Demokracija is a Slovenian right-wing weekly news and political magazine published in Ljubljana, Slovenia.
History and profile[]
Demokracija was founded in January 1990[1] as a dissident and pro-Spring magazine.[2] The magazine is published weekly on Thursdays.[3][4] Its headquarters is in Ljubljana.[3]
Demokracija has a right-wing and conservative stance.[5][6] In its early days the weekly was considered to be close to the Slovenian Democratic Union.[1] Then it is considered to have links with the Slovenian Democratic Party (SDS).[7]
The magazine focuses on political news in Slovenia and in the world, but also covers sections about history, culture, film, sports and entertainment.[4]
In July 2017, Ripost, a Hungarian media company, obtained a majority share in Demokracija's parent company, Nova obzorja. Ripost has deep ties to the ruling political party in Hungary and Prime Minister Viktor Orbán. The Slovenian Democratic Party has retained a 42% share in the parent company. Ripost is also a significant shareholder in another media company tied to SDS, Nova24TV.[8][7]
