The Role of Traffic Technology Students Statements of Social Exploitation

This article reports on a sociological study of the opinions of traffic technology students (n = 1215) on the topic of exploitation. The authors first present different theoretical definitions of exploitation and the student understandings of those definitions. In the second part of the article, the authors present the results of empirical research undertaken in 1995-1996 of student opinions regarding the extent of exploitation in Slovenia and these are compared to the statements of traffic technology students. Results showed that statement of students do not differ much from the results of public opinion research regarding exploitation, nor from the statements of irregular students with long working experience. There were no substantial differences found between Slovene and Italian students. Traffic technology students are a group among full-time students who agree most with the statements that there is much exploitation and that it has been increasing.
