“The Big Ones and the Small Ones”. Euro Introduction and National Currency in Croatia
Marek Mikuš

Sažetak
This article analyses Croatian public discourse on euro introduction from the perspective of two areas of the anthropology of money and finance: the role of discourse in this sphere of social life and the layered and varied nature of currency, including the euro as an example of its contemporary transformations. It further situates this discourse in the politico-economic context of currency inequality. The key finding is that the discourse has been marked by hegemonic narratives about Croatia as a small and open economy, as a country with an inflationary past, and as a peripheral country that can join the centre by adopting the euro.
