Sažetak

Imperial legacies have a twofold nature: they can be used for supporting ethnonational identification but also for emphasising locally based narratives of hybrid identities and multiple attachments. The main hypothesis is that this twofold nature of imperial legacies emerges in the context of a problematic relation between nationality and citizenship. The hypothesis is examined in the context of the activation of the discourses of imperial legacies at the local level – in Croatian Istria in the 1990s – when they were employed as a counter-narrative to social and cultural homogenization which was propagated by the Croatian government.
