Minorities should stop folklorizing themselves and learn to present themselves in a broader context. They would no longer be a small parallel society or a state within a state, but part of society. As president of the ZSO, Marjan Sturm advocated a policy of dialogue, for which he was appreciated, even honored, but also sharply criticized. In what is probably his most personal book to date, he reflects on his learning process over the last two decades and on a future-oriented minority policy.
Edited by Wilfried Graf and Gudrun Kramer (German edition) and Boris Jesih (Slovenian edition).
