Abstract

U ovom radu se istražuje prostor općine Cetingrad, koja je reprezentativan primjer prigraničnog područja, te ju kao i većinu takvih područja u Hrvatskoj obilježavaju negativni demografski pokazatelji i trendovi. Demografska analiza odnosi se na razdoblje od 1971. godine do danas, gdje su definitivno potvrđeni svi negativni pokazatelji, pa je tako prisutna depopulacija, starenje i izumiranje stanovništva. Navedeni procesi dovode do demografske supstitucije stanovništva, koja se odnosi na promjenu narodnosne strukture stanovništva, a to je osnova ovog rada. Treba upozoriti kako je Domovinski rat jedan od najvažnijih destabilizacijskih čimbenika demografskog razvoja, te osim izrazitog smanjenja stanovništva čini prekretnicu u narodnosnoj strukturi dvije najbrojnije nacionalne manjine. Tako danas Srbi gotovo izumiru, dok Bošnjaci supstituiraju prigranična područja, pa se zbog toga očekuje kako će se važnost migracija u budućnosti povećati zbog graničnog položaja sa BiH.

Abstract (english)

This thesis researches the municipality of Cetingrad area, which is a representative example of a border area, and it is marked by negative demographic indexes and trends, as most such areas in Croatia. The demographic analysis refers to the period from 1971. until today where all the negative indexes have definitely been confirmed and thus herein we can find depopulation, obsolescence and extinction of population. The afore-mentioned processes lead to demographic substitution of population which pertains to the change of the population's nation structure, and that is the backbone of this thesis. It is important to point out that the Croatian War of Independence is one of the most important destabilizing factors of demographic growth, and beside the distinct decrease in population, it represents the milestone in the nation structure of the two most numerous national minorities. This is why Serbs today are almost extinct, while the Bosniaks are substituting the border areas and it is therefore expected that the importance of migrations in the future will be increased because of the border situation with Bosnia and Herzegovina.
