Abstract

The history of public relations in Slovenia, which as a nation has exerted great influence on the development of public relations (PR) in Central and Eastern Europe, is periodized in three eras — antecedents (before 1960), formative (1960s to 1990s) and modern (1990s onwards). It shows that there have been long-standing influences on modern PR, although current understandings of the practices are linked to Western models.
