Sažetak
In this chapter, the dynamics of Mediterranean identifications in Croatian popular music will be explored. Klapa singing holds considerable symbolic capital and prestige as renowned intangible cultural heritage of Croatia. Klapa is also regarded as a quintessentially Mediterranean (Ćaleta 1999) cultural form. As klapa’s popularity increased since the early 2000s, a new model/genre of klapa singing could be delineated: it is best placed within popular music and I call it neoklapa. Popular music discourse has a major role in the construal of space, places and symbolic geography (Žanić 2012, 185–86). Due to klapa’s popularity on the one hand and its strong symbolic ties with the Mediterranean on the other, neoklapa and the identity representations within provide a suitable site of exploration of how Croatian- as-Mediterranean identity is being represented and articulated.
