Author(s): Mehmet Seyfettin Erol,Abdurrahim Fahimi AYDIN / Language(s): Turkish Issue: 7/2005

After the 1st World War, the British government oriented its influence in the Southern Caucasus to sut up a Caucasian wall composed of the three regional countries, Azerbaijan, Armenia and Georgia, in order to stop the Bolshevik Russia and to separate the latter from Turkey.

"ŁAD POSTLIZBOŃSKI" W EUROPIE

"ŁAD POSTLIZBOŃSKI" W EUROPIE

Author(s): Piotr Nowak / Language(s): Polish Issue: 2/2017

The author of the article puts forward a thesis that the period in the international relations that came after the Cold War has already been completed and we are now in another one, to which he gives the name of the Post-Lisbon order. So far, in the discourse on the international relations it is called the post-Cold War order, without a clear distinction of its timeframe. The author, who presents a theoretical introduction of the definition of the international order which he perceives as a way of determining the relationship between international actors, who also presents the most important provisions of the Treaty of Lisbon and the New NATO Strategic Concept (adopted in Lisbon), called the new period a post-Lisbon order. By analyzing the presented problems the article constitutes an attempt to prove the thesis which was put forward at the beginning.

"The Application of the Analytical Hierarchy Process Model in the Process of Conflict Management"

Author(s): Nena Nenovska Gjorgjievska / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

The incitement and the occurrence of the conflicts, their escalation, ceasefire and de-escalation are processes which are continually appearing, lasting and resolving. Consequently, the conflicts usually pull migratory flows. Migration is an issue which nowadays is very present, and it needs to be resolved. The migration usually starts where conflicts arise. Having that in mind, the main concept in the paper is focused on the conflicts and the emergence of the migration flows. It also gives a suggestion how the conflicts can be resolved in the Middle East countries. The purpose of this research is to find out real reasons for appearance of migrations and most rational solutions for their solving. For doing that the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) method is applied. A short overview will be given of the main elements of the AHP method and how it is applied in the conflict resolution. AHP method is enforceable and leads to concrete recommendations for further conflict resolution. The results of the research will show that resolving the conflicts may contribute in suppression of the migration and it can also protect countries for further armed conflicts and unwanted migration flows.

The Perspective of Young Muslims in Kosovo on European Identity

Author(s): Friedrich Püttmann / Language(s): English Issue: 02/2016

Since the beginning of the integration process into the European Union a continuous discourse has evolved about what characterizes ‘Europe’ and whether there is a common ‘European identity’. Most recently, this discourse has tended to define the European ‘Self’ in contrast to a ‘foreign’ Muslim ‘Other’. The debate is taking place against the background of new Muslim arrivals in Europe. However, the presence of Muslim citizens in Europe is not a recent phenomenon. This empirical research paper explores the effects this discourse has had on the perspective of Muslim youths in Kosovo on European identity. Kosovo is seen as a European country with a centuries-old Muslim presence. It seeks to further ‘Europeanize’ itself in order to connect with the EU. By means of qualitative in-depth interviews with young practicing Muslims in Prishtina the paper reveals that the participants have not started to view ‘Europe’ in any negative way. Instead, they use their positive understanding of European identity which they associate with diversity and freedom of religion for Muslims. The respondents heavily criticize their own government for misunderstanding the concept as denoting ‘un-Muslim’, which leads to an oppression of practicing Muslims in Kosovo in light of the country’s attempt to ‘be European’.

"To nie my przekroczyliśmy granicę, to ona przecięła nas." Biopolityka europejskiego reżimu migracyjnego

"To nie my przekroczyliśmy granicę, to ona przecięła nas." Biopolityka europejskiego reżimu migracyjnego

Author(s): Łukasz Moll / Language(s): Polish Issue: 21/2016

This article reconceptualizes analytical tools suitable to theorizing the European migration regime by employing concepts developed by philosophers of biopolitics. By referring to border and migration studies, it diagnoses both the crisis of the traditional conceptualization of the border and the crisis of the post-Westphalian political order in Europe. Identifying the end of bordering practices as a result of the intertwining of sovereignty, territory, and population in the context of a neoliberal regime of capital accumulation, the article proposes to treat borders as productive apparatuses (dispositifs). While they support the desirable flows of people, they block the undesirable forms of circulation. In conclusion, the article argues that the co-existence of borderless spaces within the European Union with the arbitrary mechanisms of mobility control applied to non-EU migrants is impossible to maintain in the long run. Keeping the current status quo will result in the obliteration of the inside/outside division and a rupture in the strong link between borders and territory. In effect, the same apparatuses which aimed to make free mobility possible are becoming its main source of danger.

