Abstract

Abstract Background: The break-up of Yugoslavia has led to a transition from planned to the market economy. The main task of transition is privatization, which implies transferring most of the former social ownership to private individuals. The privatization process has marked the end of the twentieth century in Croatia and still carries many unanswered questions that have arisen because of the persistent need for privatization in the former, unconsolidated state. Objectives: The main objective of the paper is to make a comparison of respondents’ perception of Croatian privatization in 2018 compared to 1998. The aim is to investigate the similarities and changes in the attitudes of the Croats regarding the privatization processes that Croatia has engulfed in several stages. Methods/Approach: The survey was conducted on a sample of one hundred Croatian citizens about their perception of the privatization process in Croatia in 2018. Results of the survey in 1998 and 2018 were compared using the chi-square test. Results: The respondents in 2018 are convinced that the main goals of privatization have not been realized. Citizens’ distrust towards the system and institutions conducting the privatization process is greater in 2018 compared to 1998. Conclusions: Respondents perception of privatization has not changed significantly concerning the 20-year gap. Dissatisfaction due to the unfulfilled fundamental goals is still present, as is the need for revision of privatization.

克罗地亚的私有化:1998年和2018年克罗地亚公民的立场

背景:南斯拉夫的解体导致了计划经济向市场经济的转变。转型的主要任务是私有化，这意味着将大部分以前的社会所有权转移到私人手中。私有化进程标志着克罗地亚二十世纪的结束，并且仍然存在许多悬而未决的问题，这些问题是由于前一个未巩固的国家持续需要私有化而产生的。目的:本文的主要目的是比较受访者对2018年与1998年克罗地亚私有化的看法。目的是调查克罗地亚人对克罗地亚已经历几个阶段的私有化进程的态度的相似之处和变化。方法/途径:对100名克罗地亚公民的样本进行了调查，了解他们对2018年克罗地亚私有化进程的看法。1998年和2018年的调查结果采用卡方检验进行比较。结果:2018年被调查者确信私有化的主要目标尚未实现。与1998年相比，2018年国民对民营化制度和机构的不信任程度更高。结论:受访者对私有化的看法在20年的差距中没有显著变化。由于没有实现基本目标而产生的不满仍然存在，对私有化进行修订的必要性也是如此。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
