  • Jewish Citizens of Socialist Yugoslavia: Politics of Jewish Identity in a Socialist State, 1944-1974
    JEWISH CITIZENS OF SOCIALIST YUGOSLAVIA: POLITICS OF JEWISH IDENTITY IN A SOCIALIST STATE, 1944-1974 by Emil Kerenji A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (History) in The University of Michigan 2008 Doctoral Committee: Professor Todd M. Endelman, Co-Chair Professor John V. Fine, Jr., Co-Chair Professor Zvi Y. Gitelman Professor Geoffrey H. Eley Associate Professor Brian A. Porter-Szűcs © Emil Kerenji 2008 Acknowledgments I would like to thank all those who supported me in a number of different and creative ways in the long and uncertain process of researching and writing a doctoral dissertation. First of all, I would like to thank John Fine and Todd Endelman, because of whom I came to Michigan in the first place. I thank them for their guidance and friendship. Geoff Eley, Zvi Gitelman, and Brian Porter have challenged me, each in their own ways, to push my thinking in different directions. My intellectual and academic development is equally indebted to my fellow Ph.D. students and friends I made during my life in Ann Arbor. Edin Hajdarpašić, Bhavani Raman, Olivera Jokić, Chandra Bhimull, Tijana Krstić, Natalie Rothman, Lenny Ureña, Marie Cruz, Juan Hernandez, Nita Luci, Ema Grama, Lisa Nichols, Ania Cichopek, Mary O’Reilly, Yasmeen Hanoosh, Frank Cody, Ed Murphy, Anna Mirkova are among them, not in any particular order. Doing research in the Balkans is sometimes a challenge, and many people helped me navigate the process creatively. At the Jewish Historical Museum in Belgrade, I would like to thank Milica Mihailović, Vojislava Radovanović, and Branka Džidić.

  • Sretan Uskrs
    GODINA 11 BROJ 33 USORA, TRAVANJ 2017. Sretan Uskrs Načelnik Općine Predsjedatelj OV-a Zvonimir Anđelić www.usora.com Ivo Suvala Usorski bilten - travanj 2017. IZ ŽIVUSKRSOTA OPĆINE USKRS tijelo, a vratiti „izgubljeno“, jer smo tim gubitkom postali duhovni siromasi. Prihvatiti vjeru Evanđelja je upravo ono u čemu je Isus poučavao svoje učenike o svemu što će mu se dogoditi i kako će On uskrsnuti. U svjetlu tog nauka i naš život s cijelim sadržajem dobiva novu vrijednost. Ta nova vrijednost se postiže u čvrstoj i snažnoj vjeri kakvu je imao sv. Pavao, nasuprot onoj mekušastoj – površnoj vjeri koja nas dovodi u sumnju i sve više udaljuje od Isusova obećanja. Nakon razdiranja hramske zavjese, pomračenja sunca, grobne tišine, straha i bijega javlja se nova stvarnost pred očima u č e n i k a , u p l a š e n i h ž e n a , p r v o t n o nezainteresiranih svjedoka. Ta nova stvarnost je uskrsli Isus koji upravo donosi sve novo. Svi Za svaki važan događaj u ljudskom životu su tada bili na dobitku, tada im se otvaraju oči i slijedi ozbiljna priprava. Što je događaj važniji razumijevaju ono o čemu ih je poučavao u to je i priprava ozbiljnija. Cijena velika za vrijeme navještanja radosne vijesti. I Toma prolazne stvari, a kakva bi tek trebala biti, kad apostol raste u vjeri, tek tada ispovijeda se radi o neprolaznim vrijednostima, a to je Gospodin moj i Bog moj, što mu je do tada bilo vječni život i spasenje kojega nebeski Otac neprihvatljivo. obećava svima.

  • Cultural Informations Počitelj
    CULTURAL INFORMATIONS POČITELJ The historic site of Počitelj is located on the left bank of the river Neretva, on the main Mostar to Metković road, and it is to the south of Mostar. During the Middle Ages, Počitelj was considered the administrative centre and centre of governance of Dubrava župa (county), while its westernmost point gave it major strategic importance. It is believed that the fortified town along with its attendant settlements were built by Bosnia's King Stjepan Tvrtko I in 1383. The walled town of Počitelj evolved in the period from the 16th to the 18th centuries. Architecturally, the stone-constructed parts of the town are a fortified complex, in which two stages of evolution are evident: mediaeval, and Ottoman. The first recorded reference to Počitelj dates from 1444, in Charters by Kings Alfonso V and Friedrich III. In the period between 1463-1471 the town housed a Hungarian garrison. In 1471, following a brief siege, the town was conquered by the Ottomans, and remained within the Ottoman Empire until 1878. From 1782 to 1879 Počitelj was the kadiluk (area under the jurisdiction of a kadija or qadi - judge) centre and it was the headquarters of the Počitelj military district from 1713 to photo: Donatella Carlovich 1835. The significance and the town's appearance has altered during the course of its history. As far as the development of Počitelj goes, three significant periods can be distinguished: The period of the Hungarian King Matthias Corvinus during which the town had a major strategic importance (1463–1471) The period of the settlement development under the Ottoman Empire with the erection of public buildings: mosques, imaret (charitable kitchen), mekteb (Muslim primary school),, medresa (Muslim high school), hamam, baths, han (inn) and the sahat-kula (clock-tower) (1471–1698).

    United Nations S/2001/1001 Security Council Distr.: General 24 October 2001 Original: English Letter dated 23 October 2001 from the Secretary-General addressed to the President of the Security Council I have the honour to convey the attached communication, dated 19 October 2001, which I have received from the Secretary-General of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (see annex). I should be grateful if you would bring it to the attention of the members of the Security Council. (Signed) Kofi A. Annan 01-59943 (E) 251001 *0159943* S/2001/1001 Annex Letter dated 19 October 2001 from the Secretary-General of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization to the Secretary-General In accordance with Security Council resolution 1088, I attach the monthly report on SFOR operations (see enclosure). I would appreciate your making this report available to the Security Council. (Signed) George Robertson 2 S/2001/1001 Enclosure Monthly report to the Security Council on the operations of the Stabilization Force 1. Over the reporting period (1 to 30 September 2001), there were just over 19,500 troops deployed in Bosnia and Herzegovina and Croatia, with contributions from all the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) Allies and from 15 non- NATO countries. 2. During the period under review, the situation in Bosnia and Herzegovina remained relatively calm. SFOR continued its mission to ensure a safe and secure environment throughout the area. 3. Some violent incidents did take place, including the destruction of the car belonging to the Serb mayor Serbsko Orasje, which was blown up by a bomb in what is believed to have been a politically motivated act; a grenade attack which damaged a Bosniac bakery in Doboj; and a grenade explosion under a car in Gacko which injured two people.

Highlights include dynamic, modern European cities and coastal resorts, centres of conservative Orthodox Christian heritage, Sufi Islamic monasteries, pre-historic cultural centres, the point of origin for WW1, and a capital city that still bears the scars of Europe’s most recent war. Over two weeks the Balkans may or may not become easier to understand. However, cultural and ethnic differences which have over the centuries in turn forged alliances and catalysed conflict will become apparent. This is a holiday, with fine wines and excellent cuisine, but it’s also an exploration of human nature. Tour Itinerary Notes While our intention is to adhere to the day-by-day itinerary as printed below, a degree of flexibility is built in. Overnight stops may vary from those suggested and on occasions alternative accommodation, of a similar standard to that named below, will be used.
