Resettled and semi-resettled communities on the territory of Zmijanje

Abstract

The paper presents some facts about planned resettlement (Šljivno, Radmanići, a part of Dobrnje and Vilusi) and forcible resettlement of communities (Donje Ratkovo, Donje Sokolovo, Gornje Ratkovo, Gornje Sokolovo, Ljubina, and Gornja Kozica) on the territory of Zmijanje. Planned and forcible resettlements of ethnically homogenous communities (99.8% Serbs), have led to unforeseeable demographic disruptions not only in this area but in the larger part of the Republic of Srpska. A decisive moment for the overall development and settlement transformation of Zmijanje in terms of spatial-demographic, morpho-physiognomic and functional aspects, was the civil war in Bosnia and Herzegovina, which induced exodus from rural areas i.e. massive and chaotic territorial displacement of rural dwellers.

U ovom radu su prezentovane neke činjenice o planskim (Šljivno, Radmanići, deo Dobrnje i Vilusa) i prinudno ili nasilno raseljenim naseljima (Donje Ratkovo, Donje Sokolovo, Gornje Ratkovo, Gornje Sokolovo, Ljubine i Gornja Kozica) na teritoriji Zmijanja. Plansko i nasilno raseljavanje etnički homogenih naselja (99,8% Srbi), dovelo je do nesagledivih, pre svega, demografskih poremećaja ne samo na ovom prostoru nego i većem delu Republike Srpske. Presdan momenat za sveukupni razvoj i naseobinsku transformaciju Zmijanja, kako prostorno-demografskom, morfo-fizionomskom i funkcionalnom smislu, jeste građansko-verski rat u Bosni i Hercegvini koji je prouzrokovao seoski egzdus, odnosno masovno i haotično teritzrijalno pomeranje stanovništva.
