'''Arkzin''' was a periodical published in [[Zagreb]], Croatia, from 1991 to 1998. It began as a political fanzine and later on the editorial board widened the scope and included international members and topics. ''Arkzin'' gradually changed to a hybrid magazine in which politics, culture, theory and art met, crossed and overlapped. [http://www.nettime.org/Lists-Archives/nettime-l-0807/msg00024.html].
  
"Arkzin as a newspaper has established itself as a major forum of independent, alternative, critical information and debate. Arkzin not simply opposition newspaper, but insists on analysis of ideology and examines the role of the media, of the intellectuals and various marginalized youth subcultures!" [http://arkzin.net/bastard/bastard.htm]

Its predecessors include the youth magazines ''[[Polet]]'' and ''[[Studentski list]]''.
  
It was the first on-line publication in [[Croatia]] (designed by Blazenko Karesin Karo). The members of the editorial staff were, among others, [[Geert Lovink]] and [[Boris Buden]]. Arkzin, besides the political theory and practice and pop culture, regularly covered the subject of media culture and art. [[Igor Markovic]] has been the editor of the Cyber Theory column since 1996, presenting the translations of key texts of media theory. The magazine is not published at the moment.
