Sažetak

In this paper, I analyse Croatian citizenship policies in the post-communist
context and argue that it is a very instructive case for understanding the citizenship
conundrum that followed the end of the communist regimes in Central
and Eastern Europe. Almost everywhere in post-communist Europe, and
especially in the post-partition states formed after the collapse of socialist
multinational federations, new citizenship legislation and administrative practices
frequently resulted in creating three distinct categories of individuals:
the included, the excluded, and the invited (more often than not ethnic kin
abroad). I put a special focus on the transformations of the citizenship policies
in Croatia and how the dynamic between the included, the excluded and
the invited changed from nationalist Croatia in the 1990s to an EU-oriented
Croatia in the 2000s. The analysis of Croatian citizenship policies allows me
to suggest that post-Tuđman Croatia can be seen as an exemplary case of ethnic
democracy according to the criteria defined by Sammy Smooha.
