Sažetak
The cities of the post-war socialist Yugoslavia greatly owe their urban development to the industrialisation as the dominant economic driver whose growth depended on the opportune demographic measure of massive rural exodus from the hinterland and islands. Social housing program therefore becomes the postulate of the new urbanisation. The research deals with the correlation of two aspects of the urbanisation - type of primary economic activity and housing development, following the hypothesis of the crucial significance of the function of living for the success of the urban planning approach. The comparison of the former with the contemporary urban planning practice shows the differences of two paradigms - post-war socialist city in the context of modernisation and post-socialist city in the context of the political shift and deterioration of the urban. In the area of industrialised Kaštela Bay, the symbiosis of two modernisation achievements - industrialisation and urbanisation, is being created within the capricious manner of spatial zoning - the growing city on the Split peninsula looks upon its new plants rising on the other side of the bay. One of them is the PVC factory Jugovinil, across the newly built apartment house designed by architect Vuko Bombardelli and named Experiment57, free of any euphemisms. A few decades later, while witnessing the dissolution of Yugoslavia, those tenants witness the decay of their factory as well. It becomes the target of the new post-transition economic driver - tourism. But unlike the important role that housing had within the former economic force of industrialisation, the new sector turns out to be literary fatal for housing domain. In a prodigious capillary manner, touristic gentrification attacks even the modern housing blocks. Both physical and sentimental links between workplace and living place got cut off, the cities of Split and Kaštela separated administratively and the area of privatised Jugovinil plant is planned "with the colours" of touristic zones. Despite declarative distance towards zoning, the example of M9 zone of former Jugovinil illustrates that contemporary planning tools modestly resist such rigorous spatial exclusions and the investors' pressure, scarcely managing to implement housing into the mixed use areas.
