Abstract

Former Yugoslavia dissolved in the 1990s in brutal civil wars and ethnic violence. This was not the first instance of ethnic violence in former Yugoslavia. Similar events happened during the Second World War. This research theses examines how Croats and Serbs in the 1950s, living in the post-Second World War Socialist Yugoslavia, promoted stereotypes and engaged in "othering” the other ethnic group in Republic-sanctioned history textbooks.
