Based on the liberal Slovenian newspapers from Trieste (Edinost) and Gorizia (Soča), the paper focuses on the idea of introducing the third state unit in the Habsburg Monarchy before the First World ...War. The author first presents the broader context in which the concept was formed and then analyses the comments of two newspapers on the reactions of various political groups, their ambitions, and the national tensions that arose in the context of discussing the proposed reform. The author argues that the trialist concept was, foremost, an Austrian attempt to federalize the Habsburg Monarchy in order to reduce the strength of Hungary. At the beginning of the 20th century, the majority of Slovenes and Croats, including the Slovene liberals from Trieste and Gorizia, supported this idea because it implied their political emancipation. On the other hand, Hungarians, Italians, German nationalists, and Serbs saw this concept as a threat to their own national interests. In the further development of the trialist concept, due to Austria’s ambitions to satisfy the Italians, Trieste and Gorizia were excluded from the imagined third unit, which led to tensions between the Slovenian liberals and conservatives, and in the Croatian-Slovenian relations as well. The Slovenian liberals from Trieste and Gorizia began to advocate the idea of a broader federalism, where the Habsburg Monarchy would have more than three federal units, while in the context of South Slavic relations they were inclined to Serbian state visions.
During World War II, the Roma population in Croatia was exposed to the repression and assimilation policy of several authorities. Ustasha authorities in the Independent State of Croatia persecuted ...Roma based on racial laws aimed at their genocidal extermination. This paper analyses the position of Roma in some present-day Croatian areas, especially in the Croatian Littoral, which were under Italian (Fascist) rule during the war. Only a few dozen Roma lived in these border areas before the war, who were already subject to the repressive-assimilation policies of the official Italian authorities. This is evidenced by the provisions issued by the aforementioned authorities with the aim of better monitoring the movement of Roma in the Italian–Yugoslav border area. As World War II approached, it was noticeable that the Italian authorities’ relationship with the Roma was intensifying, because they feared, first and foremost, Roma espionage and association with the anti-fascist (communist) resistance movement. The deportation of Roma from the wider Istrian area to internment camps in southern Italy, Sardinia, etc. must be observed in this context. According to other Roma living in the Croatian Littoral, the Italian authorities often sought to control their movements, especially after the establishment of the Independent State of Croatia in April 1941, when attempts were made to reach the Roma in areas under Italian rule. This paper studies the attitude of Croatian anti-fascists towards the Roma. Some tension (conflicts) can be seen in the perception of the indigenous population towards the Roma, in this case in the Omišalj area on the island of Krk. The Roma population managed to survive the war in the Croatian Littoral area, though a considerable number of them died.

Croatia is one of the major Mediterranean destinations for nautical tourism owing to its countless attractions, indented coastline, numerous islands, climatic and other advantages. An important ...factor for achieving a full development potential is the availability of infra- and supra-structure, which is reflected through investments in new marinas, anchorages and other facilities. The article analyses accommodation capacities of ports for nautical tourism in Croatia. The authors give an overview of the current situation with an emphasis on the County of Primorje-Gorski Kotar. The purpose of this article is to analyse the growing need for accommodation capacities in nautical tourism ports and to point to the importance of building new marinas and berths, especially for boats long between 12 and 15 meters.
Koprsko primorje je najbolj obiskano turistično območje v Sloveniji. Velik turistični obisk vpliva tudi na značilnosti prometa na tem območju. Analiza podatkov o dnevnem številu vozil za števna mesta ...prometa na tem območju je pokazala, da so spremembe v obsegu prometa v veliki meri povezane z razpoložljivostjo prostega časa in vremenom. Kljub temu so glede intenzivnosti in opaznosti tovrstnih vplivov znotraj območja precejšnje razlike, saj se na njem prepletajo vplivi turizma, drugih gospodarskih dejavnosti in lokalnega prebivalstva.
