Abstract

Cilj ovog diplomskog rada bio je pobliže opisati slobodu govora i ukazati na njezinu važnost u visokom obrazovanju te istraživanjem utvrditi i opisati stavove, mišljenja i perspektive studenata o slobodi govora u visokome obrazovanju. Rad se sastoji od teorijskog dijela koji obuhvaća pojam slobode govora te njoj bliske i povezane pojmove, zakonske regulative koje ju oblikuju, njezino značenje u visokom obrazovanju, odnos slobode govora i akademske slobode te slobodu govora kao poprište sukoba između liberalnoga i konzervativnoga gledišta. Drugim dijelom rada obuhvaćen je istraživački dio u kojemu se putem anketnog upitnika ispitala perspektiva studenata odabranih fakulteta o slobodi govora u visokome obrazovanju. Rezultati su pokazali da se studenti generalno osjećaju slobodno dijeliti svoje ideje i mišljenja na fakultetu, iako je vidljiva nešto niža razina osjećaja slobode na predavanjima u usporedbi sa slobodom koju studenti osjećaju u vremenu koje provode na fakultetu izvan predavanja. Što se tiče reakcija studenata na izjave njihovih kolega, vidljiva je tendencija izbjegavanja konflikta ili kontroverznih tema. Dolasci gostiju predavača na fakultet pokazali su se veoma važnima za iskustvo studiranja, prema mišljenju studenata. Kada je riječ o govoru mržnje, gotovo polovica ispitanika definirala ga je kao "moćan i negativan govor koji nanosi štetu drugome".

Abstract (english)

The aim of this thesis was to provide a closer description of freedom of speech and to highlight its importance in higher education, as well as to investigate and describe the attitudes, opinions, and perspectives of students on freedom of speech in higher education through research. The thesis consists of a theoretical part that encompasses the concept of freedom of speech and closely related notions, legal regulations shaping it, its significance for higher education, the relationship between freedom of speech and academic freedom and freedom of speech as a battleground between liberal and conservative perspectives. The second part of the thesis includes a research section in which the perspective of students from selected faculties on freedom of speech in higher education was examined through a questionnaire survey. The results showed that students generally feel free to share their ideas and opinions at the university, although there is a slightly lower level of freedom felt during lectures compared to the freedom students experience during their time spent at the university outside of lectures. Regarding students' reactions to their peers' statements, there is a tendency to avoid conflict or controversial topics. Guest lectures at the university have proven to be very important for students' learning experiences, according to students' opinions. As for hate speech, almost half of the respondents defined it as "powerful and negative speech that harms others".
