Sažetak
Ridderstrale and Nordstrom point out: «In the world of developed capitalism, success is not measured by getting a backstage pass ; only imagination and authenticity are put first, and future, as always, belongs to those standing in the front lines.» This century is the «century of entrepreneurs». This especially holds for Croatia, in which true originality must become more valuable than ever. Courage, boldness, and, consequently, innovations, represent the future in the world of entrepreneurship. Economic crisis is a chance for Croatia, and small business is a possible potential of economic prosperity. This claim has been supported by the fact that the Croatian government focused on small entrepreneurship in its project «Croatia in the 21st Century», as a generator of development of entire economy, which emphasises the country's national policy and re-organisation of social institutions in favour of small business as the key determinant of entrepreneurial success. The meaning of entrepreneurship in the development of Croatian economy includes the same determinants as in other European countries. On European level, entrepreneurship stimulates opening of new workplaces and economic growth ; it has been crucially significant for competitiveness, it develops personal resources and develops general social interests. Creating entrepreneurial conditions demands a co- ordinated government policy and the concept of a comprehensive legal, strategic, and institutional approach to development of small business. The policy should be implemented continuously, by introducing the standards of the European Union, and implementing legislation for government grants. Small business will maintain its development with stimulative measures, become a factor of adjustment to market trends, total economy development, which is, after all, a pre- requisite of increasing competitiveness of the Croatian economy on the global market. The basic question the authors want to answer in this paper is whether accession to the European Union would be profitable for small business. The purpose of the paper is to present the expected positive effects on small enterprises upon accession to the EU, and point out possible disadvantages and costs of remaining outside of the integration of European democratic countries. The objective of the paper is to present the current state of small entrepreneurship in the Republic of Croatia from the point of view of key EU entrepreneurial documents, and to design a dynamic concept of entrepreneurial economy of the Republic of Croatia.
