Abstract

The region of Vojvodina and the region of Banat are under constant migrations of population. The reasons for migrations are numerous. The main reasons are peoples’ quest for socio-economic welfare and changes in lifestyles. The most frequent reasons for changing permanent residence are of economic nature although, simultaneously with the development of society migrations of religious, political and national nature become frequent. They occur as either forced or voluntary, mass or individual, planned or chaotic actions. All the reasons for migrations occurred in Banat throughout history. After the World War II, certain number of German population moved from Banat. They were replaced by about 81,000 postwar migrants. Between 1961 and 1991 migrations within Banat itself followed, especially migrations from rural areas into urban centers and regional centers. At the end of the 20th century about 45,700 refugees from the republics of former Yugoslavia arrived in Banat.
