Sažetak
In drawing the Republic of Croatia closer to the European associations, one of the key areas of conformation in Croatian tourism and trade is in the adjustment of their basic material-technical standards to those accepted in such associations. The discrepancy between supply and demand over the last nine years (1990-1998) occurred as a consequence of the political instability instigated by the war activities in and around Croatia. Events such as these become an angry opponent to tourism rather than an ally. During the aformentioned time period, Croatian tourism forever los 7-12 years according to the number of lost tourist room/nights. This conclusion is reached if the realized tourist room/nights for the period between 1990-1998 are reduced to the level of one or more of the prewar years ( the so-called normal tourism years). This left unforeseen material consequences on Croatian tourism and its complementary activities. The paper will also discuss the relative significance of structural changes in certain tourism generating countries as compared to the tourism of the Republic of Croatia.
