Ante Gotovina

Croatian general

Ante Gotovina belongs to the record of public life as a figure whose work outlasted the moment that produced it.

The record lists Ante Gotovina as Croatian general.

Ante Gotovina was born at Tkon in 1955. His recorded nationality is Croatia.

The twentieth century made work collective, expensive and political, with consequences that reached well beyond the people doing it.

The record gives his occupations as military officer and military personnel.

The work that carried his reputation furthest concerned primary role in the 1995 Operation Storm. Power is judged twice: once by contemporaries who felt it, and again by historians who did not.

That the work was done from Croatia matters. Opportunity has never been evenly distributed, and where a person is based shapes which doors open and whose work gets seen.

Ante Gotovina is still at work, and the final assessment has not been made - the ordinary condition of a living career.
