Abstract
This paper provides an overview of the main events of the Croatian spring
with an emphasis on Osijek and Slavonia, i.e., how the events from Zagreb influenced social conditions in Slavonia from the perspective of The Voice of Slavonia, as the only daily newspaper published in eastern Croatia in that period.
The introductory chapter briefly describes the history of the publication of The
Voice of Slavonia and its importance in presenting the event. Then, an attempt
is made to determine the period of activity of the Croatian Spring and to show
the events in Slavonia at that time. In the continuation of the paper, the events
that led to the collapse of the movement and the echoes of those events in the organizations of the League of Communists in Osijek and Slavonia are presented.
