Ante Pavelic was the leader of the fascist party of Croatia (the
Ustase), who, on Adolf Hitler's instruction, became the leader of
Croatia after the Nazi invasion of 1941. Pavelic was an extreme
Croatian nationalist who believed that the Serbian people were an
inferior race - he would preside over a genocide that ultimately
killed an estimated 390,000 Serbs during World War II. Croatia
under Ante Pavelic provides the full history of this period, with a
special focus on the United States' role in the post-war
settlement. Drawing on previously unpublished documents, Robert
McCormick argues that President Harry S. Truman's Cold War
priorities meant that Pavelic was never made to answer for his
crimes. Today, the Ustase remains difficult legacy within Croatian
society, partly as a result of Pavelic' political life in exile in
South America. This is a new account of US foreign policy towards
one of the Second World War's most brutal dictators and is an
essential contribution to Croatian war-time history.
