About the Book

Croatia is a magnificent land full of surprises. Visitors are amazed to discover a country with spectacular natural wonders, a great culinary tradition, excellent wine, architecture, a beautiful language, and a vibrant national culture. While it is a small country when measured in square miles, market size, or military power, it has a rich culture that has profoundly impacted the world. The contributors to Croatian Cultural Renaissance: From the Margins to the Crossroad of Europe were the protagonists who survived the communist period and then lived through the fraught period of the Croatian War of Independence in the 1990s; they worked to understand, build, and preserve their cultural identity and freedom as Croatian people. They are diplomats, government officials, artists, and academics who are recognized within Croatia for their intellectual prowess and for their vital and noteworthy contributions to their country. While the chapters explore different areas of Croatia’s national culture, they are united in showing how the national identity and ethos have deep roots and provide insight in what it means to be Croatian today.

Review :
The Croatian Cultural Renaissance: From the Margins to the Crossroads of Europe stands out as a timely and invaluable compilation of original articles and case studies authored by prominent historians, philosophers, political theorists, sociologists, and emerging scholars. This collection offers profound insights and analyses into the intricate intersection of culture and politics within one of Europe's newly established states. The contributors delve into diverse perspectives on how culture has served as the foundation for the evolution of Croatian identity and nation-building policies, spanning both recent and historically distant eras. Notably, several contributors are esteemed and widely recognized scholars, and their exceptional case studies explore key focal points in the dynamic landscape of real-world formation of a newly constituted nation-state.
