(Title in Slovak - 'Informovanost cesko-slovenskej diplomacie o kontaktoch slovenskych autonomistickych politikov s nacistami v obdobi pomnichovskej republiky'). The study is concerned with the problem of Czechoslovak diplomacy information about Slovak - German relations in the period of so-called Second Republic. The authoress analyses its sources of information, which included the official statements of the German Foreign Office (Auswärtiges Amt), reports from the Czechoslovak Embassy in Berlin, reports of the Czechoslovak intelligence service to the Foreign Ministry in Prague and the domestic and foreign press. She comes to the conclusion that Czechoslovak diplomacy underestimated the role of Slovak separatism in Nazi policy and had only very superficial knowledge of the contacts of Slovak political figures with the Nazis.
