Još jedanput o knjizi Holokaust u Zagrebu JURE KRIŠTO, Hrvatski institut za povijest, Zagreb, Republika Hrvatska Pred kraj 2001. godine u Zagrebu se pojavila knjiga neočekivanoga naslova Holokaust u Zagrebu s neobičnom naznakom autora (Goldstein, bez vlastita imena) u nakladi Novoga Libera, vlasništvo obitelji Gold­ stein, te Zidovske općine Zagreb. Naslovnica u knjizi naznačuje da je au­ tor Ivo Goldstein, a suautor Slavko Goldstein, dakle, sin i otac. Na IV. str. nalazimo napomenu "autora i suautora" što je tko napravio, iz čega ipak nije jasno komu treba što pripisati. Pred dvojbom kome pripisati autorstvo, ne preostaje drugo nego o knjizi govorti kao o knjizi Goldstei­ novih. Knjiga, razdijeljena u 43 poglavlja, ima 726 stranica s mnogo faksimi­ la dokumenata i slika. Popraćena je popisom slikovnih priloga, kratica­ ma, popisom korištenih arhiva, izvora i literature te kazalima osobnih imena i zemljopisnih pojmova i imena. Na kraju se nalazi popis ulica u Zagrebu 1942. godine i bilješka o autorima. Autorima se ne može zanijekati veliki trud u pripremanju knjige. No nejasnoća oko autorstva vjerojatno je razlog brojnih kontradikcija i ne­ dosljednosti u knjizi na koje će biti upozoreno u ovom osvrtu i na koje su autori već upozoreni. Tako je u zagrebačkome Jutarnjem listu čitatelj dr. Danijel Đurek upozorio da je čovjek koji je u knjizi proglašen žrtvom ".ustaškoga terora" umro prirodnom smrću u Zagrebu 1975.

Prihvaćeno: 05.01.2014. This paper examines the memory practices of the memorial complex at Mrakovica at the Kozara National Park in the Republika Srpska, Bosnia and Herzegovina. The original concept of the memorial site, founded in 1972, was to keep the Kozara-epos alive. The erected monument, the memorial wall and the museum were built to remember one of the biggest battles during the Second World War on Yugoslav soil during which more than ten thousand Partisan fighters and civilians lost their lives. During the communist era the memorial site fit into the official memory frame: the high number of casualties, especially civilians, was put into the foreground and the Partisans in their struggle for liberation were glorified. The key component of the official narrative was the slogan brotherhood and unity. After the armed conflict in the 1990s, the site underwent several transformations. New memorial frames were set by nationalists; thus history and memory were thereby de- and reconstructed. The new narrative included not only victims of the Second World War but exclusively those victims belonging to the ethnic group of Serbs of the First World War and the conflict in 1992-95.

  • The Case of Croatian Wikipedia: Encyclopaedia of Knowledge Or Encyclopaedia for the Nation?
    The Case of Croatian Wikipedia: Encyclopaedia of Knowledge or Encyclopaedia for the Nation? 1 Authorial statement: This report represents the evaluation of the Croatian disinformation case by an external expert on the subject matter, who after conducting a thorough analysis of the Croatian community setting, provides three recommendations to address the ongoing challenges. The views and opinions expressed in this report are those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of the Wikimedia Foundation. The Wikimedia Foundation is publishing the report for transparency. Executive Summary Croatian Wikipedia (Hr.WP) has been struggling with content and conduct-related challenges, causing repeated concerns in the global volunteer community for more than a decade. With support of the Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees, the Foundation retained an external expert to evaluate the challenges faced by the project. The evaluation, conducted between February and May 2021, sought to assess whether there have been organized attempts to introduce disinformation into Croatian Wikipedia and whether the project has been captured by ideologically driven users who are structurally misaligned with Wikipedia’s five pillars guiding the traditional editorial project setup of the Wikipedia projects. Croatian Wikipedia represents the Croatian standard variant of the Serbo-Croatian language. Unlike other pluricentric Wikipedia language projects, such as English, French, German, and Spanish, Serbo-Croatian Wikipedia’s community was split up into Croatian, Bosnian, Serbian, and the original Serbo-Croatian wikis starting in 2003. The report concludes that this structure enabled local language communities to sort by points of view on each project, often falling along political party lines in the respective regions.

