'The erased' is a local term for an administrative category of people that includes 18.305 individuals in Slovenia. In 1992 they were 'erased' from the registrar of population with domicile in Slovenia due to legal regularities which required an application for a Slovenian citizenship in timely manner. Later decisions of the Constitutional Court of Slovenia confirmed irregularity of this act. The paper presents a history of the erased and a brief review of the current state in legal sense
