Društvene i političke prilike u Bosni XVIII. stoljeća u presudnoj je mjeri i dugotrajno obilježio dugi Austrijsko-turski rat (1683.-1699.) sa svim strašnim posljedicama (ponajprije ratna uništavanja i seobe velikog broja stanovništva, a što je nužno proizvelo i promjenu socijalne i konfesionalne strukture stanovništva i s njom sve prateće pojave, doseljavanje u Bosnu muslimanskoga stanovništva s netom oslobođenih hrvatskih i ugarskih prostora, glad kao izravnu posljedicu rata, te brojne pohare kuge 1707., 1731., 1741., 1753., 1761., 1783., 1788., 1796. godine) koje su trajnije obilježile potonju povijest Bosne. Pustolovna i nadasve krvava avantura princa Eugena Savojskog povukla je za sobom brojno katoličko stanovništvo i franjevce kao njegove duhovne vođe u, od Turaka novooslobođene, hrvatske krajeve: Slavoniju i Dalmaciju. Kako će to kataklizmično smanjiti broj katoličkog življa, franjevaca i njihovih samostana u Bosni, to će s vremenom dovesti i do diobe redodržave Bosne Srebrene na mletački, turski i austrijski dio i bezmalo njezin nestanak, a za čiji će se opstanak s mnogo napora boriti i izboriti Filip Lastrić, koga stoga prozvaše, uz ocem bosanske historiografije, i ocem Provincije.

Analysis of the National Policies and Practices Dealing with Illegal Migration and Asylum Seekers

Author(s): Magdalena Lembovska / Language(s): English

The past decade has seen rapid changes in the migration flows in, from and through the countries of the Western Balkans. Regular migration is very important for the country’s socio-economic and demographic development; however, irregular migration also deserves special attention by the competent authorities. It is an issue of both state security and human security and is usually connected with serious and organized crime and the infringement of human rights. Following visa liberalization for the Western Balkans counties, the region is usually seen as the origin of illegal migration into the European Union. During the last few years all eyes were focused on asylum seekers from the Western Balkans countries. However, it is becoming increasingly difficult to ignore the fact that the region is also a transit area for migrants towards the EU. So far there has been little discussion about this phenomenon among researchers and policy makers, although the national and regional media are becoming more interested in the issue, bringing it closer to citizens.

Demographic Changes in the Kingdom of SCS and the Kingdom of Yugoslavia

Author(s): Milka Bubalo-Živković,Bojan Đerčan / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

Instead of the large Austro-Hungarian Monarchy, in 1918 new states were formed: Austria, Hungary, Czechoslovakia and the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes (SCS). A joined state, the Kingdom of SCS, was formed on important routes between Europe and Asia. On the other hand, this region was characterized by an undeveloped society which was behind English society by a century and a half in terms of industrial development. The Kingdom was divided into 33 regions, between 1923 and 1929, and since 1929 it was comprised of nine banovinas and the City of Belgrade with Zemun and Pancevo which formed a separate administrative unit. This area was 248.665 km2 big and there were 13.934.038 inhabitants in 1931. Based on available data, changes in sex-age structure of population, as well as changes in religion, native language and ethnic composition were analyzed in this paper. Demographic changes were a consequence of the political and economic events and traditional way of life, which influenced the migration trends that will be also addressed in this paper.

Changes in the National Structure of the Republic of Macedonia

Author(s): Mirjanka Madzević,Biljana Apostolovska Toshevska / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

In terms of demographic characteristics, the Republic of Macedonia features a heterogeneous ethnic structure that is a result of the socio-historical conditions and the demographic processes that took place in the past. The highlighted changes in the components of the number dynamics of the population, especially in the latter half of the twentieth century up to today, brought to serious changes in the very ethnic structure of the population. The decades of reduction of the overall natural increase among the Macedonians, with simultaneous emigration of the young population of working and reproductive age out of the country, resulted in slower growth rate of the Macedonians. At the same time, with the rest of the ethnic groups, the relative higher natural increase kept their inflow in the total population at a higher level. Here, the migrations and other additional factors should be added, which affected the participation of some of the minorities in the total population, and thus the changes in the ethnic composition. As a result of all of these processes, a permanent reduction of the share of Macedonians in the total population is evident, and on the other side there is an increase in the joint participation of the other nationalities. The stated changes are reflected on the future ethnic composition of the population in the Republic of Macedonia, and to some extent, other demographical structures.

