Magaš pays particular attention to the historical turning points at which a state seemingly marked for extinction managed to bounce back. She also observes that the ties that bound Croatia to other states for centuries have contributed to the state's vitality, with a complex web of Slav, Croat, Dalmatian, Slavonian, Serb, Jewish, Italian, Yugoslav and other identities emerging as part of an ongoing social and political dialogue, which at times has included open strife.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAUTHOR BIO:\u003cbr\u003eBranka Magaš is a historian, journalist and commentator on the former Yugoslavia.
