The hypothesis investigated in this study is that the ethnopolitical conflict that led to the break up of former Yugoslavia was the result of deliberate politicization of ethnicity. -

März 1945, Gründonnerstag, überschreiten alliierte Verbände erstmals die heutige österreichische Grenze im mittleren Burgenland. Es sind Verbände der Roten Armee (3. Ukrainische Front) unter Marschall Fjodor I. Tolbuchin. In ihrem Gepäck: Flugblätter, in denen sie sich zu „Befreiern“ vom NS-Regime erklären und Bezüge zur Moskauer Deklaration von 1943 herstellen. Die militärische Zangenbewegung der Roten Armee geht in Richtung Wien (Schlacht um Wien 6.–13. April 1945). Zu Ostern stehen sowjetische Truppen schon 30 Kilometer vor Graz.

Postwar Austria and the Jewish Refugees. the Role of the Exile Studies in Coming to Terms with the Past
Demokratiezentrum Wien Onlinequelle: www.demokratiezentrum.org source: Unpublished manuscript, Vienna/Lubbock, TX 2004. Sonja Niederacher Postwar Austria and the Jewish Refugees. The Role of the Exile Studies in coming to Terms with the Past In this paper I am going to give an outline of the development of Austrian politics and society. I am focusing on how Austria has dealt with its National Socialist past from the postwar era until today and I am comparing this to the history of Exile Studies. Exile Studies is the discipline that explores the forced emigration of people, mostly Jews, who were persecuted by the Nazis. Unlike Germany where Nazi oppression rose gradually from 1933 onwards, the ‘Anschluss’ Austria’s to the German Reich in March 1938 came all of a sudden over the Jewish community. Approximately 120,000 out of 180,000 people were lucky enough to be able to escape the Nazi persecution in Vienna. The persecution was so brutal that Vienna gathered the status of a Model-city within the German Reich.1 And it affected not only Jews but also political activists, Communists and Social Democrats as well as members and supporters of the Dollfuss and Schuschnigg governments. Some were both, Jewish and political opponents, which put them into even greater danger.2 Most of them fled first to other European countries, to Great Britain, France or the Scandinavia. As the Germans succeeded to occupy big parts of Europe, the refugees had to get overseas, above all to the United States, Latin America, and Palestine. In most countries of Exile, intellectuals, artists and politicians among the refugees built up organizations in order to support their compatriots and also to set a political signal of opposition against Nazi-oppression. -

(Annex to the contract: 3). As opposed to the other project countries, the project proposal assumes that the two are the discontinuity cases whose historical paths didn't seem to point towards consensualism.

Performing Individualism. Two Tendencies Dismantling War Imagery in Croatian and Serbian Historical Novels of the 1960S
SEEU Review Volume 14 Issue 2 DOI: 10.2478/seeur-2019-0016 PERFORMING INDIVIDUALISM. TWO TENDENCIES DISMANTLING WAR IMAGERY IN CROATIAN AND SERBIAN HISTORICAL NOVELS OF THE 1960S (KRSTO ŠPOLJAR, RANKO MARINKOVIĆ AND MATE RAOS, RADOMIR SMILJANIĆ) Maciej Czerwiński Uniwersytet Jagielloński, Instytut Filologii Słowiańskiej UJ ul. Ingardena 3, 30-060 Kraków [email protected] ABSTRACT The article aims at addressing the question of representations of World War Two in Croatian and Serbian literature that were subversive in the sense that they queried the legend not simply by rejecting communism and affirming nationalism, but by emphasizing the uncertainty and sensibility of the human beings, a typical modern reaction to violence and, in general, modernist topoi. In this article I will focus on modernist novelistic representations of the 1960s in which the uncertainty and instability of collective warrants are foregrounded. As a result a subversive meaning is produced which contradicts not only communism and revolution but more generally war as such, including the universal features of war such as confronting loneliness, love as an expression of an individual rather than a collective sense of existence, and the impossibility of a valid representation of past events. Key words: war literature, fiction, Croatian literature, Serbian literature, Yugoslav memory, modern novel 2 SEEU Review Volume 14 Issue 2 INTRODUCTION When speaking about World War Two and its representations in the literatures of Yugoslavia, one gets the immediate impression that the topic of the discussion would be the People’s Liberation Movement, Josip Broz Tito, the partisans, fascists, Germans and Italians, the Ustashas, Chetniks, black-and-white visions, total heroes and total enemies, great battles and the consummate victory of the revolution.
