Abstract

Sport i politika u hrvatskom društveno-političkom kontekstu isprepliću se od osnutka Hrvatske kao samostalne nacije-države. Za razumijevanje odnosa sporta i politike na ovim prostorima, čini se interesantnim slučaj od prije dvadeset godina, kada je na Europskom košarkaškom prvenstvu 1995. ostvaren posljednji značajniji uspjeh nacionalne košarkaške vrste. Navedeni slučaj zahtjeva sustavniju sociološku razradu. Postojeće analize populističke su prirode i kao takve nedovoljne su za razumijevanje ove teme. Unatoč brojnim postignutim rezultatima, te važnoj ulozi košarke u širem društvenom kontekstu, gotovo da ne postoje istraživanja koja bi omogućila dublje razumijevanje navedene problematike.
Cilj ovog rada je objasniti odnos sporta i politike u konkretnom slučaju. Na osnovi relevantne literature, koristeći kvalitativne istraživačke metode: polu-strukturirane intervjue, analizu sadržaja i analizu diskursa, nastojat ćemo proširiti razumijevanje odnosa navedenih fenomena u hrvatskom kontekstu.

Abstract (english)

Sport and politics in the Croatian socio-political context are intertwined since the founding of Croatia as an independent nation-state. To understand the relations between sports and politics in the region, the case of European Basketball Championship 1995, when the national basketball team last achieved significant succes seems particulary interesting. This case demands systematic sociological research. Existing analyses have populist nature and as such are insufficient for understanding this topic. Despite many achievements and the important role of basketball in broader social context, there is almost no research that would enable deeper understanding of this subject.
The aim of this paper is to explain the relationship between sports and politics in this particular case. Based on relevant literature, using qualitative research methods: semi-structured interviews, content analysis and discourse analysis, we will try to expand the understanding of relationship of these phenomena in the Croatian context.
