THE REPORT OF THE STATE SECURITY POLICE INFORMER IVANČEVIĆ ABOUT CONDITIONS IN THE CROAT PEASANT PARTY DURING 1945-1952

U Hrvatskom državnom arhivu u Zagrebu u fondu Sekretarijata unutrašnjih poslova Socijalističke Republike Hrvatske, Službe državne sigurnosti i fondu Vojne komisije Centralnog komiteta Saveza komunista Hrvatske, dostupna su izvješća doušnika pod kodnim imenom Ivančević, koji je redovito izvješćivao Oznu/Udbu o stanju u vrhu Hrvatske seljačke stranke. Izvješća sadrže mnogobrojne podatke o prvacima stranke, njihovim međusobnim odnosima, a napose prenose razmišljanja Ivana Šubašića o političkom stanju. Autor upozorava na mnogobrojne činjenice koji potvrđuju pretpostavku da se iza kodnog imena Ivančević krije Ivan Andres, pripadnik najužeg vrha Hrvatske seljačke stranke i bivši ministar u vladi Kraljevine Jugoslavije.In the Croatian State Archive in Zagreb in the collections of the Secretariat of internal affairs of the Socialist Republic of Croatia, the State Security Services (SUP, SRH, SDS) and of the Military Commission of the Central Committee of the League of Communists of Croatia (CK SKH), one can access reports of an informer code-named Ivančević, who regularly reported to OZNA/UDBA, the security, information, and counter-intelligence service of the Yugoslavian communist government, about conditions in the leadership of the party. The reports contain much data on the leaders of the Croat Peasant Party (HSS), their mutual relations, and especially present the views of Ivan Šubašić concerning the political situation. The author also points to many facts which support the hypothesis that the true identity of the person behind the code name Ivančević was Ivan Andres, a member of the highest circles of the HSS and a former minister in the government of the Kingdom of Yugoslavia
