The Center comprises more than 100 associated faculty members whose collective expertise spans the full range of disciplines. The Center sponsors CGS Working Groups, publishes the Global Studies Review, and conducts research on a broad range of themes. The Project on Global Migration and Transnational Politics, a partnership between CGS and the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation, investigates how political dynamics around the globe have been transformed by new patterns of human mobility and the development of innovative transnational social networks. The project sponsors research workshops, working papers, and conferences that all focus on developing a new research agenda for understanding how global migration has transformed politics.

Over the course of the 20th- century, Croats living abroad were traditionally divided into three socio-political categories: “old emigrants,” “political émigrés” and “guest workers.” At the turn of the 1990’s, rising ethnic tensions in Yugoslavia pushed these groups towards a short-lived unity when diasporic organizations provided a vast humanitarian, military and lobbying support for the newly founded state of Croatia.

Dwyer, Chairperson ________________________________ Dr. Marc L. Greenberg ________________________________ Dr. Carlos M. Nash Date Defended: April 4, 2012 The Thesis Committee for Holly Hood Glasgow certifies that this is the approved version of the following thesis: CROATIAN LANGUAGE AND CULTURAL MAINTENANCE IN THE SLAVIC-AMERICAN COMMUNITY OF STRAWBERRY HILL, KANSAS CITY, KANSAS ________________________________ Dr. Arienne Dwyer, Chairperson Date approved: April 4, 2012 ii ABSTRACT Holly Hood Glasgow Department of Anthropology University of Kansas 2012 The purpose of this qualitative study was to investigate levels of immigrant language retention among Croatian-Americans in the Slavic diaspora community of Strawberry Hill in Kansas City, Kansas. There have been three major waves of Croatian immigration to Kansas City over the last 100 years, and members of the Strawberry Hill community represent the following generations: child, parent, grandparent and great-grandparent. This thesis examined language shift among two groups of consultants based on the Expanded Graded Intergenerational Disruption Scale (EGIDS, Lewis and Simons 2010). I explore (1) Croatian-American English bilingualism and (2) the maintenance of cultural practices that are associated with the homeland, Croatia, through structured interviews with 20 Croatian-Americans. Results indicated that first-wave immigrants typically possess passive knowledge or symbolic proficiency of Croatian, whereas second- and third-wave immigrants retain high levels of bilingualism.

  • The Formation of Croatian National Identity
    bellamy [22.5].jkt 21/8/03 4:43 pm Page 1 Europeinchange E K T C The formation of Croatian national identity ✭ This volume assesses the formation of Croatian national identity in the 1990s. It develops a novel framework that calls both primordialist and modernist approaches to nationalism and national identity into question before applying that framework to Croatia. In doing so it not only provides a new way of thinking about how national identity is formed and why it is so important but also closely examines 1990s Croatia in a unique way. An explanation of how Croatian national identity was formed in an abstract way by a historical narrative that traces centuries of yearning for a national state is given. The book goes on to show how the government, opposition parties, dissident intellectuals and diaspora change change groups offered alternative accounts of this narrative in order to The formation legitimise contemporary political programmes based on different visions of national identity.

  • Ethnic Fraternal Benefit Associations: Their Historical Development, Character, and Significance.”
    Ethnic Fraternal Societies An American Tradition with Old World Roots Background Reading “Ethnic Fraternal Benefit Associations: Their Historical Development, Character, and Significance.” John Bodnar From: RECORDS OF ETHNIC FRATERNAL BENEFIT ASSOCIATIONS IN THE UNITED STATES: ESSAYS AND INVENTORIES, ed. Susan H. Shreve and Rudolph J. Vecoli. St. Paul: Immigration History Research Center, University of Minnesota, 1981, 5–14. *Numbers in brackets at right margin indicate original page numbers. When one searches systematically for literature on fraternal benefit associations, one [5] quickly learns that there is indeed not much of a scholarly tradition or scholarly body of literature available. There are fragments—discussions of the function of fraternals as parts of other histories, but studies singling out and focusing on fraternal benefit societies, as we will be doing this morning, are rare. A number of scholars have attempted to link the origins of American fraternal societies with European traditions of mutual associations. A recent study of Croatians in Whiting, Indiana, attributed the beginnings of the first Croatian benefit lodge with the cooperative tradition of the Croatian "zadruga," or extended communal family. Even for those outside the confines of the "zadruga" in Croatia, practices such as the "molba" existed whereby 30 or 40 friends were brought together to assist a farmer in harvesting his fields in return for food or drink. In the coastal areas of Dalmatia, ancestral home to thousands of Yugoslavs, fraternal brotherhoods assisted families in times of illness or bereavement. In a similar fashion, Slovak scholars have sought to establish a link between the medieval guilds of skilled artisans in Bohemia and Slovakia and immigrant fraternals in America.

  • Croatian Fraternal Union/Hrvatska Bratska Zajednica Topic Guide for Chronicling America (
    Croatian Fraternal Union/Hrvatska Bratska Zajednica Topic Guide for Chronicling America (http://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov) Introduction Founded in Pennsylvania in 1894, the Croatian Fraternal Union (CFU) is now the oldest and largest Croatian organization in North America. The Croatian Federation was first established in 1894 after the merging of six Croatian societies, changing its name to the National Croatian Society in 1897 and to the Croatian Fraternal Union in 1926. Ohio has been home to numerous local chapters of the organization, particularly in cities with large Croatian populations like Cleveland and Youngstown. Over the years, the CFU started a newspaper, orphanage, tamburitza (musical instrument) group, and junior division. The CFU pledged its loyalty to the United States during the World Wars, but continued to support Croatia’s independence at the same time—a street in Croatia’s capital is named for the CFU.

  • The Croatian Diaspora in North America: Identity, Ethnic Solidarity and the Formation of a “Transnational National Community”
    The Croatian Diaspora in North America: Identity, Ethnic Solidarity and the Formation of a “Transnational National Community” IVANA DURIC INTRODUCTION is article presents the results of an empirical study examining the impact of democratization, ethnic tensions and the conflict situation in Croatia on the self-perception, ethnic homogenization, and the process by which a “transna- tional national community” developed among the Croatian diaspora in North America. e main methodology used in this research is a discourse analysis of articles published in the Fraternalist during the period -. e Fra- ternalist is the official journal of the Croatian Fraternal Union (CFU), the most influential Croatian diasporic organization in North America. For the purpose of this study, only articles describing the activities and attitudes of members of the Croatian diaspora toward their homeland were taken into consideration. Loring M. Danforth defines a diaspora as a social entity that “...consists of people who left their homeland either voluntarily or by force, and who have an awareness of constituting a minority immigrant community in the host country in which they have settled.” According to Robin Cohen, the main feature that distinguishes diasporic from other kinds of immigrant communities is a strong emphasis on group identity and a refusal to totally assimilate into the host soci- ety. Members of the group are stretched between two countries and two loyal- ties. is is particularly the case with first generation immigrants for whom the native country is the main point of their collective thoughts and efforts. More- over, diasporic communities tend to feel an obligation to influence the home society by all possible means.
