Summary/Abstract: The paper discusses the reception of Dinko Tomašić's political sociology before and after the Second World War, mainly in Croatia. Four phases are emphasized here. The first phase is marked by the prevalence of critical discourse, whether a rightwing (during the second half ofthe 30s) or a leftwing one (in the SOs). The latter induced a period of almost complete oblivion during the 60s and 70s. The third phase (the aOs) is characterized by the appearance of pioneering essays dealing exclusively with Tomašić's prewar writtings. The big turn took place at the beginning of th 90s when we witnessed the first comprehensive biographical studies, as well as the first applications of Tomašić's models to the causes of war in former Yugoslavia.
