Historical and "Non-Historical" Nations

Sažetak
The author presents Vico's and Hegel's theory that without a state there is no historical nation. According to Vico, world history is the process in which the rulers of the strongest and most ethical-politically virtous replace one another. For Hegel, history crystallizes into rational principles that become the basis for customs and the national advancement of the society. Certain nations become the carriers of world history as they take more seriously freedoms in the state. The author suggests that modern understanding of history should not forget Hegel's concept of practical wisdom. For this reason also, Croatia is not obliged to accept the international pragmatists' dictation, but Croatia's ties to the West must be based on principles of truth and justice.
