IN QUEST OF GOOD AMUSEMENT: RESEARCH OF NIGHT LIFE OF THE YOUTH IN THE SEASIDE COUNTIES AREA

Summary/Abstract: In this paper the authors present the results of sociological research, where they try to establish disco-club entertainment as an interesting and completely unexplored social phenomenon in Croatia. Methodologically and theoretically, the authors made on effort to pull out the research of young people's spare time from the context of functionalist-structuralist theories and from the already instrumentalized theoretical typologies in sociology. Therefore, they created a new research paradigm which united a quantitative and qualitative approach towards the disco phenomenon. The main purpose was to find an effective key for identifying newly established transformations of young people's night entertainment in seaside counties, where this research was field located. Combining methods of survey and semistructured interview, 1 502 young people were examined.
