Siromaštvo kao odrednica privrednog razvoja u Bosni i Hercegovini (1945-1950)

Author(s): Vera Katz / Language(s): Bosnian Publication Year: 0

Most of the archival materials relating to the era of socialist development of Bosnia and Herzegovina are held at the Archive of Bosnia and Herzegovina. With access to these historical sources it is possible to understand the deep poverty and misery of Bosnian-Herzegovinian society after the Second World War. By consulting these sources, the author aims to complete the historical picture on this period, which is missing from the previous research in the Bosnian historiography.

Krstjani i trgovina robljem na Sredozemlju između 13. i 15. stoljeća

Author(s): Tomislav Zdenko Tenšek / Language(s): Croatian Publication Year: 0

The first accounts of traffick in slaves from this region, especially towards Spain, date back to as early as the 9th century. The most important records of trafficking slaves from Bosnia to the Mediterranean between the 13th and 15th century, with references to Dalmatian coast, are found in Dubrovnik. However, various specifics are noted in the accounts from Skradin, Šibenik, Trogir, Zadar, Split and Korčula. From the end of the 13th century, the number of both male and female krstjani from Bosnia sold to slavery is almost as high as the one of those sold on the north shores of the Black sea. Sometimes the slaves were bought in lots. In slave trade, there is a difference between real slave trade and voluntary service. For either of the two categories, a written testimony was required, a type of a contract that was attested by the local notary public. The mouth of the Neretva River was the most significant locality for procurement of the slaves from Bosnia. Slave tradesmen from all over the Mediterranean frequented the Neretva trading spots. During the second half of the 14th century, slaves there were bought in lots. At the time, women and, especially child slave trade were particularly developed. The female slaves were, at times, protagonists of a lucrative trade between, to exemplify, a Bosnian owner, a Bosnian merchant, followed by a buyer from Dubrovnik, a merchant from Dubrovnik and finally, a foreign buyer. Two main reasons for Bosnian slave trade were poverty and accusing the Bosnian krstjani of dualistic heresy. The way this questionable trade treated this kind of people; how they unscrupulously made money off slavery while believing they were the true benefactors of the poor, is truly disturbing. There are no records of the slaves being characterized as Patarenes before 1390, however, it is certain that religious heterodoxy served as a justification for slavery long before that. Slave trade culminated in the period between the last quarter of the 13th century and the first quarter of the 15th century. In the second half of the 15th century, trafficking slaves from Bosnia declined. The reason for the latter was the Turkish invasion of Bosnia. Bogomils and Christians were, according to them, one and the same. The Muslims captured both and generally sent them to Muslim states in the East. If one were to buy slaves, one would buy them from the Turks. From the end of the 13th to the beginning of the 15th century, trafficking of krstjani of the Church of Bosnia along the Adriatic coast and in the Mediterranean assumed gigantic proportions in the medieval slave trade.

Da li je Bosni i Hercegovini potrebno stvaranje novih historijskih mitova?

Author(s): Jon Kvaerne / Language(s): Bosnian Publication Year: 0

Jedno od polazišta konferencije o historijskim mitovima održane u Sarajevu, u novembru 2002. godine, bilo je da su tvrdnje o historijskim događajima i procesima igrale, i još uvijek igraju, važnu ulogu u političkom diskursu zemalja bivše Jugoslavije.1 Međutim, opisi ranijih vremena koji su prožimali javni diskurs i politički život u tom dijelu svijeta vrlo često nisu i najbolje verzije koje nam stoje na raspolaganju. Često tu postoje alternativni opisi koji se u daleko većoj mjeri mogu nazvati “naučnim”, u smislu da uvode izvore koji nam stoje na raspolaganju a ne ignoriraju dobro znane činjenice ili aspekte predmeta zanimanja.