Националне мањине у Србији 1945–1961: Политички значај

Author(s): Slobodan Selinić / Language(s): Serbian Publication Year: 0

According to the census of 1953, nearly a million and a half members of minorities lived in Serbia, i.e. about one-fifth of the population of Serbia. In Vojvodina, the minorities accounted for 38% of the population, and 71% in Kosovo and Metohija. The most significant minorities were: the Albanians, Hungarians, Romanians, Slovaks, Bulgarians and Turks. In Kosovo and Metohija, in 1948 the Albanians accounted for 68.4 % of the population, in 1953 – 64.9 % and in 1961 – 67 %. In Vojvodina, in 1953 the Hungarians accounted for 25.4%, the Slovaks 4.28 % and the Romanians 3.3% of the population. The Bulgarians were approximately 66 % of the population of six municipalities of the districts of Pirot and Vranje. Since, except for the Slovaks, other minorities largely collaborated with the fascist occupier during the Second World War, the liberation of the country in 1944/45 was met with discontent among many minorities, but the greatest resistance was offered by members of the Albanian minority during armed insurrection from December 1944 to February 1945. Even during the conflict between Yugoslavia and IB there were enemies of Yugoslavia among minorities, although the commitment to the IB had a mass character only with the Bulgarians. After normalization of relations between Yugoslavia and the countries of the Eastern bloc, the minorities were the subject of great interests of their home countries and diplomats in Yugoslavia. Impacts from the mother countries were spread on the minorities by correspondence, relationships with family, sending publications and promotional materials, visits, but the influences from the West also reached the minorities through the activities of the church, western missions in Yugoslavia or minority immigrants. Official government policy towards minorities was based on the principle of equality and assurance of the minority rights. The government was trying to ensure equality of minorities even in terms of their participation in government bodies, to ensure that as many minorities are affiliated in the SKJ (Communist League of Yugoslavia), SSRN (Socialist Alliance of Workers), AFŽ (Antifascist Women’s Front), the National Youth and other organizations, so that the minorities were represented in these organizations and in authorities generally in proportion to their share in the total population.

History and Geography of Public Health in Moscow Region

Author(s): Svetlana M. Malkhazova,Natalia V. Shartova / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

The article presents the results of a retrospective analysis of changes in population health (end of XIX – beginning of XXI centuries.), which was made for a more detailed and in-depth assessment of modern medical-geographical situation in the Moscow region (the beginning of the XXI century). Using comparative geographical and cartographic research methods analyzed indicators characterizing demographic characteristics, morbidity, pollution, socio-economic characteristics and the health care system. The changes in the population, transformed from a rural to urban, and its age structure. Changed components that regulate the natural movement of population, natural population growth in the region was replaced by natural wastage. In contrast to the current situation in the past, there was a very clear territorial confinement of the high prevalence rates for all pathologies to counties with developed industry and deterministic sources of environmental pollution. Currently, in the Moscow region such relationships are ambiguous, due to the total multifactorial influence on public health.

