The Great Powers and the country's intellectual and political elites believed that a coherent identity could be formed in which the different South Slav groups in the state could identify with a single Balkan Yugoslav identity. Pieter Troch draws on previously unpublished sources from the domain of education to show how the state's nationalities policy initially allowed for a flexible and inclusive Yugoslav nationhood, and how that system was slowly replaced with a more domineering and rigid 'top-down' nationalism during the dictatorship of King Alexander I - who banned political parties and coded a strongly politicised Yugoslav national identity. As Yugoslav society became increasingly split between the 'pro-Yugoslav' central regime and 'anti-Yugoslav' opposition, the seeds were sown for the failure of the Yugoslav idea. Nationalism and Yugoslavia provides a valuable new insight into the complexities of pre-war Yugoslavia."--Bloomsbury Publishing. 606 $aEducation$xPolitical aspects$zYugoslavia$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aNationalism$zYugoslavia$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aEuropean history$2BIC 607 $aYugoslavia$xHistory$y1918-1945 615 0$aEducation$xPolitical aspects$xHistory 615 0$aNationalism$xHistory 615 7$aEuropean history. 676 $a949.7021 700 $aTroch$b Pieter$01065956 801 0$bUtOrBLW 801 1$bUtOrBLW 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910511339803321 996 $aNationalism and Yugoslavia$92548353 997 $aUNINA
