  • Sokol Flags—The Symbols of Croatian Sokol Movement to 1914
    Sokol Flags – The Symbols of Croatian Sokol Movement to 1914: The Sokol Movement as a Component of National and European Integration at the Beginning of the 20th Century Jelena Borošak Marijanović Abstract In the European context, Sokol Movement events, and in particular Sokol “slets” (simultaneous group exercising accompanied by music), appear as important characteristics of the social life of Slavic people living on the territory of Habsburg Monarchy at the end of the 19th century and in the first decade of the 20th century. The movement promoted ideals of belonging to Slavia, as well as fostering a sense of belonging to particular nationalities (Croatian, Czech, Polish, Slovenian, etc.) that were specifically expressed during “slet” events. The author presents original (Croatian) Sokol Movement flags and documentary photographs and describes the particular atmosphere that reigned during “slets”. Postcard: The second Croatian Pan-Sokol “slet” in Zagreb 1911, representing a gymnast – “sokolaš”, the Croatian national tricolour, and a falcon. Proceedings of the 24th International Congress of Vexillology, Washington, D.C., USA 1–5 August 2011 © 2011 North American Vexillological Association (www.nava.org) 55 THE CROATIAN SOKOL MOVEMENT (SOKOLSTVO) The term sokolstvo refers to a physical training movement that emerged in 1862 in Europe, more precisely in almost all Slavic countries. This movement attained growing popularity as a form of recreation characterized by political undertones and national aspirations. The movement draws its name from the Slavic word for falcon – sokol – a bird that is, according to popular tradition, the embodiment of courage, boldness, agility, and desire for freedom. The champions of the movement were members of liberally oriented petty bourgeois who started to found special gymnastics associations or societies.

  • Young Bosnia: Teenage Revolutionaries and the Sarajevo Assassination of 1914
    1 Background Reading #1: Young Bosnia: Teenage Revolutionaries and the Sarajevo Assassination of 1914 If a reporter in early 1914 had posed the question “What is the most dangerous ‘hot spot’ in the world today?”, any well informed European in early 1914 would have said “the Balkan peninsula,” and most would have specifically said “Bosnia.” In fact, Bosnia was seething with revolutionary discontent. At the center of it all was a group of revolutionary teenagers called Young Bosnia, a movement that had spread throughout the high schools of the region. What was Young Bosnia? What were the goals of the movement? And why were many people in Bosnia so dissatisfied with the current state of affairs that they were willing to sacrifice their lives and even the stability of Europe to bring about change? In 1914 Bosnia was part of the Austro-Hungarian (or Habsburg) Empire, but it hadn’t been part of the empire for very long. Indeed, the parents of those revolutionary students of Young Bosnia had been born under a different empire, the Ottoman Empire, which had ruled Bosnia for centuries. Unlike in other areas of the Balkans, in Bosnia a large percentage of the local nobility had converted to Islam after the Ottoman take-over and so had maintained their power. In other words, in Bosnia it was local Muslims who ruled, people who spoke the same language as the rest of the people, not Turkish-speaking “foreigners.” Because religion had been the important identifying marker under Ottoman rule, in the new age of nationalism (which arose in the 19th century), religion became the method of determining one’s national identity in Bosnia.

Croatian Immigrants in the Keweenaw Abstract In the years between 1890 and 1920, there was an influx of immigration to Michigan’s Upper Peninsula. Due to the copper mines, towns and villages, such as Red Jacket (now known as Calumet) flourished. Surrounding the mines were smaller villages, such as Ahmeek, located five miles northwest of Calumet. Among those that came for a new and “better” life were the Croatians. Most of the Croatians who made their way over were from the same area in Croatia, Ravna Gora. This immigration pattern is an example of chain-migration, people helping those from their country, from the area of the country that they are from, come over to the States. This also shows a trend in men who were hired into the mines and how they were hired. For instance, the employment application for Calumet and Hecla asked not only where the immigrant was from, but who they knew working in the copper mines.

  • Croatian-Slovenian Relations in Politics, 1848-1914: Examples of Mutual Ties
    Review of Croatian History 6/2010, no.1, 115 - 132 UDK: 327(497.5:497.4)''1848/1914'' Izvorni znanstveni članak Received: September 17, 2010 Accepted: October 27, 2010 CROATIAN-SLOVENIAN RELATIONS IN POLITICS, 1848-1914: EXAMPLES OF MUTUAL TIES Stjepan MATKOVIĆ* The events of 1848 showed that the Croats and Slovenes had individual national identities and fully-formed views on the integration of their own ethnic territories. At the same time, both peoples, each in their own way, aspired to come closer in order to protect themselves from the looming hegemonic forces within the ethnically diverse Habsburg Monarchy and outside of it. Although the Slovenian political movement, with its platform of Unified Slovenia, did not stand out in 1848 in the eyes of Croatian politicians, already then it showed that there were circumstances that pointed to the idea of reciprocity. Despite the emphasis placed on specific forms of national identity, events which demonstrated that Croats and Slovenes were too weak to secure individual independence stressed the need for ties. So the author attempted to present an account of Croatian- Slovenian relations from 1848 to 1914. He took into consideration relations between groups and individuals who could be considered as a kind of national leaders, as well as relations between other groups and individuals in Croatian and Slovenian territories during the same period of time (e. g., Croatian-Slovenian relations in Istria). In European history, the year 1848 is designated as a watershed in the formation of modern national communities and civil society. Revolutionary trends opened the floodgates for national movements in many countries in the Old Continent.

