| Summary: | Analysis and comparison of the content of eight published views of six prominent Croatian intellectuals (Stjepan Radić, N. Kovačević, Nikola Zvonimir Bjelovučić, Ivo Pilar, Ivo Frank and Alfons Hribar) and politicians of the first half of the 20th century on the geopolitical future of Central Europe will be presented in this article. Although they originated in significantly different sociopolitical circumstances, their emergence testifies of the continuity of reflection about the Croatian position within the Central European political and cultural space. Among these authors, during the Austro-Hungarian period, Radić advocated Austro-slavism, while Kovačević, Bjelovučić and Pilar advocated trialism. After the First World War, Frank politically tied the potential independent Croatian state to Hungary strengthened by anti-Trianon revisionism, while Hribar observed the Central European area through the possibilities of economic cooperation between the countries of the Little Entente. Also, it will be determined whether the presented geopolitical conceptions of Central Europe in the texts of Radić, Kovačević, Bjelovučić, Pilar, Frank and Hribar correspond to liberal political ideas and to what extent this compatibility is represented. In addition, it will be determined whether the presented geopolitical conceptions coincide with other political ideas and ideologies present in the first half of the 20th century in Europe. |
