Informiranje jugoslavenskih građana na radu u inozemstvu
Informing Yugoslav Citizens Temporarily Working Abroad

Summary/Abstract: Communication with our citizens abroad is shaped on the basis the conviction that their emigrant status is provincial. It is becoming increasingly clear, however, that the "provisionality" extends over their whole working life. Therefore the aim of this communication, defined as "objective, complete, and timely information on events in the country and abroad" should be substantially expanded. It should include the emigrants' involvement in the socio-political, economical, cultural, educational and sporting life of the country. This can be effective only if such communication corresponds to the genuine needs of the emigrant population. On the other hand, what is missing includes also the reverse direction of communication, namely the informing of our citizens about the emigrants' problems. Our mass media carry almost no contributions on this topic. Research in this area might be a real basis for this kind of change in communication.
