Abstract
The language development of the second half of the 20th century was influenced considerably by the extralinguistic (social and political) situation. Although the state had guaranteed legal equality to all its languages after 1945, in reality the idea of a Croatian and Serbian linguistic and orthographic unity was growing stronger and stronger. The opposition to the Yugoslav unitarist policy would gain strength at the end of the 1960's, which would result in the publication of the Deklaracija o nazivu i položaju hrvatskoga književnog jezika (Declaration on the name and status of the Croatian literary language) as well as in an increasing promotion of the Croatian linguistic and orthographic peculiarities. This paper demonstrates the manner and extent of the influence of the political situation on the language of public media in Istria in the second half of the 20th century. The research is focused on the orthographical, morphological, syntactical and lexical characteristics in the journal Naš glas, published by the hotel and tourist company "Riviera" in Poreč from 1969 to 1982, and attempts to compare them to the contemporary normatively acceptable and orthographical solutions.
