Sažetak
In the last decade, historical debates on the first Yugoslav state (first the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats, and Slovenes and after 1929, the Kingdom of Yugoslavia) do not provoke the kind of polemics among Croatian historians and the broader public to the degree that more recent events, namely World War Two and the Croatian War for Independence (Domovinski rat), tend to do in both academic circles and the media.Although it seems that the interwar period in Croatia has been covered extensively by the country’s historians, in fact it is relatively neglected in comparison to other periods and remains immune to more ambitious scholarly investigations which would move beyond reaffirming the seemingly sacred conclusion that the first Yugoslavia was universally detrimental to the Croatian economy, society, culture, and politics. It is not surprising that Croatian historians continue to disagree with their Serbian colleagues over interpretations of the interwar period, but the important thing is that a dialogue is maintained and that the literature is available for scholars across borders.
