Sažetak

Bunjevačko-šokačka Party (B-Š), established in 1920, continued the prewar tradition of political activity carried out by the Croats of Bačka and Baranja. At the time of the creation of political parties in the new state, the political leaders of the Croats in Bačka and Baranja decided to continue their political struggles by forming their own regional party. In the Parliamentary elections of 1920 and 1923, the party scored major successes, but a crisis entered its ranks in 1924. One part of its membership wanted to continue its activities along so-called “popular” line, while the other part drew ever closer to the Croat Republican Peasant Party of Stjepan Radić. As a result, in 1924 Blaško Rajić, one of the B-Š party's most prominent members, broke with the party to form the People's Party of Vojvodina. The elections of 1925 revealed that the majority of Croats in Bačka remained loyal to the B-Š party, which was working ever more closely with Stjepan Radić. In 1926, the entire party joined the HSS. From then on, the HSS became the most important Croatian party in Bačka and Baranja.
