Summary/Abstract: he paper is formed like an analysis of a case based on the analysis of secondary literature and quality insights. In the paper are affirmed the theoretical concepts of the social production of the area, the region as a model of research for the defining of the developmental goal and the concept of a cluster. The discussion consists of three parts: an overview of the relevant literature, ananalys is of the existing socio-economic picture of Podgorje, and a developmental scenario of the Podgorje area in the framework of a cluster of experiences. In the first part of the paper the existing literature relevant to the understanding of the social perception of the area in the world and in Croatia is analysed. There then follows a socio-demographic analysis of the Podgorje micro-region which includes a diachronic overview of the Podgorje developmental picture, and an analysis of the socio-demographic dynamic in the area of Podgorje. In the final part of the paper a developmental scenario of Podgorje is formulated. With the systematic analysis of the developmental dynamic in Podgorje, a perspective is defined which transvalues the area of Podgorje from a "regional" environment into a cluster of vital significance for the further development first of all of Podgorje and then Lika-Senj, Primorje-Gorski Kotar and Zadar counties.
