The concept of nature protection on the territory of Republic of Serbia has a long tradition, which has been accompanied by a number of legislative regulations, adopted in the period from 1930 to present. The first regulation on nature protection dates back as far as XIV century, whereas the first regulation in modern history was introduced in 1930. More than ten laws, directly relating to establishment of new protected areas, as well as a number of indirect legal regulations fostering this activity, have been passed since that time. The main objective of this paper is the analysis of the trend in establishment of protected areas from 1948 to present, through several observed periods, with a view to obtaining an insight into the extent of impact the laws had on establishment of new protected areas in those periods. Furthermore, the paper analyses all legal and sub-legal regulations adopted in those periods. The study data have been collected by means of a non-reactive method. The studies indicate that establishment of protected areas in the period from 1948 to present has followed a positive trend, and that this trend has been most intensive in the most recent period of observation, prompted by the legislation enacted in this period, increasing interest of institutions involved in this field and a growing need for sustainable management of certain areas, in conformity with the nature protection concept.
