Abstract

Rad se bavi migracijama u Imotskoj krajini - prostoru nekadašnje općine Imotski, danas podijeljenom između Grada Imotskog i osam područja upravnih općinskih jedinica. Još od vremena pada pod Turke pa do današnjih dana ovaj geostrateški i povijesno nemirni prostor doživljava migriranja uzrokovana raznim situacijama. Imotski kao nemirno granično područje koji je kroz povijest uz promjene vladara često mijenjao i strukturu stanovništva. Osim burnih ratnih događanja ovaj prostor je često oskudijevao vodom, a oslanjajući se najviše na poljoprivredu nije mogao prehraniti stanovništvo. Zbog toga , stanovništvo je pribjegavalo dnevnim migriranjima prema obalnim naseljima kao tzv. škojarski težaci ili sezonskim kao berači kukuruza u Slavoniji i Vojvodini. U prvoj polovici 20. st. Imoćani kao poznati trgovci bili su poznati kao galantari, sitni putujući trgovci koji su ekranizirani u Prosjacima i sinovima. Migracije su često bile vezane uz bolesti vinove loze, tako je samo u dvije godine 1905. - 1907. zbog peronospore 1500 mladića je iz Imotskog odselilo u SAD. Rad će prikazati pregled pokretljivosti stanovništva od turskih osvajanja (1493.) do danas.

Abstract (english)

The Master Thesis deals with migrations in the Imotski region - the area of the former municipality of Imotski, today divided between the City of Imotski and eight areas of administrative municipal units. From the time it fell under the Turks to the present day, this geostrategic and historically restless area has experienced migrations caused by various situations. Imotski has been a restless border area through the ages, which has often changed the structure of the population along with changes in rulers. In addition to the stormy war events, this area, which often lacked water, and relying mostly on agriculture, could not feed the population, which for this reason also resorted to daily migrations to coastal settlements such as the so-called Škoja heavyweights or seasonally as corn pickers in Slavonia and Vojvodina. In the first half of the 20th century, the people of Imo as well-known merchants were known as haberdashers, small itinerant merchants who were depicted in Prosjaci i sinovi. Migrations were often related to vine diseases, so in just two years (1905-1907) due to downy mildew, 1,500 young men from Imotski moved to the USA. The Master Thesis will present an overview of population mobility from the Turkish conquests (1493) to the present day.
