Sažetak
In recent decades, scholarly interest in political participation has increased. It is evident that voting is only one of many ways in which voters can attempt to influence the course of politics. In democratic societies, various forms of political action are on the rise that represent alternatives to voting. In contrast to conventional political activities, unconventional political activities include less institutionalised and less time-consuming political activities that are not associated with a political party. The purpose of this study is to explain some factors influencing the intention to engage in unconventional political activities - political orientation and perceived political risk. It is assumed that voters with different political orientation (left or right) and voters with different levels of perceived risk have different intentions to participate in unconventional political activities. The research was conducted using a face-to-face survey on a sample of 658 respondents. Data were analysed using SPSS and the Amos programme was used for structural equation modelling. The results showed that voters with higher perceived risk and more liberal (i.e., politically left- leaning) voters have a stronger intention to participate in unconventional political activities
