The 2012–2013 Slovenian protests were a series of anti-establishment and anti-government protests. Protesters expressed disapproval with the country's ruling political elite, including Maribor mayor Franc Kangler, prime minister Janez Janša, and parliamentary opposition leader Zoran Janković (all of whom stood accused of corruption by Commission for the Prevention of Corruption).{{cite news |title=Kangler je korumpiran.

Background

Government under the right-wing leader Janez Janša responded to the weakening of Slovenian economy during the global economic crisis and European sovereign-debt crisis with opening up old ideological fronts against liberal media, and against public sector - especially educational and cultural sectors, accusing them of being under influence of members of old regime (called Udbomafia and "Uncles from Behind the Scenes" (In Slovene: "strici iz ozadja")[http://www.dnevnik.si/mnenja/stalisca/strici-iz-ozadjaa Uncles from Behind the Scenes] (In Slovene: "Strici iz ozadja"), Dnevnik, 10. November 2012) and against everyone who doubted that austerity measures forced upon Slovenia are right ones.[https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-19908649 IMF calls time on austerity - but can Greece survive?], BBC News, 11 October 2012[https://www.dnevnik.si/slovenija/v-ospredju/samovolja-politikov-presega-vse-meje A Symposium of Law Experts. Political arbitrariness has gone wild.] (In Slovene: "Posvet pravnikov. Samovolja politikov presega vse meje"), Dnevnik, 18 Januar 2013.

In relation to the allegations made by official Commission for the Prevention of Corruption, Janša's party sent letters to the right-wing European Parliament members, discrediting the Commission's report as part of "the communist campaign that begun in 1983 with the aim to remove Janša from politics".[http://www.dnevnik.si/slovenija/v-ospredju/pribac-sdsova-ocena-trenutnega-stanja-v-drzavi-neposredno-zaljiva-za-vecino-slovencev- Pribac: The SDS Letter Is Interpreting the Recent 30 Years of Slovene History as Socialist Conspiracy Against Janša] (In Slovene: "Pribac: Pismo SDS predstavlja zadnjih 30 let slovenske zgodovine kot socialistično zaroto zoper Janšo"), Dnevnik, 17 January 2013 Since Janša was ignoring the report and his party didn't offer any replacement for him, all three coalition parties and their leaders left the government within weeks and were subjected to ad hominem attacks by Janez Janša who accused the SLS's leader Radovan Žerjav of being "the worst (economics) minister in history of Slovenia", while the leader of the Civic List Gregor Virant has been mocked by Janša as engaging in "virantovanje" (a play on words with kurentovanje, a Slovenian carnival festival).[http://www.rtvslo.si/slovenija/jansa-vlado-je-zapustil-najslabsi-minister-za-gospodarstvo-v-zgodovini-slovenije-zerjav-hvala-in-vse-dobro/303143 - Janša to Žerjav: The worst minister for economy in the history of Slovenia has left the government], MMC RTV Slovenija, 25 February 2013[http://www.rtvslo.si/slovenija/predsedniki-strank-so-se-dogovorili-da-se-bodo-potrudili/302392 Section of Virant: Virantovanje resembles kurentovanje], MMC RTV Slovenija, 14 February 2013[http://www.delo.si/novice/politika/desus-zapusca-koalicijo.html Desus has left the government], Delo, 12 January 2013

Reception

=Reception by public intellectuals=

The cause for demonstrations has been attributed by some public intellectuals to misunderstanding of post-socialist political elite who rejected "collectivism as socialist pattern" while, according to notable Slovene anthropologist Vesna V. Godina it is in fact a "pre-socialist pattern", originating from the way the traditional Slovene rural community was functioning much longer than in other – mainly Protestant and to much lesser degree in the mainly Catholic – modern nations, who have replaced traditional political culture earlier in history by the modern representative democracy and individualism.[http://www.7dni.com/v1/default.asp?kaj=2&id=05858505 Interview] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20121214073400/http://www.7dni.com/v1/default.asp?kaj=2&id=05858505|date=14 December 2012}} with Vesna V.
