Project summary The basic problem, to the solution of which the proposed project contributes, is the lack of access of inhabitants of the district Ialoveni villages to the acceptable quality drinking water. Ialoveni district has an area of 783.48 km² and a population of 100,700 inhabitants. It consists of 25 administrative units, of which one is the district town, 6 communes and 18 villages. Access to safe drinking water supply has only the district town Ialoveni. Ialoveni District Council has available a comprehensive master plan for developing the drinking water supply and sanitation (GWSSP) developed with the support of the Swiss and Austrian ODA, and the first of four phases is already in implementation. In collaboration with an experienced Moldovan partner Regional Development Agency Centru and the Slovak applicant, the partnership is applying for support for the implementation of one part of the master plan - the water supply connection for one of the 18 villages - Bardar (5048 inhabitants) to a new source of drinking water. Through this it also aims to support the implementation of the entire phase 2 of the Master plan from the national fundss, as well as the integration and standardization are currently fragmented and inefficient management of water and sanitation system in the region. Sustainability and effectiveness of the investment interventions will be supported by activities focused on the involvement of relevant stakeholders (local authorities, experts and service providers) in the debate on the new system architecture by sharing the Slovak experience with the centralized drinking water supply systems at the municipal level. The project also includes activities focused on communication with the public and increasing the currently low awareness of the need for quality drinking water for human health and the possibilities of its protection. Activities will focus on working with children and young people as actors of change and at the same time those who will be under the major threat of a deterioration in the quality of the environment in the future. 2 2. ANALÝZA PROBLÉMOV A ZDÔVODNENIE PROJEKTU (MAX. 3 STRANY) 2. 1. Identifikácia problémov a analýza potrieb Základný problém, ktorý navrhovaný projekt rieši, je neexistujúci prístup obyvateľov dedín okresu (rayonu) Ialoveni k zdravotne nezávadnej pitnej vode. Okres Ialoveni má rozlohu 783.48 km² a počet obyvateľov je 100 700 (2013). Okres Ialoveni sa skladá z 25 administratívnych jednotiek, z toho je jedno mesto (Ialoveni), 6 komún (communes) (Gangura, Mileştii Mici, Răzeni, Ruseştii Noi, Ţipala a Zîmbreni), a 18 dedín (Bardar, Cărbuna, Cigîrleni, Costeşti, Dănceni, Hansca, Horeşti, Horodca, Malcoci, Moleşti, Nimoreni, Pojăreni, Puhoi, Sociteni, Suruceni, Ulmu, Văratic a Văsieni). V súčasnej dobe používajú obyvatelia dedín v okrese vodu z podzemných a povrchových vôd, ale jej kvalita a kvantita je hodnotená ako nezodpovedajúca existujúcim normám a budúcim potrebám. Znečistenie povrchovej vody je spôsobené predovšetkým zo strany súkromného sektora, poľnohospodárstvom, a tiež nedostatkom vhodnej infraštruktúry na zber a čistenie odpadových vôd. Čo sa týka podzemných vôd, v okrese existuje 4475 studní, ale podľa Centra pre verejné zdravie nespĺňajú štandardy kvality vody určenej na ľudskú spotrebu (nevyhovujúca z fyzikálno-chemických a bakteriologických dôvodov, prekročená je najmä povolená koncentrácia sírovodíka (H2S), amoniaku (NH4), železa (Fe) a fluóru (F) – viď príloha 9.1 – Analysis results of wells in Bardar). Napriek tomu, že voda nevyhovuje požadovaným štandardom, studne sú používané na spotrebu, čo nie je dobré pre zdravie obyvateľstva. Vplyvu kvality pitnej vody na zdravie obyvateľstva nie je prikladaná dostatočná dôležitosť. Problémom je aj nízka úroveň údržby dlhodobého majetku, nedostatočná kvalita a rozdrobenosť poskytovateľov služieb údržby, ktorí nepodliehajú žiadnej regulácii. Obce často nedisponujú kapacitami potrebnými na zabezpečenie efektívneho riadenia zásobovania pitnou vodou. 1 Preto je potrebné vybudovanie nového systému zabezpečujúceho pitnú vodu z kvalitného zdroja a zároveň zlepšiť manažment tohto systému efektívnym spôsobom a tiež zvýšiť povedomie obyvateľov o dôležitosti kvality pitnej vody pre ich zdravie. Partnerom projektu je District Council Ialoveni, ktorý má spolu so starostami v okrese riešenú oblasť v kompetencii. Potreba intervencie v tejto oblasti vyšla priamo od tejto zodpovednej inštitúcie, ktorá oslovila žiadateľa. District Council Ialoveni má vypracovanú komplexnú analýzu a strategický plán, podľa ktorého sa postupne snaží naplniť potreby obyvateľov. Takisto má k dispozícii technickú dokumentáciu výstavby siete vodovodov. Partnerom projektu je aj územne príslušná Regionálna rozvojová agentúra Stred (RRA Stred), ktorá priamo implementuje infraštruktúrne

The specifics of Rusyn and Ukrainian attitude to opposing parties are covered, an evolution of their sights concerning the War is shown. The policy of the self-proclaimed Republic of Serbian Krajina towards national minorities is characterized. The consequences of the Serbo-Croatian War on the situation of the Ukrainian diaspora in Croatia are analyzed.