Губици партизанског покрета са територије Србије у устанку 1941. године

Author(s): Dragan Cvetković / Language(s): Serbian Publication Year: 0

The partly revised census “War Victims 1941–1945” from 1964 offers a possibility of analyzing the wartime losses of the population of Yugoslavia among which the killed members of the Partisan movement make up a considerable portion. Apart from general data about their losses it enables the insight into the make-up of the victims. Out of all partisans who had fallen in the uprising in Serbia, 88.53% originated from the territory of the occupied Serbia. The mass uprising in the occupied Serbia in 1941 caused large losses both among the insurgents and among civilians who died massively in reprisals. The partisan victims from the territory of the occupied Serbia make up 36.24% of partisan losses in Yugoslavia 1941, which is a large portion, since 27.95% of all Yugoslavia’s inhabitants lived in Serbia. The creation and defense of the liberated territory caused that 51.37% of the fallen partisans originated from Western and North-Western part of the occupied Serbia, although these regions were inhabited by 18.31% of the total population. Among other regions more affected were Central Serbia (14.43%) and the region of Belgrade (10.62%). One third of the partisan victims in the uprising (33.19%) lost their lives in November 1941. Quenching of the large-scale uprising in occupied Serbia caused the intensity of combats to decrease in this territory in 1942, so that the number of partisan victims also decreased 2.72 times. Among the partisans of Yugoslavia it made up 10.40% of total losses. Women made up 2.15% of the partisans who fell in the uprising. Most of them came from Western Serbia (35.09%) and Belgrade (24.56%). Almost one half of the victims (48.93%) were persons aged 15 to 24 whereas those older than 45 made up 3.53%. Although the largest part of the partisans who fell in the uprising were peasants (46.85%), in proportion to their share among the general population, the largest part of the partisan losses were made up of workers sympathizing with the revolutionary idea (22.64%), small businessmen (10.28%) and pupils and students (7.91%).

№167: The Importance of Russia’s Second-Generation Elite

Author(s): Bartosz Bieliszczuk,Agnieszka Legucka / Language(s): English

The appointment of Dmitry Patrushev, the son of the Secretary of the Security Council of Russia, to a ministerial post is a symbol of the ongoing shift of power to a younger generation of Russian leaders. A growing group of so-called “Kremlin Kids” hold significant, even though not visible, positions in the power structures, enabling Russian elites to maintain influence and control through personal and family links. Such a controlled transition will augment a political system that has the features of a kleptocracy and clan-like organisation. For Western countries, it is a signal that Russia’s strategic goal of enforcing the change in the European security system will be continued.

Népszámlálás 2011. Erdélyi magyar népesedés a XXI. század első évtizedében. Demográfiai és statisztikai elemzés

Author(s): Tamás Kiss,Gergő Barna / Language(s): Hungarian

The study is divided into two parts. The first part presents the results of the census in 2011 and the changes occurred between 2002 and 2011 in the case of ethnic minorities. The main objective of this part is to describe the evolution of Hungarians by region, type of settlement and spatial ethnic structure both in terms of absolute numbers and percentages. We sought to identify contextual factors that determine the evolution of Hungarians (in absolute numbers and percentage) without resorting to demographic analysis. Demographic analysis is presented in the second part of the study. Research done after the census in 2002 highlights a consolidated model, which can describe the demographic processes of ethnic minorities. Besides natural growth and net migration, the model also takes into account the phenomenon of assimilation and looks at changes in identification occurred from one census to the next.

Starosna dob: Novi osnov diskriminacije u Bosni i Hercegovini

Author(s): Kosana Beker / Language(s): Bosnian

Zakon o zabrani diskriminacije Bosne i Hercegovine izmijenjen je i dopunjen 2016. godine, a starosno doba je dodato kao lično svojstvo na osnovu kojeg je diskriminacija zabranjena. Zakon sadrži izuzetke od principa jednakog postupanja, odnosno, propisano je da se zakonske mjere i radnje neće smatrati diskriminatornim kada se svode na nepovoljno razlikovanje ili različito postupanje ako su zasnovane na objektivnoj i razumnoj opravdanosti, kao i ukoliko se time ostvaruje legitiman cilj i ako postoji razuman odnos proporcionalnosti između sredstava koja se koriste i cilja koji se nastoji realizovati. Između ostalog, propisano je da se određivanje maksimalnog starosnog doba najprimjerenijeg za prekid radnog odnosa i određivanje starosnog doba kao uslova za penzionisanje neće smatrati diskriminatornim. Ipak, ova problematika je znatno kompleksnija i u nastavku teksta se rasvjetljavaju neki od njenih ključnih aspekata.