U radu se s povijesno-geografskog aspekta razmatra nastanak, razvoj i slabljenje senjskog parobrodarstva, ključnog elementa ukupnoga socijalnog i gospodarskog napretka Senja na prijelazu iz 19. u 20. ...stoljeće. Početkom 19. stoljeća senjska luka je bila, zahvaljujući posebnoj gradskoj autonomiji i suvremenoj cestovnoj povezanosti, jedno od najvažnijih pomorskih trgovačkih središta Hrvatskog primorja i Jadrana u cjelini, čiji su stanovnici važni sudionici u brojnim društvenim, gospodarskim i političkim previranjima. Zasigurno je i razvoj parobrodarstva omogućio Senjanima dobar položaj na sve zahtjevnijem ekonomskom tržištu. U radu se analiziraju i važni uzroci slabljenja senjskog gospodarstva koji su u vrijeme Kraljevine Jugoslavije Senj izolirali od do tada prevladavajućih pomorskih i gospodarskih silnica te bitno utjecali na opći socioekonomski život grada.
The Croatian Littoral has been the most important tourist destination for tourists from Slovenia for decades. The coastal areas of Istria, Kvarner, and Dalmatia, including the Adriatic islands, ...became widely popular among Slovenes in the period of intense tourism development in the once common state of Yugoslavia. Today Croatia is the destination of as many as 60% of all private trips from Slovenia. In the introduction the affinity of Slovene tourists for travel abroad is supplemented with statistical data on their visits to the Republic of Croatia. In the next sections special emphasis is placed on the number of Slovene tourists and overnight stays, their average length of stay and spatial distribution in the Croatian Littoral in 2007. These data are then compared to those from 1999. The central section of the article consists of a detailed analysis of the content of the internet tourism offer of Slovene travel agencies as presented on their websites. The objects of the analysis were the structure of advertised destinations in the Croatian Littoral across counties and the structure of offer by type of tourist services (summer vacation, travelling/trip, cruising).
Napuštanje seoskih sredina Dubrovačkog primorja tijekom posljednjih pedesetak godina odrazilo se na njegove prostorne karakteristike i identitet, obilježavajući ga kao predio s izraženim procesom ...zapuštanja poljoprivrednih površina. Cilj rada je, na osnovi inventarizacije i analize prostora Dubrovačkog primorja, odrediti tipove krajobraza, te utvrditi potencijalne prostorne kvalitete.
Podjela krajobraza na prirodne (obala, krajobraz kamenjara, krajobraz makije) i kulturne (naselja, poljoprivredni kulturni krajobraz) proizlazi iz prirodnih i društvenih obilježja prostora. Istraživanje je pokazalo zanimljive karakteristike samoga poljoprivrednog krajobraza kao izražajnog prostornog elementa. Njegova podjela izvršena je s obzirom na formu, koja je rezultat namjene i prirodnih obilježja prostora. Tako su izdvojeni krajobrazi polja s raznolikom pravilnom i nepravilnom parcelacijom, krajobrazi suhozida organskih i poligonalnih formi, te krajobrazi terasa različito dimenzioniranih omjera. Rezultati istraživanja su pokazali da se na ovom prostoru nalaze zanimljivi i raznoliki tipovi krajobraza, koji svojom artikulacijom čine zanimljivu prostornu sliku s izražajnom dinamikom. Osim prirodnih, i kulturni krajobrazi se mogu podijeliti na one koji imaju tendenciju širenja i na one koji nestaju kao posljedica trenutnih ekonomsko-gospodarskih trendova. Identifi kacija tipova krajobraza može biti preduvjet za odredbu razvojnih kriterija prostora u budućnosti.
The significance of migration in the contemporary demographic development of Rijeka and its coastal area is discussed in the paper. The analysis has shown that the City of Rijeka presents a ...demographically regressive area from which the deconcentration of population, mainly to suburban areas, is taking place. At the same time, the Littoral is the area of demographic growth as a result of high immigration rates, while natural demographic trends are negative; however, this does not have such intensity as in the case of the urban population of Rijeka. The comparison of vital index and migration data indicates a high degree of correlation between immigration and natural change in population so that settlements in the nearer gravitation area, being the space of strong in-migration between the 1990s and 2000s, shows distinct demographic growth and positive population bio-dynamics. Compared with them, settlements in the broader gravitational area have weaker intensity of permanent population resettlement as well as considerably unfavourable total and natural population trends. Based on the established demographic situation, population forecasts have been made for the years 2021 and 2031 indicating continued depopulation processes in the macro-regional centre of Rijeka and further demographic progression in the coastal area.
