Sažetak
Among traditional Croatian regions Turopolje is one of the smallest, but also one with a widely recognizable name and distinctive characteristics. Between 2018 and 2021, The Miroslav Krleža Institute of Lexicography compiled the edition devoted exclusively to the Turopolje region. One of the basic conceptional issues for its editors was to determine the area of the region and consequently define the area which is to be embraced by the research. This article reviews different territorial definitions of Turopolje as well as changes in administrative-territorial divisions during last century and a half, which preceeded actual situation. Taking into account that encyclopedias generally tend to apply a holistic approach, the editors decided to include present-day administrative units the township of Velika Gorica, communes of Kravarsko, Orle and Pokupsko, as well as parts (particular settlements) of the township of Zagreb and the commune of Lekenik.
