More than 35 years had passed since the book Smrtni grijesi feminizma (Mortal Sins of Feminism) was published in former Yugoslavia in 1984. This first collection of feminist articles and essays in the former communist world was just reprinted by Fraktura publishing house from Zaprešić, Croatia. The new edition has also a selection of the later texts, published between 1984 and 2019, as well as the introduction by Zsofia Lorand, feminist reasercher and author of the book The Feminist Challenge to the Socialist State in Yugoslavia (translated to Croatian and published by Fraktura by the title Feministički izazov socijalističkoj državi u Jugoslaviji).
Both books were promoted on the festival Femisim is for all in Zagreb on the occasion of March 8th, the International Women’s Day.
All events can be seen online (Croatian only!) Here are links to the festival:
