  • Framing Croatia's Politics of Memory and Identity
    Workshop: War and Identity in the Balkans and the Middle East WORKING PAPER WORKSHOP: War and Identity in the Balkans and the Middle East WORKING PAPER Author: Taylor A. McConnell, School of Social and Political Science, University of Edinburgh Title: “KRVatska”, “Branitelji”, “Žrtve”: (Re-)framing Croatia’s politics of memory and identity Date: 3 April 2018 Workshop: War and Identity in the Balkans and the Middle East WORKING PAPER “KRVatska”, “Branitelji”, “Žrtve”: (Re-)framing Croatia’s politics of memory and identity Taylor McConnell, School of Social and Political Science, University of Edinburgh Web: taylormcconnell.com | Twitter: @TMcConnell_SSPS | E-mail: [email protected] Abstract This paper explores the development of Croatian memory politics and the construction of a new Croatian identity in the aftermath of the 1990s war for independence. Using the public “face” of memory – monuments, museums and commemorations – I contend that Croatia’s narrative of self and self- sacrifice (hence “KRVatska” – a portmanteau of “blood/krv” and “Croatia/Hrvatska”) is divided between praising “defenders”/“branitelji”, selectively remembering its victims/“žrtve”, and silencing the Serb minority. While this divide is partially dependent on geography and the various ways the Croatian War for Independence came to an end in Dalmatia and Slavonia, the “defender” narrative remains preeminent. As well, I discuss the division of Croatian civil society, particularly between veterans’ associations and regional minority bodies, which continues to disrupt amicable relations among the Yugoslav successor states and places Croatia in a generally undesired but unshakable space between “Europe” and the Balkans. 1 Workshop: War and Identity in the Balkans and the Middle East WORKING PAPER Table of Contents Abstract ...................................................................................................................................................................

    The Ethics of a Justice Imposed: Ratko Mladic's Arrest and the... http://www.carnegiecouncil.org/publications/ethics_online/0058... The Ethics of a Justice Imposed: Ratko Mladic's Arrest and the Costs of Conditionality Marlene Spoerri , Mladen Joksic It has been 16 years since the Bosniac population of Srebrenica—a small town in eastern Bosnia—was systematically annihilated in a brutal campaign of genocide and ethnic cleansing. Over the course of several weeks, more than 8,000 people were slaughtered. The victims of Srebrenica were largely, but not exclusively, men. Some had their throats slit. Most were shot with a single gunshot to the head. Of those killed, 500 were young boys under the age of 18—some not CREDIT: Marlene Spoerri old enough to have taken their first step. Among those murdered, several dozen were women and girls. Of the survivors, many were raped and thousands were left without fathers, brothers, and sons. The arrest of Ratko Mladic, the former Bosnian Serb general accused of implementing the genocidal assault on Srebrenica, marks the closing of a difficult chapter in Serbia's history. Driven largely by foreign policymakers who have sought to condition Serbia's Euro-Atlantic integration on the arrest and extradition of suspected war criminals, Mladic's arrest adds to a long list of former presidents, prime ministers, and generals that Serbia has apprehended over the course of the past decade. Unfortunately, if promises of lucrative loans, visa-free travel, and EU membership have succeeded in driving Serbia's compliance with the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia (ICTY), material incentives have had far less success in inciting a process of societal self-reflection.
