Abstract

IN ENGLISH: This article presents the efforts of the Islamic community in Sisak, Croatia, to achieve better social status and recognition in the local environment from the 1960s until to-day. By applying anthropological perspectives, we present the Islamic community’s long-lasting efforts of building a mosque, presenting their personal experience related to cultural identity and belonging. The aim is to present aspirations of the Islamic community during and after socialism focusing on inter-institutional communication and diverse integration strategies. We approach the Islamic community from an eth-nographic perspective, conducting interviews with community members and search-ing documents in archives. --------------- IN CROATIAN: Ovaj rad analizira nastojanja Islamske zajednice u Sisku, Hrvatska za postizanje boljeg društvenog statusa i vidljivosti u lokalnoj zajednici od 1960-ih do danas. Kroz antropološki pristup istražuju se dugotrajni napori Islamske zajednice u izgradnji džamije, iznoseći pritom osobna iskustva članova i njihov odnos prema kulturnom identitetu i nacionalnoj pripadnosti kroz povijest. Cilj je predstaviti stremljenja Islamske zajednice tijekom i nakon razdoblja socijalizma, analizirajući međuinstitucionalnu komunikaciju i raznolike strategije integracije. Islamskoj zajednici pristupamo iz etnografske perspektive, vodeći razgovore s njezinim članovima i analizirajući arhivsku građu.
