A HISTORICAL TEST CASE: WAS FRANJO TUĐMAN AN AUTHORITARIAN NATIONALIST?

James J. Sadkovich



Abstract

The author examined the presuppositions, prejudices, and simple material interests that tend to influence the judgments of journalists, publicists, and historians in historical matters. He uses the example of Franjo Tuđman, using the late Croatian leader’swritings and political activity to question claims that he was an authoritarian figure and a dangerous nationalist.
