Sažetak
Territorial cooperation is a mainstream objective of EU regional policy today. During the 1990s numerous cross­border regions in Europe were established. In Croatia, the first was the Danube–Drava–Sava Euroregion in 1998. This article analyses intercultural dialogue and cultural interaction in three Croatian Euroregions (Adriatic Ionian, Danube–Drava–Sava and Drina–Sava–Majevica) through three types of information relevant and collected for this examination: general informations, historic heritage and cultural events. The paper has three aims related to the state of successful Euroregions. The first aim is to research whether Croatian Euroregions have intercultural dialogue and cultural interaction in their territory. The second, is to explore how Euroregions accomplish intercultural dialogue and cultural interaction in their territory and the third is to explore possible reasons for uneven development. I intend to show through a comparative case study analysis that intercultural dialogue in Croatian Euroregions exist, but is very unequal, due to the fact that they differ greatly in the degree of success and personal engagement of individuals involved in the work of the Euroregion.
