摘要：The paper analyses Central Dalmatian territory in the 2nd half of the 20th century as one of demographically more progressive parts of the Republic of Croatia. Analyses of overall population trends and the dynamic components of overall trends (natural change and migration balance) have been made for the 1961 to 2001 period. The space has been analysed through its three components: the hinterland, the coastal area and the islands. The results have shown that all three components of Central Dalmatia have not been equally characterized by the cited demographic progression. Namely, by the analysis (dissection) of the dynamic components of the overall population trends, it was established that two out of the three spatial components of the Central Dalmatian territory were in a regressive, and only the smallest one of them in a progressive demographic phase throughout the entire analysed period. In this way, Central Dalmatia proved to be a space of differentiated demographic development with an unfavourable developmental structure, where population is concentrated in the narrow longitudinal coastal zone.
