Sažetak

The article deals with the historical, political, legislative and financial framework for the development of a combined social policy in Croatia. This framework is further connected with the potentials for the development of this social policy concept.
The methodological framework of the empirical part of the study is for the most part based on the author's practice-research engagement and a policy analysis.
Civic initiatives concerning social policy have no tradition in Croatia. Civic engagement of citizens and the foundation of first non-profit, nonBgovermental, civil institutions in the field of social policy are connected with the war and refugee crisis at the beginning of the 1990's.
Reeximining the theories on the development of the civic society in social area, the author explains the development of this sector under the influence of the demand and the supply coming from foreign organisations' programmes. Discussed are also the limitations of the extend of the development with respect to the theory of dependence on the made path.
The centralized social policy system and the paternalist concept of social state have retarded the creation of a favourable legislative, and especially financial framework for the development of a combined social policy. On the other hand, the policy framework for the development of this concept has not set clear goals, the realization of which has been systematically examined in this paper.
The final part of the paper contains recommendations for the development in this sector and for further research.
