major impact of the Slovak National Uprising on the Slovak military power, in particular the activity of the Military University, as well as the effort to renew the University’s activity by opening the VVŠ Course III. at the end of 1944, only intended for the learners of the “A” Department – General Staff of the Military University. However, due to the dissolution of the 1st Slovak Republic in spring of 1945, the course was not completed. The study also mentions the unrealistic preparations for the VVŠ Course IV., which did not get past the preparations stage.

Perceived safety or danger is a rising topic in the public psychology. The aim of this paper is to determine the relationship between the perception of safety and sense of coherence in specific sample of the Armed forces of the Slovak Republic. To measure sense of coherence we used questionnaire of life orientation from A. Antonovsky which focuses on personality-related stress-resistance resource. Perceived safety, we explored by the selected items using the main questionnaire from the 5th round of the European Social Survey (ESS). The sample consisted of 204 members of the armed forces of which 93.6% were males. The average age of respondents was 31.43 years (SD = 5,795). Task of members of the Armed forces is: to guarantee the security of the state against external attack by a foreign power, as well as obligations arising from international agreements by which the Slovak Republic is tied. Perceived safety can be in this particular sample negatively affected due to the nature of the profession, and we expect a significant relationship to personality related characteristics of the sense of coherence. Interpretation of the results will be described in more detail in the paper.

Nitra has always been perceived as a town with significant history. Its specific character in the studied period had been shaped by various cultural, artistic, and educational and research institutes. The presence of actors, visual artists, writers, scientists and musicians living in Nitra at the time helped to create the atmosphere where creativity and art flourished. Such a creative and culturally rich milieu stimulated complex intellectual and artistic activity which took place in the town. The article presents selected aspects of cultural life and activities for edification in Nitra from 1939 to 1945.

While poverty has long been a phenomenon closely related to the life cycle of family, in recent decades is increasingly dependent on the economic participation of household members. In addition, this change in post-communist countries is associated with the economic and social transformation, which has led to an increasing income inequality. The study of relationships between work intensity and poverty is only at its beginning in transition countries. Using statistical surveys EU-SILC we analyse the specific effect of work intensity on two indicators of poverty – “at-risk-of-poverty rate“, and the “making ends meet” in the Czech Republic and the Slovak Republic between 2005 and 2013. The analysis is set in the Central European context, which shows a relatively good situation in both countries. The work intensity of households is an important factor of the risk of income poverty and financial difficulties of households. In spite of a certain weakening, it keeps a high importance.

The study analyses a problematic status of the Greek Catholic Church in a political and ideological establishment of the Slovak Republic during 1939 – 1945, as well as the confrontational relationship of both subjects. Slovak Republic – as it is formulated in the Preamble to the Constitution – has identified itself with the (catholic) Christianity, i.e. the concept of National Socialism has originated at the background of a Christian worldview. This ideological construct has adored one (Slovak) nation to indoctrination of a society. Such construct has ultimately led to the discrimination of national minorities, in this case Ruthenian minority, whose members has mostly identified with the Greek Catholic confession. In a regime with a close connection of the Catholic Church and the political system there were fluently applicate undemocratic practices which infringed upon internal affairs and operation of the Greek Catholic Church, primarily its educational system (Greek Catholic Seminary and Theological Academy) in the intention to weaken its internal structure and integrity.

Streets and squares on the Slovak territory were repeatedly renamed during the 20th century. Representatives of political regimes were aware the symbolical and ideological importance of public spaces. During WWII the political regime was openly seeking patterns in Nazi Germany. Ruling Hlinka´s Slovak Peoples Party was interested in the purifying of public spaces. Representatives of previous democratic regime of Czechoslovak republic and exponents of democratic ideas became unwanted. Preferred were different historical figures. The result was list of approved personalities whose names were allowed to use while renaming streets and squares.

There is neither a unified catalogue of administrative sanctions nor a unified code of their application in the Slovak legal system. While the non-existence of such a catalogue is understandable, considering the multitude of areas regulated by administrative law, the absence of a code of application cannot be similarly justified. The Supreme Court of the Slovak Republic attempts to overcome this problem through analogous application of criminal law institutes also on the process of imposing administrative sanctions - that is on situations for which these institutions weren’t conceived. This article analyses conditions under which the analogy in the area of administrative sanctioning should be allowed and warns of the risks involved in the flat imposition of criminal law procedures in the sphere of administrative sanctions.

