Sažetak
This research combines the quantitative and qualitative research approach to study the presence of particular forms of cultural participation among youth and various patterns of cultural transmission. The data used for this presentation were collected in Croatia as a part of the CHIEF international scientific project (Cultural Heritage and Identities of Europe’s Future) in 2019 and 2020. The quantitative part of this research is based on a survey of 2, 147 year 2 and 3 students from 29 Croatian secondary schools, while the qualitative part contains 60 semi-structured interviews with students and 9 interviews with their teachers. In addition to this, 19 in-depth interviews were conducted with young people (between the age of 18 and 26) and older family members (mothers/fathers, grandparents) from 9 families. The survey showed that youth display highly limited interest in traditional forms of culture, including cultural participation related to history. The data collected through the semi-semi-structured interviews support these findings, showing that pupils have very modest, superficial knowledge of historical events, even recent ones. The data from the in-depth family interviews show that inter-generational knowledge transfer does take place, mostly reflected in the dichotomy of liberal and conservative world-view. However, both the quantitative and qualitative research suggest that the influence of schools and parents is very limited ; it also shows that adolescents are mostly shaped by interaction with their peers, avoiding traditional culture and an analytical approach to history, and instead indulging in pop culture and entertainment.