Introduction The Serbo-Croatian War (1991-1995), along with Bosnian (1992-1995), marked the collapse of socialist Yugoslavia. Even today both Serbians and Croatians have different sight on the nature and character of this war: the former believe it is civil, and the latter believe it is a national liberation war. Each side sees an aggressor in their opponent and considers themselves as a victim. However, when studying the specifics of this war, researchers usually drop out of their sight national minorities, which lived in Croatian Danube region (Eastern Slavonia) – territory, that became one of the crucial Serbo-Croatian battlefields.

DOI: 10.29362/IST20VEKA.2018.1.RAD.9-34 REPUBLIKA SRPSKA KRAJINA AND THE RIGHT * OF PEOPLES TO SELF-DETERMINATION ABSTRACT: In Part I of this article author details the claims to inde- pendent statehood of Croatia and Krajina based upon the right of peoples to self-determination in the context of the emergence of nationalism as a powerful political force in Yugoslavia in the early 1990s. He also details the response of the international community to the crisis which these irreconcilable claims gave rise to. In Part II author explores the reasons why the secession of Croatia suc- ceeded and the secession of Krajina failed. Finally, the ramifications of Croa- tia’s and Krajina’s competing claims to statehood for the right of peoples to self-determination are discussed in the Conclusion. KEYWORDS: Republika Srpska Krajina, The break-up of Yugoslavia, War in Croatia 1991–1995, International Law, Self-determination, Secession, Inter-ethnic relations, National Minorities, Serbs in Croatia, Nationalism Introduction On 9 November 1989 the Berlin Wall came down. More than any other, this event of that tumultuous year symbolised the end of the Cold War and ush- ered in what Allen Buchanan has called ‘the age of secession’.1 The usual justi- fication for secessionist demands was the right of peoples to self-determination. One of the means by which this right is realised is by ‘the establishment of a sovereign and independent state’.2 The critical question for self-determination relates to the meaning of ‘peoples’.

At the same time, a growing appreciation of regional issues has raised interest in regional differences in each of these countries. This volume of the “Portrait of the Regions” series responds to this need and follows on in a tradition which has seen four volumes devoted to the current Member States, a fifth to Hungary, a sixth volume dedicated to the Czech Republic and Poland, a seventh to the Slovak Republic and the most recent volume covering the Baltic States, Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania. Examining the 12 statistical regions of Slovenia, this ninth volume in the series has an almost identical structure to Volume 8, itself very similar to earlier publications.

  • The Formation of Croatian National Identity
    bellamy [22.5].jkt 21/8/03 4:43 pm Page 1 Europeinchange E K T C The formation of Croatian national identity ✭ This volume assesses the formation of Croatian national identity in the 1990s. It develops a novel framework that calls both primordialist and modernist approaches to nationalism and national identity into question before applying that framework to Croatia. In doing so it not only provides a new way of thinking about how national identity is formed and why it is so important but also closely examines 1990s Croatia in a unique way. An explanation of how Croatian national identity was formed in an abstract way by a historical narrative that traces centuries of yearning for a national state is given. The book goes on to show how the government, opposition parties, dissident intellectuals and diaspora change change groups offered alternative accounts of this narrative in order to The formation legitimise contemporary political programmes based on different visions of national identity. It then looks at how these debates were in manifested in social activities as diverse as football and religion, in of Croatian economics and language. ✭ This volume marks an important contribution to both the way we national identity bellamy study nationalism and national identity and our understanding of post-Yugoslav politics and society.

Throughout centuries, policies of states in the Western Balkan region were largely shaped in accordance with the infection outbreaks and consequences of plague epidemics. Austrian policy was not out of the line in this context, so the gener- al aspects of dealing in organisation of military border with the Ottoman Empire were always crucially connected with the reactions towards epidemics. Especially in the 16th and 17th centuries, Austria battled hard to stop expansion of epidemics that during those times mainly fluxed in from the side of the Ottoman Empire. The decisive change came in the 18th century. During this period, the Austrian reaction to plague outbursts at the area of south-eastern Europe was already a product of general rise of sanitary standards in western European regions, where attempts Correspondence: for implementation of some of newest qualities in perception of the quarantine BORO BRONZA requirements and medicine applications met with complex aspects of life in a tur- E: [email protected] bulent area of military border.

Siroky Department of Political Science Duke University Date: Approved: Dr. Donald L. Horowitz, Supervisor Dr. David L. Banks Dr. Alexander B. Downes Dr. Bruce W. Jentleson Dr. Erik Wibbels An abstract of a dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Political Science in the Graduate School of Duke University 2009 Copyright c 2009 by David S. Siroky All rights reserved Abstract Secession is a watershed event not only for the new state that is created and the old state that is dissolved, but also for neighboring states, proximate ethno-political groups and major powers. This project examines the problem of violent secession- ist conflict and addresses an important debate at the intersection of comparative and international politics about the conditions under which secession is a peaceful solution to ethnic conflict. It demonstrates that secession is rarely a solution to ethnic conflict, does not assure the protection of remaining minorities and produces new forms of violence. To explain why some secessions produce peace, while others generate violence, the project develops a theoretical model of the conditions that produce internally coherent, stable and peaceful post-secessionist states rather than recursive secession (i.e., secession from a new secessionist state) or interstate dis- putes between the rump and secessionist state.
