The resurgence of nationalism in Yugoslavia is a particularly fascinating subject for the examination of secret or hidden histories, for several reasons. The initial development of nationalist political strategies in the late 1980s was a product of intellectuals and politicians who operated within the still-hegemonic communist parties of the various republics, particularly Slovenia and Serbia. With the weakening of the established paradigm of self-management socialism, the turn to nationalism by Yugoslavia’s political elites is not surprising. In socialist Yugoslavia, one of the founding myths of the state was the moral superiority of the communists and their Partisan army to the Croatian fascists, or Ustasa and the Serbian royalists, or Cetniks during World War Two. The numbers of Serbian dead and their importance as indicators of a distinctly Croatian genocide, however, have now become matters of great controversy in Yugoslavia. Keywords:croatian genocide; nationalism; post-communist yugoslavia; Serbia; Slovenia; Ustasa
