Abstract
On June 25th, 1991 the Republic of Croatia was proclaimed an independent State, and ceased to be part of Yugoslavia within which had existed for over seventy years, after 1938 having the statue of a federal unit. The new State was in due course recognized by other members of the international community and accepted into full membership of the United Nations. This decision created a new situation where many problems that were high on the agenda of Croatian politics for a century and a half became almost obsolete, and others of which few had thought assumed the utmost urgency.
The Croatian Academy of Sciences and Arts elected a committee from among its members to analyse the new situation and try to identify the objective factor defining both the possibilities and limitations facing the country and its people, and giving some thought to the main immediate problems in the various fields of activity. Towards the end of 1992 the committee submitted a paper under the above title which was widely discussed within the Academy and then published in book formas an Academy edition.
