Sažetak
This country study of Croatia presents the findings of desk and empirical research carried out with the aim to provide comprehensive analyses of the civil security system, comparable to the other country studies within the ANVIL project. The study shows that several types of crisis events are most frequent in Croatia floods, fires and droughts. Croatia also faces seismic risks of earthquakes and a threat from leftover mines. The crisis management system in Croatia inherited traditions of the former Yugoslav federation. The system functioned well during the war of independence (1991 - 1995) while the principles of civil security have been changed during its further development. The dominant crisis management approach became civilian-based rather than military-based. The legal and institutional structures have been reformed in 2005. The coordination of the civil security system has been established at national level and takes an all hazards approach in the case of disaster and major accidents.
