Jadranska straža (journal)

Jadranska straža (lit. 'Adriatic Guard' or 'Adriatic Sentinel') was the official publication of the Jadranska straža organisation. The publication's full title was Jadranska straža – Glasnik udruženja Jadranska straža (lit. 'Adriatic Guard – Gazette of Adriatic Guard Association'), but it was commonly referred to using the abbreviated title. The first issue was published under the title Jadranska straža – Službeno ilustrovano glasilo Jadranske straže – Centrale u Splitu (lit. 'Adriatic Guard – Official Illustrated Gazette of the Adriatic Guard – Split Central Office').

The journal was published from 1923 until 1941 in Split, to promote strategic orientation of the Kingdom of Yugoslavia to the Adriatic Sea region. Jadranska straža published news, popular science, and literary texts on a variety of subjects. The journal employed rhetoric resembling the style of Italian fascist publications and promoted the country's official ideology of integral Yugoslavism. In its final years the publisher and the journal gradually shifted their focus from pan-Yugoslav to regional, Dalmatian and Croatian topics.
