Abstract

Ovaj rad bavi se tematikom prenamjene bivših vojnih prostora u prostore društveno-javne namjene te utjecajem takve prenamjene na zajednicu mladih, konkretno prenamjene bivše vojarne Taborec u najveći centar za mlade u Hrvatskoj Bunker u gradu Samoboru. Svrha rada upravo je analiza djelovanja ključnih političkih aktera u prenamjeni dijela bivše vojarne Taborec u Samoboru u najveći centar za mlade u Hrvatskoj te utjecaj te odluke na promjenu društvene infrastrukture namijenjene mladima i kvalitetu života u gradu. Naglasak je u istraživanju stavova, donošenju odluka i kontekstu, tj. kako je točno došlo do osnivanja Bunkera te kakav utjecaj to ima na grad i njegove stanovnike, ponajprije na mlade. U prikupljanju podataka korištena je kvalitativna metodologija – polustrukturirani intervjui sa predstavnicima bivše gradske uprave Grada Samobora, predstavnicima lokalnih medija te predstavnicima Savjeta mladih grada Samobora i mladih koji sudjeluju u radu Bunkera. Istraživanjem se utvrdilo da mladi Samoborci imaju na raspolaganju dovoljno mogućnosti vezano uz osnovno i srednjoškolsko obrazovanje te prostora za sport, rekreaciju i korištenje slobodnog vremena, ali nezadovoljstvo se pokazalo u nedostatku mogućnosti nastavka visokog obrazovanja u vlastitom gradu te u nepostojanju noćnog života zbog čega su mladi Samoborci primorani putovati u obližnje gradove, najčešće Zagreb. Vezano uz to istaknuo se i problem javnog prijevoza koji je neadekvatan za potrebe svih građana Samobora, ne samo mladih. Pokazalo se istraživanjem i to kako postoji strukturirani dijalog između gradskih vlasti grada Samobora i mladih Samoboraca, ali ne i između mladih Samoboraca samih. Najveći problem među mladim Samoborcima je društvena neaktivnost te mali broj aktivnih udruga mladih koje bi poticale ostale mlade na aktivnije djelovanje. Centar za mlade Bunker je dobar korak naprijed za poticanje aktivnosti mladih u Gradu Samoboru, no nije dovoljan sve dok se veći broj mladih ne uključi u njegovo djelovanje i pohađanje sadržaja i dok se rad centra ne prepusti mladima, što mladi koji djeluju unutar centra za mlade i zahtijevaju.

Abstract (english)

This thesis deals with the conversion of former military facilities into social and public spaces and the impact of such conversion on the youth community, specifically the conversion of the former barracks Taborec into the largest youth center in Croatia called “Bunker” in Samobor. The purpose of this thesis is to analyze the activities of key political actors in the conversion of part of the former Taborec barracks in Samobor into the largest youth center in Croatia and the impact of this decision on changing social infrastructure for young people and quality of life in the city. The emphasis is on researching attitudes, decision-making and context, i.e. how exactly the Bunker was founded and what impact it has on the city and its inhabitants, especially young people. Qualitative methodology was used in data collection - semi-structured interviews with representatives of the former city administration of the City of Samobor, representatives of local media and representatives of the Youth Council of the City of Samobor and young people participating in the work of Bunker Youth Center. The research found that young people from Samobor have enough opportunities related to primary and secondary education and adequate spaces for sports, recreation and leisure time, but dissatisfaction was shown in the lack of opportunities to continue higher education in their own city and in the lack of nightlife. Samobor residents are forced to travel to nearby cities, most often Zagreb. Related to this, the problem of public transport was highlighted, which is inadequate for the needs of all citizens of Samobor, not just young people. The research also showed that there is a structured dialogue between the city authorities of the city of Samobor and young people of Samobor, but not between the young people themselves. The biggest problem among young people in Samobor is social inactivity and a small number of active youth associations that would encourage other young people to be more active. Bunker Youth Center is a good step forward to encourage youth activities, but it is not enough until more young people are involved in its activities and content it offers and until the work of the center is left to young people, which young people working within the youth center require.
