Sažetak
The Town of Vukovar suffered heavy destruction during Serbian military aggression in the 1990s. The paper shows and explains in brief the basic post-war development challenges (obstacles, difficulties and possibilities) of the Town of Vukovar (Croatia). Overviews are presented based upon the relevant statistical, demographic and other documentation and literature, the human and demographic losses, as well as the material damage. In accordance with the ”balance” of the consequences of the Croatian Homeland War and recent development documents, the basic obstacle factors of the post-war development and progress of Vukovar are identified and comprehended. The most important demographic indicators are explained. For a number of reasons, they are one of the key negative elements in the development of the Town of Vukovar. The current unfavourable demographic situation tends to further deterioration in the future and is having a negative general influence on the economy.
