“…In comparison to previous research in Croatia, the results might indicate more positive attitudes towards immigrant workers. For example, Čačić-Kumpes, Gregurović and Kumpes (2012) in the research of attitudes toward foreign workers on a representative sample of Croatian citizens, report on an overall exclusionary attitude of Croatian citizens towards the (potential) arrival of immigrant workers. However, since our research included a convenience sample of respondents in eastern Croatia, it is impossible to generalise the findings and assume their transferability to other parts of Croatia.…”

“…According to Šram (2010) the most significant predictors of ethnocentrism are the perception of threat to national cultural identity posed by immigrants, and the perception of threat to national security posed by some ethnic minority groups, mainly Serbs in Croatia. Another research project emphasises that Croatian citizens perceive immigrant workers generally as a socio-economic and socio-cultural threat, expressing a high average social distance towards them (Čačić-Kumpes, Gregurović and Kumpes, 2012).…”

SUMMARYCroatia's accession to the EU has brought new challenges and issues in researching and analysing migration flows and trends as well as attitudes and perceptions of real and potential newcomers. The aim of this paper is to explore attitudes of the residents of the two most easterly Croatian counties towards two distinct categories of newcomers: immigrant workers and asylum seekers. The research was conducted shortly after Croatia's entry into the EU, in September 2013, and the presented data are a part of a larger survey that included various migration and ethnicity issues. The survey was applied on a convenience sample of 1 110 adult respondents in two counties: Osijek-Baranja and Vukovar-Srijem. Data were analysed in a series of multivariate procedures. Results indicated significant perceptions of immigrant workers within the dimension of cultural threat, along with the expression of a considerable degree of social distance towards them. Asylum seekers were further perceived as a security and economic threat. Within two analysed regression models, the effects on attitudes towards immigrant workers and asylum seekers were similar. Among the spectrum of socio-demographic variables, a statistically significant effect on both dependent variables came from age and political orientation, indicating that older and politically right-oriented respondents expressed more negative attitudes towards both groups. Among other socio-demographic variables, education was significant in predicting attitudes towards immigrant workers, while ethnicity was significant in predicting the attitudes towards asylum seekers. The second model analysed the effect of selected political attitudes and value orientations resulting in significant prediction of negative attitudes towards both groups by pronounced conservativism, support of aggression and submission, social-dominance, dominant submisMigracijske i etničke teme 32 (2016), 1: 91-122 92 sive authoritarianism and social alienation, rejecting socially oriented values and expressing greater interest in politics. Differences in prediction of dependent variables indicated that more liberal and better educated respondents had more positive attitudes towards immigrant workers, while Serbs (in comparison to Croats) and respondents rejecting anti-EU orientations had a more positive perception of asylum seekers. The results were compared to other relevant research, including the discussion of observed differences and similarities, and recommendations for further research.

Autori ovog rada i dalje smatraju da je ta distinkcija važna i da bi korištenje pojma kulturalni jasnije ocrtao ideju i korištenje pojma kulture u smislu tradicije kultur(al)nih studija.…”

Rad je posvećen nedovoljno istraženoj temi pojma identiteta i njegova odnosa prema društvenom poretku u knjigama za samopomoć. Najprije se analiziraju teorijski čimbenici za koje se može pretpostaviti da su utjecali na oblikovanje pojma identiteta u knjigama za samopomoć. Identitet o kojem one govore odnosi se na identitet koji je moguće promijeniti, odnosno poboljšati, otkriti, učvrstiti i ostvariti. On je određen manjkom što ga knjige za samopomoć nastoje nadoknaditi kroz procese samoostvarenja nazvane »alatima za postizanje sreće«. Uz odnos knjiga za samopomoć prema identitetu na individualnoj razini potom se analizira odnos identiteta u knjigama za samopomoć prema društvu, odnosno društvenom poretku, gdje se uz pomoć sociološkog i kulturnokritičkog pristupa analizira mogući doprinos knjiga za samopomoć društvenoj promjeni. Pritom se postavlja pitanje može li identitet što ga zagovaraju knjige za samopomoć osposobiti pojedince za aktivnu društvenu participaciju. To se promatra kroz dva dominantna stava unutar kulturne, kritičke i sociološke analize knjiga za samopomoć -jedan koji tvrdi da se proklamiranom težnjom k individualnoj sreći zapravo postiže tek održavanje statusa quo i drugi, koji govori da takve knjige mogu biti katalizator društvene promjene. Objašnjava se to pogledom prema kojem promjena na individualnom planu dovodi do promjene u širem društvenom prostoru. Zaključuje se da se identiteti neprestano nalaze u procesu transformacije, što omogućuje istodobnu podčinjenost društvenom poretku, no i otpor prema njemu.

“…In going there I wanted, first of all, to study the reactions of the local population to the refugee situation and establish if they were inclined to perceive the refugees as an economic, social and cultural threat as mentioned in quantitatively (Čačić-Kumpes, Gregurović and Kumpes, 2012;Župarić-Iljić and Gregurović, 2013; see Župarić-Iljić 2013 for a review of those studies), but also qualitatively (ethnographically) based studies (Pozniak and Petrović, 2014). I have dealt with that aspect of the issue in another article (Čapo, 2015).…”

SUMMARYThe article analyses certain aspects of the exceptional migration process unfolding in Europe from the middle of September to the beginning of November, 2015. It focuses on analysis of managing that migration in Croatia through the presentation of the functioning of the reception (and transit) centre at Opatovac. A qualitative ethnographic and anthropological research approach has been applied. The ethnographic perspective offers a complex view of responses to the events, pointing out the paradoxes in refugee reception and transit migration management in Croatia. It is established that there are constant contradictions contained in the nexus of security and humanitarian demands in the migration process management, these largely coming to the fore because of a lack of international co-operation and a firm stance and common policy on the part of the EU. In that way, the EU has contributed to the deepening of the humanitarian migration crisis, but also demonstrated its deep value crisis.
