Sažetak
Religious freedom is one of the oldest, fundamental and inviolable human rights. At the same time, religious freedom, as a human right, is a multidimensional right that protects the individual and the collective dimension of freedom (forum internum and forum externum). Starting from the perspective of the social teaching of the church, the theoretical part of the paper shows religious freedom as a multidimensional human right and provides insight into the relationship between the Catholic Church and religious freedom through history. The empirical part of this paper is based on the Croatian research »Religija i ljudska prava« (»Religion and Human Rights«) (2014), which was conducted within the scope of the international empirical research program »Religion and Human Rights« (2012-2019).
Based on the mentioned research, this paper explores the connection of religiosity, attitudes and experiences of religious freedom (forum internum and forum externum) among young people in Croatia declared as religious at the age of 17 to 19, most of whom are Catholics. The results of the empirical analysis (multiple regression analysis) show that the predictors of religiosity have an impact on the attitudes and experiences of young people in Croatia declared as religious as regards religious freedom, in both of its dimensions.
