[edit] Yugoslav Muslim Organization
WRT Jugoslovenska Muslimanska Organizacija (hope that sensible discussion is still possible on ex-Yu wiki pages). Yeah, it's name suggested that it was a party of Yugoslav Muslims. However it was really a national and religious party of the nation presently known as Bosniaks. Other predominantly Muslim nations (Albanians, Turks) had their own party, Cemiyet. All JMO leaders were from Bosnia. If a majority of editors think that this is not sufficient to link to the Bosniaks article, than I will withdraw. --Vedran 17:31, 6 Dec 2003 (UTC)
[edit] stubbiness
The article concentrates a lot on what are daily-political issues today, and makes no mention of e.g. what the Communist system brought (social security and relatively low crime rate, not just lack of free speech and investment opportunities), how many national parks and various tourist resorts were organized and the progress of industrialization, how the middle class appeared, how Zagreb became the largest industrial center of the country and the islands became depopulated, and all the other mundane stuff... --Joy [shallot] 00:35, 19 Aug 2004 (UTC)
[edit] What?
There's no doubt that the JMO was nationalistic in nature. But I fail to see what it has to do with this particular article.
This article encompasses politics, economy, demography, disintegration...these are all important issues that came with Croatia being in the Second Yugoslavia. It is my fault that I did not include less important "mundane" subjects. I will revise this article to include it.
[edit] rewrite
User:Vincit omnia veritas basically rewrote the article on 2006-1-13, and it needs to be checked for NPOV. I only skimmed it for now, and it doesn't look good. --Joy [shallot] 22:26, 8 April 2006 (UTC)
Agreed. Article is fairly POV.Armandtanzarian 10:02, 20 June 2006 (UTC)
- Yes. I read the new version and it was written completely from the POV that Croats were subdued and dominated by Serbs throughout the second Yugoslavia, which is not even the mainstream view in Croatia anymore. This is a common technique - presenting internal political conflicts (in this case between Croatian communists and nationalists) as national struggle in which their side is "the nation", and the other is "traitors".
- I failed to find anything that can be made useful without major work, so I reverted to the January version. If somebody can find some useful content in [1], by all means, go ahead :) Zocky | picture popups 11:53, 26 June 2006 (UTC)
