Early life and education

[edit]

Born in Benkovac, PR Croatia, FPR Yugoslavia, Atlagić finished primary school and grammar school in hometown. He later graduated from the Faculty of Philology at the University of Zadar. At the Faculty of Philosophy of the university in Zadar, Atlagić had received his PhD in Heraldry, studying heraldic elements in Medieval Croatia.

Activism and politics

[edit]

In the early 1990s, he has joined the Serb nationalist movement in Croatia, seeking to separate from Croatia, after country proclaimed independence from SFRJ. In 1991, he participated pan-Serbian meeting of the SAO Kninska Krajina in Knin as one of the speakers.[1] As a member of ultra-nationalist the "Serbian Radical Party for Republic of Srpska Krajina" (SRS for RSK) he was elected MP in the Parliament of the Republic of Serbian Krajina, and in 1994 elected its vice-president after the Serbian Radical Party dominated parliamentary majority was constituted. The government fell in late 1994, after which Atlagic resigned from the position of Deputy Speaker.

In 1995, Atlagić was Minister without portfolio in the last RSK government, under Milan Babić.[1] After Operation Storm, he had been one of the ministers from 1995 to 2006 by the SRS-promoted Government of the RSK in Exile. In 2007, the SRS had crumbled and Marko Atlagić had supported the Tomislav Nikolić fraction as opposed to Vojislav Šešelj, becoming a member of the new Serbian Progressive Party's presidency and assigned for Refugee and IDP problems.[1]

In 2006, Atlagić testified at the trial of Slobodan Milošević.[1]