"Это утопия, это болото": жанры повествования о городе

"Это утопия, это болото": жанры повествования о городе

Author(s): Varvara Kobyshcha / Language(s): Russian Issue: 3/2015

Any researcher who works with local people in a small town soon finds a number of repeating topics, stories, symbols, characters, and attitudes. Together they create a generalized image that, to a greater or lesser degree, is shared by its inhabitants. In order to move beyond merely recording different forms of self-description and to use these data as instruments of explanation and comparative analysis, the author proposes a model for the genre analysis of such “local” narratives. This allows us to a) reveal links between the past (cultural memory), present (image), and future (expectations and scenarios) of a city; b) explain the cultural preconditions of observed collective and individual actions; and c) explain the specificity of the affective connection between citizens and their city. In the second part of the paper the author demonstrates some results of the application of this model, using two case studies: Myshkin (visited in 2013) and Kologriv (visited in 2010). The narratives of local inhabitants are structured according to the genres of ”progress” (development) and ”regress” (decay). The author is especially interested in how these genres constitute peculiar types of agency, as well as a repertoire of (im)possible actions.

(Dis)ordered bodies: gender and territorial planning in La Celia, Risaralda, Colombia

(Dis)ordered bodies: gender and territorial planning in La Celia, Risaralda, Colombia

Author(s): Juan Camilo Betancur Jaramillo / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

To question the relationships between body, gender and territory is essential to comprehend the territorialization processes. These have been studied from diverse points of view, counting the Feminist Geography among them, which has underlined the relevance of gender as a category that allows to explain the territory in function of problems, necessities, inequality’s origins and ways in which places are inhabited. Many international policies have raised questions about this topic, such as the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development in its 5th Development Objective and other national policies and plans. Nevertheless, the territorial ordering policies in Colombia have not questioned a heteronormative and patriarchal model of dwelling in the world, which is evidenced in the existence of Territorial Ordering and Development Plans that do not include gender analysis and thus ignore or even aggravate gender associated problems by replicating exclusionary and victimising viewpoints. Therefore, this document questions how women have been represented in territorial ordering policies in La Celia between 1999 and 2019, as well as their practical reflection in a local coffee grower women’s association. The data allow to explain how, amidst the male perspective of the municipal policies and the usage of the term gender to designate a vulnerable other, the women from Celianese Coffee Grower Women’s Association [AMCECAFE] try to subvert femininity stereotypes and boost their entrepreneurship in coffee growing. Furthermore, they make evident how for them femininity is a field in tension that defies the models of vulnerable woman, productive woman and reproductive woman that the policies represent.

(Im)mobility Subcontracted: Nesting Hierarchies, Uneven Distributions and the ‘Roma Inclusion’ Projects in Europe

(Im)mobility Subcontracted: Nesting Hierarchies, Uneven Distributions and the ‘Roma Inclusion’ Projects in Europe

Author(s): Jan Grill / Language(s): English Issue: 4/2020

This paper explores social mobilities and trajectories in relation to particular mechanisms of subcontracting and of unequal distribution of capitals in the emerging field of EU funded projects for poor and socially excluded populations in Europe. It discusses some of the struggles for possible mobilities and its limits amidst continuing production and reproduction of privileges, disadvantages and structural orders in these project-cum-policy worlds constraints. By examining a particular case of a large-scale and multi-sited project and other similar project schemes, described by some of its proponents as one of the most ‘participatory’ projects for Roma in Europe, the article illustrates particular mechanisms of power and knowledge reproduction that facilitates some kinds of mobilities while also reproducing certain constraints and limits on these possibilities (for some subjects and some social trajectories). It develops an ethnographic critique of situated and nesting hierarchies of management and brokerage leading to reproduction of particular setups, privileges, unequal economic distribution and (mis)recognitions of capitals, which allows for particular emergence of particular kinds of contested ‘expertise’ in the uneven field of so-called ‘Roma inclusion’.

