	Draxblog III: Croatia - Politics
		Many in Croatia are now reminded tthat Czech Republic and Poland entered EU despite rejecting similar German and Austrian demands - this makes Sanader looks less of a foreign policy genius and brilliant statesman than the builders of his personality cult in certain newspapers tried to portray.
		In Croatia, however, he is going to ride out this storm by having the treaty defeated in Sabor and thus creating the illusion of listening to the public.
		Croatia is, according to the survey, one of the most corrupt countries of Europe - with only the likes of Serbia, Bosnia, Rumania and Macedonia being perceived as more corrupt.

		Miller's aim is not to provide a full political history of Croatia in the last decades of Dualism, but rather to examine the political strategies available to Serb parties in Croatia within the confines of their double-minority status.
		These two versions of citizenship and political identity are presented more as stages of political evolution than as ideological alternatives, and for Miller "modernity" in politics is seen as inextricably linked to a transition from corporate to individualist conceptions of citizenship.
		The politics of corporate identity and imperial patronage may have offered the Serbs of pre-war Croatia a more concrete set of possibilities for protecting their identity in the face of Croat and Magyar pressure than Miller credits.

	Kroc Institute : The Politics of Nationalism in Croatia and Slovakia
		Although their pre-1990 politics under communism differed significantly, in both Croatia and Slovakia nationalist politicians won leadership in the post-communist elections and took their republics out of their 20th century states.
		Despite the fact that the agents of dissolution varied immensely, from a Serbian-designed war aimed at restoring Serbian hegemony to a tacit bargain between Slovak and Czech leaders, the post-communist politics of Croatia and Slovakia demonstrate marked similarities, particularly in the development of political parties and minority politics.
		In both, as the newly-formed political parties attempt the transition from temporary groupings to participants in parliamentary politics, the most salient political element remains nationalism.

		It is the first serious study in English to examine primarily the role of the Serb Independent Party in Croatian politics and its efforts to forge ties with the Croat political opposition in the form of the Croato-Serb Coalition (1905-1918).
		Miller explains how Serbs in Croatia struggled and were divided over the question of how best to preserve their national identity from the perceived threats of Croat and Magyar assimilation.
		The party's leaders supported Croatia's constitutional sovereignty in the face of Hungarian encroachments, and they tentatively accepted the idea of a Croatian political nation comprised of citizens of many faiths and cultures.

	Croatian Politics Croatia And Slovenia To Address Issues
		Croatia and Slovenia should address their outstanding issues "through dialogue in the spirit of our good neighbourly relations" rather than communicate through protest notes, the Croatian Foreign Ministry said in a note to the Slovenian Embassy in Zagreb in connection with Croatia's intention to proclaim an economic zone in the Adriatic Sea.
		The note came as a response to the Slovenian note of August 11 in which Slovenia expressed its position in the event that Croatia proclaims an exclusive economic zone in its part of the Adriatic.
		In the latest note, Croatia said that the issue was discussed in Ljubljana on May 13, 2003, and that Zagreb was still awaiting a response to its proposal that representatives of the two countries meet between September 15 and 19.

	H-Net Review: Lohr Miller on Between Nation and State: Serbian Politics in Croatia Before ...
		This era--the era of the Serb-Croat Coalition in the Croatian Sabor--began with the "New Course" of cooperation between Serb and Croat parties and saw that cooperation wither in the aftermath of the Zagreb treason trials of 1909 and ended with the capitulation of the Coalition to the Tisza government in Hungary in 1913.
		Miller's real interest is the larger issue of the political defense of national identity, the ability of stateless peoples--national minorities--to become full members of a political nation without losing their cultural identity.
		Such a corporate conception of politics is seen here as "anti-modern" in its essence; a "modern" conception of politics grounds identity in shared individual values and not in group membership.

		During the worst war days in 1991, the government of national reconciliation was formed, however beside that short period the new-born state was governed unilaterally by HDZ itself.
		Objectively, more than 100.000 people appeared on the Zagreb's Jelacic place the next day, what is enormous number considering that the total population of the city is one million and that radio cannot be heard even in the whole urban area.
		Although the accusations against him should be considered seriously, under doubtful assumption that Croatian courts are free of politics, his greatest "sin" is probably freezing his party membership while holding this responsible office.

		The author discusses why countries such as Czechoslovakia, Poland, and Hungary achieved relatively peaceful revolutions while Croatia became enmeshed in domestic strife and conflict with neighboring Serbia.
		It is argued that Croatia failed to achieve a peaceful democratic transition because its political activists and leaders--journalists, intellectuals, trade unionists--failed to coalesce into an effective political force.
		It is further contended that a peaceful transition would have been more likely had reformist communists played a greater role in Croatian politics in 1989.

		As Miller (history, Boise State Univ.) makes clear, before the "first" (post-World War I) Yugoslavia, Croatia's large Serb minority was deeply divided by the dilemma of seeking to reaffirm their traditional privileges within the Austro-Hungarian Empire or cooperating with the Croats against it.
		The rise and decline of the "Croato-Serbian Coalition" is emblematic of the obstacles to Balkan cooperation and the nefarious impact of the extraregional interference.
		This readable and well researched study of the Serbian community in Croatia sheds bright light on the political, ethic, and regional rivalries that endure in the tragedy of modern Yugoslavia.
