Authenticity in Electronic Dance Music in Serbia at the Turn of the Centuries
The Other by Itself: Authenticity in electronic dance music in Serbia at the turn of the centuries Inaugural dissertation submitted to attain the academic degree of Dr phil., to Department 07 – History and Cultural Studies at Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz Irina Maksimović Belgrade Mainz 2016 Supervisor: Co-supervisor: Date of oral examination: May 10th 2017 Abstract Electronic dance music (shortly EDM) in Serbia was an authentic phenomenon of popular culture whose development went hand in hand with a socio-political situation in the country during the 1990s. After the disintegration of Yugoslavia in 1991 to the moment of the official end of communism in 2000, Serbia was experiencing turbulent situations. On one hand, it was one of the most difficult periods in contemporary history of the country. On the other – it was one of the most original. In that period, EDM officially made its entrance upon the stage of popular culture and began shaping the new scene. My explanation sheds light on the fact that a specific space and a particular time allow the authenticity of transposing a certain phenomenon from one context to another. Transposition of worldwide EDM culture in local environment in Serbia resulted in scene development during the 1990s, interesting DJ tracks and live performances. The other authenticity is the concept that led me to research. This concept is mostly inspired by the book “Death of the Image” by philosopher Milorad Belančić, who says that the image today is moved to the level of new screen and digital spaces. The other authenticity offers another interpretation of a work, or an event, while the criterion by which certain phenomena, based on pre-existing material can be noted is to be different, to stand out by their specificity in a new context. -
SERBIA Jovanka Matić and Dubravka Valić Nedeljković
SERBIA Jovanka Matić and Dubravka Valić Nedeljković porocilo.indb 327 20.5.2014 9:04:47 INTRODUCTION Serbia’s transition to democratic governance started in 2000. Reconstruction of the media system – aimed at developing free, independent and pluralistic media – was an important part of reform processes. After 13 years of democratisation eff orts, no one can argue that a new media system has not been put in place. Th e system is pluralistic; the media are predominantly in private ownership; the legal framework includes European democratic standards; broadcasting is regulated by bodies separated from executive state power; public service broadcasters have evolved from the former state-run radio and tel- evision company which acted as a pillar of the fallen autocratic regime. However, there is no public consensus that the changes have produced more positive than negative results. Th e media sector is liberalized but this has not brought a better-in- formed public. Media freedom has been expanded but it has endangered the concept of socially responsible journalism. Among about 1200 media outlets many have neither po- litical nor economic independence. Th e only industrial segments on the rise are the enter- tainment press and cable channels featuring reality shows and entertainment. Th e level of professionalism and reputation of journalists have been drastically reduced. Th e current media system suff ers from many weaknesses. Media legislation is incom- plete, inconsistent and outdated. Privatisation of state-owned media, stipulated as mandato- ry 10 years ago, is uncompleted. Th e media market is very poorly regulated resulting in dras- tically unequal conditions for state-owned and private media. -

An Analysis of Media Coverage of ICTY Verdicts in Croatian and Serbian Media
How (not) to reconcile: An analysis of media coverage of ICTY verdicts in Croatian and Serbian media by Sara Ana Cemazar Submitted to Central European University Department of Political Science In partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Supervisor: Dr. Oana Lup CEU eTD Collection Budapest, Hungary 2018 Abstract This thesis investigates media coverage of International Criminal Court for former Yugoslavia’s verdicts in Croatia and Serbia in three cases. This Court was established to deal with atrocities committed during conflict between these two countries in the 1990-es and it set out to perpetrate the guilty. By using thematic and framing analysis on more than 250 articles in four newspapers, it can be seen that the observed verdicts to Gotovina et al., Karadzic and Prlic et al. were perceived ambivalently in two countries, which extends to the ongoing duality of narratives present in understanding common history between Croatia and Serbia. If the verdict’s outcome was perceived as favorable to the country, it was portrayed as just in the media, and vice versa. Given that this Court’s indirect aims were to individualize guilt and facilitate reconciliation, this study argues that this was not achieved. Namely, by media reporting that helped encourage collectivity of the guilt or innocence as an outcome of a verdict to an individual, reconciliation process between two nations was not made easier.

