Summary/Abstract: This article provides an analysis of local politics in the Vukovar municipality, from the pluralization of the political party scene in Croatia that started in early 1990 to the breakdown of democratically elected local institutions in May 1991. This relatively short period was marked by strong political polarization of the two largest national communities in the municipality, the Croats and the Serbs. In the process, there were three parties that played key roles in the political arena and in national mobilization – the League of Communists of Croatia/the Party of Democratic Change (SKH/SDP), the Croatian Democratic Union (HDZ) and the Serb Democratic Party (SDS).
