Sažetak
The colloquium consists of four presentations, with the goal of presenting various aspects of the role of sport in different types of crisis experienced by the Croatian society during the last four decades. Accordingly, “Croatian Football Supporter Groups in the midst of the Fall of Socialism” (Ivan Hrstic ; Benjamin Perasovic ; Marko Mustapic) addresses the development of football supporters culture in Croatia during the 1980s. Particular attention is paid to the analysis of archival materials made by the Yugoslav secret service. “Sport, Diaspora, and Identities: Rugby in Croatia between the Media Image and Reality” (Marko Mustapic ; Ivan Hrstic) considers the role of sport in the (re)construction of diaspora identity. Focus is put on New Zealanders of Croatian origin who have played for the Croatian national team. The paper is based on the analysis of media discourse toward this phenomenon and a number of interviews made with athletes. „Futsal Dinamo - supporters run club as an innovative response to the crisis“ (Dino Vukusic) discusses the supporter project of Futsal Dinamo as an alternative club to GNK Dinamo. On the basis of ethnographic research and semi-structured interviews the author interprets the struggle for Dinamo as a fight for the club’s democratization and the fight for returning football to the local community. „COVID-19 and the mobilization of ultras: From hooligans to community heroes - and back” (Benjamin Perasovic ; Marko Mustapic) analyzes the action of ultras groups during the most recent crisis.
