Croatian Citizens Abroad and Members of the Families Who Live with Them According to the 1991 Census: Depicted According to the New Territorial Units of Local Self-Administration

Autor razmatra prostorni razmještaj migrantskog kontingenta prema popisu stanovništva 1991, ali po novom teritorijalnom ustrojstvu (487 općina i gradova). Glavni kvantitativni pokazatelj je tzv. stopa migracije koja pokazuje broj migranata ("radnici" i "članovi obitelji") na 100 stalnih stanovnika. Kartografski je predočena opća stopa (slika 1) i posebne stope za: Njemačku (slika 2), ostale europske zemlje (slika 3), Kanadu i SAD (slika 4) te Australiju (slika 5). Podaci su dati u četiri skupine brojčanih vrijednosti, tj. s četiri stupnja jakosti migracije: slaba (na karti bijelo), osrednja (sivo), jaka (uspravne crne crte) i vrlo jaka (crno), a kod nekih posebnih stopa javlja se i modalitet "bez pojave" (označeno sa X). Analitički kartogrami jasno ukazuju na izrazitu prostornu različitost jakosti vanjske migracije u Republici Hrvatskoj.The author examines the spatial distribution of emigrant contingents as received from the population census us of 1991, and according to the new territorial administration of Croatia (487 municipalities and cities). The main quantitative indicator is the so-called migration rate, which shows the number of emigrants ("workers" and "family members") per 100 permanent residents. The maps present the general migration rates for all foreign countries (fig. 1), as well as the specific rates for Germany (fig. 2), other European countries (fig. 3), Canada and the USA (fig. 4) and Australia (fig. 5). The data is given in four groups relating to the numeric intensity of the phenomenon, i.e. four groups of migration rates: weak (coloured white in the maps), medium (grey), strong (vertical black lines), very strong (black) and in regard to the specific migration rates for individual countries/regions, cased are noted where the phenomena does not occur (marked as X). The analytic mapping clearly illustrates a strong spatial variability of external migration from the Republic of Croatia
