Sažetak
Migration has been a livelihood strategy and one of the key social processes throughout Croatian 20ies century history of modernisation and under the impact of different political regimes. Since Croatia left the Federal Socialist Republic of Yugoslavia and gained recognition as an independent state in 1992, migration has continued and since the financial crisis in 2008 and with EU accession in 2013 even accelerated. Tracing back to initial migration contexts and itineraries, the paper sketches a typology of return migrants who – in however moderate numbers compared to emigrants - came back to Croatia during the past three decades. Based on semi-structured interviews with return migrants of different generations, backgrounds, and with different migration histories, the nexus of return migration and social change is drawn into focus: by relating migration motives and paths to those of return in different stages of the transition ; engagement in professional and civic life to social status, networks, and trust ; value-based ideas of change and innovation with transfer strategies and practices. The diversity of Croatia´s emigrant community is mirrored in the variety of return migrants and their contributions to socio-cultural diversification and change.