Jedan pogled na gospodarsku aktivnost pravaških vođa od 1861. do 1914. godine

Author(s): Mira Kolar-Dimitrijević / Language(s): Croatian Publication Year: 0

Rightist economic activity changed from case to case; it was strongly influenced by the regulations of the Croat-Hungarian Agreement of 1868. The article divides the economic management of the Party of Right into three time periods: 1. 1861-1871. Kvaternik writes his well known work Hrvatski glavničar (Croatian Capitalist) which points to the necessity of creating domestic capital and stimulating its growth with a stock exchange. His ideas did not find fertile ground because the members of the party did not recognize their importance. 2. 1878-1894 Following the quiet that descended upon Rightist ranks after the Rakovica uprising of 1871, the party activists returned to the political stage in 1878. Until 1890, F. Folnegović was the most important individual in the party concerned with economic matters. His efforts enabled the publication of official party organs and the construction of the Starčević Dom (Starčević House). 3. 1895-1914 In 1890, J. Frank joined the Party of Right. Even though he never established a particular economic programme for strengthening the Pure Party of Right, he can largely be credited for the fact that the coffers of the Party began to receive important contributions which he invested into party activities, but which he also used to initiate the development of industry and banking (for e.g., “Danica” in Koprivnica). During the term of P. Rauch as Ban, work was begun on establishing a Department of Economy for the Land Government, which in 1914 resulted in the creation of the fourth branch of this government, the Department of National Economy, which, even if it came too late, changed the very nature of the Croat-Hungarian Agreement.

Książka "Bezdomność w Łodzi" jest w przeważającej mierze efektem konferencji pod tym samym tytułem, która odbyła się w tymże mieście w lutym 2016 roku za sprawą Łódzkiego Partnerstwa Pomocy w sytuacji Wykluczenia i Bezdomności. Składają się na nią teksty prezentowane podczas konferencji oraz kilka innych. Dobrze się stało, że książka nie odcina się od tego spotkania, jak to nieraz bywa z "tomami pokonferencyjnymi". Owszem, w różnoraki sposób do niej nawiązuje. We wstępie jest zamieszczony program konferencji, są też zdjęcia z obrad. W ten sposób redaktorkom publikacji udało się zachować coś z dialogu, który się toczył przecież tamtej zimy na Uniwersytecie Łódzkim. [...] Przedstawiony materiał [...] o bezdomności w Łodzi jest bardzo wartościowy. [z recenzji dr hab. Grzegorza Pełczyńskiego, prof. Uniwersytetu Wrocławskiego]