Wrocław jako palimpsest

Author(s): Aleksandra Seń / Language(s): Polish Issue: 74/2021

The process of so called “degermanization” of Wrocław involved, among other things, removing traces of German history from the urban space by displacement of former residents, changing street names, introducing new symbols and erasing German-language signboards. Despite the communist historical policy in Wrocław, many examples of post-German traces in the urban space have survived. The article describes Wrocław as a palimpsest, a city of intertwined German and Polish records, where old layers are not removed, but only given new meanings. It refers to the project “Spod tynku patrzy Breslau” (From under the plaster Breslau gazes), which aims to conduct a social register of Germanlanguage epigrams in the urban space. It describes the changes in attitudes towards post-German heritage over time, especially after 1989

16. Yüzyılın Sonlarında Balkanlarda Bir Maden İşletmesi: Kamengrad Demir Madeni

16. Yüzyılın Sonlarında Balkanlarda Bir Maden İşletmesi: Kamengrad Demir Madeni

Author(s): Mehtap Çelik / Language(s): Turkish Issue: 2/2020

In this paper, the form of organization and management of iron facilities that were among the important resources of revenue for the Ottoman state treasury is aimed to be elaborated by focusing on a micro-scale geography. The number of studies concentrating on the issue of mining facilities is very limited amongst the studies focusing on the Ottoman economic history and conducted for the classical era. Hence, this study is important as a contribution to the Ottoman financial and administrative history. It is observed that the Ottoman Empire turning into an important power in the Anatolia and Balkans during the era of Fatih Sultan Mehmet captured almost all of the mining sites in these territories as it facilitated self-sufficiency policy of the Empire in terms of both financial and military concerns, and consequently tried to improve the legal status of mining sites by continuously issuing mining code of laws (kanunnâme) starting from the beginning of the classical era in order to keep the mining facilities under control and to prevent disruption in production. As it is known, Balkans was a region of rich silver, iron and copper ores. There were rich mines of iron in Bosnia, where the case study area is located, in addition to gold and silver mines. And one of these mines was Kamengrad iron mine that was put into operation towards the end of the 16th century. Kamengrad iron mine providing one of the important raw materials required in the Ottoman manufacturing system industry was operated under the control. The Empire acting sensitively in the protection of both the mines and reâyâ (the Ottoman subject class composed of mainly peasants and farmers) working in these mines took all the necessary precautions in order to sustain the production of iron in this mine without any interruption, and by doing so, tried to meet, in general, the army’s, and in particular nearby castles’ demand for cannonball ammunition.

Author(s): M. Yasin Taşkesenlioğlu,Muhammed Taşkesenligil / Language(s): Turkish Issue: 20/2020

The Caucasus, where the mountains extending from the Black Sea to the Caspian Sea, is almost divided into two parts, has been one of the expansion areas of Russia since the 18th century. Russia, which managed to dominate the entire Caucasus, including the South Caucasus region, which was called ZaCaucasia in the following century, not only politically and militarily, but also through scientific studies with the studies it has established within the Academy of Sciences, it has managed to create an inventory that concerns many disciplines, especially history, geography and sociology. Moreover, these scientific studies were carried out in the territory of other states, such as the Ottoman State. In 1859, upon the simultaneous earthquakes in Shamakhy and Ottoman-dominated Erzurum, the Academy of Sciences commissioned the German geologist Abich, who has been conducting research in the Caucasus, to conduct seismic surveys in these regions. This report, which was published in Russian shortly after presenting her field research to the academy in French, constitutes the most important part of our study. In the introduction part of the report before the conclusion of the field researches on the related earthquakes, Abich, who made evaluations about geology, emphasized the importance of the Caucasus region for this branch of science. Abich, who carried out his investigations on the Shamakhy and Erzurum earthquakes with the help of barometers and technical devices, also gave important information about the topography of the cities and the destruction they suffered. In the sections of this study other than the translation of the report, there is also an evaluation by us in the light of first hand sources regarding both earthquakes and the destruction caused by it.
