Sažetak

The article provides an analysis of youth values in Croatia in the socialist and
post-socialist periods, comparing them with values of older citizens and of
the political elite. The comparative analysis is based on data obtained through
four empirical investigations conducted in 1986, 1999 and 2004. The results
show that the predominant youth values remain stable, with minor oscillations
in rank. The aspects in which the young are different from the older citizens
are a broader variety of interests, a greater acceptance of post-materialistic
values, and a lesser acceptance of traditional and political values. It is also
shown that the optimism of youth is constantly on a high level, as well as
their satisfaction with life, which is more pronounced than with older citizens.
In all analyzed segments the political elite is noticeably different from both
above-mentioned groups. The overall findings confirm that the acceptance of
observed values varies depending on the social-political context, and the age
and social status of the respondents. Since the scope of the variations is limited,
the author concludes that this analysis gives one more confirmation of the
relative stability of values, and of the fact that they are transmitted from generation
to generation in a way which does not endanger social continuity.
