Sažetak
Economic, demographic and social problems are bigger and more complex in the areas of special government care than in the rest of Croatia. One part of the problem is due to the specific local issues caused by direct and indirect consequences of the war, and the other part of the problem is similar to issues troubling the rest of Croatia, but with more pronounced negative characteristics. The majority of these problems can be solved by coherent regional politics directed towards increasing dynamics of economic growth and development of these areas. Since local development cannot be achieved without local resources, which also includes human resources, and without adequate entrepreneurial environment, special problems of these areas are entrepreneurial capacities. Areas of special government care are inferior to the rest of Croatia regarding human potential and entrepreneurial climate. Because of that, future programs of government intervention should include capacity building (especially in terms of human potential) and not only financial incentives for development. Without adequate human resources and strengthening of the whole entrepreneurial environment in these areas, financial aid incentives (loans) will not by itself achieve optimal and expected results.
