Abstract

This paper reviews the 20th century historiography of the city of Varaždin and its region. The chronological historiographical overview is organised in the following sections: the period until the end of the First World War, the Inter-war period, the Second World War, socialist Yugoslavia and the Croatian War of Independence. Several historical themes – both broad and narrow - that historians have researched are examined, such as political, economic, cultural and social history, and the history of certain city institutions. The authors argue that history of Varaždin in 20th century is one of the less studied periods in its 800 years history. Furthermore, they argue that certain periods in Varaždin´s modern history are unevenly researched.
