Abstract

Ovim se radom nastojalo dokazati postojanje političkog mita o Domovinskom ratu sastavljenog od službene interpretacije rata kodificirane u Deklaraciji o Domovinskom ratu te narativa o težnji za vlastitom hrvatskom državom. Da bi se politički mit mogao operacionalizirati, kao jedinica analize odabran je mitologem, shvaćen kao bazična jezgra mita koja se prilagođava aktualnim potrebama te se njegova sustavna prisutnost nastojala dokazati na trima primjerima iz razdoblja 2000.-2020. godine. Riječ je o Deklaraciji o Domovinskom ratu, tzv. udžbeničkoj polemici koja je nastala 2008. godine zbog neslaganja oko načina prikaza razdoblja devedesetih u nastavi povijesti te djelovanju hrvatskih veterana, tj. branitelja, ponajviše analizirajući njihovo prosvjedno djelovanje. Da bi to bilo moguće, korištena je kritička analiza diskursa, specif ično historijsko-diskurzivni pristup koji naglasak stavlja na povijesni, odnosno društvenopolitički kontekst u kojem diskurs, putem kojeg se mitologem o ratu manifestira, nastaje.

Abstract (english)

This paper has tried to prove the existence of a political myth about the Homeland War consisting of the official interpretation of the war codified in the Declaration on the Homeland War and the narrative about the tendency for a sovereign Croatian state. In order to operationalize the political myth, mythologem is selected as the unit of analysis, understood as the basic core of a myth which is then adapted in line with current needs, and three cases from the period 2000-2020 have been selected to prove its systematic presence. Those cases being the Declaration on the Homeland War, the so-called textbook controversy originated in 2008 from disagreements over the depiction of the 1990s period in school history lessons, and the activity of Croatian war veterans, i.e. branitelji, predominantly the analysis of their protest actions.This was enabled by the use of critical discourse analysis, more specifically the discourse-historical approach which emphasizes the historical, i.e. sociopolitical context among which discourse, through which the war mythologem is manifested, forms.
