Abstract
The authors present the idea of Yugoslavia as a federal state (Croatian view of a common state) and as a unitary and centralised one. The conflict between these two concepts actually occurred in the nineteenth century, shaped by the first ideas of a common state of South Slavs and lasted up until the dissolution of Yugoslavia in 1991.
