The Croatian 1996/97 MOST project Multiculturalism and Post-communism,
Tradition and Democratic Processes was carried out
as a four-fold study comprising the following sub-projects:
1. Historical Framework for the breakdown of communism:
problems of heritage in the process of re-establishment of democratic
societies analyses changes in the Croatian society within
the new historical and social framework of post-communism. One
of the ongoing activities was a joint research, Social Transformations
in Post-Communism and the Problem of Multiculturalism which
aimed at the comparative analysis of changes in the interpretation
of multiculturalism and was carried out in co-operation with the
Institute for Post-Communist Society, Kiev, Ukraine. The outcome
of the joint project was a meeting of experts from both sides
organized in Kiev in June 1996 (project director: Mr Mislav Kukoc,
Institute for Applied Social Research, Zagreb).

the structure of the recently emerging multicultural and multi-ethnic
societies and states that affect all areas of social and individual
activities: governance, politics, economy, religion, education,
culture, etc. (project director: Ms Nada Svob-Dokic, Institute
for International Relations, Zagreb).
3. Intercultural orientations and relations in education,
media and business analyses relevance of different school
