- Summary/Abstract:In describing the geographical picture of the Slavic world it is not a description of the territory of this younger Asian colonization, just as it is beyond the scope of this discussion to describe the geographical conditions of Slavic colonization overseas, even if very numerous today. We will be describing the geographical conditions of the "Slavic homeland", that is, the area in which the Slavs have lived since time immemorial, or which they occupied in times so ancient that their settlement has long since erased the memory of those innumerable national units or parts thereof that inhabited these areas before the arrival of the Slavs. And these are only European areas. Today's territory inhabited by Slavic peoples in Europe is not a closed area, nor geographically unified, just as there is no single Slavic nation. It is divided by the German-Hungarian-Romanian wedge into two parts that have no direct national connections. The northern region is inhabited by tribes: Russian, Polish, Lusatian-Serbian and Czechoslovak, southern Slovenian, Serbo-Croatian and Bulgarian. It is therefore impossible to present a unified geographical picture of the Slavic territory, but we will adhere to the division into 3 parts, as given by Prof. Niederle in his division of Slavic ethnography: into the area of the Eastern, Western and Southern Slavs, although from a natural-geographical point of view this division is not completely adjacent, but it corresponds to the cultural-geographical classification.

- Summary/Abstract:There is no work yet in which Slavic statistics have been studied by a professional comparative method. Researchers of the Slavic world have been content with mere — usually only approximate — findings of the number of members of the Slavic peoples. At this stage, there is still a “statistical-ethnographic overview of contemporary Slavism”, which is what the book by Prof. T. D. Florinsky »Славянское йлемя« aims to be; in addition to data concerning the number of individual Slavic peoples, we find only mentions of the confessional relations of some of them. Only Prof. L. Niederle systematically took into account in his “Slavic World” the most important demographic elements such as population density, population growth, age, occupation and literacy. // In this study I can limit myself to compiling the most important statistical data on the Slavic peoples and Slavic states, as far as statistical sources allow. The scientific study of the population problems of the Slavic peoples is only a task for the future.

- Summary/Abstract:The World War brought political emancipation to those Slavic nations that had until then been politically living in foreign states. The Poles succeeded in restoring their once rather large empire, the Czechs not only achieved their former independence for themselves, but were able to found a new Czechoslovak state together with the Slovaks, and the fate of the Serbs, Croats and Slovenes was no less favorable, as they united in the great Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes. Of the remaining Slavic monarchies that existed before the World War, only Bulgaria — the youngest state — retained its previous state form. On the other hand, Russia, the oldest Slavic empire, which alone preserved state continuity, experienced such radical political upheavals at the end of the World War that it completely went out of its previous tracks and to this day provides a picture of political conditions completely disorganized, the likes of which have never been seen before in the history of all mankind. It is all the more regrettable that the Russians, the largest Slavic nation, embarked on a world war not only in their own interests, but also in the interests of other Slavic nations, and now their name is actually erased from the history of Slavism. The former Russia forms only a part of the nationless Union of Soviet Socialist Republics. For this reason, the world war means not a plus for the Slavs as a whole, but rather a great minus. For there is no doubt that without a strong national Russia, the new Slavic states will not survive for a long time in their present form.

- Summary/Abstract:When we write about philosophy among the Slavs, it does not mean that we want to describe in detail the history of the philosophy of individual Slavic tribes, recording here and there a book from individual branches of philosophy. Our intention is to present Slavic philosophy, as it manifests itself mainly in the world and life outlook, from a unified point of view, from which it would also follow whether this philosophy is characterized by any special feature by which it would differ from the philosophy of individual Western nations and to show this feature on the examples of individual Slavic philosophers. Secondly, it is necessary to address the question here whether there are any philosophical problems at all, or at least given by the historical situation in philosophy, which are particularly suited to the Slavic nature, whether there is, therefore, any Slavic task in philosophy and whether individual Slavic philosophers sought to meet it. From this follows the question of which European philosophical currents particularly influenced Slavic philosophy and what coloration they acquired in Slavic guise, and secondly, how and to what extent Slavic philosophers contributed originally to the solution of general philosophical problems. And of course, in doing so, one cannot ignore the questions of whether some philosophers considered the task of Slavism, for example, of individual Slavic nations, as it is assigned to them in modern culture, and whether these ideas gained a response in Slavism, and how they manifested themselves.
