Sažetak
Combining a quantitative and qualitative research approach, this study examines forms of
cultural participation and various forms of cultural transmission among young people. The
quantitative part of the research is based on a survey of 2,148 Year 2 and Year 3 pupils at 28
Croatian secondary schools (aged 15-17), while the qualitative part involves 60 semi-structured
interviews with pupils and nine with their teachers. Twenty three in-depth interviews
with young people (aged 18-26) and their elders (fathers/mothers, grandfathers/grandmothers)
were also conducted in nine families. This research showed that young people classify
cultural activities into high culture, popular online culture, and popular music culture. The
adolescents showed limited interest in high and traditional culture, preferring popular culture
through online content or listening to music instead. Social status explains cultural participation
of any kind to a very limited extent, which brings into question theoretical assumptions
on the reproduction of high culture. Although parental cultural participation is still important
to child participation in the studied age group, its strength and influence weakens and gives
way to that of peers, who become the main agent of socialisation in secondary-school-aged
children. We can thus conclude that adolescent cultural participation is dominated by popular
culture, which adolescents consume mainly with and under the influence of their peers.
