Sažetak

Catholic biweekly newspapers Glas Koncila from its beginnings (fall of 1963) drew much attention from the ecclesiastical public. This interest was followed with much praise and the continuing rise of subscriptions during the first decade of publishing. Still, besides the approvals during this period these newspapers met some criticism from the ecclesiastical public and ecclesiastical leadership. In the beginning, these critics were related to the editorial policy of supporting the post-council renewal of the Catholic Church, while later critics also debated questions regarding the moral catechism of the Church, and in the late 60s and in the beginning of the 70s the editorial board was sometimes accused because of the »import of progressist ideas« from the West and support of »rebellious spirits« against legal ecclesiastical authorities; especially after several church »cases« significantly marked the life of the Church within the Croatian people of that time. Moreover, at that time certain groups of believers debated about Glas Koncila, too, and similarly, members of the highest ecclesiastical authorities in the country expressed their concern about the newspapers. Some of the representatives of the ecclesiastical authorities even wrote protest letters to the editorial board and to the editor-in-chief (arch)bishop Franjo Kuharić. Furthermore, certain articles published in Glas Koncila were discussed on the councils of the Bishops Conference of Yugoslavia. All critics questioned the editorial policy and requested its change, or at least that the Church should openly distance from such editorial policy and such newspapers. Authors of the article have analyzed the published text in the newspapers, as well as critique, together with some – up to now – not known archival sources from the period between 1963 and 1972. Finally, they gave an overview of all the tensions that (post)conciliar renewal provoked not only within the Catholic Church in some countries in Western Europe but also among the Croatian people.
