Sažetak

Taking Zagreb, center of Central Croatia, as an example, the article suggests and illustrates the necessity for underlining the difference between »absolute« and »relative« importance of a certain town, as being a center of further and closer surroundings. The term »absolute importance« refers to the actual number of inhabitants in the surrounding areas who satisfy some of their needs in the center, and the term »relative importance« refers to that group of inhabitants in the surroundings who have, and who satisfy a certain need somewhere, satisfying it, in fact, just in the center.
Part of the results received by the research »Relationship Between Zagreb and Surrounding Areas« has served the author as a basic in questioning the fulfillment of 11 different needs, and he shows that Zagreb has the greatest absolute importance as a center for the supply of permanent consumer goods as well as a health center, but at the same time Zagreb has the greatest relative importance as a cultural center and a place for visiting more important sport shows. Mentioning that the difference between the absolute and relative importance of a center can be interpreted as an indicator of decentralization of institutions that serve for the fulfillment of certain needs, the author points at the dilemma whether (and which) institutions should be gathered in the center according to the plan, and whether (and which) ones should be approached to the potential beneficiaries of their services.
