Sažetak
The paper examines spatial mobility of the population on the present territory of the Republic of Croatia during one century (1880–1981). The aim of the author is to establish the basic characteristics of particular forms of internal migration. The analysis shows that in the examined area and time-period there was quite strong migration, both permanent and temporary (in all forms), and that the dominant form changed through time. In the period 1880–1945 permanent migration was dominant. It had its origin in undeveloped agrarian overpopulated areas (villages) and its destination in lowland areas of East Croatia and in trade and industrial centres. After World War II spatial mobility of the population increased. Permanent rural-urban migration was especially strong (about 600,000 persons 1948–1981), which significantly advanced differing, and often divergent processes. Croatia also arrived at a high level of daily migration: in 1981 44.7% of the employed population worked outside of their areas of residence and commuted daily between their homes and work-places.
