Abstract: A part of economic program of the governmental totalitarian regime in Slovakia after October 1938 was gaining control of Jewish community possessions, i.e. so called aryanization. The original moderate conceptions of aryanization from era of Slovak autonomy 1938/39 were extended and deepened. A turning point came after the inception of Slovak Republic during the war in March 1939 when systematic attacks started and included all kinds of Jewish possessions on the basis of contemporary anti-Jewish legislation. Aryanization of a gradual so called evolutionary way according to the plans of moderate governmental garniture wing changed in mid 1940 under pressure of radical forces into so called revolutionary aryanization according to the model of Nazi Germany. The radical way of aryanization meant total dispossession and nationalization of all kinds of Jewish possessions. The task of the main arizator was performed by state which in different forms drew millions from the nationalized Jewish wealth until 1945.
