Znanstveno se djelovanje Medicinskoga fakulteta uvijek RADA odvijalo u skladu s činjenicom po kojoj su medicinsko obrazovanje i znanstveno istraživanje čvrsto povezani i po kojoj je prijenos znanstvenih spoznaja u nastavu i kliničku praksu predu- vjet uspješnog akademskog djelovanja.

PORUKE I POUKE STOGODIŠNJEG KALENDARA Stogodišnjica Medicinskog fakulteta Sveučilišta u Zagrebu priča je s porukom i poukom. Uzorno organiziranim obilježavanjem ovog jubileja poslana je upečatljiva poruka o vitalnoj nacionalnoj važnosti akademske zajednice, poruka podjednako upućena kako samoj toj zajednici tako i svima koji sudjeluju u vođenju hrvatske Države. A dvije glavne pouke također se tiču i države i akademske zajednice. Prva je da ni nesloboda – današnji značaj: besparica – ne smije postati izlika za nerad i nepromišljenost. Druga je pouka da bez solidarnosti – Papa Frane rekao bi „milosrđa“, a naš Ustav kaže „socijalne države“ – moć znanosti, obrazovanja i državne prisile postaje ne samo bez-smislena nego i opasna. Vitalna nacionalna važnost akademske zajednice u slučaju zagrebačke Medicine očituje se, prvo, u višestoljetnom otporu tuđinskih vladara da se dopusti osnivanje ustanove u kojoj bi nacionalna elita samostalno brinula o zdravlju vlastitog naroda.

  • Parliamentary and Presidential Elections in an Independent Croatia August 2, 1992
    102th CONGRESS Printed for the use of the 1st Session Commission on Security and Cooperation in Europe Parliamentary and Presidential Elections in an Independent Croatia August 2, 1992 1992 A Report Prepared by the Staff of the Commission on Security and Cooperation in Europe ABOUT THE ORGANIZATION (OSCE) The Conference on Security and Cooperation in Europe, also known as the Helsinki process, traces its origin to the signing of the Helsinki Final Act in Finland on August 1, 1975, by the leaders of 33 European countries, the United States and Canada. Since then, its membership has expanded to 55, reflecting the breakup of the Soviet Union, Czechoslovakia, and Yugoslavia. (The Federal Republic of Yugoslavia, Serbia and Mon- tenegro, has been suspended since 1992, leaving the number of countries fully participating at 54.) As of January 1, 1995, the formal name of the Helsinki process was changed to the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE). The OSCE is engaged in standard setting in fields including military security, economic and environmental cooperation, and human rights and humanitarian concerns. In addition, it undertakes a variety of preventive diplomacy initiatives designed to prevent, manage and resolve conflict within and among the participating States. The OSCE has its main office in Vienna, Austria, where weekly meetings of permanent representatives are held. In addition, specialized seminars and meetings are convened in various locations and periodic consultations among Senior Officials, Ministers and Heads of State or Government are held. ABOUT THE COMMISSION (CSCE) The Commission on Security and Cooperation in Europe (CSCE), also known as the Helsinki Commission, is a U.S.

  • Operacija “Burin” – Planovi Hrvatske Vojske Za Zauzi- Manje Istočne Hercegovine 1995
    ČSP, br. 3., 633.-657. Zagreb, 2009. UDK: 355.4(497.6-3 Hercegovina)’’1995’’ 355.1(497.5)’’1995’’ Izvorni znanstveni članak Primljeno: 15. 1. 2009. Prihvaćeno: 9. 11. 2009. Operacija “Burin” – planovi Hrvatske vojske za zauzi- manje istočne Hercegovine 1995. godine JAKŠA RAGUŽ Hrvatski institut za povijest, Zagreb, Republika Hrvatska Hercegovački korpus VRS često je od 1992. do 1995. godine topnički napadao na du- brovačku rivijeru i dolinu Neretve pri čemu je stradao veliki broj civila i paraliziran je normalan život stanovništva. Nastojeći prekinuti ove napade, Glavni stožer HV-a je za jesen 1995. godine pripremio planove za zauzimanje dijela istočne Hercegovine oda- kle je djelovalo topništvo VRS. Zbog spleta diplomatsko-vojnih okolnosti operacija nije provedena. Na temelju arhivske građe, te memoarskih djela međunarodnih mirovnih posrednika i hrvatskih, srpskih i crnogorskih političkih dužnosnika, autor prezentira kako je bila zamišljena operacija, planirane dosege, te razloge zbog kojih je suspendi- rana. Ključne riječi: istočna Hercegovina, Dubrovnik, Domovinski rat, operacija „Burin“. Uvod Nakon što je 22. srpnja 1995. između državnog vodstva Republike Hrvat- ske i Republike Bosne i Hercegovine (BiH) potpisana „Splitska deklaracija“ o uzajamnoj vojnoj suradnji, koja je dopuštala Hrvatskoj vojsci (HV) da le- gitimno boravi i djeluje u BiH, HV i Hrvatsko vijeće obrane (HVO) su izveli operaciju „Ljeto 1995.” kojom su ovladali Bosanskim Grahovom (28. srpnja) i Glamočem (29. srpnja). Time je zaustavljena srpska ofenziva na Bihać te stvoreni uvjeti za provedbu „Oluje” i oslobađanje središnje Hrvatske.1 Tijekom rujna i početkom listopada na prostoru zapadne Bosne hrvatske su postrojbe operacijama „Maestral-2“ i „Južni potez“ ovladale Drvarom, Jajcem, Šipovom i Mrkonjić Gradom te se našle na prilazima Banjoj Luci, dok je Armija BiH (ABiH) ovladala Donjim Vakufom, Bos.
