1991年6月，克罗地亚克拉伊纳地区塞族人和克族人之间爆发了全面暴力。南斯拉夫国民军在战斗中发挥了重要作用。尽管如此，邻近的塞族和克族之间的局部战争也达到了相当大的比例。虽然几个月前克拉伊纳和斯拉沃尼亚混合社区的塞尔维亚人和克罗地亚人还没有如此分裂，但他们拿起武器互相攻击。在暴力爆发之前，该区域的大多数塞族人和克族人都知道战争是不必要的，而且代价太高。然而，在几个月内，塞族-克族的种族两极分化出现并达到全面。许多人之前曾拒绝双方少数极端分子的呼吁，但最终选择了暴力。支持种族暴力的意见迅速同质化，这在双方都大规模发生。
FULL-SCALE VIOLENCE erupted between the Serbs and Croats in the Krajina region of Croatia in June 1991. The Yugoslav National Army played an important role in the fighting. Nonetheless, local warfare between neighboring Serb and Croat groups reached very significant proportions, too. Although the Serbs and Croats in the mixed communities of Krajina and Slavonia were not so divided only months earlier, they took up arms against one another. Prior to the eruption of violence, most Serbs and Croats in the region knew that war was unnecessary and would be too costly. In a few months, however, Serb-Croat ethnic polarization emerged and reached full scale. Many people, who had previously resisted the appeals of a minority of extremists on both sides, finally opted for violence. A rapid homogenization of opinion in favor of ethnic violence occurred on a large scale on both sides.
