Abstract

In this article the author examines the origins and process by which the Bunjevačko-šokačka Party merged with the Croat Peasant Party (Hrvatska Seljačka Stranka – HSS). The activity of the HSS in Bačka is analyzed within the scope of the role it played in opposing the denationalization of the Croats of Bačka (the Bunjevci and Šokci). The influence the Croat peasant movement had in Croatia was carried over to the Croats of Bačka, so that during these fateful years they became politically united and affirmed in their nationality.
