Sažetak
The paper presents a state terror of the Independent State of Croatia (Nezavisna Država Hrvatska, NDH), presenting the example of Brčko, a town in north-eastern Bosnia. During 1941 representatives of NDH authorities and the ruling Ustasha movement in Brčko initiated a wave of terror against local Serbs and Jews that went even beyond the terror policies introduced by the central NDH authorities. The paper shows how certain elements in NDH authorities and the Ustasha movement also objected to such policies and how, during 1942, the state terror decreased. Author emphasizes how certain wider political and military developments and circumstances also influenced the change of NDH policy and decrease of its violence in Brčko.
