Class Voting in Croatia
This paper examines whether class influences vote choice in Croatia, a least-likely case for class voting given three decades of cultural cleavage dominance and party convergence on economic policy. This relationship remains understudied in post-socialist contexts where class mobilization was historically suppressed, and parties never supplied class-differentiated choices. Using original data from the 2024 Croatian National Electoral Study, we te…
Democratic Continuity or Regression
This article deals with the level of democracy in Croatia after EU accession. The first part presents key events, processes, and actors which have shaped the trajectory of democratic development. The second part discusses the Croatian case in the context of current research on democratic backsliding. The third part tests the idea about democratic backsliding in Croatia by running regression models with democracy indices derived from the Varieties…
Between Stale Stability and Dynamic Contestation
This article uses national survey data, quantitative party system indicators, as well as manifesto data to assess the proposition whether the Croatian party system is indeed one of the most stable systems among post-communist EU member states. The analysis spans three decades and focuses on changes after EU accession and confirms long-term stability of the Croatian party system. However, after the 2015 election, there was a decline in the popular…

Socijaldemokracija u Hrvatskoj
U kontekstu opće krize i opadanja političke potpore socijaldemokraciji članak se usredotočuje na socijaldemokraciju u Hrvatskoj i na razinu izborne potražnje. Nastojeći pridonijeti razumijevanju stanja socijaldemokracije u Hrvatskoj, analizira se odnos ideološkog samoidentificiranja birača i njihovih stranačkih preferencija na primjeru socijaldemokracije i glasovanja za SDP. Na temelju podataka dobivenih terenskim anketnim istraživanjima u razdob…
Centrist and Radical Right Populists in Central and Eastern Europe
This article compares the politics of history and positions in the EU of six ruling populist leaders and their parties (Fidesz, PiS, SDS, GERB, ANO and OĽaNO) from Central and Eastern European (CEE) EU member states. Through the comparison of leaders’ biographies and longitudinal analysis of party electoral manifestos an overlap between two types of CEE populism and two types of mnemonic actors in the region is found. Radical right-wing populist …
Razvoj izučavanja hrvatske politike od šezdesetih do danas
U radu se nudi povijesni pregled razvoja izučavanja hrvatske politike na Fakultetu političkih znanosti od osnivanja institucije do danas. Razdoblje prije demokratskih promjena bilo je obilježeno relativno nepovoljnim uvjetima za razvoj izučavanja nacionalne politike, kako zbog dominantne koncepcije studija koja je poricala samostalnost politologije tako i zbog političkoga i društvenog konteksta. Pa ipak, već u 1960-im i 1970-im godinama nastaju p…
Ideology, Partisanship, and Change
This paper analyzes changes in the Croatian party system in the 1990-2016 period by looking at trends in the ideological makeup of voters of the main center-right (HDZ) and center-left (SDP) parties. An assessment of changes in voter self-placement on a left-right scale has shown a gradual increase in the ideological distance among voters of these parties. Further, the paper detected a trend towards an increase in the share of self-declared far-r…
Bilingual street signs policy in EU member states
This paper explores linguistic landscapes and the enactment of public visibility and presence of non-majority linguistic groups in EU member states. Non-majority linguistic groups gain power, visibility and presence through the introduction of bilingual or multilingual signposts on roads, streets, squares, and public buildings in towns and cities where a given linguistic group represents a significant population share. The article offers a compar…
