Pogledi (Serbian Cyrillic: Погледи) was a Serbia-based magazine devoted to politics and history, published biweekly.[1] Pogledi became notable due to the fact that they were the first opposition magazine in communist Yugoslavia.[2]
In English, Pogledi translates to Viewpoints. In total, 268 issues were published.
History
In June 1982, Pogledi began as the University of Kragujevac student magazine. The first issue was about Josip Broz Tito. The magazine first made national headlines on 1 March 1989 when they were the first media outlet in Serbia to publish that US President Harry Truman awarded Draža Mihailović the Legion of Merit. In 1990, Pogledi became the most read magazine in the country with a circulation of 200,000. That same year Pogledi split from the university and became an independent publishing house.
