The NEXT project description and objectives The NEXT project intends to create a collaborative platform to support innovation and technology transfer in the Countries of the Adriatic area. The Project aims at supporting cooperation of research and development and technology transfer organizations of its partaking partners to enhance innovation in order to increase the competitive capacity of goods and services produced by companies within the region. The project thereby contributes to sustainable economic development and growth within the respective region and country. It arises from the considerations on the role of innovation, transnational networks and cooperation as levers of national economic development and, more generally, of the increase in competitive capacity of enterprises through better connections with the innovation circuits. The main focus of the project is the cross-border transfer of research and technology within and between the members of the project. The NEXT project will help to optimize research and development investments of individual companies, institutions as well regions and countries. It will thereby make it possible to share the risk of overinvesting in equipment and research and will enhance the competitiveness of the area through research and technology transfer. Synergies, networks and joint research amongst the partners included in NEXT will maximize “value for money” in research and development as well as create an atmosphere for cross- border communication, connection and visibility of research and development results and opportunities. Another aim of the project is to create a critical mass in skill, resources and participants in specific scientific and technological fields of interest which will benefit the partners now and in future. Cooperation and networking projects such as NEXT can support the adoption of new cultural and operational approaches in the field of research and innovation and consequently the development of new skills and professional opportunities in the regional contexts of the beneficiary Countries, as stated in the projects description. The NEXT project is also significant because of the common history of the partaking partners in the project. In the Balkan Countries and in particular in those of the former Yugoslavia, due 6 Collaborative Platform to Support Research and Technology Transfer – NEXT NEXT OPEN BOOK REPOSITORY FOR THE COUNTY OF ISTRIA 2014 to a number of factors which include for instance: the previous and recent economic crisis by which most of the countries have been hit severely, few investments overall and especially in the scientific sector in recent years and the absence of a defined and coherent institutional framework which characterized the region. There is also a notable lack of an institutional and strong relationship between the scientific and research sector the businesses. Most of the countries have had, and in part still have, difficulty in accessing financial resources, especially for those Countries that cannot yet count on the support provided by the European Union’s Structural Funds. Exiting the science, research, cultural and financial isolation is a priority for those countries. This has been identified and addressed by the NEXT project and the NEXT Open Book will provide a tool to overcome the relative isolation in the field of research, development and innovation. It will create the precise operational models, to identify scientific and technological partners and to build up a framework for the exchange of research, development and innovation information and services, to facilitate the access to existing resources and skills at the international level, and will most likely make use of the means of EU funds provided for such synergistic activities. Through the NEXT Open Book repository, promotion of excellence in the area of research, development, innovation and collaboration the institutional capacity in the sector of research and technology transfer will be increased. Implementation of local development models will also become more oriented towards territorial knowledge management. These challenges and complexity

    Macroeconomic Determinants of the Non-Performing Placements and Off-Balance Sheet Liabilities of Croatian Banks Manuel Benazić, Dajana Radin

    Organizacija, Volume 48 Research papers Number 2, May 2015 DOI: 10.1515/orga-2015-0009 Macroeconomic Determinants of the Non-performing Placements and Off-balance Sheet Liabilities of Croatian Banks Manuel Benazić, Dajana Radin Juraj Dobrila University of Pula, Faculty of Economics and Tourism “Dr. Mijo Mirković”, Preradovića 1/1, 52 100 Pula, Croatia, [email protected], [email protected] Background and Purpose: The non-performing placements and off-balance sheet liabilities are often considered key factors that lead to banking crises. Economic and financial crises increase the level of the non-performing placements and off-balance sheet liabilities which can cause significant losses for banks. Effective management and regulatory/ supervisory institutions such central banks should be able to recognize and quantify these effects. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to empirically determine the existence and the quantitative impact of main Croatian macroeco- nomic variables on the non-performing placements and off-balance sheet liabilities of Croatian banks in the long and short-run. Methodology: For this purpose the bounds testing (ARDL) approach for cointegration is applied. The ARDL model is performed in two steps. The first step starts with conducting the bounds test for cointegration. In the second step, when cointegration is found, the long-run relationship and the associated error correction model are estimated. Results: The results indicate the existence of stable cointegration relationship between the variables i.e. in the long- run, an increase in real GDP reduces the level of the non-performing placements and off-balance sheet liabilities of Croatian banks wherein an increase in prices, unemployment, interest rate and the depreciation of the Croatian kuna exchange rate increases their level.

