Summary/Abstract: The results of factor analyses of numerous opinion polis conducted from 1993 to 1997 indicated a stability of basic determinants underlying the perception of citizens with regard to the expression of specific local issues appearing in certain parts of Croatia. The basic determinants consistently identified in each poll were issues under the names "Regional Neglect", "Social Welfare Issues", "Consequences of War". The scope and content of the dimensions defined have not changed much after the liberation of occupied territories in military operations "Bljesak" (Flash) and "Oluja" (Storm). The dimensions identified partly reflect the true problem centres, and in part the ability of the public to distinguish and conceptualize the existing groups of problems.
