Agrarian Density and External Migrations of the Peasant Population in Croatia
Ivan Lajić
Sažetak
In the analyses of emigrational
groups, formed in the present-day
migrational processes (during the
two latest periods between the
censuses), peasant-migrants have
been represented to small degree.
Contrary to the industrial
workers, this category of migrant
leave their own means of
production and ventures to take
the first important migrational
course. The causes for abandoning
agriculture and migrating towards
employment in foreign countries
are similar to those which occur in
the process of deagrarization.
However, while the final effect
of deagrarization means definite
parting of a peasant from land,
this only partially happens in the
case of foreign countries.
Returning migrants from abroad
are inclined to take up towards
individual farming, bringing new
qualitative shifts in production
and household expenditure, which
has a compensating influence on
the process of deagrarization and
pre-migrational tensions.
Among the causes of
pre-migrational tensions in
individual farming a special
attention has been paid to the
agrarian density of population.
Linear corelation between agrarian
density and the volume of
agricultural migrations proves that
agrarian density considerably
influences the agricultural
external migrations. This relation
was analysed at the level of
macro-regions, and in a survey
from 1977 at the level of households.
The latter method creates a firm
connection betwen external
migrations and agrarian density.
By mathematical relations we have
been able to bring together external
migrations and agrarian density,
analysed from the aspect of
production and consumption.
