Sažetak

Seljačka Sloga (Peasant Unity) was the most important organization for cultural advancement and education among peasants in Croatia during the interwar period. The idea for such an organization was first conceived in 1920, but for political reasons, was not established until 1925. In spite of insufficient financial resources, the results proved to be overwhelming. For the four years of the organization's existence, 216 branches were founded throughout Croatia which numbered over 9000 members. Seljačka Sloga's most important activities included: courses in literacy, general lectures on varied subjects, and cultural and folkloric activities. Politically, the organization was a part of the Croatian Peasant Party, by far the most important political party at the time. With the coming of King Aleksandar's dictatorship. Seljačka Sloga was forced to disband. This was a huge blow to the Croatian peasantry.
