Abstract

The Croat question could not be resolved within the immutable system of Habsburg dualism, leading to a search for solutions that would unite the Habsburg South Slavs in a common front with Serbia and Russia. This New Course, which commenced in 1905, effected an realignment in South Slav politics, a temporary suspension of Croat-Serb conflict, and the emergence of the Croato-Serb Coalition, but did not contribute to any tangible changes within the Monarchy itself. That happened only as a result of the war in which the veterans of the New Course, by then émigrés in the Allied countries (the Yugoslav Committee), promoted their own vision of South Slavic unification against Serbia’s imperial aims.
