Democratic Transition In Croatia

Vlasta Ilišin

Abstract

In this article the authoress analyses some normative, institutional-political and social-cultural
aspects of social and political system, that influence the process of democratic transition
in Croatia. The results of the analysis of the secondary and of the original empirical
data pointed at possible issues of political disputes as well as at some elements that might
slow down liberalization and democratization of Croatian society. The most of the results
found direct at a conclusion that democratic potential of the citizens of modern Croatia
overcomes the inaugurated political practice. For that reason it is expected that in peace
time the process of democratization will grow more intensive and more comprehensive.
But, it means at the same time that in social and political field the existing different interests,
which were suppressed in war time, should be expected to be more clearly profiled,
articulated and presented.

Keywords
