As you can see from the papers, workshops, and panel discussions listed in our program, the field of system dynamics is thriving. Your fellow attendees come from 40 countries and from many different institutional settings. We hope that you will enjoy the program, make new acquaintances, and renew ties with old friends. Over the next three and one-half days you will have a chance to sample system dynamics work by leading practitioners in a variety of application areas. The 250 scheduled presentations are broken down into 25 parallel sessions, 18 poster sessions, 13 workshops, and 4 plenary sessions. We grouped the presentations by topic to help you identify sessions of greatest interest. This year’s program also includes a special tribute to Dana Meadows who passed away since our last conference in Bergen, Norway. To increase your enjoyment of the conference, we have scheduled several special events including a welcome reception, a conference banquet with live music, a southern cookout with roving singers, our first-ever pool tournament, lunch tours at the US Centers for Disease Control, and a fireside chat with Jay W. Forrester. We welcome those who may be accompanying conference participants but not attending the formal sessions. We hope that you will take part in the special events, feel at home in the conference center facilities, and enjoy the attractions of Atlanta. This year over 100 reviewers screened and categorized submissions. Dozens more volunteers put in many hours to ensure a successful conference. Without their help our conference would be impossible. A special thanks goes to all who helped. We hope you find the conference rewarding. If we can do anything to assist you, please tell the conference staff. Thank you for joining us.

  • Civil-Military Features of the FRY
    Civil-Military Features of the FRY 18. november 2002. - Dr Miroslav Hadzic Dr Miroslav Hadžić Faculty of Political Science Belgrade / Centre for Civil-Military Relations Occasional paper No.4 The direction of the profiling of civilian military relations in Serbia/FR Yugoslavia1 is determined by the situational circumstances and policies of the participants of different backgrounds and uneven strength. The present processes however, are the direct product of consequence of the disparate action of parties from the Democratic Opposition of Serbia (DOS) coalition, which have ruled the local political scene since the ousting of Milošević. It was their mediation that introduced the war and authoritarian heritage to the political scene, making it an obstacle for changing the encountered civil-military relations. The ongoing disputes within the DOS decrease, but also conceal the fundamental reasons for the lack of pro-democratic intervention of the new authorities in the civil-military domain. Numerous military and police incidents and affairs that have marked the post-October period in Serbia testify to this account.2 The incidents were used for political confrontation within the DOS instead as reasons for reform. This is why disputes regarding the statues of the military, police and secret services, as well as control of them have been reduced to the personal and/or political conflict between FRY President Vojislav Koštunica and Serbian Premier Zoran Djindjić.3 However, the analysis of the "personal equation" of the most powerful DOS leaders may reveal only differences in their political shade and intonation, but cannot reveal the fundamental reasons why Serbia has remained on the foundations of Milošević’s system.

  • SIGNALIZAM U FONDOVIMA BIBLIOTEKE SANU Posebna Biblioteka Miroljuba TODOROVIĆA (PB 19)
    SIGNALIZAM U FONDOVIMA BIBLIOTEKE SANU Posebna biblioteka Miroljuba TODOROVIĆA (PB 19) Biblioteka SANU osnovana je Ustavom i ustrojenijem Društva srpske slovesnosti od 7. novembra 1841. godine. Razvijajući se u sklopu Društva, menjala je i svoj naziv u skladu sa izmenama naziva Društva. Od 1864. godine bila je Biblioteka Srpskog učenog društva, potom, od 1886. Biblioteka Srpske kraljevske akademije, 1945. postala je Biblioteka Srpske akademije nauka, da bi 1960. godine dobila sadašnji naziv – Biblioteka Srpske akademije nauka i umetnosti. Dimitrije Tirol, član Društva srpske slovesnosti i dobrotvor srpskog naroda, poklonio je 1842. godine Društvu u dva maha 89 knjiga koje su predstavljale početni fond Biblioteke, i tada je ona i počela sa radom. Početni fond uvećavan je poklonima i izdanjima društva, ustanovljena je razmena sa domaćim i inostranim akademijama i naučnim društvima. Kupovina knjiga počela je 1851. godine. Biblioteka je delimično otvorena za javnost 1952. godine U ovom momentu, može se govoriti o fondu od 1.300.000 jedinica knjižne i neknjižne građe od čega je preko 60% na stranim jezicima. U elektronskoj bazi postoji 125.000 zapisa. U okviru ovako bogatog fonda, osobit značaj pridaje se tzv. posebnim bibliotekama . To su ponajčešće zapravo biblioteke-legati, primljene poklonom ili testamentom, a samo u iznimnim slučajevima biblioteke koje su kupovane na osnovu posebnih odluka SANU. Njih u ovom trenutku ima 36, i svaka je na svoj način presek ne samo jednog vremena već i života, interesovanja i opusa velikih stvaralaca na svim poljima ljudske delatnosti. Na knjigama tih biblioteka nalaze se posvete koje govore o dinamičnim i dramatičnim stvaralačkim prijateljstvima. Jasno je da kao takve postaju teško procenljive.

