Abstract
The paper presents a conceptual framework for a research project
involving two villages, Jazavice and Ro`danik, the Sisa~ko-Moslava~
ka County declared as an area of special state concern because
they were occupied from 29 September 1991 to 1 May
1995, and all the Croatian population fled. In addition to human
casualties, both villages suffered immense material damage to
residential, farm and public buildings and to utility services. The
reconstruction of these villages should be approached as a greater
development process, which should in the long run ensure
demographic stabilization and an acceptable level of social and
economic development. The first section is a summary presentation
of the problem facing both villages. Then, the research
approach is described, and objectives and basic methodology to
be used in collecting the data for in-depth insight into the
situation and problems determined. These will be the basis of
model recommendations and guidelines prepared for future
development activities.
