Sažetak
The article presents results of several public opinion polls regarding the trust in public institution, particularly trust in Croatian Armed Forces. It has been shown that Army is traditionally among those institutions that public trusts the most. This is especially important in the situation where trust in public institutions deteriorates sharply, additionally complicating the process of democratization and stepping out of parochial society characterized by skepticism and low interpersonal trust. Therefore those rare institutions that public still does trust could serve as fundamentals on which collective mind will be directed toward new values. The need for more qualitative communication is being emphasized, above all communication with younger generations that are generally less impressed by traditional values and achievements from the past.
