Summary/Abstract: The post-war situation in Slovakia required not only the solution of acute problems, but gradually issues related to the organization of the economy, its focus and management also came to the fore. In addition, food supply and solutions to a number of problems associated with the allotment system remained crucial. However, huge population movements and the associated overall changes in numbers and population structures posed an insurmountable problem for their planning. The impossibility of using the results of older population censuses, as well as the unreality of the earlier implementation of the first post-war population census, eventually led to a compromise solution in the form of a register of the civilian population in 1946. The aim of the article was to present the register in terms of its focus, methodology, preparation, course, as well as the content itself, and last but not least, we will also try to analyze some basic results.
