ABSTRACT
The article revolves around notions of feminism and populism in the contemporary Croatian context. It analyses the domestic celebrity feminism initiative and the populist discourse some Croatian political figures employ. The structural similarity of the two public examples of rhetoric mentioned is correlated with the testimonial discourse of gender violence survivors. The comparative interpretation results in critical notions regarding the dubious collaboration between the populist feminist initiative and the political establishment, with emphases on domestic populist political actors.
