Development of the International Studies in Croatia

Lidija Čehulić ; Ministry of Defense, Republic of Croatia

Abstract

The independence of the Republic of Croatia increased the interest in international relations in the country. Needs of a new state, struggle for international recognition, termination of war and the desire for stronger ties with the West required a number of professionally trained people and structured institutions which would represent, establish and lead new strategy of foreign policy in the conditions of a changed international atmosphere. Already in the former federation, Croatia and especially its capital - Zagreb have lead the scientific research of international relations, with their professional staff, institutions, publishing and foreign contacts. Such a valuable heritage, respected in the international circles, should be a cornerstone in establishing new directions, objectives and methods of research of such a complex field as international relations.
