Abstract
Based on the documentation of conflicting parties in the Second World War in Croatia, the work deals with the interpretation and analysis of educational culture of that time. At the beginning the definition of educational culture is presented and the historical context (Kingdom of Yugoslavia) preceded it and its position based on relevant literature during World War II. Then, from 1941 to 1945, for each year individually, the author analyzes the relevant documents of the conflicting parties (Ustashas, Italians and Partisans) based on which forms the thesis of three types of educational culture in Croatia at that time. The characteristics of educational culture in Croatia in the light of conflicting documents can be synthesized in three types. The reason is different military units that have military, political, and educational management in the area they were in. Therefore, we can not speak of duality of the educational system in Croatia, according to literature, rather than triple. Thus, the educational-educational culture had three types: one under Ustasha influences dominating the territory of Croatia, others under Italian, actually fascist influences along with Dalmatia and ultimately partisan, ie communist influence in the attempt; dominant also in Dalmatia and Slavonia. Territorial access to educational cultures was correlated with the “strength” of the military and political authorities of the conflicting sides in a particular geographic area
