Intolerance Monitor Report 03

In third Intolerance Monitor Report we treat the issue of intolerance in Slovene public discourse. The examples, which are far from being isolated cases, are obvious. So far, each yearly edition of the Intolerance Monitor Report has focused on one “story of intolerance”. This can be seen both in the previous two issues and in the present one. Some of the stories appearing in the previous two Reports continue, some of them remained documents of their period, others receive attention for the first time. The articles in this issue try to cover the topical instances of intorelance in the year 2003, and they also take into account some more wideranging and less time-bound topics that are nevertheless closely connected to the question of intolerance.
