From Popular Front to Political Radicalization: The Croatian Press and the Spanish Civil War, 1936–1939
This article examines the ideological debate over the Spanish Civil War in the Croatian print media, and the impact it had on the leading domestic issue, i.e. the 'Croatian question'. Although the war in Spain was debated across the Kingdom of Yugoslavia, especially in the more liberal press in Belgrade for example, the focus here will be on the impact in Croatia. The parallels between Spain and Croatia (the important role of the Catholic Church, the large peasant populations, the presence of 'national questions')meant that the events in the Iberian Peninsula resonated strongly among politically conscious Croats. Numerous domestic factors and the unstable international situation of the late 1930s contributed to the radicalization of the Croatian political scene, but the Spanish Civil War was arguably one of the major events that accelerated the polarization of the 'Croatian national movement' into left and right extremism. During this period the Communist Party of Yugoslavia attempted, and ultimately failed, to create a Popular Front in Croatia (and Yugoslavia more generally) modelled on the French and Spanish Popular Fronts.
