Sažetak
Using secondary demo-statistical sources, the first purpose of this Chapter is to provide a coherent overview of historical Croatian migration flows from and to Croatia. Secondly, it analyses contemporary migration patterns, flows and stocks. A decade after its independence, Croatia was characterised by war- induced migration and displacement. The post- war period led to the stabilisation of emigration and returnee flows, as well as to further regular labour (e)migration trends and some new regular and irregular (im)migration flows. Thirdly, the Chapter also depicts contemporary Croatian migration, asylum and integration legal and institutional framework, discussing policies and practices in this area. Firstly, some methodological difficulties that occurred while analysing the above-mentioned issues are pointed out. Further on, based on conducting a desk-study analysis of legal and political documents, this Chapter discusses the legislative and institutional framework for aliens, asylum, citizenship and integration law(s). Moreover, it analyses current migration and integration policies, which were introduced in the final stages of harmonisation with the EU acquis prior to Croatia’s accession. The Chapter ends with concluding remarks regarding the political debate on migration issues and the presence of foreigners in Croatian society, as well as by mapping some of the future challenges concerning Croatian migration, asylum and integration politics and policies.
