摘要：The work analyses the profiling of the Croatian political scene equally on the descriptive and structural levels. From a probability sample of 1248 citizens, 531 possible voters of the strongest Croatian political parties were selected (HDZ, SDP, HSS, HNS and HSP), which were then by means of discriminative analysis compared with regard to the represented social attitudes (ideological profile) and sociodemographic characteristics. The results indicate that the connection between ideological and status determinants on the one hand and voting intentions on the other, even more than a decade after introducing the multi-party system in Croatia, is relatively modest, which speaks in support of the hypothesis on the unstable structure of the electorate, wherefore the decision of the individual resides to a greater extent in the specific, and less in global attitudes. Parties, according to their attitudes and social features characteristic of their own electorate, can only be roughly divided one from the other, mostly based on a unified ideological dimension, the continuum conservative – liberal, on one end of which are the voters of HDZ, HSS and HSP, while on the other stand the voters of SDP and HNS.
