Bleiburške žrtve na stranicama 'Hrvatske revije'
The victims of Bleiburg in pages of the journal Hrvatska revija

Summary/Abstract: In this article, based exclusively on writings in the emigrant journal Hrvatska revija in the time period from 1951 to 1990, the author tries to present how this journal handled the problem of the victims of Bleiburg. There are two main problems regarding these victims which this article focuses on: the question of responsibility and the question of the presumed number of victims. No specific answer for either of these is given in the journal. Hrvatska revija gives various versions from various authors from different backgrounds who often disagree on the main issues. In this manner, responsibility for the slaughter of soldiers of the Independent State of Croatia’s army and its civilians is shifted from the government of this State to Tito’s partisans and the English, or vice versa. The number of victims was never firmly established either: it varied from tens of thousands to a million.
