IDEOLOGICAL TRENDS IN CROATIA FROM 1948 TO 1952

U radu se istražuje idejna scena u Hrvatskoj određena na prijelazu u peto desetljeće promjenama nastalim po sukobu s Informbiroom i prijeporima vezanim uz utjecaje duhovnih strujanja sa Zapada. Pritom se u kontekstu partijske države analizira položaj i uloga tradicionalnih nacionalnih institucija (Sveučilište, Matica hrvatska. Jugoslavenska akademija znanosti i umjetnosti), a djelomice osvjetljava i prinos hrvatskog emigrantskoga kruga okupljenog oko Hrvatske revije. Istraživanje je nastalo na temelju uvida u arhivske materijale, emigrantski tisak i raznovrsnu literaturu iz tog vremena.Despite general historical examination of the struggle of the Yugoslav Communist leadership with the Information Bureau, the ideological currents in Croatia directly connected with this issue have not been adequately and fully researched. This article points out the complexity of the ideological scene in Croatia; on the one hand, ideological changes in Croatia reflected the conflict in the Information Bureau; on the other hand, those changes were related to the individuality, internal structure, and tensions of Croatian cultural circles. The article therefore analyses the position and role of traditional national institutions such as Matica Hrvatska, the University of Zagreb, and the Yugoslav Academy of Science and Art and partly illuminates the role of the Croatian diaspora in Hrvatska revija. Although the so-called »harsh course« was pursued against alternative opinion, urban circles continued to influence cultural events in Croatia. The purpose of this paper is to examine the basis of the battles fought, especially in connection with cultural and artistic freedom