The aim of the paper is to define the main features of the reverse mortgage, to present the socio-economic situation of seniors in the Slovak Republic, to present the results of a survey aimed at the interest of seniors in using a reverse mortgage and formulating recommendations for application practice. The questionnaire survey was realised nationwide in all regions on a sample of 925 respondents. Of the total number of respondents, only 16% of property owners showed interest in a reverse mortgage. The answers of the respondents showed that the main reason for the lack of interest in the reverse mortgage is the unwillingness to break the intergenerational property transfer, which confirms the traditionally strong family relations and family solidarity in the Slovak Republic.

The article deals with the international and national legal framework, based on the Agreement on the International Energy Programme of 1974. It points out historical consequences of this Agreement and of the establishment of the International Energy Agency. It deals with the different aspects of this special international organisation: with its membership, governance and its relation to other international organisations, namely to the European Union. Further, a special attention is paid to the way, how the framework created by the Agreement of 1974 was transformed into the national legal framework of the Slovak Republic. The fourth part of this paper contains overview of the measures, laid down in the Agreement in order to cope with the danger of oil shortages. The author classifies these measures (emergerncy stocks, emergency measures, oil sharing system) according to the traditional theories of the administrative law and points out, that while some very important decision competencies have been transfered to the International Energy Agency by the Agreement, most of the administrative measures, including the state control and administrative sanctions must be executed by the national administrative authorities.

The article deals with the principle of proportionality, which, despite being very well-known and widely used in other European countries, has received quite a reluctant treatment in Slovakia. It was only in 2009 that the principle of proportionality was dealt with in an upto-date fashion by Constitutional Court of the Slovak Republic in two cases concerning freedom of speech. The article uses these cases as an example through which it tries to explain the structure, origins and ideas underlying the principle of proportionality with special regard to Robert Alexy’s theory of balancing of constitutional rights.

It was exactly seventy years ago when the art and literature monthly Elán, a project shared by poet and editor Ján Smrek and publisher Leopold Mazáč, was moved to the wartime capital of Slovakia. Although originally its establishing and existence were closely related to Prague, signing the contract with the Slovak Writers´ Society on 29 September 1939 made it possible to transfer the magazine to Bratislava, where it was then published until its end in 1947. The goal of the paper is to present the basic yet little known facts about the wartime period of publishing the magazine and to show to what extent the new economic situation as well as the new geopolitical and social context affected its character. The study primarily builds on researching archive materials, Elán´s wartime issues and selected contemporary print media. It is a follow-up to the study Deviatka osudová pre Elán i jeho redaktora /The Nine Fateful for Both the Magazine and Its Editor/, dealing with the circumstances of transferring the magazine to Bratislava, published in Slovenská literatúra in 2010.

The article focuses on the contemporary doctrine (doctrines) of causation within the system of contractual and tortious liability as applied by Slovak courts with a special regard to professional liability (liability of experts). On the background of an almost non-existent scholarly debate on conceptual framework issues of liability including a doctrine of causation, the author undertakes to find out whether Slovak courts tend – even while lacking a clearly formulated theory of causation – decide in concordance with the figures of modern causation theories (burden of proof, uncertain causation, hypothetical causation) or how they cope with still unsettled questions within the liability system of various European states (loss of chance, pure economic loss, etc.). This is done by analysing the merits and the reasoning of judgments of Slovak courts of all instances from the perspective of modern concepts of causation as developed by foreign legal science and case law. The author comes to the conclusion that the courts prefer a rather case-by-case approach without any (or almost any) insightful reasoning of why there is a causal link or why there is no causation. The lack of uniformity and divergences within the Slovak case law might be derived from the lack of scholarly developed theories of causation. Although the Slovak case law has not dealt directly with any of the figures of causation doctrine(s), it is possible to extrapolate hypothetical answers on some of these figures from the current Slovak case law.

In the post-1939 Slovakia, the government adopted several measures to exercise undue control over its citizens and influence their views and opinions. During World War II, a number of censorship decrees were issues which sought to control what information was made public in the press, on the radio and in movies and other artistic productions. This paper examines book censorship during that period, analysing the role of specific institutions which were tasked with excising the undesirable literary production, describing the process of „cleaning up“ libraries and looking at what works and which authors were considered unacceptable by the ruling regime, focusing on the city of Nitra.

