摘要:The basis of the idea for this paper is that, for several years now, very little has been done in the fight against poverty in Croatian society. The problem of poverty in a political sense has been discussed mainly on the level of political phrases and not in a way to really attempt to considerably decrease this phenomenon. In an attempt to contribute to this approach, in the first part of this paper the results of all important research on poverty in Croatia over the last 10 years are given systematically. Simultaneously, methodological differences in this research are shown and the view that the distribution of poverty in Croatian society has not been sufficiently researched is stated. The second part of the paper outlines the thesis that the existing measures of social policy are not efficient enough in influencing a reduction in the rate of poverty. For the rate of poverty to be considerably reduced, it is necessary to make important changes in the macro plan of society such as; accelerating the reduction of regional differences in the rate of development between certain regions in Croatia, reducing the huge differences in wages between certain sectors of business by taxation and other measures, creating a yearly rate of growth of GDP between 5 and 7 % together with increasing the rate of employment, bringing in a system of progressive taxation which would be applied to the companies that achieve extra profits over a longer period of time and so on.
