doktorskog rada (en.): The Serb rebellion in the beginning of the nineties appeared and spread also in the Western Slavonia. The rebelled Serbs in Western Slavonia worked during the first half of the 1990, and in the beginning of the 1991 on forming administrative - territorial zones which would include the area between the rivers Sava and Drava, inhabited by the Serb population. By establishment and founding of the Republic of Serbian Krajina (“RSK”) the rest of the occupied territory held by rebelled Serbs in Western Slavonia became a part of RSK, being one of three territorial units of “RSK”, under the official tittle of Serbian Autonomous Oblast of Western Slavonia. Serbian Autonomous Oblast of Western Slavonia was in many ways in specific position according to the other parts of “RSK”, mostly because of its geographical segregation, isolation and considering the littleness of the territory it included. Due to the ineffective functioning of the so called state institutions in Knin that part of RSK was left on its own and to its very restricted, limited possibilities in revitalising economy and the state institutions. All of that resulted in the fact that the leadership of “SAO Zapadna Slavonija” was more cooperative and willing to work with the representatives of the UNPROFOR and even but in limited extent with the Croatian officials.rnThe main part of the work deals with the period after the cessation of armed conflicts which came to light in the beginning of 1992. The primary and capital goal of these doctoral dissertation was to describe and to elaborate the founding and acting of rebelled Serbs institutions, firstly from functioning of administration bodies, police, judicial system, secondly the research attention was given to system of public and social institutions, state companies and in accordance to that the author deals also with the operating of the private economical sector and the rate of realisation of the elementary preconditions needed for the functioning of the para-state of the rebelled Serbs in the defined domain of investigation. In doing so the author has analysed the disposal and use of financial, economic and personal resources of the RSK and the Serbian Autonomous Oblast of Western Slavonia. Furthermore the external and internal factors which influenced on the establishment of Serbian administration on the occupied Croatian ground additionally to earlier mentioned political-military circumstances which had effect on RSK were also a subject of study in the thesis.
