Jovan Rašković ( Serbian Јован Рашковић ; born July 5, 1929 in Knin , Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes ; † July 28, 1992 in Belgrade , Yugoslavia ) was a Yugoslav psychiatrist and politician and a member of the Serbian Academy of Sciences and Arts (SANU ). He was the founder of the Serbian Democratic Party (in Croatia) in July 1990.

He was one of the founders of the Research Institute of Neurophysiology in Ljubljana. He was a professor in Zagreb and Ljubljana and a visiting professor at various European universities.

Raskovic specialized in group psychology and paranoia and is considered the mentor of the Bosnian Serb leader Radovan Karadžić .

In his 1990 book "Luda ​​zemlja" ("Crazy Country"), Raskovic spread hatred and prejudice against Croatians and Bosnian Muslims. Raskovic described the Bosnian Muslims as being fixed in their "anal phase" and Croatians as "low castrati". Because of these characteristics, the Serbs - because of a superior personality - should exercise authority and leadership and rule over the people of Yugoslavia.
