Sažetak
The development of Croatian Marxist philosophy, distinguished as the so-called critical, humanistic neo-Marxism of West European provenance and subsequently formed as an autonomous philosophy, praxis philosophy originated in the ‘50s as an opposition to the doctrinary dialectical and historical materialism. The conditions, causes and reasons for this change were many and complex - social, political, culturological and theoretical.
The developed tradition of heterodoxy and critical pluralistic thought on the Croatian leftist intellectual scene was started before the Second World War by Richtmann and Podhorsky's »Zagreb revisionism« of neo-positivistic provenance, and by the strong influence of Miroslav Krleža and his circle around the heterodoxical »Pečat« literary magazine.
On the other hand, it was this spiritual milieu of heterodoxy that made it possible to express the civil and pluralist theoretical interests and aspirations prevailing at the Philosophy Department of the Zagreb University.
Unlike the other philosophical centers of the then Yugoslavia, there were no established representatives of orthodox dialectic materialism in Zagreb, so that the young generation of Marxists won the exclusive right to control the development of the entire Croatian post-war philosophy. In theoretical and political conflicts, with the defenders of orthodox Marxism at first - mostly Serbian and Slovene philosophers - and with the Serbian neo-Marxists later on, the Croatian praxis-philosophers won Yugoslav and, later, worldwide recognition for their version of Marxism, convincingly establishing theoretical and culturological distinctiveness and autochthony of Croatian praxis philosophy.
