Sažetak

How do stereotypes work while national images are built? This is one of the major questions in our long-term research project. As the first step towards finding answers to this question, this paper explores Japanese stereotypes of Croatia as a case example through qualitative approaches. The main reasons Japanese stereotypes are discussed here are: 1) we believe that Japanese people do not have a strong bias toward Croatia, either positive or negative, and 2) we hope to somehow contribute to Croatian tourism strategies, which should be based on the creation of a good national image – Croatia can become a more popular destination for more Japanese people. One of the main objectives of this paper is to contribute to the Croatian tourism industry, as well as to research stereotypes and national branding based on these motives.
