Abstract

Istraživanje kretanja stanovništva župe Gruž u razdoblju od 1684. do 1808. godine provedeno je na temelju analize matičnih knjiga, kanonskih vizitacija i popisa stanovništva Dubrovačke Republike 1673/4. godine, kao i relevantne znanstvene literature. Prilikom istraživanja utvrđeno je da osobe nisu bile redovito upisivane u matične knjige, a rezultati istraživanja zbog toga nisu pružili stvarnu sliku kretanja stanovništva. No, prema kanonskim vizitacijama i popisima stanovništva, stanovništvo Gruža je tijekom analiziranog razdoblja raslo, čemu je vjerojatno, osim imigracijskih procesa, doprinio i prirodni prirast, uzrokovan tranzicijom mortaliteta. Osim kroz tranziciju mortaliteta, proces demografske tranzicije očitovao se i kroz promjene u dobnim strukturama stanovništva. S obzirom na to da je Dubrovačka Republika bila politički stabilna i gospodarski razvijena država s razvijenom medicinskom skrbi i sustavom karantene, njezino je stanovništvo ušlo 100 godina ranije u ranu tranzicijsku podetapu nego stanovništvo ostatka današnje Hrvatske, a gruško stanovništvo vjerojatno nije bilo izuzetak u tom procesu.

Abstract (english)

Research into the movement of the population of Gruž parish in the period from 1684 to 1808 was based on the analysis of Church registers, canonical visitations and the population census of the Republic of Dubrovnik in 1673/4, as well as relevant scientific literature. During the research, it was concluded that people were not regularly registered in the Church registry books, and the results of the research therefore did not provide a real picture of the movement of the population. However, according to canonical visitations and population censuses, the population of Gruž grew during the analyzed period, which was probably contributed, in addition to immigration processes, by natural growth caused by the transition in mortality. In addition to the mortality transition, the process of demographic transition was also manifested through changes in the age structure of the population. Given that the Republic of Dubrovnik was a politically stable and economically developed state with developed medical care and a quarantine system, its population entered the early transition sub-stage 100 years earlier than the population of the rest of today's Croatia, and population of Gruž was probably not an exception in that process.
