Hrvatski identitet is a new book published by Matrix Croatica, bringing the papers of eighteen Croatian authors familiar with these issues, dealing with various aspects of national identity - from its defining, crisis and preservation, to promotion and re-defining upon EU accession. In question is the most in-depth work of its kind published after Croatia's independence, which brings the results of scientific research, as well as the authors' reflections on Croatia's identity. Also symbolic is its moment of origin - the twentieth anniversary of Croatian independence, and before Croatia's full membership in the European Union, which will certainly contribute to raise interest in this book.
