The Cultural Life of the Rural Youth: Research
Ružica Rosandić
Abstract
The basic purpose of this research is to
provide an impartial and systematic
description of the cultural life of the rural
youth and to discover (recognize the
social) the cultural circumstances that
play a decisive role in determining their
options for one or the other set of values,
and one or the other cultural practice. The
research is concentrated on discovering
the more marked forms and contents the
rural youth give to their complete social
and material life. We will observe them in
the context of changes in the inner
strukture and functions of the traditional
(parental) culture, and as influenced by the
options formed and established in the
broader social community. We are
interested in models and norms of cultural
life that are imposed on the rural youth
both as patterns of the traditional rural and
the dominant urban culture. The rural youth
must determine their attitude towards each
of them in their search for their own cultural
identity.
The main source of empirical material will
be supplied by combining a typologicalmorphological
approach.With regard to the
way in which the empirical material will be
gathered and its nature, qualitative
analysis will predominate over
quantitative.
