New Times?: Towards a Political Economy of 'Civil Society' in Contemporary Croatia

Summary/Abstract: This article critiques orthodox approaches to civil society in Croatia adopting a political economy approach which is concerned with struggles over possession of different 'capitals'. The historical continuities and ruptures in the relationship between 'civil society' and 'nationalism', in the context of 'formal politics' and 'everyday life' are addressed. The article suggests that the impact of relationships between local, national and global discourses has been problematic and remains complex and contested.
