From the Publisher: Culture and Customs of Croatia offers an expert insider's look
at a Balkan nation which, for the first time since the 12th century, is free to draw
on its own traditions to determine its political, philosophical, and cultural identity.
Culture and Customs of Croatia provides a comprehensive overview of Croatian art and
culture with an emphasis on the historical factors contributing to contemporary Croatian
life. An in-depth exploration of the country's past lays the groundwork for a discussion
of a number of current issues, including progress towards EU membership, the expanding
role of the Catholic Church, preservation of the country's World Heritage Sites, the
growing popularity of the nation's Adriatic coastline as a beach vacation destination,
and the complex, still reverberating legacy of the former Yugoslavia
