Abstract

This sumary thesis analyses socio-geographical transformation of the Malinska-Dubašnica Municipality in the second half of the 20th century. A
transformation of an area happens as a consequence of general development (social and economical progress), transformation from traditional, rural to modern industrial society. In Croatia these processes are happening in conditions of polarized developement, in which urban based industrialisation stimulates development of cities, and stops the development of rural areas. These areas have partly deteriorated, but some show signs of gradual development, such as municipality Malinska - Dubašnica. Results have shown spatial unevenness of transformation at municipality level characterised by more intensive deagrarization and urbanization in easily accesible and more intensive deruralization in peripheral settlements. Tourism is one of the major factor of transformation in recent times. All these processes combined have caused great demographic and physiognomic changes. In the last several decades the population has permanent growth, transport and housing infrastructure are modernised and agrarian landscape is neglected inspot. The trend of further development of the municipality depends on further development of tourism, but also on activities outside of tourism, depending on trends within the Rijeka area which the municipality is part of.
