Abstract

This article aims to identify the determinants of youth readiness to engage in elite-challenging activities in Croatia. It argues that this form of civic engagement is influenced by an emancipatory set of values, on the one hand, and bonding and bridging social capital, on the other. The results show that both types of social capital have positive and significant influence on civic engagement of youth, whilst the set of emancipatory values has a limited role in this respect as well as socio-demographic characteristics. The analysis uses data from a survey conducted in 2013 on a representative sample of 2000 young people in Croatia (15–29 years old).
