Abstract

IN ENGLISH: The article discusses the main obstacles encountered in the course of the earliest stages of supranational identity – building that took place in Socialist Yugoslavia in the 1950s, and in the European Community in the 1980s. Due to World War II legacy, both supranational identities were predominantly built on a promise of peace and prosperity that exclusively related the emotional attachment of citizens to the economic and political success of the supranational polities. Since both polities originally brought fulfillment of (single) national goals to their constituencies, any cultural component of supranational identities could be successfully challenged by the narratives on hegemony of supranational center over national constituencies. --------------- IN CROATIAN: U članku se raspravlja o glavnim preprekama najranije faze izgradnje nadnacionalnog identiteta u socijalističkoj Jugoslaviji 1950-ih, te u Europskoj zajednici 1980-ih. Zbog naslijeđa Drugoga svjetskog rata, oba su nadnacionalna identiteta bila pretežno izgrađena na obećanju mira i prosperiteta, koje je pretežno vezivalo emocionalnu privrženost građana uz ekonomski i politički uspjeh nadnacionalnih poredaka. Budući da su obje zajednice donosile ispunjenje (pojedinačnih) nacionalnih ciljeva, svaka kulturna komponenta nadnacionalnih identiteta mogla se uspješno osporiti narativima o hegemoniji nadnacionalnog centra nad pojedinačnim nacijama.
