Contemporary problems in studying population of Vojvodina Province

Abstract

Census data often are not comparable due to slight changes in census methodology. Podatki v popisih prebivalstva pogosto medsebojno niso primerljivi zaradi manj{ih sprememb v metodologiji. ABSTRACT: This paper identifies nine contemporary problems that hamper the population research in Vojvodina Province (northern part of Republic of Serbia) at the beginning of the twenty-first century. These problems are: postponement of census to 2002, changes of the definition of permanent popultion, different definitions in available data of current statistics, changes of the definition of the urban settlement term, changes in the total number of settlements, decreased number of available data of current statistics, absence of the bulletin of current statistics, absence of population register and absence of regional institution for population studies. That implies that collected data in the censuses are often not comparable due to slight changes in methodology, changes in state borders.

“…territory of the Republic of Serbia (Đurđev et al, 2010;Vujko, Plavša, 2014). 317 weekend tourists who spent their weekends in this place in Fruško Gora, near Novi Sad were examined.…”

Six Decades of Human Geography and Environmental Protection in Acta geographica Slovenica

“…In the last two issues there has been a real renaissance of population studies. Articles by Serbian researchers have examined population characteristics in Vojvodina (Djurdjev, Arsenovi} and Dragin 2010), looked for connections between mortality and temperature conditions in Belgrade (Djurdjev, Arsenovi} and Dragin 2012), and compared commuting in Serbia and Slovenia (Luki} and To{i} 2011). New material has been introduced, such as aging at home with the help of information communication technologies (Kerbler 2012) and creative social groups in Slovenia (Ravbar 2011).…”

Evaluation of Fruška Gora National Park (Serbia) for sport and recreational tourism

“…The Mountain base is surrounded by two loess plateau areas, 130-150 m and 110-120 m high. The Mountain is partly covered with thick or thin layers of loess and loess deposits that ease severity and sudden transitions that are characteristics of older and more compact rocks, which is certainly in favour of sport and recreational tourism as a viable and accessible mountain in almost all its parts (Petkovi} et al 1976;Dragutinovi} 2000;Obradovi} 2006). However, to give an objective appraisal of the elements of Fru{ka Gora National Park sport and recreational tourism potential (individually and collectively), and to determine its usefulness and exchange value, it was necessary to access the tourist evaluation because evaluation means conscious development of tourism in a destination (]ur~i} and Bjeljac; Reynard and Fontana 2007;Pereira et al 2007;Comanescu et al 2009).…”