Diskriminacija na osnovu invaliditeta u Bosni i Hercegovini: izazovi novih zakonskih rješenja

Author(s): Kosana Beker / Language(s): Bosnian

Zakon o zabrani diskriminacije Bosne i Hercegovine je izmijenjen i dopunjen 2016. godine tako što je eksplicitno propisano, pored ostalog, da je invaliditet jedno od ličnih svojstava na osnovu kojeg je diskriminacija zabranjena. Za razumijevanje diskriminacije lica sa invaliditetom i posljedično bolju zaštitu od diskriminacije važna je i dopuna koja se odnosi na krug lica koja su zaštićena od diskriminatornog postupanja. Definicija diskriminacije je dopunjena tako da je sada zabranjeno svako različito postupanje utemeljeno na stvarnim ili pretpostavljenim osnovama prema bilo kojem licu ili grupi lica i onima koji su sa njima u rodbinskoj ili drugoj vezi [...]. Ova dopuna je posebno važna za lica sa invaliditetom i njihove porodice jer nije rijetka situacija da su članovi porodice i druge bliske osobe lica sa invaliditetom izloženi tzv. asocijativnoj diskriminaciji, odnosno diskriminatornom postupanju ne na osnovu svog ličnog svojstva, već na osnovu ličnog svojstva druge osobe.

Assisting Media Democratization after Low-Intensity Conflict: The Case of Macedonia

Author(s): Tamara Dimitrijevska-Markoski,Zhidas Daskalovski / Language(s): English

The Republic of Macedonia is a landlocked country in Southeast Europe. According to the 2002 census the country has just above 2 million inhabitants, the majority being ethnic Macedonians (64%) and ethnic Albanians (25%), and the rest (11%) belonging to other ethnic groups such as Roma, Turks, Serbs, Vlachs, Bosniaks etc. Politically, it is a parliamentary democracy with an executive government, a unicameral legislator and a largely ceremonial president. Macedonia is a member of the United Nations, the Council of Europe and a candidate country of the European Union. In international relations the country is referred to as the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia (FYR of Macedonia) because of an unresolved dispute over the name with Greece, which has a region called Greek Macedonia bordering on the south of the country, and negates the right of Macedonia to name itself as such. In view of recent history, Macedonia is a successor state of the multi-ethnic Yugoslav Federation from which it declared its independence in 1991. Macedonia was not affected by the armed conflicts in the early 1990s when Yugoslavia fell apart but experienced unrest as a fallout from the Kosovo crisis after Albanian refugees from Kosovo fled to Macedonia. In the early 2000s, a short-lived armed conflict ensued between Macedonian forces and Albanians who sought autonomy for the mainly Albanian-populated area of Macedonia. The Ohrid Framework Agreement facilitated by the United States and the European Union reestablished peace and laid the foundations for a better representation of minorities and their rights in Macedonian politics.