Sondy do slovenských dejín v dlhom 19. storočí

Author(s): / Language(s): Slovak,English

The book presents the results of new research in Slovak history in the field or period called “the long 19th century”, i.e. dating from the rule of Joseph II. in the late 18th century until the First World War. The focus of research was on the themes and domains which were either neglected in the past or needed reconsidering. The book centres on five fields and is composed of five chapters. The first chapter is called “The Nation and the national issue”. It presents new aspects by exploring one of the most principal themes of 19th century. In his study, László Vörös reflects about the modern concept of the nation, which won recognition by the most contemporary historians, ethnologists and sociologists: the nation as an imagined community and an imagined tradition which is connected with the modernisation epoch. Nationalism is specifically an urban phenomenon. In the Slovak historiography, the national movement had been explored mostly in the rural area, in the peasant milieu, because the majority of the Slovak ethnic population was composed of peasants. Eva Kowalská aimed to change this perspective and concentrated on explaining urban aspects of Slovak nationalism. In case of Slovakia, these aspects are more interesting since the Slovaks in the 19th century had no important central city, and only small towns in the countryside (like Turčiansky Sv. Martin), had tried to compensate this lack. In his contribution, Peter Macho summarises how the symbol of the Tatra mountains as well as other Slovak geographic-territorial symbols were present in the Slovak nationalist discourse. Peter Šoltés elaborates on the theme and the activities of the Slovak Evangelical intelligentsia in the first half of the 19th century. The second chapter “The National movement in foreign and domestic politics” deals with the important connection of nationalism and politics. Slovak foreign political thought was traditionally orientated toward the Russian Empire. In his contribution, Dušan Kováč shows the other side of the Slovak foreign orientation: their attitude to the Western powers England and France. Dušan Škvarna attempts at a reconsideration of the role and inspiring function of the Slovak National Council, established during the 1848 revolution. The Swiss political scientist Josette Baer, a specialist in the field of Slavonic and lately mainly of Slovak political thought, presents her analysis of the early political activities of Vavro Šrobár (an important personality of Slovak politics in the 20th century), especially his leading role in the so-called “Hlasist movement”. The third chapter is dedicated to the juridical system and economic issues. Tomáš Gábriš presents a very useful survey of the juridical system in Hungary and its changes in the era of modernization during the 19th century. His paper shows that in Hungary the tendency to modernize was clashing with very difficult obstacles, mainly ideological and political ones. The attempt to create the centralised “nation state” in Hungary restrained the most important liberal-democratic reforms of the juridical system. In her contribution, Eva Ondrušová deals with the traditional studies of economic cameralism and its influence on the economic theory and practise in the 19th century. Ľudovít Hallon and Miroslav Sabol follow the history of the Pittel and Brausewetter architectural company, which was much closely connected with and active in the very broad Pressburg (Bratislava) area. Very new themes are presented in the forth chapter named “Society, social life and environment”. Gabriela Dudeková outlines the system of poor relief in the Habsburg monarchy; her focus is on the mechanisms how the authorities denied social care to specific groups in Hungary. Slovak emigration to America is a very traditional issue in Slovak historiography. Igor Harušťák tries to consider this problem in the broader Central- and East-European context. Prior to 1989, research about the nobility as a social strata was neglected in Slovak historiography. Even after 1989, this theme was intensively researched mainly in the period of middle ages and the early modern times. However, from the social point of view, important and interesting issues are e. g. the nobility’s life style as well as the attempts of these “high society” members to preserve their status in the modern 19th century. Daniel Hupko deals with these issues focussing on the example of Lucia Wilczek. Roman Holec presents a completely new approach in his contribution about the changes in the relationship ‘man – animal’ as manifestation of a new attitude to nature during the 19th century. The last chapter of this volume is dedicated to “The Churches in the social – modernizing processes “.Ingrid Kušniráková analyses the controversial interferences of Joseph II. into the life of the Roman Catholic Church, especially the closing-down of some cloisters. Tomáš Králik focuses on the relations of the Vienna court to the St. Elisabeth convent in Pressburg (Bratislava). The chapters of this collective monograph will serve as a basis for the draft of a new synthetis on Slovak history in the “long 19th century”.

200 godina Friedricha Engelsa

Author(s): / Language(s): Croatian,Serbian

This anthology book is published on the occasion of the bicentennial of the birth of Friedrich Engels, an exceptional thinker and theorist of the revolution. Editors Maroje Višić and Miroslav Artić gathered renowned domestic and international scientists who tried to reevaluate Engels' works and his scientific contribution. The idea behind the book is to point out the everlasting value and significance of Engels’ revolutionary philosophy. Contributing authors offered analytical reading of Engels' ideas, addressing pressing issues in economics, politics, religion, feminism, ideology and in other segments of contemporary society. The papers in an anthology are organized under the chapters: The Reception of Engel’s Philosophy, Actuality of Engels Today with subchapters on working-class and precariat, peasantry as the subject of change, early Christianity as an inspiration; and the last chapter is Revalorization of Family and State. The first chapter tackles the questions if Engels was more than an interpreter of Marx or simply the first Marxist who contributed to the banalization of Marx. It then investigates reception of Engels’ philosophy in ex-Yugoslavia specifically and in philosophical theory in general. The second chapter demonstrates actuality and relevance of Engels today by discussing the topics of working-class and precariat, by making comparison between early industrial society and contemporary society and by tracking development of socialism from utopia to a science. Chapter also deals on the peasantry whose role as a subject of change is thoroughly problematized. Special part of the chapter is dedicated to the influence of the practice of early Christianity on the formation of Engels’ revolutionary idea and to what extent original Christian community served affected the development of Engels’ thought. Final chapter brings papers that, under new circumstances, re-examine the understanding of the state-family relation and their dynamic. This comprehensive anthology attempted to revalorize and appraise Engels’ own contribution to science and philosophy 200 years after his birth. For this it was necessary to “divorce” Engels from Marx so that the fallacy of statement that Engels was second violin to Marx becomes striking.Chapter one tackle the question of whetherEngels was more than an interpreter of Marx or simply the first Marxist to contribute to the banalization of Marx.= Engels' reception is then examined both in the former Yugoslavia and in philosophical theory in general.Special part of the chapter is dedicated to influence of the practice of early Christianity on the formation of Engels’ revolutionary idea. That is, to what extent the examples of the original Christian communities influenced the development of Engels' thought

