Abstract

U ovom su radu predstavljeni rezultati analize sadržaja koji pokazuju kako se izvještava o manjinama u dvije hrvatske regionalne novine, Glasu Istre i Glasu Slavonije – dnevnim listovima regija, koje su za vrijeme Domovinskog rata u Hrvatskoj devedesetih godina, bile dijametralno suprotne. Slavonija je bila regija koju je rat najviše pogodio, dok je Istra bila regija koju je rat ''zaobišao''. Među ostalim, željelo se istražiti osjećaju li se i dalje posljedice Domovinskog rata kad je riječ o pisanju o manjinama te o kojim se manjinama najviše piše i na koji način. Za potrebe ovog rada provedeno je istraživanje u razdoblju od1. veljače do 29. prosinca 2015. godine. Glavni cilj istraživanja bio je istražiti predstavljenost nacionalnih manjina te utvrditi specifičnosti i razlike u izvještavanju o manjinama u člancima istraživanih novina. Rezultati su pokazali da ne postoje značajne razlike u izvještavanju o manjinama u navedenim listovima. U obje novine prevladavaju kulturne teme, informativni tip članka i naslova sa neutralnom općom vrijednosnom orijentacijom. Međutim, u Glasu Slavonije uočljiva je zastupljenost tema vezanih uz Domovinski rat i to prvenstveno u vidu obljetnica i suđenja za ratne zločine sa srpskom manjinom u fokusu, dok se u Glasu Istre takvi članci vrlo rijetko pojavljuju. Tamo prevladavaju kulturne teme sa fokusom na talijansku nacionalnu manjinu, bez upotrebe govora mržnje i netrepeljivosti prema pojedinoj manjini. Slika manjina stvorena u medijima od iznimne je važnosti za same manjine, njihovo formiranje i održavanje identiteta, ali isto tako ona utječe na stavove većinskog naroda prema pripadnicima manjina. Mediji mogu doprinijeti razvoju tolerancije i sloge u zajednici, odnosno nasuprot tome mogu i poticati stereotipizaciju manjinskih kultura te tako produbljivati jaz između manjine i većine. Od iznimne je važnosti da mediji na kvalitetan način izvještavaju o manjinama kako ne bi poticali predrasude većinske prema manjinskim skupinama.

Abstract (english)

This paper presents the results of content analysis that show how minorities are reported in two Croatian regional newspapers, Glasa Istre and Glas Slavonije - the dailies of the regions that were diametrically opposed during the Homeland War in Croatia in the 1990s. Slavonia was the region most affected by war, while Istria was a region that the war "bypassed". Among other things, when it comes to writing about minorities, I wanted to investigate whether the consequences of the Homeland War are still felt, and which minorities are most represented in newspapers. For the purpose of this paper, a survey was conducted in the period from 1 February to 29 December 2015. The main aim of the research was to gain insight into the presence and representation of national minorities and to identify the specificities and differences in reporting on minorities in the articles of the investigated newspapers. The results have shown that there are no significant differences in the reporting of minorities in the above mentioned sheets. Both newspapers prevail over cultural themes, informative article type and titles with neutral general value orientation. However, in Glas Slavonije, there is an obvious representation of the topics related to the Homeland War, primarily in the form of anniversaries and war crimes trials with a Serb minority in focus, while in Glas Istre such articles rarely appear. There are dominant cultural themes with a focus on the Italian national minority, without the use of hate speech and intolerance towards a particular minority. The image of minorities created in the media is of great importance for the minorities themselves, their formation and maintenance of identity, but it also affects the attitudes of the majority towards members of minorities. Media can contribute to the development of tolerance and harmony in the community, or, conversely, they may also encourage the stereotyping of minority cultures, thus enhancing the gap between the minorities and the majority. It is of the utmost importance that the media report on minorities in a good way so as not to encourage the prejudices of the majority towards minority groups.
