![]() Clearly, the tourist sector is very important but the fact remains that deep economic division within society often brings negative political and economic consequences.Īdding to the social problems, economy of Croatia is not doing very well. Almost half of the arable land lays in fallow. The prices of land and estates are several times lower in the northern areas of the country than at the coast. This is not, however, a permanent solution to the problem. The best situation is in Dalmatia and in the service sector during the summer season, when unemployment is significantly reduced and the labor force from other regions of Croatia and from abroad (Croats from Bosnia and Herzegovina) are migrating to the seaside and the tourism industry. Average rate of unemployment remain in Croatia at 15 per cent, the northern regions of Slavonia, Lika, and central Croatia are reaching 30 per cent level. 90 per cent of Croats face at least some difficulties in making month’s ends meet. The list begins with high, 30 per cent level of poverty and social exclusion. The new Prime Minister of Croatia, Andrej Plenković looks at the whole set of difficulties. Will it stand up to the problem or re-sing the song? Three years after the accession process has been accomplished but another government in Zagreb is facing the same difficulties.
