Summary
Antun Vujić: Croatia and the Left. A contribution to the social democratic point of view
Vujić's work is truly unique in Croatian bibliography in its content, scope and manner - analytical, chronological and memoir... The author's understanding of certain moments of the Croatian left leads to a fateful range: 'The Croatian left was perhaps less Croatian than it should have been, but it was more Croatian than it should have been'. - Josip Šentija, publicist
In Vujić's reflection on the history of the left in monarchical Yugoslavia, self-governance and the events of 1971 in communist Yugoslavia from the point of view of modernized social democratic thought, one feels the coupling of written and living spoken words, one feels the style in which the experience of sometimes calm analysis and argumentation, and sometimes lively persuasion, engagement and strong emotionality comes to the fore. - Zvonko Lerotić, political scientist (from the review)
Antun Vujić's book is extremely useful, especially in its historical part. The segment about the Croatian Spring is particularly impressive. - Ivo Banac, historian
