Imperial Borders, Capitalist Orders, Socialist Disorders: On Social Perception of EU in Croatia
Throughout my three-year research of the social perception of European Union in Croatia, various understandings of national, regional, cultural and civilizational borders were crucial in the delineating of symbolic geography of the Balkan region, and, more broadly, the whole European continent. In this paper, I will focus on how those borders were drawn and erased, evoked and forgotten depending on the social and political context. While the study of balkanist discourse focused mostly on the opposition between Central Europe and the Balkans, or, more generally, East and West in the region, various social perspectives examined in this research reveal other modes of border-making and unmaking in the perception of EU and Europe in Croatia. While the intellectuals of statecraft, such are the appointed negotiators with the EU, adhered to the older notions of the country as Central Europe's "last outpost" before the Balkans, agricultural entrepreneurs were more interested in another, temporal division which separated the present, entrepreneurial and capitalist ways from the old, socialist ones. On the other hand, law students critiqued both of those binary divisions and proposed various mechanisms intended to destabilize the adopted regional and continental hierarchies. While examining several examples from my research, I will draw upon the understanding of borders as tidemarks which, as Green argues, intertwine space and historical time.
