Summary/Abstract: In this article, the author presents the historical basis of Rightist ideology and its development, and analyses the changes and characteristics of Rightist ideology in various periods. Noting the basic characteristics of Rightism, the author argues that Rightism in Croatian political history can be studied through four paradigms: original Rightism and modern Rightism within the frame of the Habsburg / Austro-Hungarian Monarchy, Rightism adapted to the new monarchist framework within the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes / Yugoslavia with elements of republicanism until the ban on political party activity in 1929, and recent Rightism in the Republic of Croatia that is active within the frame of the democratic national party-political system and invokes the historical tradition of the original Rightist ideology.
