Abstract

Relying on the original documents from the Split State Archives, this paper offers a brief description of postwar Communist repression, anticommunist resistance and persecution of clergy in Dubrovnik area. Laying stress upon the case of Fr. Dominik Barač, a Dominican priest who was sentenced to be shot in 1945 and executed in Trogir on 17 November that year, the author focuses on the activities of the Konavle Crusaders led by the former HSS member Pero Bakić and their contacts with Barač that led to his formal sentence.
