IVANA RAŠIĆ BAKARIĆ
Sažetak
The article deals with a proposal of
a new administrative-territorial
division at regional selfgovernment
level in the Republic
of Croatia. The main aim of the paper is to
obtain optimal administrative -territorial
division of the country which would
provide optimal performance of public
tasks and responsibilities at the regional
level. The proposal is obtained through use
of multivariate statistical methods, and it is
based on a wide number of demographic,
economic, and public functions indicators
measured on 20 Croatian counties. The
main grouping criterion is importance and
representatives of identified public functions’
dimensions. As a result of the analysis, seven
new regions are created and they should
replace the existing 20 counties. Each of
the obtained regions contains counties with
similar characteristics and similar capacity
for public function completition.
