The conceptual framework developed in the thesis is informed by the theory of structuration. On the basis of this theory and the analysis of primary empirical data, the thesis seeks to refine the understanding of the concepts of ‘migration regime’, ‘social exclusion’ and ‘territorialisation’ of identity. The empirical research conducted for the thesis focuses on the period 2002-2009 and on the experiences and identities of a particular group of migrants, namely, former Soviet citizens from former republics of the USSR, who are currently living in post-Soviet Russia without Russian citizenship. The thesis explores and analyses, on the one hand, the structures which constitute the Russian migration regime and, on the other, the stories told by interviewed migrants about their lives in Russia. The thesis argues that the current migration regime of the Russian Federation represents ‘a differentiated system of othering’ and shows that this system is informed by two processes – nation-building and racialisation. It also argues that differentiations institutionalised in the Russian migration regime affect the social exclusion of migrants and through this the ‘territorialisation’ of their identities.

    論 説 East Asia’s Development and Sub-regional Economic Zones: A Focus on Multilateral Cross-border Cooperation between Local Governments Kenji Nakayama Associate Professor Faculty of Law, Soka University Introduction Since the 1960s, countries in East Asia have realized strong economic growth, praised as the “East Asian miracle” (World Bank 1993). With Japan as the forerunner, the Asian newly industrialized economies (NIEs, i.e., South Korea, Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Singapore), the Association of Southeast Asian Nations 4 countries (ASEAN-4, i.e., Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, and Thailand), China, and Vietnam have shown a pattern of catch-up development (in that order) known as “the flying-geese pattern” (Kojima 2004). However, since the second half of the 1980s, a number of sub-regional 1 This paper is prepared for an annual conference of the Taiwan/Japan/ Korea Peace Forum, October 7 2018, in Taipei, Republic of China. economic zones (SREZs) have emerged in different areas that span the national borders of East Asia’s coastal regions (see Figure 1). Preceded by institutionalized regional economic zones such as the EU and NAFTA, these de facto SREZs have been formed in conjunction 2 with global markets. Such zones exemplify the characteristic development pattern of East Asia, which varies widely in terms of developmental stages and political systems (Watanabe 1992, Chen and Kwan 1997). SREZs exist in a variety of circumstances and are not defined by uniform economic conditions or formation mechanisms. SREZs in the planning stages can also be seen in economies that have not begun to take off as of yet.

For centuries lifestyle, nutri- tion, natural environment, armies passing through, cultural heritage, and prejudice have affected healthcare in Serbia. Until 1820, Serbia has not had any educated doctor. Fourteen district physicians from 1839 and Dr. Karlo Beloni, to the last one, Dr. Selimir Djordjević – have spent part of their professional careers in Jagodina. All of them have had influence on raising health culture of Jagodina and its population and helped to overcome easily and quickly all existing diseases and epidemics. The Jagodina Hospital has been working without interruption for 147 years and represents one of the oldest healthcare institutions in Serbia. Keywords: health care centre; community medical service; history of medicine; development True men of science revere the past. DEVELOPMENT OF MEDICINE DURING Everything we do and everything we are MEDIEVAL PERIOD is the result of a hundred year’s labor. The first record of the existence of scientific medicine in Ernest Renan (1823–1892) Serbia comes from the early of 12th century, representing the medicine of Hippocrates, Galen, Aristide and other ancient physicians, just like European medicine.

  • Destruction and Human Remains
    Destruction and human remains HUMAN REMAINS AND VIOLENCE Destruction and human remains Destruction and Destruction and human remains investigates a crucial question frequently neglected in academic debate in the fields of mass violence and human remains genocide studies: what is done to the bodies of the victims after they are killed? In the context of mass violence, death does not constitute Disposal and concealment in the end of the executors’ work. Their victims’ remains are often treated genocide and mass violence and manipulated in very specific ways, amounting in some cases to true social engineering with often remarkable ingenuity. To address these seldom-documented phenomena, this volume includes chapters based Edited by ÉLISABETH ANSTETT on extensive primary and archival research to explore why, how and by whom these acts have been committed through recent history. and JEAN-MARC DREYFUS The book opens this line of enquiry by investigating the ideological, technical and practical motivations for the varying practices pursued by the perpetrator, examining a diverse range of historical events from throughout the twentieth century and across the globe. These nine original chapters explore this demolition of the body through the use of often systemic, bureaucratic and industrial processes, whether by disposal, concealment, exhibition or complete bodily annihilation, to display the intentions and socio-political frameworks of governments, perpetrators and bystanders. A NST Never before has a single publication brought together the extensive amount of work devoted to the human body on the one hand and to E mass violence on the other, and until now the question of the body in TTand the context of mass violence has remained a largely unexplored area.

Sr. Martine Predmluva. „Rukoväť" je pre takých, ktorí vedia po slovensky rozprávať a chcú vedeť písať. Stredoslovák, ktorý vyslovuje dvojhlásky ia, ie, m. ô, bez všetkých príprav môže vziať Rukoväť do ruky, lebo sú v nej pravidlá osnované na strednom nárečí slo­ venskom. Naproti tomu príslušníci tých nárečí a podrečí, v ktorých niet dvojhlások ia, ie, iu, ô alebo v ktorých sa vyslovuje dz a c m. písaného ď a ť (ífeakovac m. ďakovaŕ!), musia sa náležité pripraviť. Oni, jak majú potrebu, chuť a vôľu osvojiť si spisovnú reč slovenskú, nech predovšetkým čítavajú také novšie knihy alebo časopisy, ktoré sú správne po slovensky písané. Pre nich sa len potom hodí „Rukoväť". __ Kto sa učí terajšiemu pravopisu slovenskému alebo spisovnej reči vôbec, nech nečíta českých kníh alebo starších slovenských kníh, pokiaľ si neosvojil pravidlá „Rukoväti". Česká reč má inakšiu výslovnosť, a má tedy aj inakšie zákony pravopisné, odchylné od slovenských. Aj staršie knihy a časopisy majú inakší, zastaralý pravo­ pis. Kto tedy súčasne číta knihy české alebo staršie slo­ venské, ten si veľmi obťažuje učenie terajšiemu sloven­ skému pravopisu a jazyku spisovnému. Pokiaľ sa učíš z Rukoväti po slovensky písať, ne­ zabúdaj * 1) že je terajší spisovný jazyk a pravopis slovenský — čo do foriem — odchylný od českého, 2) že je odchylný aj od jazyka starších slovenských kníh a časopisov, 3) že každý z tých spisovných jazykov a pravopisov rozvil sa dla osobitých rozdielnych zákonov, a 4) že tedy čo je dobré dla českého alebo staršieho slovenského pravopisu alebo jazyka spisovného, to je nie dobré dla nového, vykladaného v „Rukoväti".
