Abstract

Arhivi igraju ključnu ulogu u očuvanju kolektivnog pamćenja, čuvajući dokumente i zapise koji svjedoče o povijesnim događajima, kulturnim postignućima i svakodnevnom životu zajednica. Kao institucije koje prikupljaju, čuvaju i omogućuju pristup dokumentima povijesnog i društvenog značaja, arhivi su neophodni za istraživanje, edukaciju i očuvanje kulturne baštine. Njihova važnost se ogleda u sposobnosti pružanja autentičnih i pouzdanih informacija koje oblikuju naše razumijevanje prošlosti i utječu na donošenje odluka u sadašnjosti. Ovaj rad istražuje društvene i kulturne čimbenike koji oblikuju stavove prema Državnim arhivima i arhivskoj djelatnosti u Hrvatskoj. Cilj istraživanja je razumjeti kako različiti socijalni, kulturni i obrazovni faktori utječu na percepciju i korištenje arhivske građe. Rad obuhvaća povijesni pregled arhivske djelatnosti, ulogu arhiva u društvu te njihov značaj kao dijela kulturnog nasljeđa. Također, istraživanje razmatra percepciju institucija kulturnog nasljeđa i utjecaj spola, obrazovanja i dobi na stavove prema arhivima. Rezultati provedenog upitnika na N=200 ispitanika pokazuju važnost modernizacije arhiva, digitalizacije arhivske građe, te poboljšanje edukacije i informiranja javnosti o dostupnosti arhiva. Istraživanje zaključuje da je potrebno unaprijediti transparentnost i dostupnost informacija kako bi se povećala participacija i valorizacija arhiva u suvremenom društvu.

Abstract (english)

Archives play a crucial role in preserving the collective memory of society, safeguarding documents and records that testify to historical events, cultural achievements, and everyday life within communities. As institutions that collect, preserve, and provide access to documents of historical and social significance, archives are essential for research, education, and the preservation of cultural heritage. Their importance is reflected in their ability to provide authentic and reliable information that shapes our understanding of the past and influences decision-making in the present. This research investigates the social and cultural factors that shape attitudes toward State Archives and archival activities in Croatia. The aim of the research is to understand how various social, cultural, and educational factors impact the perception and use of archival material. The paper includes a historical overview of archival activities, the role of archives in society, and their significance as part of cultural heritage. It also examines the perception of heritage institutions and the influence of gender, education, and age on attitudes toward archives. Results from a survey of 200 respondents highlight the importance of modernizing archives, digitizing archival material, and improving public education and awareness about the availability of archives. The research concludes that enhancing transparency and accessibility of information is necessary to increase participation and valuation of archives in contemporary society.
