First of all, I would like to thank John Fine and Todd Endelman, because of whom I came to Michigan in the first place. I thank them for their guidance and friendship.

  • Croatia (As of 13 December 2016)
    OVERVIEW OF IMMOVABLE PROPERTY RESTITUTION/COMPENSATION REGIMES – CROATIA (AS OF 13 DECEMBER 2016) CONTENTS A. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY B. POST-WAR ARMISTICES, TREATIES AND AGREEMENTS DEALING WITH RESTITUTION OF IMMOVABLE PROPERTY C. PRIVATE PROPERTY RESTITUTION D. COMMUNAL PROPERTY RESTITUTION E. HEIRLESS PROPERTY RESTITUTION F. BIBLIOGRAPHY A. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Yugoslavia (which included present day Croatia, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Kosovo, Macedonia, Montenegro, Serbia, Slovenia) was invaded by the Axis powers in 1941. With the support and assistance of Germany and Italy, the Ustaše regime established the so-called Independent State of Croatia, a Nazi puppet state comprised of present-day Croatia, Bosnia-Herzegovina and parts of Serbia. After the war, Croatia became one of the constituent republics of socialist Yugoslavia. Before World War II, between 23,000 and 26,000 Jews lived in the territory of present- day Croatia. Roughly 5,250 survived the war. Of the 15,000 Roma living in Croatia in 1931, only 405 were recorded in the post-war 1948 census. There are many estimates of Roma casualties from 10,000 to 20,000 making it impossible to determine the exact number. An estimated 2,000-2,500 Jews and at least approximately 17,000 Roma (possibly double that figure) live in Croatia today. Immediately after the war, in May 1945, Yugoslavia enacted Law No. 36/45 (on Handling Property Abandoned by its Owner during the Occupation and Property Seized by the Occupier and his Collaborators). The expansive restitution and compensation law addressed property confiscated during World War II where the owners had to leave the country and were deprived of their property against their will, or where property was transferred under the pressure of the occupier to third persons.

  • The Dissonant Heritage of the Blessed Alojzije Stepinac: the Case of the Silencing of a Religious Tourist Route
    Belaj The Dissonant Heritage of the Blessed Alojzije Stepinac: The Case of the Silencing of a Religious Tourist Route Marijana Belaj University of Zagreb Croatia Abstract A religious tourist route, the Stepinac Path (Croatia), is a project designed to connect four mnemonic sites related to selected parts of the Blessed Alojzije Stepinac’s biography. The proj- ect follows the European model of the Camino de Santiago. The Stepinac Path includes the reconstruction of several old pilgrimage paths leading to the national pilgrimage shrine of Our Lady in Marija Bistrica. It was also conceived to be incorporated into a wider network of Croatian and international Marian pilgrimage paths. The project was created and is managed by various tourism institutions, with the aim of heritagizing the figure of Alojzije Stepinac by highlighting several aspects of his life. However, the phrase “the heritage of the Blessed Alojzije Stepinac” is mostly promoted by the Catholic Church in Croatia, emphasizing the religious aspect of his legacy. The complex power relations between religious and heritage politics have pushed the Stepinac Path project’s implementation into a silent phase. Without the proper sup- port of the Catholic Church in Croatia, the project has little public recognition and momentum has slowed. This paper examines the Stepinac Path’s silencing in terms of dissonant heritage policies and heritagization processes in political, religious, and economic discourses and power relations. Keywords: dissonant heritage; heritagization; the Blessed Alojzije Stepinac; the Stepinac Path Introduction religious tourist route, the Stepinac Path, is a project in northwest Croatia de- signed to revive old pilgrimage routes and to connect places that preserve the Blessed Alojzije Stepinac’s memory.

  • March 22, 2020 M5.5 Zagreb, Croatia Earthquake
    March 22, 2020 M5.5 Zagreb, Croatia Earthquake By Marta Šavor Novak and Nenad Bijelić In the morning of March 22, 2020 (local time: 6:24 am), the slumbering city of Zagreb was woken up by a M5.5 earthquake. In a nation’s capital lulled into a false sense of security due to the last major temblor happening about 140 years ago, this event caused major damage to infrastructure as well as a widespread psychological shock which were further exacerbated by the subsequent aftershocks (including an M5.0 event at 7:01am) amidst the COVID-19 lockdown. The event tragically caused one direct fatality as well as one indirect fatality. The number of fatalities would have been much greater if the strict measures against the COVID-19 had not been imposed on the citizens the day before the earthquake. The epicenter of the main shock is located about 9km north of the Zagreb city center (45.85°N, 16.03°E) in the Medvednica fault zone. The event presumably originated on a reverse fault although it is currently unclear if the event occurred on a known active fault or whether a new fault was activated. More information about the event including a tectonic summary is available from USGS [1] as well as from University of Zagreb, Department of Geophysics [2; link in Croatian]. Visualization of the area affected by the main shock and aftershocks is available in [3]. The bulk of the damage to infrastructure is located in the densely-populated city center as well as on the outskirts in the vicinity of the epicenter.
