  • Mark Cornwall LOYALTY and TREASON in LATE HABSBURG
    Mark Cornwall LOYALTY AND TREASON IN LATE HABSBURG CROATIA A Violent Political Discourse before the First World War In her famous work The Meaning of Treason, the novelist and journalist Re- becca West suggests that the concepts of loyalty and treachery are polar op- posites in human society: There is always loyalty, for men love life and cling together under the threats of the uncar- ing universe. So there is always treachery, since there is the instinct to die as well as the in- stinct to live; and as loyalty changes to meet the changing threats of the environment, so treachery changes also.1 This chapter analyses these shifting concepts of loyalty and treason (the polit- icizing of treachery) through a case study from Croatia in the early twentieth century. Late Habsburg Croatia, with its narrow political franchise—less than 2 % of the population—which existed alongside a burgeoning civil society, might rightly be imagined as a territory containing multiple and conflicting loyalties. There was Croatia’s complex ethnic and religious mixture (Croat and Serb, following Catholic, Orthodox and even Jewish faiths) and its sensi- tive geographical location on the Habsburg frontiers, where a military border against the Ottoman Empire had only been abolished in 1881. And not least, there existed historic ties which bound Croatia to both halves of the Habs- burg monarchy despite the dualist system that had existed since 1867. In 1868, Croatia, having been joined to Hungary for over seven hundred years, was uniquely given a degree of home rule, with its own government and par- liament (the Sabor) in Zagreb.

  • Yugoslavia | International Encyclopedia of the First World War
    Version 1.0 | Last updated 18 July 2016 Yugoslavia By Ljubinka Trgovčević The idea for the unification of the Southern Slavs emerged in the 19th century and the strength of its appeal varied over the course of its development. During the First World War, unification became the main war aim of the government of the Kingdom of Serbia as well as the Yugoslav Committee. In different ways, these two groups advocated for Yugoslav unification, resulting in the creation of the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes at the end of the war. Table of Contents 1 Introduction 2 Early ideas about the Unification of Southern Slavs 3 Triune Croatian Kingdom 4 On the Eve of War 5 Unity as a War Aim: 1914-1918 6 Montenegrin and Yugoslav Unity 7 Conclusion Notes Selected Bibliography Citation Introduction The origins of Yugoslavism, or the idea of the cultural and political unification of the Southern Slavs (“jug”, i.e.Y ug means “south”) can be traced back to the 1830s and the emergence of the Illyrian movement. At that time, a group of Croatian intellectuals, in order to resist the Magyarisation and Germanisation carried out by the Habsburg Monarchy, developed a program which aimed, on the one hand, to unify Croats and, on the other hand, to gather Southern Slavs into a single cultural and ethnic entity. During the 19th century, Southern Slavs lived in the large, multinational Habsburg and Ottoman empires as well as in Serbia and Montenegro, which had emerged as small, independent nation-states by 1878. Croats envisioned their unification either within the Habsburg Monarchy as the Triune Croatian Kingdom or within the framework of an independent Southern Slav state; the Slovenes took a similar position.

  • The Serbian Question in Croatian Politics, 1848-1918
    Review of Croatian History 6/2010, no.1, 165 - 188 UDK: 323.15(497.5=163.41)"1848/1918" Izvorni znanstveni članak Received: February 12, 2010 Accepted: March 15, 2010 THE SERBIAN QUESTION IN CROATIAN POLITICS, 1848-1918 Tomislav MARKUS* The author analyzes the significance of the Serbian question and the status of the Serbian ethnic minority in Croatian politics from the revolution of 1848 to the fall of the Habsburg Monarchy in 1918. The most distinguished Croa- tian political theorists and activists during this period – Bogoslav Šulek, Ivan Kukuljević, Josip J. Strossmayer, Franjo Rački, Mihovil Pavlinović, Ante Starčević, Eugen Kvaternik, Frano Supilo, Stjepan and Antun Radić and others – advocated different variants of a Croatocentric ideology within which the South Slav or Slavic framework was sometimes entirely rejected (in Starčević’s case), but more often accepted. Starčević and some of his followers denied the existence of the Serbian minority, believing that all South Slavs, except the Bulgarians, were Cro- ats. However, the vast majority of Croatian politicians and national activists ac- knowledged the existence of the Serbs and the Serbian minority in Croatia. They adhered to the concept of the “Croatian political nation,” which encompassed all citizens of the Triune Kingdom (Croatia, Slavonia and Dalmatia) regardless of ethnic origin. Most Serbian politicians, accepting the identification of speakers of the Shtokavian dialect as Serbs, believed that the Serbs in the Triune Kingdom were a separate nation, which had to be bearer of statehood. Over the long term, they expected that considerable portions of the Triune Kingdom – Slavonia, the Military Frontier and Dalmatia – would become part of an enlarged Serbian state after the collapse of Austria-Hungary.

