Building the Affordable Arcadia. Tourism development on the Croatian Adriatic coast under state socialism

Although the modernization activities of developing tourist environments in socialist Yugoslavia did not overcome monofunctional programming, the physical articulation of tourist areas – the controlled regional distribution of tourist capacities, rational design of urbanistic ensembles, quality of architectural articulation, distribution of programs within architectural complexes, implementation of public infrastructure – all generated active, interesting and accessible environments. They gradually became non-planned social condensers. Once planned as a town’s “other” or as simulations of urban environments, the tourist environments have shown through time their capacity to take in the public sphere.
