摘要:The purpose of this research is to determine/assess, based on accessible, but incomplete data, the extent and structure of demographic losses during the war, first and foremost in the domain of direct and migrational population losses and natality losses. The aim of the study is to uncover the causal connection between war demographic losses and the occurrence and strengthening of depopulation processes in the domain of natural and total population trends in Croatia. Croatia's war demographic losses during the Homeland War are a significant factor of contemporary population development tendencies, especially in the emergence and intensification of the natural and total depopulation processes. It has been determined that the total demographic war losses in Croatia between 1991 and 2001 amounted to 450 276 inhabitants. In the structure of these losses, migrational losses comprise 92.94%, war mortality 4.93%, and natality losses 2.13%. If the mentioned demographic war losses are reduced by the contingent of immigrants into Croatia between 1991 and 2001 (232 966 persons), we have a net balance of demographic losses comprising 217 310 persons.
