Piers Mellor: So the political landscape is still characterized by governance of opportunistic postcommunist elites riding upon petty-nationalist sentiment?
Tom Sunic: Yes – I don’t know to what extent you yourself, and for that matter your distinguished readers and listeners, are familiar with the Balkans and with different inter-ethnic issues. I guess I don’t know where to start – we could probably go to the Berlin Congress of 1878, when this whole idea of bringing different nations, and different clients, came to a fore. But other than that, of course, as I mentioned earlier you have a very strong communist mindset – we are not talking about an ideology, but rather an anthropology. So, we could say that in terms of communism as an anthropology, it is still unfortunately very strong here in all aspects, in virtually all nooks and crannies of the Croatian society.
