    Intégration européenne et mémoire de la guerre en Croatie
    in Revue de l'Union européenne/Revue du Marché Commun et de l'Union européenne , n. 580, juillet-août ,  2014 ,  406-413
    Croatia's European Union membership on July 1, 2013 is the result of a particularly lengthy integration process, due to its recent war past. The former Yugoslavia war (1991- 1995) left deep marks in the Croatian society and the area, and membership negotiations focused, inter alia, in addi-tion to the implementation of the community gains, on the consequences of that war: cooperation with the Yugoslavia International Criminal Court, minority status and regional reconciliation. Yet such political conditionality was not well accepted locally. Because Croatia claims a deeply European identity, as opposed to its Balkan neighbours, then the specific clauses of its integration caused incomprehension locally, especially when they conflicted with the collective memories of the war.
