Abstract
The article analyses the causes behind the creation of the socialist
Workers’ Council in Rijeka (Fiume) in 1918 and presents biographies of figures mentioned among its’ thirty-one members. Starting from a historiography that generally omitted references to this workers organization, I show that working-class identification, understood politically, has not to be omitted from historical considerations. By contesting typical national narratives, the article emphasize that socialists were not an unnational force. Socialists considered national identification a realistic factor without endorsing nation-state as a
political option. Additionally, the Workers’ council directions testify socialists’ inclusion inside the local Fiumian Habsburg society. Thus, socialists’ activity demonstrates that the multinational experience of the Habsburg monarchy was not forgotten in 1918. Yet, it was revived and reshaped in other forms such as the request for establishing Fiume as an independent republic. Further, workers’ biographies show that following Workers’ council short experience various political trajectories were taken. Besides political affliations with Italian nationalism, fascism or political passivity, in some individual persisted a left-wing orientation. Another contribution on the importance of researching the continuity of class identification.
