Churches in an Ever-Changing Socio-Political Context
The crumbling of Communist rule in Eastern Europe between 1989 and 1991 did not restore the status quo ante where religion was concerned. Among the developments that marked a new era were the arrival of missionaries from American religious organizations, the shrinkage of belief in God and hell, the energizing of the Churches’ engagement with their sexual agendas (especially where the Catholic and Orthodox Churches were concerned), and the embolde…

Serbia and the War in Ukraine
The war in Ukraine has created a situation in which the Republic of Serbia may see an opportunity to take up some unfinished business; for this purpose, Serbia has recently been purchasing armaments from Russia and China and has sought also to purchase 12 fighter jets from France. The Serbian government does not recognize the sovereignty of Kosovo and regards the land controlled by Prishtina as rightfully Serbian, while the Republika Srpska (the …
A Socio-political Overview of Post-socialist Southeastern Europe Today
According to Freedom House, those southeast European states which have joined the European Union are "free" while the rest are "partly free. " For ordinary citizens, the most important issues are corruption, unemployment, and poverty. There is an approximate correlation between Freedom House's assessments of democratic attainment and local perceptions of corruption: the more corrupt the country, the less democratic it is likely to be. The media a…

The three phases of rock music in the Czech lands
In the Czech lands (included in Czechoslovakia until the end of 1992), rock music has evolved through three phases. In the first phase, lasting until 1968, rock musicians had no ambition to offer social or political commentaries. This began as the era of rock ‘n’ roll, which is to say music being performed for dancing. The second phase began after the Soviet bloc invasion of Czechoslovakia in August 1968, lasting until the end of the communist er…

Central and Eastern European Media under Dictatorial Rule and in the Early Cold War/Central and Eastern European Media in Comparative Perspective
The Know Nothing Party
The 19th century was a time of rapid population growth in the United States, and much of it was due to immigration from Europe. In the 1840s and 1850s, the largest proportion of immigrants came from Ireland and Germany, and most were Catholic. The Germans spread across small communities as far west as Wisconsin and Texas, but the Irish concentrated in the larger cities on the eastern seaboard, especially Boston, New York, Philadelphia, and Baltim…
Autonomism and Decentralization in Serbia's Regions
In this special issue, four scholars examine issues of autonomism and decentralization in three regions of Serbia: Vojvodina, the Preševo triangle (or Preševo Valley), and Sandžak.The fi rst article in this set is Jovan Komšić's contribution on autonomism in Vojvodina.Although autonomism in Vojvodina may be traced back to the founding of the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats, and Slovenes after the close of World War I, it was only in the 1960s, Komšić no…
Nationalism and the ‘idiocy’ of the countryside
The mobilization of the countryside has direct consequences for political discourse about national values and in times of social crisis, the ‘conservatism’ of the countryside has the potential to assume an aggressive, offensive posture. When rural mobilization is accompanied by religious revival, group loyalty and so‐called ‘traditional’ values are sacralized. When rural mobilization, ethnic mobilization, and religious revival occur simultaneousl…
Gender Reversals and Gender Cultures
The denial syndrome and its consequences
Since the outbreak of the War of Yugoslav Succession in 1991 and the subsequent atrocities, a significant portion of Serbian society, including the upper echelons of the government, has displayed symptoms of the denial syndrome, in which guilt is transposed onto the Croats, Bosniaks, and Kosovar Albanians. This syndrome is also associated with a veneration for the victimized hero, with sinister attribution error, and with tendencies toward dyspho…
Explaining the Yugoslav meltdown, 1
We all know why the Socialist Federated Republic of Yugoslavia (SFRY) disintegrated and why the War of Yugoslav Succession (1991–1995) broke out. It was all because of Milošević/Tudjman/“the Slovenes”/communists/organized crime/Western states/the Vatican–Comintern conspiracy, who planned it all by himself/themselves in order to advance his own personal/Serbian/Slovenian/American/Vatican interests—your choice. Or again—it all happened because of l…

Eastern Europe's Unfinished Business
Croatia and Serbia since 1991
In spite of ostensibly similar starting points in 1991, Croatia and Serbia have followed somewhat different political trajectories since then. Three alternative hypotheses may be advanced to account for this. The first draws attention to differences in the degree of corruption and criminalization of politics. The second emphasizes structural and institutional differences, which widened in the years since 1991. The third stresses the impact of his…
Explaining the Yugoslav meltdown, 2
The argument to be presented here is that the Yugoslav meltdown involved three factors or sets of factors: first, the various underlying problems such as economic deterioration, political illegitimacy, and structural factors which drove the system toward crisis; second, the presence and persistence of inter-ethnic resentments deriving from irreconcilable national historical narratives in which Yugoslavia's constituent peoples cast each other as “…

Views from Inside
Recent memoirs published in Zagreb, Ljubljana, Sarajevo, and Podgorica offer glimpses into how the principals would like their roles in the events connected with the Yugoslav breakup and war to be remembered. The most indispensable of the ten memoirs under review are those by Janez Drnovšek and Janez Janša, who have differing perspectives on developments in Slovenia between 1988 and 1991; by Martin Špegelj, who outlines in detail his argument tha…

made aware that it was a minority Church. Already in the Kingdom of Yugoslavia the Church was unable to obtain a concordat even though the Vatican had obtained similar concordats with most other European governments. Later, after the Second World War, the communist government used the fact of fascist collaboration by a certain sector of the clergy to tarnish the entire Church, even though both the Vatican and Archbishop Stepinac had spoken out du…
Slovenia's road to democracy
WITH LESS THAN TWO MILLION INHABITANTS and no history of independent statehood in the last millennium, Slovenia seemed to many in the West to be an unlikely candidate for independence. Advocates of large states warned in vain that Slovenia was 'too small' to be viable and suggested that if the republic separated from Yugoslavia, it would inevitably find it necessary to join a federal or confederal union with one of its neighbours-whether Austria,…

Vladko Maček and Croatian History
Vladko Maček (1871–1964) became the leader of the Croatian Peasant Party (HSS) in the Kingdom of Yugoslavia after the assassination of Stjepan Radić (1871–1928). In this capacity, he played a pivotal role in Croatian and Yugoslav politics during the critical years 1928–41, when the clouds of war were gathering over Europe, and during the first phase of World War Two. Today he is best remembered for having negotiated the Cvetković-Maček Sporazum (…
The Dissolution of Yugoslavia
Serbs, Croats, Kosovar Albanians, and Bosniaks remember the past differently and, although there are differences of historical memory within each group, one can speak of there being a dominant but evolving historical narrative among each of these national groups. This diversity of historical memory creates resources which may be tapped by ambitious leaders. In accounting for the Yugoslav meltdown, however, one may identify three necessary conditi…

The New Church-state Configuration in Eastern Europe
Religious Policy in the Soviet Union
Church-state relations have undergone a number of changes during the seven decades of the existence of the Soviet Union. In the 1920s the state was politically and financially weak and its edicts often ignored, but the 1930s saw the beginning of an era of systematic anti-religious persecution. There was some relaxation in the last decade of Stalin's rule, but under Khrushchev the pressure on the Church was again stepped up. In the Brezhev period …
