STEFAN RINDLISBACHER – ZGODOVINA NA ŠPICI
25. marca 2026 smo v okviru cikla Zgodovina na Špici gostili novo predavanje na Inštitutu za novejšo zgodovino.
Predavatelj Stefan Rindlisbacher je v prispevku »Rjave korenine zelenega gibanja: skrajna desnica in varstvo okolja po letu 1945« osvetlil manj znano vlogo, ki so jo pri oblikovanju okoljskega aktivizma in zelenih političnih gibanj po letu 1945 odigrali skrajno desničarski akterji.
V predavanju je predstavil, kako so okoljska gibanja iz šestdesetih in sedemdesetih let 20. stoletja ter poznejše zelene stranke pogosto razumljeni kot tesno povezani z novo levico, demokratičnimi inovacijami ter prizadevanji za ekološko pravičnost in trajnost. Ob tem pa je opozoril tudi na manj raziskano plat teh gibanj: vpliv posameznikov in idej, zaznamovanih z rasizmom, evgeniko in skrajno desnimi političnimi pogledi.
Posebej je izpostavil primere iz nemško govorečega prostora, kjer so pri oblikovanju zgodnjega okoljskega aktivizma in zelenih strank sodelovali tudi nekdanji nacisti in skrajno desničarski aktivisti. Predavanje je ponudilo tudi začetni raziskovalni vpogled v primere, kot je Slovenija, kjer so se ekološke stranke razvijale v drugačnih zgodovinskih in političnih okoliščinah.
Dogodek je potekal v angleškem jeziku, v prostorih INZ in prek Zooma.

STEFAN RINDLISBACHER – HISTORY ON THE EDGE
On 25 March 2026, we hosted a new lecture at the Institute of Contemporary History as part of the History on the Edge series.
In his lecture “ Brown Roots of the Green Movement: The Far Right and Environmental Protection after 1945,” Stefan Rindlisbacher shed light on the lesser-known role that far-right actors played in shaping environmental activism and green political movements after 1945.
The lecture explored how environmental movements of the 1960s and 1970s, as well as the green parties founded in the 1980s, are often understood as closely linked to the New Left, democratic innovation, and calls for ecological justice and sustainability. At the same time, it also highlighted a less explored dimension of these movements: the influence of individuals and ideas marked by racism, eugenics, and far-right political views.
Particular attention was given to examples from the German-speaking world, where former Nazis and far-right activists also participated in the formation of early environmental activism and green parties. The lecture also offered an initial research perspective on cases such as Slovenia, where ecological parties developed in significantly different historical and political circumstances.
The event was held in English, both at the Institute of Contemporary History and via Zoom.
