Hrvatsko proljeće
The Croatian Spring is not only a chronicle of the events of 1971, but also a suggestive presentation of the political conditions of Yugoslavia in the post-war period. These testimonies come from the pen of a man who really tried to break the shackles of
Miko Tripalo particularly sheds light on the political processes from the mid-sixties to the events that led to the open split in SKH, and in the epilogue he reflects on the historical lessons from the whole event, relevant for the future of Croatia and Yugoslavia. The Croatian Spring shows how the KP became the actor in socialism that brought the system's controversies to the limits of absurdity, and to the gap between ideals, norms and reality itself, and how real contradictions became the germ of its own downfall. Through Tripalo's analysis of government and power relations, through expulsions and sufferings, we get to know directly the power of dogmatism, the orchestration of the press, the police and the army. The Croatian Spring reveals the true nature of the movement in 1971, its evolutionary and not revolutionary character, its pluralistic and not monistic organization.
