Abstract
The paper discusses the reception of Dinko Tomašić's political sociology
before and after the Second World War, mainly in Croatia. Four phases
are emphasized here. The first phase is marked by the prevalence of
critical discourse, whether a rightwing (during the second half ofthe 30s)
or a leftwing one (in the SOs). The latter induced a period of almost
complete oblivion during the 60s and 70s. The third phase (the aOs) is
characterized by the appearance of pioneering essays dealing
exclusively with Tomašić's prewar writtings. The big turn took place at the
beginning of th 90s when we witnessed the first comprehensive
biographical studies, as well as the first applications ofTomašić's models
to the causes of war in former Yugoslavia.
