Sažetak
The paper first explains the concept of total Archives, its theoretical grounds and its practical application in the Canadian archival theory and practice. This theory and practice is presented as a basis for Canadian archival strategy, which was eventually applied in other countries. It is now positively valued in the world because of its importance for preservation of the integrity of the memory of a community and region. The main section of the paper focuses on the identification and explanation of those elements of archival practice in Croatia, which are important for the key issues of this paper. They show how long-term practical application of the same principles underlying the strategy of total Archives is recognisable and apparent in the Croatian archival theory and practice, which has not been particularly connected with the aforesaid Canadian theory. Even today, the positive arguments show the importance of continuing such a strategy in creation and implementation of educational, archival inspection and accession policy of the archives in Croatia. They also suggest that Croatian contemporary archival theory should inaugurate the concept of a comprehensive Archives (total Archives) that would define the Croatian strategy for archival work.
