The market balloons are fast-growing price phenomena, followed by their dramatic drop. In some parts of Croatia - the coastline and in the city of Zagreb, real estate prices have been growing drastically, considering the period from the year 2000. The global economic crisis occurred in the United States came 2008 due to the inflation of real estate prices, which also transferred to the Croatian economy due to the flooding effect from one market to another. This paper examines whether the same case is happening in Croatia today, namely whether the real estate price increase in Croatia was justified or they are balloons that will suddenly break. Real estate prices in Croatia are growing due to several factors, such as increased real estate demand for tourist rental, housing loans subsidies for young people and increased real estate demand by foreigners. If there is a significant drop in tourist activity in Croatia, real estate prices could fall dramatically.

“Technology Spurs Decentralization Across the Country.” So reads a 1984 New York Times article on real-estate trends in the United States. The contemporary revolution in information processing and transmittal now allows large businesses and other institutions to disperse their offices and other facilities across the country, even across the world, without loss of the policy- and decision-making abilities formerly requiring regular physical proximity. Thanks to computers, word processors, and the like, decentralization has become a fact of life in America and other highly technological societies.

AbstractEleven Americans, including a publisher, an international entrepreneur, two librarians, an historian, an art designer, a real estate agent, an author, an academic, an IT consultant and a bibliophile, were asked to choose which ten books they would recommend to a new arrival in the United States. Their target was defined as literate in English, well read, and with an intelligent outsider's knowledge of the United States. The participants, who made their choices unbeknown to one another, were invited to annotate their choices. The result is a kaleidoscope of views and arguments, with surprisingly little overlap, reflecting the endless diversity of the subject. The earliest of the 87 titles recommended is dated 1786, the most recent 2011. They include the famous and the obscure, scholarly and popular, tomes and light reading, poetry and essays, history and biography, science and sociology.
