Summary: Although Starcevic's philosophy of law represents a significant theory in the context of the philosophy of politics in the 19th century, it has received almost no reception. Commencing from the thesis that Starcevic's thought and definition of law and state, especially his explication of the idea of Croatian statehood, are a remarkable incentive for contemporary research into the purpose and significance of the human political community, this project particularly dealt with Starcevic's postulates in the context of the current realization of Croatian statehood.

Keywords: philosophy, law, state, nation, custom, morality, social morality, Croatian statehood, political rhetoric, ethics, science of life

Research goals: The goal of this project is the reconstruction and revaluation of the key system of concepts upon which Starcevic's conception of the philosophy of law and state is singularly grounded. The phenomena of social morality, law and state, their definitions, continuation, the phenomena of development and constitution, represent a constant preoccupation within Starcevic's philosophy. Analysing the origins Starcevic's politics of philosophy, this study compares classical Aristotelian and the Roman conception of state with modern theories, beginning with the thesis that in the philosophy of politics in the 19th century Starcevic offered a remarkable stimulus for conemporary research into the purpose and significance of the human political community. The aim of research also consists in preparing the publication of the works of Ante Starcevic
