Sažetak
In my presentation, I will touch on theoretical controversies and their social components related to the acceptance of feminist ideas in the former Yugoslavia, using the examples of selected Croatian feminist philosophers. The basis of these controversies was the political-economic nature of the ruling ideology, which in feminist demands saw either bourgeois innovation imported from the West or a tendency that in socialist terms deserved to be only secondary to class, i.e. labour struggle. The latter position, despite some socialist efforts on gender equality, proved to be wrong, which was analysed in the works of a Croatian feminist philosopher Blaženka Despot. As for the first position, it is true that Croatian feminist philosophers encountered difficulties in adapting numerous feminist ideas to a specific socio-cultural context, making their own contribution, the contribution of the European semi-periphery, to the feminist intellectual corpus all the more important.
