- „ЈУГОСЛАВИКА“ - ПРОШЛОСТ И САДАШЊОСТ - ПОЛЕМИКЕ О ИСТОРИЈИ У ДРУГОМ ИЗДАЊУ „ЕНЦИКЛОПЕДИЈЕ ЈУГОСЛАВИЈЕ“ 1981-1989
- Scientific historiography did not manage to crucially influence the creation of historical conscience as far as the processing of themes on past in the second edition of Encyclopedia of Yugoslavia are concerned. Reality of Yugoslavia was contradictory and full of conflicts of various types in which even historians participated, each in their own way, sometimes even without being aware of it. The governing establishment feared the revealing of the past because it could spoil previous historical picture, especially the one that had nothing to do with the Second World War and state-political organization of SFRY. In addition to this, partisan generation was still very present in the public scene. Thus for them every reexamination of history was the conviction of their gained rights and casting of an unjust shadow on their own past. While Serbian historiography showed a great level of disunity, disharmony and hiding behind the principles of non-interference in political and ideological clashes in Yugoslavia of that time, by which it did support one concept, Croatian Marxist historiography was consistently defending the views of its Establishment, slowly preparing the field for overcoming the rigid national approach. The clashes between Serbia and Croatia in historiography showed two completely different concepts in the interpretation of the common past, two separate currents, as if these were two different histories.
