Abstract

As soon as it achieved its independence as a sovereign, internationally recognized state, Croatia declared its willingness to join the Euro-Atlantic integration. It refers in the first place to NATO and the EU. After the Croatian society experienced democratic changes, the West has intensified its contacts and took some concrete steps in order to facilitate accession of Croatia into Euro-Atlantic institutions. The public in Croatia doesn't know a great deal about advantages and disadvantages, which Croatia could have from its accession into Europe. Research conducted among undergraduate and postgraduate students at the Faculty of Political Science in Zagreb serves as an illustrative example of how much people in Croatia (don't) know about the European integration, its achievements and possibilities of Croatian membership.
