Sažetak
The article discusses how citizens of Croatia perceive socialism today, which elements from socialism they evoke, recreate and reinterpret to address their current problems, and how they use them in order to define what postsocialism is. The authors pursue this research aim by focusing on two niches in which socialist legacy is reinvented or challenged. The first case study belongs to the sphere of cultural practices and public events, concretely of celebrations of the former socialist holidays that still occur in present-day Croatia. The second case study, based on the artwork of Ivan Fijolić, refers to the realm of art, which the authors approach as an arena in which new dominant cultural values are brought to public sight, but also criticized, in some cases through juxtaposing them with the elements of the (socialist) past. The article combines approaches and methodology of ethnology, cultural anthropology and art theory.
