What's in a name in a war
Jurajda, Štěpán ; Kovač, Dejan
We propose a novel empirical strategy for identifying and studying nationalism using name choices. We Örst show that having been given a Örst name that is synonymous with the leader(s) of the fascist Croatian state during World War II predicts volunteering for army service in the 1991-1995 Croatian war of independence and dying during the conáict. Next, we use the universe of Croatian birth certiÖcates and the information about nationalism conveyed by Örst names to contrast the evolution of nationalism and its intergenerational transmission across locations a§ected by extreme war-related experiences. Our evidence suggests that in ex-Yugoslav Croatia, nationalism was on a continuous rise starting in the 1970s, that its rise was curbed in areas where concentration camps were located during WWII, and that nationalist fathers consider the nationalism-transmission trade-o§ between within-family and society-wide transmission channels suggested by Bisin and Verdier (2001).
