Abstract

In this article, the author singles out the historiographic work of Mirjana Gross
on the topic of labour and social democratic movements in Croatia in the long
nineteenth century, highlighting and separately analyzing the important contributions
with regard to theoretical approaches and applied methodologies. The author specifically questions whether Gross applied Marxist concepts in these works and whether they can be considered Marxist historiography. These works are furthermore contextualized within the framework of contemporary Croatian and European historiography. The author concludes that Gross followed the developmental trends of European historiography, that her research was grounded in characteristically Marxist paradigms, and shows how her theoretical understandings shifted in the direction of developed structuralism and post-structuralism. The article provides an overview of Croatian historiography on labour and social democratic movements, and more important recent works of European historiography are considered.