Transcultural and Trans-Lingual Strategies in Cultural Production COLLOQUIA HUMANISTICA Institute of Croatian Language and Linguistics Amir KapetanovićZagreb [email protected] Kaya: from Novella to Film Abstract Te paper analyses the transformation of Kruno Quien’s novella Kaya into a screenplay adaptation and a flm of the same title by eminent Croatian director Vatroslav Mimica. Te analysis points out signifcant characteristics of both the transformation of the text and the transformation of the portrayed Mediterranean urban area (a crime in Trogir), as well as the linguistic stylization of the characters’ Trogir dialect, which contributes to the atmosphere of the flm. Discussions surrounding the flm have so far only unfolded on the basis of a comparison between Quien’s novella and Mimica’s flm. Tis analysis thus contributes important information about the structural and narrative characteristics of the unpublished screenplay, shedding more light on the paths towards leading to the creation of this Croatian flm, which is considered Mimica’s best work and one of the best Croatian flms.

  • Serbia and the Serbian Rebellion in Croatia (1990-1991)
    Serbia and the Serbian Rebellion in Croatia (1990-1991) By Harry Jack Hayball Thesis submitted to Goldsmiths College, University of London, for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy April 2015 Supervised by Professor Jan Plamper 2 Declaration All the work presented in this thesis is my own. Harry Jack Hayball Declaration 3 Abstract It is often suggested that the Serbian rebellion in Croatia in 1990-91 was orchestrated by Serbia, and, in particular, by its president Slobodan Milošević personally. Despite the popularity of this interpretation, however, the literature on the break-up of Yugoslavia is yet to offer a focused study of Serbia's role in the descent into conflict in Croatia. Many sources that have become available in recent years remain unused. Through a critical and cautious use of such sources, including extensive interviews with participants in the conflict and contemporary documentation, this thesis aims to fill this gap in the literature and to update our knowledge of this important aspect of the bloody disintegration of Yugoslavia. Honing in on Belgrade's relationships with Serb political and military/paramilitary leaders in Croatia, as well as Serbia's direct involvement in and attitude towards the road to war, it concludes that the existing focus on Milošević's Serbia has been misplaced. Serbia's stance towards Croatia was hardline, but Belgrade's influence over the Croatian Serbs was limited and its direct involvement in events minimal. Milošević did not have a grand plan to orchestrate violence in Croatia, and the leaders of the Serbian rebellion in Croatia were fundamentally independent and autonomous actors, who, far from being Milošević's puppets, were often in conflict with him.

  • The Power of God's Servants: Catholic Hierarchy and the Independent
    The Power of God’s Servants: Catholic Hierarchy and the Independent State of Croatia Daniel Schumick The Catholic Church’s role in the Holocaust has been hotly contested for decades. Countless polemics have emerged from historians, journalists, and clergy denouncing the Catholic Church, Pope Pius XII in particular, for its seemingly idle stance on Nazism and the Holocaust. For every polemic denouncing The Church there exists a polemic defending or apologizing for its actions. The excuses given in defense of The Church range from a lack of power to a fear of retribution against Catholics. Many of these apologetics and counter arguments spend their time focusing on Vatican relations with France, Germany, Italy, or Poland (where Church activity saw the most success). These apologists, often ignore the fate of the 30,000 Jews1 and the 330,000-390,000 Serbians2 who perished under the Ustasha regime of the Independent Croatian State (NDH). However, a number of historians3 have criticized the Catholic Church’s relationship with the NDH and its failure to intervene in the killings committed under a self-proclaimed Catholic State. Perhaps the most articulated argument, as well as free of ethnic, religious, or national bias, has been crafted by historian Michael Phayer. Phayer argues that since Croatia was a “Catholic State”, the papacy could have acted against the NDH with no fear of retribution and in choosing not to act, the Church lost an important opportunity to exercise moral leadership.4 This argument appears to be very solid as many of the academic works defending the Church avoid the topic of Croatia all together: Frank J.

