Abstract: The occupational structure in the territory of South Baranja in the second half of the 18th century will be analysed on the basis of the data from population and settlement censuses conducted by the secular authorities and on the basis of entries made in records. The analysis will be limited to the Catholic population, which in the 18th century in South Baranja made up the majority. In the 18th century, South Baranja was divided between the Belje manor and the Darda manor and thus it is expected that the primary occupation of the most inhabitants was farming and those trade activities that were necessary in rural communities as well. The paper will identify the position of the farming population in terms of the right of free movement. Furthermore, the names of individual trades will be determined, as well as the manners in which they were recorded in historical sources, their distribution and frequency in individual settlements in view of the size and type of the settlement, and in view of the ethnic affiliation of the population. Moreover, attention will be brought to the occupations related to the administration and management of late feudal holdings.
