Vojskovođa Svetozar Boroević 1856-1920.

Milan Pojić

Svetozar Boroević, the most capable Austro-Hungarian military leader of the First World War, the only Croat who received the title of field marshal and was awarded the highest Austrian decorations, has been systematically hushed up in Croatian history.

"Ignorance of the basic facts about Svetozar Boroević, and even more the assessment of his person and works by the politicians of the subsequent state formations in which Croatia found itself, from monarchist to socialist Yugoslavia, turned the great military leader and Croatian patriot into a victim of stereotypes. The first, and a similar fate followed ban Josip Jelačić for a long time, is that Boroević is more of an imperial/Austro-Hungarian general and military leader, and less of a "Croatian/Yugoslav patriot". He cares more about the salvation of the Monarchy than about the interests of the Croatian homeland and the Croatian people. Another stereotype is that he was born into an Orthodox border family, so he is therefore a Serb. This stereotype, which was very successfully promoted by the Serbian Orthodox Church and accepted by the wider Croatian public, led to the fact that in the last biography of Boroević published in 1989 in the Croatian Biographical Lexicon, the Miroslav Krleža Lexicographic Institute in Zagreb considered it necessary to mention that Boroević was "of origin is from a Serbian border family". None of the above stereotypes is correct."
