Titoism I: Slovenia from Prehistory to Tito – Balkan History

Today begins our series on the ideology of the communist dictator of the former Yugoslavia, Tito, and I'm telling it specifically from the perspective of my own family's ethnic background, the Slovenians. I give the history of the formation of the Slovenian identity up till Tito's time, so that we will be ready to see Titoism from the Slovenian perspective next time, when we talk about Tito himself.
