    MGZ 75/1 (2016): 94–122 OLDENBOURG Aufsatz Gaj Trifković Carnage in the Land of Three Rivers: The Syrmian Front 1944–1945 DOI 10.1515/mgzs-2016-0004 Abstract: The aim of this article will be to examine the operations of the Yugoslav Partisans and German armed forces in northern parts of Yugoslavia in late 1944 and early 1945. Since the summer of 1941, the communist-led guerrilla movement had conducted a massive guerrilla campaign against Axis forces, at the same time striving to build a regular army and thus gain recognition as a full-time member of the anti-Hitler coalition. The arrival of the Red Army and liberation of country’s eastern parts in September and October 1944 secured material foundations for a creation of a regular field force. Whether this nascent army would be capable of defeating its retreating, but still dangerous German foe remained to be seen. Keywords: Yugoslavia, Syrmia, Serbia, Croatia, Bosnia, Second World War, Parti- sans, Wehrmacht, front, operations, NOVJ The fierce fighting in the flat, open terrain of the province of Syrmia1 counted among the bloodiest of the whole war and left a lasting controversy about whether the Yugoslav Partisans should have pursued an active campaign on the so-called »Syrmian Front« in the first place. In the socialist Yugoslavia prior to the late 1970s, descriptions of operations on the Syrmian Front could usually be found in either general war histories or in unit histories; relevant Partisan docu- ments were published in several volumes of the massive »Zbornik dokumenata i 1 Syrmia (Serbian: Srem; Croatian: Srijem) is the geographical region between the rivers Danube and Sava, stretching from Belgrade in the east to the line north of Vukovar-Bosna estuary in the west.

NO COUNTRY FOR FOREIGNERS: CHRISTIAN PRAXIS IN CROATIAN MIGRATION CRISIS By Branko Sekulić Branko Sekulić is a young theologian from Šibenik, Croatia. He is finishing his education at the Institute of Ecumenical Studies (Ukrainian Catholic University in Lviv), and his PhD at the Protestant faculty, Ludwig-Maximilian University, in Munich. He also cooperates with the Festival of the Alternative and the Left in Šibenik, and with the Center for Peace Studies in Zagreb, Croatia. Daring the Vicious Circles of Death In The Crucified God, a brilliant book written more than forty years ago, Jürgen Moltmann wrote that in times of human crisis, it is not usually possible to speak about only one certain circle of death, but about many of them—that includes vicious circles of poverty, violence, racial and cultural alienation, the industrial pollution of nature, the feeling of senselessness and godforsakenness.1 This brings us to the conclusion that liberation from those rings must also have many faces in order to cope with these wrongdoings properly.