In the case of arbitration clauses in consumer contracts, there is a conflict of two fundamental values of private law − freedom and equality. On the one hand, arbitral prooceedings is an expression of the general freedom of contractual parties that allows an agreement about a person of arbitrator, location, procedure and form of arbitration. On the other hand, there is a consumer protection, when consumer is in a position of weaker contractual party. The author presents the nature of arbitral prooceedings, the interpretation and definition of arbitration agreement according to the national law of the Slovak republic. The author explains also methods for assessing the acceptability of the arbitration clause and methods for application of rules set in Civil Code and Council Directive 93/13/EEC of 5 April 1993 on unfair terms in consumer contracts. In the case of assessing the acceptability according to general clause, the author interprets criterions of this clause, especially criterion of standard term, that has not been individually negotiated, criterion of causing significant imbalance in the partie‘s rights and obligations arising under the contract, to the detriment of the consumer. He also discusses the interpretation and possible application of the principle of good faith, which is contained in Council Directive 93/13/EEC of 5 April 1993 on unfair terms in consumer contracts, but hasn´t been transformed into the Civil Code. In the case of assessing the acceptability according to the method of indicative list of terms, author explains the difference between the method of black list of unfair terms used in Civil code and the method of gray list found in Council Directive 93/13/EEC of 5 April 1993 on unfair terms in consumer contracts.

The Constitution of the Slovak Republic distinguishes among the constitution, its amendments and constitutional laws. The change in the constitution is made by means of constitutional laws. In specialized literature the question has risen whether the distinction between the constitution and constitutional laws does not imply the hierarchic relationship between the said types of legal regulations. Some authors have deducted from it different legal consequences for the applicability of the constitutional law, where the constitution is not changed directly by its amendment, but indirectly through an alone-standing constitutional law. The author of this article rejects this view, particularly with regard to the need to draw a distinction between legal norms at the level of the Constitutional Code and their formal expression through the constitutional law. He also points out to the defectiveness of the legal opinion that derives the hierarchic relationship referred to above from Article 152 (4) of the Constitution. On the contrary, the article deals with negative trends from the view of the recent practice of the National Council, consisting in the adoption of constitutional laws regulating in detail the partial areas of the law, which leads to the circumvention of the rules of protection of the fundamental rights and freedoms guaranteed by the constitution against their infringement on the part of the public authorities. Together with adoption of ad hoc constitutional laws, the author regards the said phenomena as unacceptable interventions into the Constitutional Order.

The author deals with the scarcely processed topic of the involvement of the Slovak Screening Division (SD) in the anti-partisan operations in the occupied territory of the USSR after its transfer under the territorial competence of the Wehrmacht in the Reich Commissariat Ukraine in September 1941. The author states that the direct involvement of SD in the fight against partisans peaked in the first months of 1942. This was connected with the dislocation changes resulting from the German requirement for the Slovak units to participate in the protection of the of the important rail track, Pinsk – Gomeľ, and the anti-partisan operations in the surrounding. During March, the 102 Infantry Regiment of SD was involved into extensive anti-partisan operations of the occupational apparatus, which drastically affected even the local population. The peak of the German-Slovak cooperation at the turn of March and April 1942 was the operation titled Bamberg in South-eastern Belarus, which represented a “pilot” project of the large-scale anti-partisan operations. The nature of the operations was punitive and predatory and affected the civil population prevailingly. The effort for objective interpretation of these events is documented by the fact that the author based his analyses on the German history literature, which have not been considered in this topic as yet.

This article focuses on the content analysis of the theoretical concept of non-democratic regimes by Juan J. Linz in his major publication Totalitarian and Authoritarian Regimes (2000) and its application to the regime of the Slovak Republic in the years 1939 – 1945. The aim of this paper is to define the character of regime in Slovakia and determine whether the regime of the first Slovak republic was directed more to the totalitarian or authoritarian type of the non-democracies. The main aim of the work is reflected in the structure of the paper, divided into two chapters. The first one describes the principal characteristics of totalitarianism and authoritarianism and difference between them. The second one analyses three basic features of authoritarianism – limited political pluralism, mentalities and political mobilization – and applies them to Slovak terms in 1939 – 1945. The application has shown there features which are identical with characteristics of authoritarianism specified by Linz. Therefore, we cannot say the regime of the first Slovak Republic was totalitarian, but it was regime which tended to authoritarian type of non-democracies.
