Abstract

Uloga grupe u životu pojedinaca nedvojbeno je velika i utječe na gotovo sve aspekte njegovog života. Grupni narativni predstavljaju dominantnu grupnu priču o događajima i činjenicama socijalnog konteksta koja oblikuje i utječe na svakodnevni život pojedinaca te grupe. Takvi narativni omogućavaju pojedincima izgradnju i definiranje socijalnog identiteta unutar grupe. Kada se grupe nađu u međusobnom sukobu, značenje narativa postaje iznimno vaţno. Iskustvo rata i njegovih posljedica uzrokuje veću pristranost vlastitom narativu i veće negiranje suprotnog narativa. Cilj ovog rada bio je na uzorku hrvatskih studenata ustanoviti stupanj pristajanja uz dominantni grupni narativ o Domovinskom ratu u odnosu na ostale narative. Pritom je to pristajanje narativima promatrano kroz okvir ratnih iskustava i trauma te učestalosti razgovora o povijesnim temama s članovima obitelji i prijateljima. Rezultati su pokazali da je pristajanje nacionalnom narativu veće ako se razgovaralo s muškim članovima obitelji, nepristajanje suprotnom narativu je veće ako su veće ratne traume, dok su neutralniji stavovi bili povezani s razgovorom s prijateljima. Uz pomoć rezultata mogućim se pokazalo objasniti pristajanje uz nacionalni narativ, pristajanje neutralnom narativu te nepristajanje suprotnom narativu.

Abstract (english)

Group influence on an individual’s life has undoubtedly great impact and it affects almost all aspects of his or her life. A collective narrative represents a dominant story about group’s occurrences and facts regarding its social context, that shapes and influences an individual’s as well as group’s everyday life. These kinds of narratives enable individuals to form and define social identities within their group. When groups get into conflict, the meaning of narratives becomes extremely important. The experience of a war and its consequences cause a greater bias towards a personal narrative and negation of the opposing. The aim of this study was to determine the level of adherence to the dominant group narrative about the Homeland War in comparison to other narratives. The sample was consisted of Croatian students. Narrative adherences were observed through a framework of war experiences and trauma and the frequency of discussions on historical topics with family members and friends. The results showed that the national narrative adherence was higher if discussed with male family members, not belonging opposite narrative is greater in cases of greater war trauma, while neutral attitudes were associated with a conversation with friends. The study results proved the possibility to explain the national narrative adherence, as well as the adherence to the neutral narrative and refusal opposite narrative.