  • 'Today, the Situation with Jews in Croatia Is Just Ugly' from Division to Pluralism in Croatian Jewish Community
    ‘TODAY, THE SITUATION WITH JEWS IN CROATIA IS JUST UGLY’ FROM DIVISION TO PLURALISM IN CROATIAN JEWISH COMMUNITY By Biljana Lalic Submitted to Central European University Department of Nationalism Studies In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Supervisor: Professor András Kovács Budapest, Hungary CEU eTD Collection 2016 ABSTRACT The aim of this thesis is to demonstrate that the current situation of the division in the Croatian Jewish community goes beyond the binary discourse of revival vs. disappearance of Jewish communal life in post-communist Europe. The emergence of Bet Israel, an Orthodox religious community in Croatia, in 2006 serves as a case study for examining the impact of internal and external determinates on the group(s) making process. The methodology employed to argue the hypothesis involves qualitative research conducted in Zagreb, in April 2016, with three generations of Croatian Jews. Findings of the research propose that there is a strong need for belonging to a significant Jewish group among Jews in Croatia. Expressed in different institutional options, it reflects the plurality of groupness crystallization processes. Key words: Jewish revival, disappearance thesis, groupness, pluralism CEU eTD Collection i ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Firstly, I would like to thank András Kovács, my supervisor, for useful comments and suggestions. Without his help, this thesis would not have been possible. Secondly, I would like to express my gratitude to all of the participants in this research who have selflessly dedicated their time and energy to provide their contribution to this work. Lastly, I want to thank my friends and colleagues for the inspiration they provided me with, as well as immense support in the process.

    chapter 12 How Does This Monument Make You Feel? Measuring Emotional Responses to War Memorials in Croatia Vjeran Pavlaković and Benedikt Perak Since the collapse of communism and the disintegration of Yugoslavia, collective remembrance in all of the successor states has undergone dramatic transformations as part of nation-building projects and strategies to bolster the legitimacy of new political elites. This has included nationalist revision- ism of the narratives of the Second World War and the creation of founding myths based on the bloody wars accompanying Yugoslavia’s dissolution. Al- though there is a general agreement across the political spectrum regarding the dominant nation-building narrative in Croatia, which emphasizes its vic- tory in the War of Independence (known as the Domovinski rat, or Homeland War, 1991–1995), there is considerably less consensus over the Second World War.1 This so-called ‘red-black ideological division’ in society is manifested in seemingly perpetual politicized debates over communist Partisans, fascist Ustaša, and Serb extremist Četniks, which is then additionally distorted by the more recent traumas of the 1990s conflict. The need for unity during the Homeland War led to the policy of ‘national reconciliation’ under the first Cro- atian president, Franjo Tuđman, which emphasized the struggle for statehood as one of the goals of the Croatian Partisans and concurrently whitewashed the Ustaša movement of its fascist ideology. The long-term consequences were the demonization of the antifascist struggle

Ivo Goldstein Odsjek za povijest, Filozofski fakultet Univerziteta u Zagrebu [email protected] Sažetak: U ovom tekstu autor analizira metodološke koncepte koji su tijekom desetljeća bili korišteni u pisanju povijesti Drugog svjetskog rata u Bosni i Hercegovini te kako bi valjalo pisati danas. Umjesto da se lakune u znanjima koje su skrupulozni istraživači s demokratiza- cijom i liberalizacijom nakon 1990. godine mogli popuniti, pritisak politike i rat snažno su pridonijeli novim mistifikacijama i mitologizacijama. Štoviše, neke već utvrđene činjenice dovedene su u sumnju ili su čak u dijelu javnosti posve odbačene.
