| Abstract |
Until the 1980s, nationalist sentiment was an elitist activity, severely repressed by the former Yugoslavian regime. However, beginning in 1985, national conflicts became more violent among the leading rival factions. Here, data obtained in surveys conducted in 1985 & 1989 in Croatia (N = 2,710 & 2,510 respondents, respectively) are used to examine social status and ethnonational affiliation, Communist party membership, and attitudes toward ethnonational affiliation of self-identified Croats, Serbs, Yugoslavs, and Muslims. It is suggested that while there has been a growth of populism and nationalism among Croatians, this reaction will probably not lead to armed conflict. |
