Controversy

Its social role in the time of the so-called " Independent State of Croatia " has been assessed differently in the literature. On one hand, Alojzije Mišić to the in wartime an opponent Ustasha have been -state. In contrast, a circular from May 9, 1941 has been preserved in which it endorses the proclamation of the fascist regime and describes the leader of the Croatian fascists in the "Independent State of Croatia", Ante Pavelić , as an "exemplary Catholic".
