The journal has three parts. The first comprises a section for real life stories and articles which are in line with the general orientation of the journal. The criteria for contributions are an academic approach supported by a rich critical apparatus in a narrative style which is neither dull nor plain. The second part is comprised of discussions concerning the theory of history as well as various polemics, while the third offers reviews of books dealing with issues and topics related to the journal's content.
Undoubtedly the most distinctive characteristic of Zgodovina za vse is the revival of narrative. The articles are discernible by their detailed narratives or description (ie thick descriptions). This is so-called 'modern narrative' which contemporary historians, influenced by the findings and results of anthropology, contrast with more traditional narrative characterised as 'thin description'. Thorough and detailed case studies of various phenomena from the Slovene past form complex articles which, according to the methodology and technique they deploy, can be characterised as microhistory or micronarrative - the history of every-day life, the history of mentality, as well as the history of civilisation, habits and customs.
With respect to the above-mentioned paradigmatic orientation, the journal is on a par with similar historical periodicals in Europe. The articles are complemented by fairly long German summaries and shorter Slovene and English abstracts.
The journal Zgodovina za vse was not only welcomed by professional historians, students of history and other humanities, but also received a favourable reception by the general public.
The journal is published biannually in 297mm x 210mm format and runs from 100 to 120 pages. Contributions from authors and readers who are interested in themes and concepts common to those of the journal and feel a need to write or read this kind of history are most welcome.
