Summary: Given the total population, Croatia had during the Second World War immense total human losses (estimates of 300000 persons). The problem has not yet been systematically researched in Croatian historiography. The goal of the project is to gradually research the archives and other relevant sources. We intend to establish a questionnaire for each lost person, which would provide us with basic information: name of victim, cause and way of his or her death. The results of the research will be published as articles in extended studies. Special monographs will be our final goal.

Keywords: Croatia, the Second World War, population, human losses

Research goals: The main goal of the research is to establish a "data bank" of total human losses on the territory of Croatia during the Second World War, regardless of who or what caused the death (Germans, Italians, Hungarians, Serbian Chetniks, Partisans and their allies). Our project will also encopass the citizens of Croatia perished in other territories. The establishment of real human loss during the Second World War is the basis for the study of demographic losses of the population of Croatia during the same period.
