Sažetak
Using a person-centred statistical approach (latent class analysis)
this study aims to categorise young citizens in Bosnia and
Herzegovina according to their citizenship norms, level of trust in
institutions and propensity toward political gender stereotyping.
We employed the data from The National Survey of Citizens’
Perceptions in Bosnia and Herzegovina (NSCP-B&H) 2017, which
documents the civic attitudes of a nationally representative sample
of adults (18þ) from Bosnia and Herzegovina. Since this study
focuses on the youth, we extracted a sub-sample of 831 young
individuals born between 1987 and 2001. Applying latent class
analysis, we derived two distinct classes of young citizens with a
unique set of beliefs, attitudes, and behaviours related to the role
of citizens in modern societies, namely ‘enthusiastic citizens’ and
‘outsiders’. The findings offer valuable insights for policy-makers
about the design and implementation of measures that aims to
foster active citizenship in the laggard transitional economy. Also,
it advances the research agenda on citizenship norms beyond the
Western European context.
