Sažetak
The case study of Novi Vinodolski is a part of a larger project “Actors of Social Changes in Space”. The text begins with a theoretical-hypothetical background against which the case is set in a broad global and a more local context. On the one hand Novi Vinodolski
is a specific place with its numerous characteristics, on the other hand it fits in with global processes. In short, it is best described as “glocal”.
The text is about the actors of social changes in space and how they affect the town development. The history of town and its surroundings is important for the situation today. Equally important is the “New Novi”, the social context of transition and new capitalism and the role of new actors (private capital, local political government, experts with different opinions and civil sector actors). The qualitative type of research is used – case study with semi-structured interviews, observation participation method, inevitable analysis of literature, data, studies, plans etc. The research results confirm the assumption that Novi Vinodolski is the town of uncertain future, at the crossroads of development, stagnation or decline.This future depends on both exterior and interior factors. Local actors and their activities are more important, at least at the local level.