Analiza potreba mladih

Author(s): Amra Omerbašić-Pihljak,Ivana Krstanović / Language(s): Bosnian

Analiza potreba mladih je dio implementacije projekta „Inicijativa za kreativni dijalog i edukaciju“ koji provodi TPO Fondacija. Cilj projekta je osnaživanje mladih i žena u lokalnim zajednicama, te njihovo učenje i usavršavanje tema o liderstvu, miru i ljudskim pravima kako bi se mogli zalagati za bolju socijalnu uključenost i ravnopravnost spolova. Učešće mladih u javnom životu predstavlja jedno od ključnih pitanja na kojem se radi u različitim institucijama i organizacijama na nivou Evrope. Posljednjih godina u Evropi su posebno intenzivirane aktivnosti u vezi s aktivnim građanstvom mladih upravo zato što mladi predstavljaju vrlo važan društveni kapital i resurs koji nije dovoljno aktiviran i uključen u planiranje i implementaciju važnih programa u toj oblasti kako na lokalnom tako i na globalnom nivou. U Bosni i Hercegovini se također već dugi niz godina odvija čitav niz programa za mlade u okviru različitih nevladinih organizacija, ali i dalje veliki broj mladih koji završavaju univerzitetsko obrazovanje nema priliku steći dodatna znanja i vještine potrebne na ekonomskom tržištu koje se velikom brzinom mijenja i postavlja nove zahtjeve pred mlade ljude. U nastojanju da prati potrebe zajednice, ali i pojedinaca, TPO Fondacija osigurava odgovarajuće edukativne materijale i treninge koji mogu pomoći mladim ženama i muškarcima da se što aktivnije uključe u društveno-politički rad u svojim lokalnim zajednicama, a i šire. Cilj analize potreba mladih je ispitivanje stavova, mišljenja i potreba mladih u vezi s liderstvom, komunikacijom, zapošljavanjem i radom, položajem mladih u društvu te drugim pitanjima, kako bi se stvorila osnova za izradu edukativnih materijala za mlade. Svrha izrade edukativnih materijala je poticanje mladih na aktivnije učešće u javnom životu zajednica i poboljšanje kvalitete njihovog života, kao i pružanje podrške mladima u razvoju njihovog znanja, vještina i stavova kako bi se mogli prilagoditi zahtjevima tržišta rada koji se neprestano mijenjaju te tako iskoristiti mogućnosti za zapošljavanje. U provedbi ovog ispitivanja su nam pomogle Lejla Mušić, docentica na Fakultetu političkih nauka Univerziteta u Sarajevu, docentica Merima Osmankadić i asistentica Amina Isanović Hadžiomerović s Filozofskog fakulteta Univerziteta u Sarajevu te Bojana Tomašević i drugi članovi Vijeća mladih općine Novo Sarajevo. Koristimo ovu priliku da im se zahvalimo na podršci i izdvojenom vremenu. Za ispitivanje stavova i potreba mladih, korištene su kvantitativna i kvalitativna istraživačka metoda. Uz upitnik, obavljeni su i grupni razgovori s mladima koji su popunili upitnik da se pobliže ispita kako razumiju određena pitanja, te da im se da mogućnost da iskažu svoje nedoumice i potrebe. Upitnik sadrži 17 pitanja kombiniranog tipa (otvorena i zatvorena pitanja). Prvi dio upitnika odnosio se na strukturiranje uzorka, pri čemu se vodilo računa o starosnoj strukturi ispitanika/ca, spolnoj strukturi, te o tome koja godina studija su ispitanici/ce odnosno da li su završili fakultet i koji. Razgovori s mladima su provedeni u grupama, neposredno nakon popunjavanja upitnika. Analiza je provedena u periodu od januara do marta 2014. godine. Svaki dio ove publikacije sačinjava tekstualni, tabelarni i grafički prikaz rezultata.

Droga do zrównoważonej gospodarki światowej

Author(s): / Language(s): Polish

Dynamiczne i głębokie zmiany w środowisku naturalnym naszej planety wymuszają przedefiniowanie dotychczasowych modeli konsumpcji i produkcji. W tym kontekście koncepcja zrównoważonego rozwoju staje się jedną z najważniejszych determinant kształtujących procesy gospodarcze oraz decyzje konsumentów, przedsiębiorstw i państw, a działania w tym zakresie muszą być podejmowane na poziomie globalnym. Szczególne miejsce w tym obszarze zajmuje Unia Europejska, która postawiła sobie za cel osiągnięcie neutralności klimatycznej do 2050 roku. Jest to zarówno wyzwanie, jak i szansa dla europejskiej gospodarki. To ambitne założenie ma zostać osiągnięte przez połączenie działań podejmowanych jednocześnie w obszarze transformacji cyfrowej i środowiskowej. Przedstawiona monografia stanowi próbę odpowiedzi na pytania, w jaki sposób stawić czoła najważniejszym przeobrażeniom związanym z transformacją cyfrowo-środowiskową oraz przemianami społecznymi i globalnymi.

Circular and return migration: What can Serbia learn from EU countries’ experiences?

Author(s): Ana Milinković,Jelena Žarković Rakić / Language(s): English

In the last decades, Serbia has been facing serious demographical challenges. The low rates of natural increase in population combined with the negative net migrations caused depopulation at the state level. This trend is the strongest in rural areas and less developed regions. Circular migration (repeated legal migration of the same person between two or more countries), whose importance has been increasing both globally and in Serbia in the past decade, could lead the way out of this problem. Although today, it is much easier to emigrate from Serbia than it used to be in the past – primarily due to the termination of sanctions and the democratisation process, and later, visa liberalisation and bilateral agreements with some European Union (EU) countries on the facilitated movement of labour, Serbia hopes for further procedure simplification, especially in the context of EU integration. As an EU candidate, Serbia should be ready for all the upcoming changes.
