The goal of this master thesis was to provide a genealogy of the state of emergency, in which Croatia found itself over the last two years (2020-2022). The genealogy is established through the theoretical framework of relevant authors such as Foucault, Deleuze, Illich, Agamben and Esposito. The combined theoretical framework explains how biopower and biopolitics, as well as the concepts related to them, help in understanding the governance of the corona virus pandemic in Croatia. The analysis of pandemic management in Croatia was carried out through discourse analysis. Through the discourse analysis, the author formed three interpretation units by extracting relevant discursive details, found in the texts: Period of state regulation and discipline, Period between state regulation and mass immunization and Period of the immunization of the population. Through a genealogical narrative by periods, the author connects the biopolitical theoretical framework with relevant events and decisions made by the National Civil Protection Authority. Through the analysis, the author observes the formation of ideological biopolitical positions that are in line with either Esposito's biopolitics (left-wing ideological position) or Agamben and Illich's biopolitics (liberal and right-wing positions), which gives an additional dimension to the analysis. The conclusion confirms the thesis about the usefulness of the biopolitical theoretical framework in the analysis of population management techniques during the corona virus pandemic.
