Title | THE CONTEMPORARY CROATIAN INTELLECTUAL DEBATE ON THE EUROPEAN UNION |
Summary | The aim of this thesis is to analyse the content of the Croatian intellectual debate on the European Union and on the process of Croatia’s accession to the EU. The main argument of this thesis is that even though since the beginning of the 1990s Croatian political elites have been declaring a certain desire for Croatia to join the EU, a nationalist and isolationist attitude has dominated both in political discourse and in the intellectual debate, prolonging in this way the accession to EU integration. In order to analyse the differences between Eurosceptic and Euro-optimistic authors I have used content analysis method, focusing on the works of a selection of politicians, scholars and journalists whose work reflects different positions in the debate. |