  • The Recognition of Islam in the Hungarian Law of 1916 (Xvii): Documents from the Vatican Archives 1
    HStud 33(2019)2, 337–366 DOI: 10.1556/044.2019.33.2.9 THE RECOGNITION OF ISLAM IN THE HUNGARIAN LAW OF 1916 (XVII): DOCUMENTS FROM THE VATICAN ARCHIVES 1 ORSOLYA VARSÁNYI Pázmány Péter Catholic University [email protected] This article aims to reconstruct the reception of Act XVII adopted by the Hungarian Parliament in 1916, which brought about the legal recognition of Islam, from the stance of the Holy See of Rome. The research is based on archival material pre- served at the Vatican Archives, namely letters exchanged between the Nunziature of Vienna and the Holy See, which are published and translated here. The presenta- tion of so far unpublished material provides an opportunity to follow the growing understanding of the contents and background of this law; the key points of interest of the Catholic Church in this matter are identifi ed; while lexical references seek to shed light on the perceptions of Islam. Keywords: Hungarian Islam Law 1916, Catholic Church, Perceptions of Islam, Religious Pluralism Introduction In 2016, intense scholarly activity commemorated the offi cial legal recognition of Islam in Hungary, on the centenary of the so-called 1916 Islam law. Con- ferences were organized2 on the history and the signifi cance of the law from a variety of approaches; and a great proportion of the proceedings was published. Some studies elaborated on the perception of and attitudes to Islam, especially general trends, in the beginning of the 20th century in Hungary, but, to the best of my knowledge, the reactions of the Catholic Church to the emergence of the proposition and the actual proclamation have not been presented in detail so far.

  • Top Incomes in Croatia and Slovenia, from 1960S Until Today
    WID.world WORKING PAPER SERIES N° 2018/8 Top incomes in Croatia and Slovenia, from 1960s until today Nataša Kump Filip Novokmet April 2018 Top incomes in Croatia and Slovenia, from 1960s until today * Nataša Kump Institute for Economic Research (IER), Ljubljana Filip Novokmet Paris School of Economics (PSE) Abstract The income tax data are used to show that the transition to the market economy has led to a moderate increase in income inequality in Croatia and Slovenia. Inequality increased in the 1990s and stabilized afterwards, with the increase in inequality being mainly driven by the rising shares of top income groups. This development is explained by the ‘gradualist’ transition course. In both Slovenia and Croatia, the slow privatization and the large public sector have contributed to the emergence of labour market institutions that procured low inequality social equilibrium. Further, the substantial importance of the state ownership of the corporate sector in Slovenia and the foreign and state ownership in Croatia has made the concentration of private capital income less pronounced at the top of the income distribution. Finally, new inequality series for Croatia and Slovenia are a valuable contribution in assessing the role and showing the importance of policies and institutions in shaping inequality. * This work is based on the chapter entitled “After self-management: top income shares in Croatia and Slovenia, from the 1960s until today” by F. Novokmet (Novokmet 2017). Nataša Kump: [email protected] ; Filip Novokmet: [email protected] We are especially grateful to Tine Stanovnik and Leonard Kukic for helpful suggestions. Special acknowledgments go to Mirna Valinger, Gordana Marić and Zlatana Kvesić from the Croatian Tax Administration for the preparation of the Croatian income tax data used in this paper.

Politically, the most important area was the medieval Kingdom of Dalmatia–Croatia, which stretched from the mountain chains of the Dinaric Alps to the Adriatic Sea. This was an independent kingdom in the early Middle Ages, but was united with Hungary around the beginning of the twelfth century. It retained nonetheless a certain measure of autonomy which was demonstrated in its institutional organization (a governor or ban, a separate diet, counties, and so on) in which the aristocracy and nobility played the leading role. In respect of its social organization, the kingdom had two very different parts: the coastal cities with their communal organization and autonomy; and the hinterland which was divided into counties governed by royal officials or hereditary counts. The coastal part of the kingdom alternated between the rule of the kings of Hungary–Croatia and the rule of Venice, with Venice taking over the region at the beginning of the fifteenth century (with the exception of Dubrovnik).

  • Croatia: a Curriculum Guide for Secondary School Teachers
    Croatia: A Curriculum Guide for Secondary School Teachers Created by the Center for Russian and East European Studies University Center for International Studies University of Pittsburgh April 2006 Cover Photo: Jeanette A. Hahn, Dubrovnik, 2004 Curriculum Guide Contributors: Jeanette A. Hahn, School of Law, University of Pittsburgh (primary researcher and author) Gina Peirce, Center for Russian and East European Studies, University of Pittsburgh (editor) ii Introduction Croatia: A Curriculum Guide for Secondary School Teachers was created to provide information on the historical and contemporary development of the Croatian nation, and in so doing, to assist teachers in meeting some of the criteria indicated in the Pennsylvania Department of Education‘s Academic Standard Guidelines (http://www.portal.state.pa.us/portal/server.pt/community/state_board_of_education/8830 /state_academic_standards/529102). To fulfill the fundamental themes for many of the disciplines prescribed by the state guidelines, this curriculum guide provides the following information: A description of the unique traits of Croatian culture. A description of the effects of political, economic and cultural changes and how these changes shaped the present Croatia. Identification and explanation of the contributions of key historical individuals and groups in politics, science, the arts, and religion in Croatia. Examination of the changing economic and political system of Croatia, and how these changes have affected Croatian society. These and other areas of Croatian society and culture are explored in an attempt to assist the secondary school teacher in fulfilling the Academic Standard Guidelines. As the unique transitions in Croatia provide a laboratory for studying political, economic and cultural change, this guide may be additionally useful as a means for comparison with our own country‘s development.
