Sažetak
On October 8, 1991, the Croatian Parliament adopted the Decision on the termination of all legal
relations on the basis of which the Republic of Croatia was a member state of the former Yugoslav
Federation and declared its full independence. This Decision should be studied in the context
of a broader, very specific and, in comparison with other examples, very special constitutional
process of establishing state independence, but also the process of its international recognition.
The specificity of the relationship between the Decision of October 8, 1991 and the Constitutional
Decision on the Sovereignty and Independence of the Republic of Croatia of June 25, 1991 has
preoccupied many legal theorists, historians and even politicians for almost 30 years. The authors of
the paper do not intend to give a definitive or compelling judgment on the issues presented. Rather,
they want to contribute to a better understanding of the views on this Decision and place it in the
historical framework. They present most of the previous legal and doctrinal views, the positions of
international and national jurisprudence, which, however, support the thesis that on October 8, 1991,
the Republic of Croatia received the entire content of subjectivity under international law, which
will be recognized at the beginning of 1992.
