Sažetak
Th e world ethos presents a new challenge at the end of the 20th and the beginning of the 21st century, which, as a “project”, attempts to form the postulations for the “ethos of the humankind”. The empirical research (2010; N=1008) on the probabilistic sample of the adult citizens of Croatia was conducted using two instruments: the instrument on the new world order and on the respect of the values of the world ethos in Croatia. Th e methods of descriptive (percentages, Pearson’s correlation) and multivariate statistics (factorial analysis under the GK criterion and the analysis of variance) were used in the analysis of data. The first part of the aper gives the overview of the research results on the acceptance of theses on the new world order, world and religious peace, dialogue and ethical consensus. The second part presents the perception
of the respect of world ethos values in Croatia: the principle of humanity; non-violence and respect for life; justice and solidarity; honesty and tolerance; and mutual esteem and partnership. In the final part the author summarizes the results of the statistic analysis and concludes that there is a high acceptance of the postulates of a more just world order (over 80% of the respondents). At the same time, only one fifth of the respondents (on average) think that these values are respected in Croatia. The respect of these values in Croatia indicates the acceptance of the values of the world ethos and, therefore, the author concludes that the world ethos is not present enough in Croatia.
