Abstract:
The survey "Current Problems of Slovakia 1999" is a part of the long-term research project "Political Culture
and Public Opinion" which has been underway since the beginning of the 1990's under the auspices of
various institutions (Social Analysis Centre, FOCUS Agency, Institute for Public Affairs IVO). Its aims
involve scrutinising and analysing the public's opinions on the changing political, social and economic
situation. The January 1999 research focuses on the evaluation of post-election developments in Slovakia, on
citizens' expectations after the 1998 parliamentary elections. It also deals with the citizens' trust in political
parties, institutions and personalities, electoral preferences, political stances and the potential of political
involvement. Moreover, it looks into the views on foreign policy, attitudes to the Roma minority and
Slovak-Hungarian relations. The research also deals wit the issue of how the citizens evaluate a historical
contribution of several personalities from the past periods. In addition, the respondents' media behaviour is
looked into within the basic socio-demographic characteristics. On the whole, the research has a vast
thematic span, offering a deep insight especially into political opinions and value systems of Slovakia's
population.
