Igor Graovac - Centar za politološka istraživanja

Sažetak
Andrej Mitrović 81
Iako govorim na temelju iskustava zemlje koja se nalazi u epicentru
potresa, u kojoj i sâm živim, čini mi se da opažanja o duhovnim prilikama
vremena, koja ću ovdje ukratko i sažeto opisati, imaju širu
aktualnost u prostoru bivše druge Jugoslavije tijekom posljednje velike
krize.
Naglašavam, pritom, dvije skupine povijesnih tvrdnji: 1. onu da smo
mi oni koji stvaraju povijest, a da su oni drugi toliko loši da ne pripadaju
ni u kakvu povijest, i 2. da smo mi jedan od najstarijih naroda,
izabrani autohtoni narod na području u kojemu sada živimo, a istodobno
potječemo i sa područja najstarijih kultura: iz Mezopotamije i
Perzije te s Kavkaza!
Riječ je, dakle, o antimitu, koji dovodi do prevlasti nerazuma, a istodobno
i do neprijateljstva spram moderne civilizacije.
Summary
Although I am speaking from the experience of a country, which lies in
the epicentre of turbulence, in which I live myself, it seems to me that
the observations on the mental climate of the time, which I will briefly
sum up here, have had wider topicality on the territory of the former
Yugoslavia during the latest big crisis.
I will point out two groups of historical statements: 1/ the one, that
we are those who create history, and that the other ones are so bad
that they do not belong to any history; 2/ that we are one of the
oldest nations, the chosen, indigenous nation in the area where we
now live, and at the same time, our origins lie in the area, which the
oldest cultures originated from: Mesopotamia, Persia and Caucasus!
This is about an anti-myth, which brings about the predominance of
irrationality, and also animosity towards the modern civilization at the
same time.
Zusammenfassung
Obwohl ich auf Grund von Erfahrungen eines sich im Epizentrum von
Erschütterungen befindenden Landes spreche, wo ich selbst lebe,
