Une vaste littérature a émergé les dernières années sur les transformations à l'œuvre dans les pays de l'Europe centrale et orientale suite à la chute des régimes communistes. La multiplication de ces recherches se justifie pleinement par l'ampleur des changements éthiques et idéologiques, en économie, dans le domaine juridique, au niveau social et politique, en matière de relations internationales. Le rythme des trans formations et leur résultat deviennent plus visibles à partir du moment où les pays de la région démarrent les négociations d'adhésion à l'Union européenne (UE). Le modèle imposé aux nouveaux candidats à l'élargissement a un grand impact sur les «domestic patterns», sur leurs politiques (policies) et leurs institutions (polities), cependant, un des aspects qui est plutôt ignoré dans la littérature de spécialité est l'impact de l'intégration européenne sur les «structures de représentation»3, sur les partis, les groupes d'intérêts, les systèmes politiques etc.

Associate Professor Emilia Mineva was an established university teacher and historian of philosophy. Her rich body of work encompasses a study of the heritage of philosophical ideas in the 19th century with an emphasis, but not exclusively, on studies of Marxist philosophy, intellectual history of anarchism, philosophical ethics, etc. The field of her scientific interest included topics from all areas of philosophical knowledge, which she summarized as an author, editor, translator, and compiler. The article traces the professional path of prof. E. Mineva, focusing on the important moments in the content of her philosophical works, and is dedicated to the 80th anniversary of her birth.

Obraćamo Vam se pismom u vezi s pitanjem od velike zabrinutosti. U entitetu Republika Srpska osuđeni počinioci i drugi koji su počinili zlodjela se po pravilu glorificiraju dok se preživjelima zabranjuje ili se energično odvraćaju od postavljanja spomen obilježja žrtvama. Ključno je, u smislu vladavine prava, restorativne pravde i pomirenja, braniti ljudsko pravo na istinu 1 i ljudsko pravo na memorijalizaciju.

We are writing to express our concern about recent statements by Gabriel Escobar, US Special Envoy to the Western Balkans, related to electoral and constitutional reform in Bosnia and Herzegovina. With his remarks, Mr. Escobar essentially condemned Bosnia’s citizens to a future of ethnic divisions, discrimination, persecution, and human rights violations.

Both the world’s and European literature does not sufficiently discuss the topic of media representations of emotions. There are ongoing disputes whether media representations of emotions should be treated as a new paradigm, meta-process, communication space, social phenomenon or research program. Peter Lunt and Sonia Livingstone, in their critical appraisal of the concept made by Stig Hjarvard, David Deacon and James Stanyer, Andreas Hepp, Stig Hjarvard, Knut Lundby, postulate that the umbrella term “mediatisation” covers too many different theories and studies, bound only by a fascination with the media and their influence on social and private life, rather than by a fully-fledged theory and methodology.

The publication examines several lexical and stylistic fragments, which are fundamental for deciphering the linguistic handwriting of the understudied talented hymnwriter and storyteller eonomost Dimitar Petkanov, brother of the famous writer Konstantin Petkanov. The source of the excerpted material are volume 2 (April – June) and volume 4 (October – December) of the hagiographic tetralogy„In the year of our Lord“, written until 1956 and published by the author’s heirs in 2016 – 2017. An illustrative text has also been isolated from the poetry collection„Solar Songs“ and the autobiography “A Book about My Brother”. The purpose of the study is to highlight the lexical and stylistic methods which the original lyrical excerpts created by the poet are constructed. The three aspects analyzed are: the poetic vocabulary, the rhetorical tropes and figures used; sixteen of the occasional units; six of the author's key concepts (God, rapture, health, honey, light, darkness).

Neoliberalism influences are evident in the editorial practices of many high-ranking scholarly journals. Given the importance that journals have in tenured/tenured-track academics’ careers, they are an important arena to analyse and in which to implement best practices. I argue that Shari Stenberg’s (2015) concept of feminist repurposing can be used to make visible the impacts of neoliberal practices and also helps to disrupt them by enacting different alternatives in the university system, of which scholarly journals are a part. In order to illustrate what a feminist ethics of editing would look like, I analyse the feminist-inspired practices of Computers and Composition’s editorial staff. Drawing on published interviews and survey I administered, I show how feminist repurposing editorial roles from gatekeeper to colleague and mentor have beneficial impacts on the scholarship produced.

In this article, which serves as an introduction to a special issue on humour and the publicsphere, we argue that humour has become increasingly central to public discourse in the 21stcentury, and that this necessitates a rethinking of the relationship between humour and thepublic sphere in contemporary democracies. In the article, we bring together the dispersedacademic literature on humour and the public sphere, and show how humour and comedyscholars have engaged with the long-standing academic debate around this contested concept,which was coined by Jürgen Habermas in 1962. We also introduce the eleven contributions tothis special issue and situate them within this ongoing debate.
