State Ideology in Serbia and the Second World War (Research Brief)

in
Description: 

One of the stranger symptoms of the nationalist resurgence in Serbia since the fall of Yugoslavia has been the creeping rehabilitation of domestic collaborators with the Nazis. By focusing on the institution of the Serbian political police, which led the battle with communism before the war and continued its work undisturbed under the occupation, this project suggests that, despite their condominium with the Nazis, the collaborationist milieu was essentially espousing what are still the basic tenets of Serbian nationalism, and as such remain ideologically closer to the contemporary political mainstream than the communist and socialist ideals of the anti-fascist resistance.

One of the stranger symptoms of the nationalist resurgence in Serbia since the fall of Yugoslavia has been the creeping rehabilitation of domestic collaborators with the Nazis.