Az arab világ történeti és kulturális kislexikona

Author(s): / Language(s): Hungarian

The lexicon is divided into four chapters. The first one is a detailed introduction, where we present a professional background of our topic, the significance of our research, the structure of our work, as well as the used literature and sources, in addition to an overview of the Arab-Hungarian relations. In the second and longest chapter, we portray biographies of the Arab personalities. In the third one, we examine the most important historical events in the Arab world, such as the Arab-Israeli wars, the nationalization of the Suez Canal, and the parallel crisis of 1956. In the last chapter, we briefly introduce concepts related to the stories and biographies found in the volume.Only a few results of Arabic historiography have been integrated into modern Hungarian research. Therefore, we consider it a priority to fill this gap. The aim of this work is to create a lexicon in which we gather – in the form of articles – the most eminent Arab personalities (approximately 1000), who were/are decisive in political, economic, military or even cultural life and others associated with the Arab world.

Poeta nascitur, historicus fit – ad honorem Zef Mirdita

Author(s): / Language(s): Albanian,English,Croatian,Slovenian,German,Italian

The book before you is dedicated to our dear colleague and friend Zef Mirdita. In this way, we want to thank him for his exceptionally fruitful, almost 50-year scientific work, and especially for the days he has spent and still spends with us at the Croatian Institute of History in Zagreb from 1993 to the present day. Professor Mirdita has also been an honorary member and advisor of the Albanian Institute (Albanisches Institut) in St. Gallen (Switzerland) since its foundation in 2002. Although he retired in 2004, the scientific community of the Croatian Institute of History will always consider him its distinguished member whose research results are an indispensable part of not only Croatian and Albanian but also European historiography. His life and scientific path took place (and still actively takes place) between Croatia and Albanians (especially Kosovo).

Instytucjonalne i historyczne wymiary dyskusji o ekonomii i gospodarce

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

Ekonomia instytucjonalna stała się ostatnio nie tylko popularnym podejściem badawczym, ale wręcz w niektórych obszarach nauk społecznych dominującym paradygmatem (…). Naukowcy badają instytucje gospodarcze i całe złożone zbiory instytucji, które warunkują i kształtują mechanizmy lub organizacje, takie jak „rynki” lub firmy. Analizują także instytucje zapewniające społeczne warunki funkcjonowania gospodarki, których przykładami są zarówno kodeksy prawne, jak i normy kulturowe. Wreszcie – badają wpływ gospodarki na nieekonomiczne wymiary społeczeństwa, w tym na przykład na systemy polityczne. Polska myśl instytucjonalna, wpisując się w ten globalny dyskurs, może również kształtować kierunki interpretacji zjawisk społeczno-gospodarczych, pokazując konsekwencje dokonywanych wyborów w szerokim, ale uwarunkowanym lokalnie i historycznie kontekście instytucjonalnym.
