Ivan CRKVENČIĆ
Sažetak
This work is the continuation of the article published in this Journal
no. 69-70 under the title "The Posavina Border Region of Croatia
and Bosnia-Herzegovina: Development up to 1918 (with special
reference to changes in ethnic composition)". This mentioned article
describes the natural features of the region, its importance in
the past, the disappearance of the unified Croatian ethnic territory
by the sixteenth century and subsequent development, particularly
with a view to the region's importance as a border zone and
the changes to its ethnic structure. This work presents the more
recent development of the region by providing an overview of the
political circumstances and changes to its ethnic structure under
the Kingdom of Yugoslavia and under the Socialist Federal Republic
of Yugoslavia. Particular attention is dedicated to political
changes which were reflected in changes to the region's ethnic
structure at the end of the twentieth century, primarily due to the
ethnic cleansing of Croats and Muslims and the political changes
which occurred in Bosnia-Herzegovina after the signing of the
Dayton Accords.
