IN CROATIAN: Ovaj je prilog analiza nekih dimenzija odnosa mladih u Hrvatskoj prema ljudskim pravima. Analiza se temelji na rezultatima empirijskog istraživanja provedenog 1999. godine na reprezentativnom uzorku od 1.700 ispitanika u dobi od 15 do 29 godina. Rezultati istraživanja pokazali su da ljudska prava i slobode velikoj većini mladih znače vrlo važnu opću vrednotu. Kad je riječ o ostvarivanju ljudskih prava i sloboda kao političkog cilja, potpora mladih je upola manja, a što je djelomice posljedica pritiska drugih velikih problema čije se rješavanje nameće kao prioritetno. Najveće je nesuglasje utvrđeno u percepciji poštivanja ljudskih prava i sloboda u Hrvatskoj jer su se mladi ravnomjerno podijelili na zadovoljne i nezadovoljne, uz četvrtinu onih koji ne mogu procijeniti status ljudskih prava u nas. Mladi, naposljetku, ocjenjuju da je doprinos promatranih institucija vlasti i civilnih udruga ostvarivanju ljudskih prava relativno zadovoljavajući. Nalazi potvrduju prevladavajući utjecaj političkog opredjeljenja (posredovanog stranačkom preferencijom) na oblikovanje stavova spram ljudskih prava i sloboda. Pritom se mladi jasno dijele u dvije podskupine: na jednom su polu pristaše stranaka socijaldemokratske i liberalne provenijencije, uglavnom iz viših društvenih slojeva, koji su bili kritički raspoloženi prema ostvarenosti ljudskih prava u Hrvatskoj i odgovornost za to pripisuju institucijama vlasti (istodobno percipirajući pozitivan doprinos civilno-opozicijskog sektora), a na drugom polu simpatizeri desnih političkih stranaka, najčešće iz nižih socijalnih slojeva, koji su uglavnom bili zadovoljni poštivanjem ljudskih prava i ujedno pozitivno vrednovali doprinos institucija vlasti. --- IN ENGLISH: This paper analyzes certain dimensions of the relation of Croatian youth towards human rights. The analysis is based on the results of an empirical research conducted in 1999 on a representative sample of 1700 young people, aged 15 to 29, from the entire Croatian territory. The results point to the fact that human rights and freedoms represent a very significant social value for the greater part of the young. When looking at the realization of human rights and freedoms as a political goal, the support of the youth is twice smaller, which is partially the effect of the pressure caused by same other great problems, the solution of which is of a higher priority. The greatest dissent was registered in regards of the perception of the respect for human rights and freedoms in Croatia, because the young people had evenly split into the satisfied and the dissatisfied, with a quarter of those which can not evaluate the status of human rights in our country. Finally, the young estimate that the contribution of the observed institutions of government and civil society organizations to the realization of human rights is relatively satisfactory. The obtained point to the dominant influence of political orientation (mediated through party preference) on the formation of the young people's attitudes toward human rights and freedoms. At that, there are two clearly defined subgroups of youth: on the one side, there are the supporters of the socio-democratic and liberal parties, mostly from higher social background, which were more critically disposed toward the realization of human rights in Croatia and addressed the responsibility for that conditions to the institutions of government (perceiving, at the same time, the positive contribution of the civil society-opposition sector), on the other side, there are the sympathizers of right-wing political parties, coming most often from lower social background, which were mostly satisfied by the respect for human rights and, at the same time, thought the contribution of the institutions of government has been positive.
