history of the Balkans and South-Eastern Europe, Croatia
and Serbia, ex Yugoslavia... history of South-Slavic peoples,
as well as individuals (not only historians). This was the
reason why the Friedrich Naumann Foundation, now in
cooperation with the Zagreb Researchers’ Society Dialogue,
Association for Promotion of Scientific Dialogue, decided to
republish some of the previous issues of the Dialogue of
Croatian and Serbian Historians, i.e. some of its parts, but
in a different form – organized according to individual
topics of plenary sessions and other papers presented at
the conferences that have all been previously published in
different issues of the conference publication Dialogue of
Croatian and Serbian Historians.
This is the first in the series of these publications, titled –
“Why Dialogue of Croatian and Serbian Historians?, and it
contains a selection of plenary lectures and papers, primarily
dealing with principal topics, from eight previous
conferences of the Dialogue of Croatian and Serbian Historians.
All papers, selected and edited by I. Graovac, in consultation
with the editorial team of the Dialogue series: ON
THE DIALOGUE (H.-G. Fleck, Federal Republic of Germany,
Dušan Gamser, Serbia and Monte Negro, and I. Graovac,
Republic of Croatia), and the editor-in-chief (Daniela
Krivda, secretary of the Dialogue Association), have already
been published in individual issues of former conference
publications:
- H.-G. Fleck, On the Dialogue of Croatian and Serbian
Historians: Critical Historical Science, Political Education
and Social Pluralism, Vol. 1, 11-20 (Introductory lecture at
the plenary session of the 1 st conference), and Vol. 6, 17-
25 (Introductory speech at the closing session of the 6 th
conference),
