U potrazi za novim identitetom : naracije o hrvatskom identitetu u devedesetim godinama dvadesetoga stoljeća

Devedesete su godine dvadesetoga stoljeća u Hrvatskoj razdoblje važnih i dubokih promjena u kojem se zemlja ponovno vraća na diskurz o identitetu na individualnoj i kolektivnoj razini. Pokušaj stvaranja novoga identiteta, istodobno s promjenom prijašnjega poretka, povezan je sa stanjem kulturne traume tipične za takozvana granična područja u kojima se susreću različite kulture.

The profound cultural changes that took place in Croatia in the 1990s intensified identity discourse on an individual and a collective level. The attempt to construct a new identity in a crisis situation, following the fall of the previous system, was significantly affected by war shock and a general state of cultural trauma typical for cross-border spaces where diverse cultures clash. The problem of narrative is strictly connected with that of identity. “Narrative” is understood as epistemological structure – a process which is the subject of changes in time. No society can be described without narration it creates.
