Sažetak
In the period 1961—1981, of a total
of 113 communes in the S. R.
Croatia as many as 61 (or 54.0
percent) had depopulation processes.
As the total population
decreased, so did the participation
of the population from depopulation
communes in the total
population of the S. R. Croatia,
from 39.4 percent in 1961, to only
30.5 percent in 1981.
In most of the communes (38) depopulation
is modest, which means
that 36 communes have between
5 percent and 20 percent
population less. The population
of Vis (41.0 percent), Lastovo
(33.6 percent), Gračac (32.5 percent)
and Titova Korenica (29.0
percent) has decreased drastically.
Of all the communities of communes
in the S. R. Croatia, one is
totally depopulatory (Gospić). In
the community of communes of
Karlovac only the commune of
Karlovac is not depopulatory, and
in the community of communes
of Bjelovar only the communes
of Koprivnica and Bjelovar. The
community of communes of Split
has the largest absolute number
of depopulatory communes (12).
The basic reason for these population
changes in mechanlical movement,
its negative aspect — population
migrations have formed
depopulated regions in the S. R.
Croatia. The natural population
increase, although it is gradually
descreasing in the whole region
studied, has nevertheless remained
positive in most of the depopulated
communes.
There is a positive correlation
between depopulation processes
and degree of economic development. All the economically insufficiently
developed communes in
the period 1961—1981 were depopulatory,
and of the total number
of communes in developed phases
of depopulation, 15 are economically
insufficiently developed.
