Starčević i Kvaternik – Spoznaje i nadahnuća
Starčević and Kvaternik – Insights and Inspirations

Summary/Abstract: This is the first chapter of Mirjana Gross’s book entitled Izvorno pravaštvo – ideologija, agitacija, pokret (Genuine Party-of-Rights spirit – ideology, canvassing, movement), which is to be published this year. Starčević’s and Kvaternik’s ideology, revolving around the central rallying cry for an independent Croatian state, is a sort of a combination of liberalism (in Starčević’s liberal democracy) and nationalism i.e. linking the influence of certain European thinkers and ideologues, from the antiquity to the mid-19th century, with the Croatian tradition and socio-political circumstances. This chapter briefly outlines those European political doctrines that inspired the Party-of-Right ideologues and that, partly adopted and interpreted in line with the Croatian national-integrational ideology, became part of their teaching.
