Sažetak
This chapter explores the complexity of the construction of inner boundaries among adolescents in the period of post-conflict Croatia, describing adolescents' sense of belonging and alienation, by searching for the phenomena used in their ethnic identification process. Analysis of qualitative data shows that the sense of belongingness based on diverse ethnic indicators is a contested site filled with subjective interpretations of imposed social and political circumstances. The paper argues that a sense of belonging among adolescents can be drawn on individual interpretations of their migratory experience in relation to multidimensional cultural and social changes.