    Indoor Camping in Fortified Heritage Buildings

    sustainability Article Indoor Camping in Fortified Heritage Buildings: A New Way of Sustainable Tourism Valorization Roberta Kontoši´cPami´c 1, Iva Slivar 2 and Tamara Floriˇci´c 2,* 1 Department of Entrepreneurship, Faculty of Economics and Tourism, Juraj Dobrila University of Pula, 52100 Pula, Croatia; [email protected] 2 Department of Tourism, Faculty of Economics and Tourism, Juraj Dobrila University of Pula, 52100 Pula, Croatia; [email protected] * Correspondence: tamara.fl[email protected] Abstract: Indoor camping is an innovative, sustainable model of accommodation, the least intrusive one in solid facilities. Its temporary tourism function demands almost no additional construction work, meaning no permanent modification of space is needed for tourism purposes. Fortifications and defence buildings are recognised as valuable cultural attractions and present an anthropogenic resource with potential for touristic valorisation, both as sightseeing facilities as well as accommoda- tion facilities. This paper explores the connection between the requirements of heritage protection of fortifications and the requirements of the application of indoor camping in these fortifications. The purpose of this paper is to help conserve fortifications by providing funding for their mainte- nance with the application of this innovative accommodation model respecting the principles of sustainability and health and safety standards in post-Covid tourism. The goal is to provide a general framework that could reconcile tourism businesses on one side and conservators on the other. The main scientific contribution is summarised in the framework of adequate implementation of indoor camping in fortified buildings according to conservators’ requirements. The interview technique was Citation: Kontoši´cPami´c,R.; Slivar, used to assess this.

Društvena i politička emancipacija hrvatskog stanovništva prvo je zahvatila rubne dijelove pokrajine, Kastavštinu i otoke, dok su se unutrašnjost Poluotoka i zaleđe gradova na zapadnoj obali znatno sporije odvajali od utjecaja talijanskoga građanstva. Ipak, pisana riječ na vlastitom jeziku i onamo je prodirala već od sredine 19. stoljeća, prije svega poticana trudom i marom vodećeg preporoditelja istarskih Hrvata – Jurja Dobrile. Molitvenik Otče budi volja tvoja!, pastirska pisma, kalendar Istran i glasilo Naša sloga..., tiskovine na hrvatskom jeziku namijenjene slabo obrazovanom seoskom stanovništvu, obilježile su Dobrilino razdoblje i pretvorile se u jedan od stupova na kojima je oblikovana hrvatska nacija u Istri. Uz navedene primjere, potrebno je posebno naglasiti biskupovu suradnju sa zagrebačkim Društvom sv. Jeronima koja ukazuje na povezanost kulturnog uzdizanja i integracijskog procesa. Iako se, dakle, val pokretanja čitaonica razlio Istrom u desetljećima nakon Dobriline smrti, u ruralnim je krajevima već postojao neuklonjivi temelj oblikovan biskupovom preporodnom djelatnošću.

The Role of Culture in Creation of Regional and a Common European Cultural Identity – Istrian Case Study Nataša Urošević Juraj Dobrila University of Pula, Croatia [email protected] This paper explores the processes of imagining the nation and the construction of identity in the competing narratives of the Istrian history, space and culture as the key references of identities derived from the transcultural contact zone at the crossroads of the Mediterranean, Central Europe and Balkans. We will demonstrate how the intellectual elites of this liminal borderland made a use of culture for the nation- and region- building. Our research will be focused on the articulation of the regional cultural identity, narrated in the work of the Istrian polyhistor Mijo Mirković (1898-1963), who used the elements of traditional culture to (re)construct the local identity, seriously endangered in the period of fascism. His work also provides a model for understanding the transition from the pre-industrial oral culture into an unstable modernity which seized Istria in the most barbarous of manners employing the imperial and colonizing trespassing practice, the untypical ideological blend of a mass consumer culture and aggressive interventions of totalitarian ideologies into identity. We will also explore contemporary models of creative use of culture in creation of regional and a common European cultural identity.
