Autorica u ovom radu analizira ulogu časopisa Sociologija sela u bibliografskim
istraživanjima o selu i poljoprivredi, koja u Hrvatskoj imaju dugu tradiciju.
Naime, bibliografska su istraživanja počela paralelno sa znanstvenim istraživanjima
sela i poljoprivrede ranih šezdesetih godina 20. stoljeća, s osnutkom Agrarnog instituta
u Zagrebu 0960.) te pokretanjem časopisa Sociologije sela 1963. godine, i s
neznatnim odstupanjima traju sve do danas. O društveno-ekonomskim promjenama
i procesima u seoskom prostoru u ta četiri desetljeća objavljeno je više od pedesetak
raznih bibliografija od čega 29 ili više od polovice u časopisu Sociologija sela.
Sve su one »pionirske« za obrađena područja, znatna ih većina čini temeljite baze
podataka, a najčešće su ih radili sami znanstvenici-bibliografi (pretežito u Institutu
za društvena istraživanja Sveučilišta u Zagrebu) kao sondažu istraživanjima ili na
kraju istraživanja. Časopis je tome poklanjao stalnu pozornost i poticao bibliografsku
obradu svakog iole temeljitije istraženog problema. S obzirom da su bibliografije
pokazatelji obrađenosti znanstvenih područja te polazišta i pretpostavke znanstvenoistraživačkom
radu, autorica zaključuje da je takvo djelovanje časopisa Sociologija
sela bilo ključan uvjet razvoju ruralnosociologijskih, agrarnoekonomskih i
srodnih interdisciplinarnih istraživanja sela i agrara u Hrvatskoj i bivšoj Jugoslaviji.
Korelaciju bibliografskih istraživanja i teorijskih i empirijskih istraživanja potvrdila je
cjelovitim pregledom objavljenih bibliografija, njihove tematske strukture i drugih
značajki.In this paper the author analyses the role that Sociologija sela (Rural Sociology) quarterly
has played in bibliographic researches into village and agriculture which have long tradition
in Croatia. Namely, bibliographic researches began in parallei with scientific researches
into village and agriculture in the early 1960s when the Institute of Agriculture in
Zagreb was founded (960) and the Sociologija sela periodical started in 1963 and - with
minor aberrations - they have been carried out ever since. During the period of four decades,
more than fifty different bibliographies on social-economic changes and processes
were published 29 of which - or more than a half - in the Sociologija sela quarterly. All of
them were »pioneering« ones in the area they treated, most of them make thorough data
bases, and most often they were made by the scientists-bibliographers themselves (mainly
in the Institute for Social Research of the University of Zagreb) either as the sondage of
their researches or at the end of the researches. The magazine has constantly paid attention
to it and has always encouraged bibliographic elaboration of each problem that was
even a little more thoroughly researched. Since the bibliographies are the indicators of the
extent of elaboration of a scientific area and the starting points and the prerequisite of the
scientific research work, the author concludes that this part of the Sociologija sela journal\u27s
activity was a cruciai condition for the development of the rural-sociological, agrarian-economic
and congenial interdisciplinary researches of the village and agriculture in Croatia
and former Yugoslavia. The integrated account of published bibliographies, the ir thematic
structure and other characteristics proves the co-rei ati on between the bibliographic researches
and the theoretical and empiric ones
