 Welcome to Survey Serbia and Montenegro
The biggest difference in relation to the municipalities of Serbia Proper is in the net migration rates, which was positive in the majority of municipalities.
It is thus certain that the population of Serbia Proper has decreased (by –14,560 according to the old concept and by –140,633 according to the new one) and that of Vojvodina increased (by 84,890 and 61,797 respectively).
Moreover, the negative natural growth became the main characteristic of the population movement in almost all municipalities of Vojvodina (the number of deaths was larger than the number of live births in 43 municipalities).

 Southern Serbia: The second Kosovo?
Along with Kosovo, southern Serbia was one of the poorest regions in the former Yugoslavia.
As the status talks have begun in Vienna, diplomats warn of a backlash in Serbia where nationalists insist that the government must "declare Kosovo occupied territory" if it secedes with Western backing.
Yet to speculate whether they would use it as a mean for exerting political pressure on Belgrade in the long run in order to force the hand of Serbia to the independence of Kosovo would be indeed interesting.

 Serbia and Montenegro
This region, which encompasses the municipalities of Presevo, Bujanovac, and Medvedja, has the largest concentration of ethnic Albanians in Serbia proper and had been an area of significant ethnic unrest in 2000-01.

 Destroying Serbia
According to a representative sample of the population, an assessment was made in all the 16 Belgrade municipalities and 12 central municipalities of central Serbia and Vojvodina and it was established that in the period between 1990 and 1994, 320 thousand people of all education levels emigrated from the country.
Great social changes (indeed, shocks) which destroyed Serbia in the beginning of the nineties, starting with the war, nationalism, plunder of social property, inflation, emigration, all the way to total impoverishment of the population, were compared by the experts with the "organized chaos" registered in Germany at the time of nazi rule.
Sociological investigations show that "destructive" years in Serbia have deeply shaken the institution of the family as well.

KOSOVSKA MITROVICA, March 2 (Tanjug) - Acting President of the Association of Serb municipalities and settlements in Kosovo-Metohija Tomislav Zivkovic said on Sunday that the Association was not urging a division of Serbia's southern province and that it regarded Kosovo-Metohija an integral part of Serbia.
Speaking at a news conference in Kosovska Mitrovica, Zivkovic said that the declaration adopted in Kosovska Mitrovica on February 25, "was a result of the will of the people" and that it did not "infringe on UN Security Council Resolution 1244" on Kosovo-Metohija.
The twenty two Serb deputies have been greatly dissatisfied with the attitude of the Albanian majority ever since the Assembly started operating, and their concern only worsened when after boycotting the Assembly for three months they recently decided to return to it.

A peace plan proposed by the governments of Serbia and the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia has recently been rejected by civilian representatives of the ethnic Albanian community in the region, and by the UÇPMB, who want the three municipalities to be part of Kosovo, rather than Serbia.