Ethnic Tensions in Serbia by Secons Belgrade, May 2013
Serbia Chronicle 2 – Ethnic tensions in Serbia by SeConS Belgrade, May 2013 Ethnic tensions have been the main security concern in the Western Balkan region for the past couple of decades. During the 1990s, these tensions were at the forefront of both the war in Bosnia, Croatia and Kosovo, which in the end claimed countless lives and the dissolution of the former Yugoslavia. Since then, peacekeeping initiatives, numerous conventions, development strategies, EU integration, democratic reform, and many other initiatives, have all had the aim to stabilize the region and to prevent new ethnic clashes. Overall it can be said that these initiatives have been successful. For instance, just recently, on the 19th of April 2013, Kosovo and Serbia signed a historic agreement regarding the territorial and political sovereignty of Kosovo. Although the subject itself is a source of controversy and dispute, the latest agreement was made without large-scale ethnic conflicts or direct violent altercations.1 While this shows some progress in terms of dealing with ethnically charged disputes, ethnic tensions in the region are not solved. Ethnically based violence, ethnic tensions and threats of violence during symbolic events, upsurges of fascist groups and hooliganism, hate speech, and more, are just some example of how ethnic tensions are manifested.

Due to the fight in Temerin, seven suspects were arrested for inciting religious and racial hatred”. – Novosti (23.10.2012)2 “Fights in Temerin, media reports that they are ethically charged”. – Vesti online (28.01.2013)3 “Another incident in Temerin. -
Cirkadijalni Ritam I Infarkt Miokarda Circadian Rhythm and Myocardial Infarction
doi: 10.21860/medflum2019_216321 Pregledni članak/Review Cirkadijalni ritam i infarkt miokarda Circadian rhythm and myocardial infarction Ivana Škrlec Fakultet za dentalnu medicinu i zdravstvo, Sveučilište Josipa Jurja Strossmayera u Osijeku, Osijek Sažetak. Cirkadijalni sat kontrolira cijeli niz fizioloških procesa, a njegovi poremećaji mogu dovesti do brojnih patofizioloških promjena. Središnji cirkadijalni sat smješten je u suprahijazmatskoj jezgri u hipotalamusu i reguliran je brojim genima cirkadijalnog ritma. Varijacije tih gena povezane su s pretilošću, poremećajima spavanja, metaboličkim i raznim psihičkim poremećajima te kardiovaskularnim događajima, poput infarkta miokarda, moždanog udara i vaskularne smrti. Mnogi kardiovaskularni procesi pokazuju jasne dnevne varijacije ovisne o cirkadijalnom ritmu (tlak, otkucaji srca), a cirkadijalni obrazac pojavnost karakterističan je za kardiovaskularne bolesti. Kronotip i dnevna pospanost, elementi cirkadijalnog ritma, važni su čimbenici rizika u procijeni nastanaka kardiovaskularnih bolesti, odnosno infarkta. Rad donosi pregled o najnovijim spoznajama utjecaja cirkadijalnog ritma, gena cirkadijalnog ritma i fenotipskih elemenata cirkadijalnog ritma, tj. kronotipa i dnevne pospanosti, na nastanak infarkta miokarda. U doba personalizirane medicine, znanje o cirkadijalnom ritmu pojedine osobe može biti važno za njezino liječenje, a može se uključiti i u dijagnostičke procese. Ključne riječi: cirkadijalni ritam; dnevna pospanost; infarkt miokarda; kronotip Abstract. The circadian clock controls -

The Hypnotist
The Hypnotist Aleksandar Vucic, John Bolton and the return of the past ESI Report 25 April 2019 ii Executive Summary It is remarkable how little change there has been in the key personnel in Serbian politics since the fall of Slobodan Milosevic in 2000. It is not surprising, therefore, that the old nationalist idea of redrawing borders on the basis of ethnicity has continued to be so prominent. What is surprising is the recent success that Serbian president Aleksandar Vucic has had in repackaging this old idea as progressive, non-conventional, out-of-the-box thinking. Why not, the siren song goes (again), adjust some borders along ethnic lines, as long as the process is negotiated peacefully and leads to reconciliation? When presenting the case for new borders Aleksandar Vucic talks a lot about the need to be realistic. He wants Serbia to be “smart” and to “take whatever it can.” He insists “on peace and stability, on negotiations and a solution, because we should not leave the problem to our children and grandchildren.” But what are the problems that Vucic proposes not to leave to the next generation? In February 2018 Serbia’s minister of defence, Aleksandar Vulin explained that his country’s priority was “to stop ‘Greater Albania’ after a century of expansion.” Serbia needed “a permanent and firm demarcation between Serbs and Albanians on the territory of Kosovo.” In August 2018 president Vucic described Kosovo as a powder-keg in which both sides were just waiting to attack at any moment: “Everyone will wait for an opportunity to strike the other in order to achieve an advantage on the ground.” In November 2018, Vulin explained that, in fact, Greater Albania was already emerging. -
