| Summary: | Compared to other European fascist regimes of World War II, the so-called Independent State of Croatia (Nezavisna Država Hrvatska, NDH) has suffered relative neglect in the English-language historiography, which until recently has considered the regime mostly in surveys of Yugoslav history or in reference works. Rory Yeomans's monograph on the Croatian fascist movement therefore is a welcome contribution., Yeomans structures his case study into six thematic, though overlapping, chapters. For example, his first chapter treats Ustasha students and the second deals with the related “cult of youth.” Chapter three examines male and female ideals in Ustasha ideology, marking a solid foray into gender analysis. The fourth chapter focuses on social justice and cultural values. |
