    CENTER FOR Global Studies Project on Global Migration and Transnational Politics ISSN 1941-7586 The Invention of the Croatian Diaspora: Unpacking the Politics of “Diaspora” During the War in Yugoslavia Francesco Ragazzi Ph.D. candidate Institut d’Etudes Politiques (Paris) and Northwestern University (Chicago) Global Migration and Transnational Politics Working Paper no. 10 November 2009 The Center for Global Studies at George Mason University was founded to promote multidisciplinary research on globalization. The Center comprises more than 100 associated faculty members whose collective expertise spans the full range of disciplines. The Center sponsors CGS Working Groups, publishes the Global Studies Review, and conducts research on a broad range of themes. The Project on Global Migration and Transnational Politics, a partnership between CGS and the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation, investigates how political dynamics around the globe have been transformed by new patterns of human mobility and the development of innovative transnational social networks. The project sponsors research workshops, working papers, and conferences that all focus on developing a new research agenda for understanding how global migration has transformed politics. WEB: cgs.gmu.edu ISSN 1941-7586 Francesco Ragazzi The Invention of the Croatian Diaspora: Unpacking the Politics of “Diaspora” During the War in Yugoslavia Francesco Ragazzi Ph.D. candidate, Institut d’Etudes Politiques (Paris) and Northwestern University (Chicago) Abstract: The Croatian “diaspora” is an invention of the 1990’s. Over the course of the 20th- century, Croats living abroad were traditionally divided into three socio-political categories: “old emigrants,” “political émigrés” and “guest workers.” At the turn of the 1990’s, rising ethnic tensions in Yugoslavia pushed these groups towards a short-lived unity when diasporic organizations provided a vast humanitarian, military and lobbying support for the newly founded state of Croatia.

Dwyer, Chairperson ________________________________ Dr. Marc L. Greenberg ________________________________ Dr. Carlos M. Nash Date Defended: April 4, 2012 The Thesis Committee for Holly Hood Glasgow certifies that this is the approved version of the following thesis: CROATIAN LANGUAGE AND CULTURAL MAINTENANCE IN THE SLAVIC-AMERICAN COMMUNITY OF STRAWBERRY HILL, KANSAS CITY, KANSAS ________________________________ Dr. Arienne Dwyer, Chairperson Date approved: April 4, 2012 ii ABSTRACT Holly Hood Glasgow Department of Anthropology University of Kansas 2012 The purpose of this qualitative study was to investigate levels of immigrant language retention among Croatian-Americans in the Slavic diaspora community of Strawberry Hill in Kansas City, Kansas. There have been three major waves of Croatian immigration to Kansas City over the last 100 years, and members of the Strawberry Hill community represent the following generations: child, parent, grandparent and great-grandparent. This thesis examined language shift among two groups of consultants based on the Expanded Graded Intergenerational Disruption Scale (EGIDS, Lewis and Simons 2010). I explore (1) Croatian-American English bilingualism and (2) the maintenance of cultural practices that are associated with the homeland, Croatia, through structured interviews with 20 Croatian-Americans. Results indicated that first-wave immigrants typically possess passive knowledge or symbolic proficiency of Croatian, whereas second- and third-wave immigrants retain high levels of bilingualism.

  • Media Outreach Strategy for Soapbox Soaps
    Media Outreach Strategy for SoapBox Soaps By: Ryan Travitz Advisor: Professor Gemma Puglisi, SOC General University Honors Honors Capstone Supplement COMM-437-001: PR Portfolio Spring 2013 Table of Contents p. 1 Strategic Plan p. 6 SoapBox Feature Story p. 12 Media List p. 15 Generic Pitch Letter p. 16 Individualized Pitch Letters Abstract This Capstone serves as a practical application of public communications skills through the creation of a media placement strategy for the real world client SoapBox Soaps. First, it analyzes the strategic position of SoapBox Soaps and from this analysis extrapolates a target audience and pitch strategy comprised of several storylines. Second, it uses the strategic analysis alongside extensive client interviews to inform a feature piece about the client to be published in relevant media outlets. Third, it uses the target audience to construct a media list of potential media outlets. Finally, it uses the strategic analysis and storylines from the feature story to create pitch letters targeted towards the outlets found in the media list. Through these methods, the Capstone gains media placements and attention for the client company. SoapBox Soaps Strategic Plan Honors Capstone Supplement Strategic Plan Overview This semester for PR Portfolio, I worked as part of a group for the client SoapBox Soaps. SoapBox sells bars of soap, but with a social mission. For every bar purchased at $5.00, the company donates another of the exact same type of bar to people in need, both domestically and abroad. Two American University graduates founded the company three years ago as a labor of love.

  • The Formation of Croatian National Identity
    bellamy [22.5].jkt 21/8/03 4:43 pm Page 1 Europeinchange E K T C The formation of Croatian national identity ✭ This volume assesses the formation of Croatian national identity in the 1990s. It develops a novel framework that calls both primordialist and modernist approaches to nationalism and national identity into question before applying that framework to Croatia. In doing so it not only provides a new way of thinking about how national identity is formed and why it is so important but also closely examines 1990s Croatia in a unique way. An explanation of how Croatian national identity was formed in an abstract way by a historical narrative that traces centuries of yearning for a national state is given. The book goes on to show how the government, opposition parties, dissident intellectuals and diaspora change change groups offered alternative accounts of this narrative in order to The formation legitimise contemporary political programmes based on different visions of national identity. It then looks at how these debates were in manifested in social activities as diverse as football and religion, in of Croatian economics and language. ✭ This volume marks an important contribution to both the way we national identity bellamy study nationalism and national identity and our understanding of post-Yugoslav politics and society.
