About article:
Non-Participation of Survey Respondents: Sexual and Bodily Otherness on the Margin of Public Interest. The paper presents a non-conventional approach to non/participation in survey-respondents’ behaviour. The topic of the analysis is attitudes to certain minorities in the population – sexual minorities, people with body and mental handicap. These sexual and bodily forms of otherness are being discussed in the conceptual framework of cultural and intimate citizenship. Empirical data indicate a significantly higher incidence of respondents’ refusal to answer questions concerning conditions, chances and needs of citizens with above mentioned otherness – as compared to assessing conditions of other minorities; simultaneously, claims for help from the society are significantly less acknowledged for these groups. A demographic profile of the most frequently „refusing“ respondents is characteristic by certain education, age and residence size. Results are discussed in the context of the overall value-background in Slovakia, its political development, and current discourses on sexual and bodily otherness.
