Disentangling a complicated modernity: The case of post-transitional Croatia
The paper is a conceptually driven analysis of the data acquired by a 2018 representative survey carried out as part of the Croatian Science Foundation funded project on gender modernization (GENMOD - HRZZ 6010). The seemingly contradictory results are interpretatively disentangled by means of the application of a theory postulating a simultaneous evolvement of the "two modernities" (in Beck's sense of the term) in the transitional post-socialist Croatian society (Tomic-Koludrovic and Petric, 2007). The analysed attitudes (on the continuum tradition- modernity) are interpreted as due to the character of the modernization processes in Croatia during the socialist and post-socialist periods, which can be characterized by several terms (such as "unfinished", "multiple", "compressed", "uneven", "accelerated") used by different theorists to describe the unfolding of modernization in comparable cases. The specificities of the analysed case in the context of other Central and Eastern European post-socialist transitions are seen as due to the atypical character of the Yugoslav "self- managing socialism" (which Croatia was part of and which opened up relatively early to the market principles and Western cultural influences) and an objectively neo-colonial position at the "external" and then "internal" EU periphery at the time of the country's gradual integration into a globalized "second modernity" risk society. It is argued that the seemingly contradictory results are due to the "partial acquisition of modernization values" during both periods. The conclusion is that the sociological schemes of modernity postulated by theorists such as Beck and Giddens can still be productively used in the case at hand.
