| Description | Migration is an important factor in the population development of Slovakia and its regions at the end of the 19th and in the first half of the 20th century. In this period, however, there are only limited sources of data that could reflect the given process in its complex form. While foreign migration in Slovakia is relatively well researched in a historical context, much less attention is paid to migration within the borders of Slovakia, or interwar Czechoslovakia. The aim of this article is to point out the methodological possibilities of using the results of the 1921 and 1930 censuses in the analysis of internal migration in Slovakia and within Czechoslovakia. Through the concept of natives and previous residence, we also tried to identify not only migration volumes, but also the direction of migration flows and the main source and destination areas. The issue of migration between the individual countries of Czechoslovakia and the presence of foreign nationals is also an equally important discussed issue. |
