DEMOGRAPHIC AND WAR LOSSES OF CROATIA IN THE WORLD WAR TWO AND IN THE POSTWAR PERIOD

Vladimir Žerjavić ; Zagreb, Croatia

Abstract

Much has been written about the human losses of Croatia in the World War Two and in the period following it, but a lot of these writings offers unfounded and contradictory information. The author refers to the previous manipulations with the number of the war victims and presents his own calculation of the losses in the World War Two (demographic losses, emigration, war losses). He deals especially with the problem of victims in Jasenovac, near Bleiburg, on the way of the cross and in the postwar period, and also the Croatian, Serbian and Muslim victims during the Independent State of Croatia.
