Sažetak
The numbers of regional researches of overall population and especially of young
population on democratization processes and association with European Union have
been increased recently. There is a wide consensus that young population is one of the
most important parts of overall social capital. Contemporary approach to the social capital
highlights specific importance of students, as an integral part of young generation,
assigning them with a status of a crucial social resource. Considering that, students’ participation
is extremely important in building of their one but also of overall social capital
of the community. The main goals of this research are to determine the level of students
support for Euro-integration process as well as their expectations from EU integration. The
research was conducted on a sample of 200 students from the four biggest faculties at the
University of Mostar. Results indicate low political interest and participation of youth, but
also relatively high support for European integration. According to the results, youth give
priority to the solving of economic problems trough the integration process. Also, they
express realistic and skeptical dimensions of attitudes in the expectations that integration
will solve the biggest problems that country deals with.