Završni rad Mentor: izv.prof.dr.sc. Boško Marijan Osijek, 2012. SAŽETAK Glavna su okosnica ovoga rada događaji koji su obilježili političko djelovanje Ivana Meštrovića u razdoblju Kraljevine Jugoslavije. Iako je njegov život obilježila umjetnost, točnije kiparstvo, Meštrović je svoj trag ostavio i u politici. Osim što prikazuje političke događaje između dva svjetska rata i Meštrovićevu ulogu u njima, ovaj rad pobliže oslikava i obiteljski život Meštrovića, te same početke njegova političkog djelovanja, djelatnost u Jugoslavenskom odboru. Kraj Prvog svjetskog rata rezultirao je raspadom Austro-Ugarske, te su prividno stvoreni uvjeti za ujedinjenje svih južnoslavenskih naroda u jednu državu s federalističkim uređenjem, no ulaskom hrvatskih zemalja u Kraljevinu Srba, Hrvata i Slovenaca početni entuzijazam Meštrovića i njegovih suradnika počeo je opadati. Ubrzo zatim Odbor više nije imao razloga postojati, te je u konačnici 1919. godine i raspušten, no to nije označilo kraj Meštrovićeva političkog djelovanja. U radu se nadalje govori o težnjama srpske Radikalne stranke za centralizmom unutar Kraljevine, što se oštro suprotstavljalo Meštrovićevu federalizmu.

The Croatian Case Alberto Becherelli Sapienza University of Rome, Italy Email: [email protected] Abstract The dissolution of the multinational State of Yugoslavia after a half century of Socialistic regime and its violent transformation into several independent States during the 90’s renewed the debate about the origins and the development of the “Yugoslav national question”. The paper describes how the foundation of the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes after the WWI was an unsuccessful attempt to create a modern and unitary Nation-State for the Croats and the other Yugoslav nationalities. Keywords: Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes; Croatian national question; Croatian Peasant Party; centralism; federalism. 1. Introduction At the end of the First World War the victorious powers of the Entente imposed a new European balance and redrew the political chart of the continent, failing those hopes and illusions that rose among the masses during the long and hard years of conflict. The several misinterpretations of Peace Treaties and the discontent of different national aspirations paved the way for a period of instability and unrest in Europe; the “Nation-States”, risen from the ruins of the multinational Empires,

Prilog proučavanju djelovanja Ivana Meštrovića u Jugoslavenskom odboru NORKA MACHIEDO MLADINIĆ Zagreb, Republika Hrvatska Poznavajući opće teško stanje u Dalmaciji, Ivan Meštrović je smatrao, kao i mnogi njegovi vršnjaci u to doba, da je jedino rješenje oslobođenje od Austro- Ugarske i osnivanje samostalne, demokratske države južnih Slavena. Za vrije- me Prvoga svjetskog rata Meštrović je djelovao na osnivanju Jugoslavenskog odbora i svojim poznanstvima i izložbama podupirao njegov rad. Ključne riječi: Ivan Meštrović, Jugoslavenski odbor, Prvi svjetski rat. Pred Prvi svjetski rat Ivan Meštrović bio je ovjenčan prvom nagradom na Međunarodnoj izložbi u Rimu. Bio je poznat u europskim metropolama: Beču, Parizu, Rimu, Londonu. Nekolicina Bečana podržala ga je u prvim dani- ma njegova umjetničkog uspona, a ubrzo pod kraj studija bio je prihvaćen na izložbama Secesije; Beč je grad njegova umjetničkog zaleta. Živio je i radio u Parizu i Rimu gdje je upoznao mnoge poznate osobe. U Beogradu je vjerojatno bio 1904. u povodu održavanja Prve jugoslaven- ske izložbe, zatim 1906. i 1907. godine. Portretirajući kralja Petra, susretao se s Đorđem i Aleksandrom Karađorđevićem i nekim srpskim političarima. Iako je postao stanovnik svijeta, Meštrović je uvijek bio i ostao Hrvat iz Dalmacije želeći za Hrvatsku bolji život u slobodi i suradnji s ostalim južnim Slavenima. Veća prava priželjkivali su Česi i Slovaci vođeni Tomašom Masarykom, te Poljaci u sklopu Austro-Ugarske Monarhije. Uzor samostalne države bila im je Kraljevina Srbija koja se oslobodila Turaka vlastitim snagama i koja je poti- cala oslobođenje ostalih južnih Slavena.

  • Thanks for the Invitation. I Am a Phd at Vienna University. for This Paper I
    Thanks for the invitation. I am a PhD at Vienna University. For this paper I have been using sources from the public records office, the Seton-Watson archive and various newspapers from the Adriatic, the Atlantic and the Alps. I shall be giving a paper based on a chapter that I finished writing this year for the book ´The history of the First World War in the Balkans´ published by the Südosteuropa Gesellschaft, Münich. A hundred years ago, near Rijeka, a minor Hungarian port town where the Croats spoke Italian, a young Vladimir Nazor looked jealously upon the contested Adriatic whilst writing. His fable, Medvjed Brundo speaks of bitter struggles between the forest animals and their enemies, the plundering Venetian loggers. The South Slavs are allegorically represented by wild animals trapped in a two way battle between themselves and against the Venetians. The fable alludes to the region’s linguistic and political struggles between the Italians and the South Slavs, which had crystallised in the 19th century during the South Slav rebirth and the Italian Risorgimento on the Eastern Adriatic. This was not an exception. Earlier in the 19th century, the Slovene poet Simon Jenko´s melancholy verses display the longing nostalgia of a lost sea: Buči, buči, morje adrijansko! Nekdaj bilo si slovansko, morje adrijansko! Jenko´s verses show that in the 19th century, the Adriatic has already become a contested entity, becoming more of a barrier rather than a bridge. Lying on the crossroads of the Balkan Peninsula, Central Europe and the Mediterranean, the Eastern Adriatic became the object of the Entente’s purchase of Italy’s services in the First World War.
