Sažetak
At the end of the twentieth century, Croatia exhibits many characteristics of a secular society. Labeled 'post-modern, ' this is reflected in features such as materialism, individualistic consumerism, fragmentation, erosion of the Judeo-Christian moral heritage, and severe pressure on the family as an institution. Moral relativism pervades the public debate and private conduct. Religious pluralism is coupled with political correctness and syncretism. There is cynicism about truth claims and authority is questioned. Within religious communities people became aware of tensions and conflict created by proselytism, which are still not solved on proper way.
