Migration and Depopulation of Dalmatian Islands: a Short Demographic Account

Ivan Lajić ; Republic Institute of Social Planning, Zagreb, Croatia

Abstract

The point of departure of this work is migration seen as one of the main causes of the contemporary depopulation of our insular regions. The purpose of the work is to identify, that is to remind of, the process of migration as one of the factors having an impact on the demographic exodus from the regions concerned. In this context an attempt is made at quantifying, both as a concept and in reality, the share of migration (internal migration in particular) in the overall movement of the population from Dalmatian islands and insular clusters in the 1961–1981 period.
