14 In the municipality of Para in, the democratic option has won the elections, which is seen in the number of the municipal assembly members who are members of the parties inclined to democracy. Ruling coalition consists of the following parties: DS, SPO, G17 i SPS. A small number of municipal assembly members are the members of parties outside that coalition with the ruling party, that is DS. 2.4 History, tradition and cultural heritage The area of the municipality of Paracin is placed in the fertile valley of the river Velika Morava, offering, since prehistory to thesedays, very favourable living conditions. Various cultures that existed in this area has left their traces. Up-to-date archeological research on prehistoric localities Drenovac, Glavica, Glozdak, Striža as in many others, testify to people living in this area since VI millenijum BC till the arrival of the Romans. Moravian-Vardarian road, as one of the traffic artery of ancient Balkans, had a special merit in intensive cultural development. Probably in I century, the Romans, in their conquering attack on the Balkan Peninsula, in the period of transition from an old to the new era, occupy Pomoravlje region as well. Settlement called Sarmates, station on the Military Road, had been used for changing horses and for rest owing to geographic positioning, because along with the fact that it was the place of significant natural crossroads there was also the river Crnica as one of the most important factors for later establishing of bigger settlement. As a bigger trading centre, Sarmates had been mentioned for the last time by a Byzantin historian Prokopije in VI century. Prvi put naselje Para in had been mentioned for the first time in the Charter of Duke Lazar composed in XIV century, most probably in Square called»para in`s boat«was assumed to have been given the name after the boat-crossing across the water, presumably the river Crnica. Evlija elebija who travelled through Serbia in 1661 left the most detailed facts about Para in from that time. He describes Para in as a»strong small fortress on the river Crnica«. During the rule of Austria-Hungary in Serbia in 1717, Paracin was the seat of Resavian district. In the surroundings of Para in, the commander of the Turkish army - Hafiz- Pasha was deadly wounded. In the period between two wars Para in was, as before, an important craftsmanship and trading centre in Serbia. After the end of the national liberation War in socialistic Yugoslavia, Para in has for the first time in its turbulent history used its favourable geographic position and environmental opportunities for various economic development. The economy of the municipality is based on industry whose most important representatives are Serbian Glass factory, Cement factory in Novi Popovac and textile factory IVTKT Branko Krsmanovi.

The municipality of Paracin makes one fifth of the total land of the district which comprises 6 municipalities, with the difference that we have a slightly more land under forests. 4. Human resources 4.1 Population statistics (number of inhabitants and population growth) Table 8.

It can be explained by the inflow of refugees in one period when the war on the territory of former Yugoslavia broke out, and a great number of refugees escaped to Serbia. Along with the calming of the situation, it has come to the decrease in number of population due to the fact that a number of regugees have returned to thei homes while some went abroad. This trend of decrease of the population has been continued. 4.2 Population by type of neighborhood Table 10. Structure of population by type of neighborhood, 2002 District Serbia Number Share (%) Number Share (%) Number Share (%) Urban population , , ,36 Other population , ,64 Total population The greatest part of the population in the municipality of Para in consists of the population in villages. The same thing happens with the population in the district, while on the republic level there is a great number of population in urban areas of Serbia, the highest percentage belongs to the biggest cities in Serbia: Belgrade, Novi Sad, Niš. 4.3 Population events Table 11. Population events, 2006 District Serbia Newborn Newborn per 1000 of population 9,7 8,9 9,6 Deceased Deceased per 1000 of population 14,9 16,3 13,9 Birth rate Birth rate per 1000 of population -5,2-7,3-4,3 18

19 Birth rate in the municipality of Para in is negative because the number of newborn population is 1,5 times less than the number of deceased. Our municipality differs from the district and republic where the birth rate has also been negative but for several decades backwards in Serbia, which is so called '' white plague ''. Table 12.

There are double less women that gave birth to only one child, and the upsetting fact is that the same number of women havenever given birth. It is no wonder that we have a negative birth rate in the municipality Pracin, the district and on republic level as well. 4.4 Population by marital status Table 13.

The first factory in Para in, ftextile factory, began working in 1882, investors Czech factory owners Minh brothers. Para in became well-known industrial centre, the town of fabric, cement, glass and sweets. At the beginning of 90`s there has been a downfall of economic activities in industrial giants of municipality Para in which, in some cases, brought to bankrupcy while in others turned well or led to relativelly well-processed privatization. Private enterpreneurship comprises production of food, building material, paper packaging, constructing and telecommuniction services, tourist and catering service and trade. Policy of quality is implemented only in several enterprises. One of the ways of successful promotion of economy in the municiplity Paracin is certainly organizing of the traditional Small Economy Fair. Private capital takes an important place in the total capital of the municiplity. It is serviced by a great number of newly opened banks. In Para in municipality there are two registered associations of private entrepreneurs aiming at representing mutual interests, a joint promotion and common performance, as well as the Business Improving Zone - BID zone ''KORZO'' Para in. 40

There are 3 TS capacities 110/10 kv; 5 TS 35/10 kv; over 300 TS 10/0,4 K. Reliability of supplying with electric power of Para in`s demand will be insufficient till the construction of transformer substation of 400/110 kv in Majur, that is of importance for the region. After thatthere is requirement to powering Paracin with electric power with at least one power delivery line of 110 kv. In case bigger industrial zones were built, it is necessary to plan construction of bigger capacity delivery lines - TS 110/10(20)kV with the accompanying TS 10/0,4 kv. Other residential-business complexes can be supplied with the addition or extension of existing capcities in TS 110/10 or 35/10; construction of new 10 kv conduit; needed number of TS 10/0,4 kv and a low-voltage power supplying Tele-communication systems The municipality has been covered with the network of stable and mobile telephone lines.
