Declining or Waning
- Military History:

There seems to be a diminishing emphasis on traditional political history, particularly narratives centered around political figures and events, as the journal increasingly shifts towards social and cultural perspectives. - Colonial and Post-Colonial Studies:
The exploration of colonial and post-colonial themes appears to be less frequent, possibly due to the journal's focus on localized Croatian narratives rather than broader global contexts. - Economic History:

Environmental history, though an emerging field in many areas, has not been a strong focus in recent publications, indicating a potential area of neglect in the journal's thematic scope.
