| Popis: | Based on the primary documentary sources of the Croatian State Archives (CSA), the Fonds of the Foreign Ministry of the Independent State of Croatia (ISC) and the Croatian Information Bureau “Croatia”, as well as information found in daily and periodical newspapers printed from late 1944 to May 1945, the author analyzes the content of the ISC press regarding foreign and domestic politics and war issues. Comparing political orders and dictations to newspaper editors with a large number of articles and the actual situation at the European battlefronts of that time, the author concludes that Ustasha propaganda, supported by the Third Reich, significantly influenced the formation of public opinion in the ISC at the end of World War II. From the sources available, it is now obvious that the majority of the ISC population was fully aware that the Third Reich, as well as its satellite states, had lost the war but the atmosphere which was deliberately created by the Ustasha authorities in the ISC caused a mass exodus in early May 1945 nevertheless. Na temelju izvorne građe fondova Ministarstva vanjski poslova Nezavisne Države Hrvatske (NDH) i Hrvatskog dojavnog ureda „Croatia“ kao i novinske građe dnevnih i periodičnih izdanja s kraja 1944 i prvih pet mjeseci 1945., autor analizira sadržaj vanjskopolitičkih, unutrašnjopolitičkih i ratnih tema u tisku NDH. Povezujući naputke ustaških vlasti s većim brojem članaka u novinama i stvarnu situaciju na brojnim europski bojištima, autor zaključuje kako je ustaška promidžba, potpomognuta njemačkom imala značajan utjecaj na formiranje javnog mnijenja u NDH na kraju Drugog svjetskog rata. Iz autoru dostupne građe razvidno je da je većini građana NDH bilo jasno kako je Treći Reich, a onda i njeni sateliti, izgubio rat, no flagrantno stvarana atmosfera straha od komunističke odmazde doprinijela je masovnom egzodusu hrvatskih građana u svibnju 1945. |
