Sažetak
In the rapid development of the world, it is essential to know how many people are coping with the rapid changes of the 21st century. This paper examines the relationships between European public interest in, knowledge of, and attitudes towards science and technology. Since science and technology are development drivers, it is essential to know how much ‘ordinary citizens’ value them. Developing science and innovation is a central priority for the European Union. Research and innovation analyse science and technology since they are closely related. The assumption is that the attitudes of European citizens towards science and technology are positive, and the same is examined by the 2021 Eurobarometer questionnaire that will be addressed in this paper. This paper’s main objective is to analyse public opinion towards science and technology and how it differs from one country to another in the European Union. Moreover, to analyse public opinion towards science and technology, the authors will examine the Special Eurobarometer 516 with 26827 respondents from 27 countries in the EU. This Special Eurobarometer provides an insight into perceptions of science and technology and covers different topics (knowledge about science and technology, views on the impacts of science and technology, views on governance of science and technology, and others). Univariate and bivariate statistical methods will be used to represent the results of the conducted analysis.
