He later announced his candidacy for the council assembly at the 2013 Split local elections. He received 1.97% of the popular vote.

Markovina is a very active writer. His first book from 2014, Between red and black, is one of the first historical books in Croatia which focuses on the effects and disasters of the Croatian right wing government in Split and Mostar during the 1990s. His third book, History of the defeated, is focused on the devastation of Yugoslavian legacy in Croatia.

He is politically engaged in his hometown of Mostar in Bosnia and Herzegovina. He criticizes the Croat administration in Mostar for dividing the city into 2 parts and for creating a nationalistic rhetoric which promotes hate between Croats and Bosniaks.
