The census results show that the younger, better educated, employed and those with their own apartments, more than others wish to remain in the FR of Yugoslavia. War-affected persons of other than Serb nationality, the elderly, pensioners, the unemployed and those accommodated in collective centers, to a greater extent plan to repatriate. In order to find durable solutions it is important also to analyze the number of war-affected persons and the conditions under which they would return to their previous habitual residence. According to the survey, conducted by the Economic institute, a mere 4.0% of the respondents replied that they would return "regardless of everything, while a further 3.9% would return if they were given guarantees regarding their safety. An important factor for 34.2% of the respondents, in addition to their safety is the existence of appropriate financial conditions, while 57.9% would not return, under any circumstances. Although the future plans of the refugees cannot be considered as being definite, finding durable solutions, especially in the sphere of refugee integration cannot be left to spontaneous processes. Rather this requires the formulation of a programme that must be development oriented and designed so that conflicts with the local population are avoided. A precisely defined legal and institutional framework is necessary for integration. Both in this sphere, and especially in the part which will remain humanitarian in character, international assistance is indispensable.

This phenomenon became prominent in the mid 60s with mass migration of trained professional personnel from developing to the developed countries. The process has gained in intensity over time comprising a growing number of countries and involving an increasing number of people. With vigorous social changes taking place throughout the country in recent years, the exodus of qualified labor from Yugoslavia has gained dramatic proportions. Notwithstanding the above, very few authors engage in analyzing this issue primarily because of the shortage of elementary sources of information. A study of external migration, especially migration of labor force (both in the SFRY and the SRY), has always had to be based on estimates as the public has never had an access to precise data on the number and composition of emigrants. In addition to poor statistical records, this paper also displays the results of few and mostly partial studies of the phenomena as well as some estimates. Data on employment and unemployment in the country can also be used to indirectly determine the scope of emigration of skilled labor. Since emigration of scientists and highly skilled workers and intellectuals from our country is regarded primarily as a social loss (which is undeniable), an effort has been made in this paper to point to the undermined significance and the legitimacy of an individual s right to personal attainment. Yugoslav society is currently burdened not only by open but also by hidden unemployment as well as by inadequate employment of the highly skilled professional personnel. Thus, when speaking of the great social loss, we may also relate it to the country s skilled professional personnel. With a severe social crisis pervading the country, the "brain drain" is manifested at two levels: as emigration of skilled labor and as a deterioration of the available skilled labor potentials.

A major portion of the article is devoted to the policy of population fertility and aims to contribute to the research of experiences in implementation of population policy across the world. Interest in this particular policy is due not only to the fact that it represents the demographic policy per se and implies the greatest number of uncertainties, but also because of the need and widespread demands for its implementation in our country. The main features and results of the policy implemented so far in the area of population fertility as well as the measures proposed over the coming decades disclose major problems which are almost impossible to resolve in both the developed and the developing world as opposed to the mortality and migratory policies and the political response to the ageing of population. Despite doubtless improvements in terms of quality - coverage, principles and targets, developed institutional framework - fertility policy is not efficient enough to resolve the population-related problems. Steps to increase or decrease the birth rate must be more intensive, more comprehensive and scientifically based. The possible new policy directions lie in economic development which takes into account the demographic factor in the developing world and the population education in the developed countries. However, major and probably the most complex issue to be resolved by the population policy lies in the sphere of awareness at the level of the state, political authorities, social structures and individuals.   Keywords: population policy; fertility; mortality; migrations; population aging; developed countries; developing countries Journal: Stanovnistvo Pages: 47-65 Volume: 35 Issue: 1-2 Year: 1997 Month: June DOI: 10.59954/stnv.577 File-URL: https://stnv.idn.org.rs/STNV/article/view/577 File-Function: Abstract page File-Format: text/html File-URL: https://stnv.idn.org.rs/STNV/article/download/577/530 File-Function: Full text File-Format: application/pdf Handle: RePEc:eto:stanov:v:35:y:1997:i:1-2:id:577 Template-Type: ReDIF-Article 1.0 Author-Name: Luka Todorović Title: Marina Janjić-Komar i Mirjana Obretković: "Prava deteta - prava čoveka" Publication-Status: Published Abstract: None.

The failure of community life has become a socially relevant fact only in respect of the consequences of divorce. The divorce itself is increasingly less regulated and such liberal attitude decreases the social significance of marriage. There are different concepts of divorce: divorce by default of one of the spouses, dissolution of marriage, judicial separation, divorce by mutual consent of the spouses, etc. Opting for one of the concepts points to the significance of the cause of divorce while in some juridical systems only the divorce procedure lies in the domain of legal proceedings. Standing Yugoslav marriage law reflects all the dilemmas concerning divorce. If the intention was to increase the social significance of marriage, courts would be empowered to deny divorce on grounds of financial distress or obvious injustice to one of the spouses. As the divorce procedure is given the emphasis, the procedure of mediation gains in significance. As a result, divorce on longer represents just a remedy but becomes a responsible divorce.

Unfortunately, most of such pre-tests, including the one preceding the 1981 census taking, cannot be said to have attained their primary task of defining the general census contents and empirically checking the reliability of the methodological instruments to be applied in its taking. The differences in the contents of the pre-tests and general censuses as well as the ad hoc changes in the methodology are now commonly met in practice. The paper also deals with some important methodological and contents related issues such as: 1) the classification of the population by "residence" (de jure or de facto), 2) the standardization of the contents and the reduction of the number of items in census forms, 3) the elaboration of a more adequate statistical classification (typology) of settlements, 4) the possibility of obtaining "derived" characteristics, 5) the problems related to the uniform system of automatic data processing, 6) the criteria of logical control and their influence on data reliability, etc. Keywords: pre-tests; presence; classification of settlements; standardization; logical control Journal: Stanovnistvo Pages: 77-89 Volume: 35 Issue: 1-2 Year: 1997 Month: June DOI: 10.59954/stnv.579 File-URL: https://stnv.idn.org.rs/STNV/article/view/579 File-Function: Abstract page File-Format: text/html File-URL: https://stnv.idn.org.rs/STNV/article/download/579/532 File-Function: Full text File-Format: application/pdf Handle: RePEc:eto:stanov:v:35:y:1997:i:1-2:id:579 Template-Type: ReDIF-Article 1.0 Author-Name: Biljana Radivojević Title: Dušan Đošić: "Demographics with statistics" Publication-Status: Published Abstract: No. Journal: Stanovnistvo Pages: 142-148 Volume: 35 Issue: 1-2 Year: 1997 Month: June DOI: 10.59954/stnv.586 File-URL: https://stnv.idn.org.rs/STNV/article/view/586 File-Function: Abstract page File-Format: text/html File-URL: https://stnv.idn.org.rs/STNV/article/download/586/539 File-Function: Full text File-Format: application/pdf Handle: RePEc:eto:stanov:v:35:y:1997:i:1-2:id:586