  • Terrorist Threats by Balkans Radical Islamist to International Security
    Darko Trifunović1 Оригинални научни рад University of Belgrade UDK 323.285:28]:355.02(497) Serbia Milan Mijalkovski2 University of Belgrade Serbia TERRORIST THREATS BY BALKANS RADICAL ISLAMIST TO INTERNATIONAL SECURITY Abstract The decade-long armed conflict in the Balkans from 1991 to 2001, greatly misrepresented in the Western public, were the biggest defeat for the peoples of the former Yugoslavia, a great defeat for Europe - but a victory for global jihad. Radical Islamists used the wars to recruit a large number of Sunni Muslims in the Balkans (Bosnian and Herzagovina and Albanian) for the cause of political Islam and militant Jihad. Converts to Wahhabi Islam not only provide recruits for the so-called “White Al-Qaeda,” but also exhibit growing territorial claims and seek the establishment of a “Balkan Caliphate.” Powers outside the Balkans re- gard this with indifference or even tacit approval. Radical Islamist activity is en- dangering the security of not only Serbia, Macedonia, Montenegro and Bosnia- Herzegovina, but also Europe and the world. Key Words: Balkans, Wahhabi, Salafi, radical Islamist, terrorism, Al-Qaeda Introduction In order to understand correctly the ongoing processes in the Islamic circles in the Balkans, it is necessary to understand all processes that occurred and occur in the Middle East and its circles of Islamic fundamentalists. Balkans’ groups of Islamic fundamentalists are inextricably connected with organizations of Islamic fundamentalists originating from the Middle East. Early as 1989, Prof. dr Miroljub Jevtić, one of the most eminent political scientists of religion, had been warning on danger and connection of the Middle East Islamic fundamen- talists with the ones on the Balkans sharing the same ideas3.

Department of Political Science, June 2011. ADVISOR: Robert Hislope Over the past several decades there has been an influx of countries becoming democracies. Post-communist Eastern Europe, developing Africa, and Latin America are only three regions that have been working towards democratic governments, some being more successful than others. There are many theories that attempt to explain why some countries are able to successfully transition to a democracy while others fail. In my senior thesis, I focus on elitism versus the power of the masses. For most of transitology history, elites have been viewed as the prominent actor in democratization.

  • Rural Tourism – Serbia’S Missed Chance
    RURAL TOURISM – SERBIA’S MISSED CHANCE Review article Economics of Agriculture 2/2016 UDC: 338.48-44(1-22) (497.11) RURAL TOURISM – SERBIA’S MISSED CHANCE Miroljub Đenadić1, Bela Muhi2, Dušan V. Jovanović3 Summary Rural tourism is both old and new phenomenon. The interest for recreation in the countryside began to grow as early as XIX century, as a reaction to the pressure of growing urbanization and industrialization. Serbia has great potentials for development of rural tourism. Natural beauty in combination with culture, tradition, festivals, gastronomic specialties and music, might become recognizable tourist brand, which could contribute to the significant monetary influx and improve the overall image of the country. However, current level of Serbia’s competitiveness in the area of rural tourism is not particularly high, regardless of the fact that all of the natural, cultural and social prerequisites for its development already exist (natural potentials, significant farming land, great number of agriculturally active population, traditional approach to agriculture, lack of ground pollution as well as the possibility of producing „healthy food“, good potential for development of complementary activities such as hiking, recreation, hunting, fishing, riding and participating in everyday activities of the country folk, traditional local gastronomical specialties etc.). The goal of this paper is to show the resources of Serbia in the area of rural tourism as well as the possible development potentials of this form of tourism. Key words: Rural tourism, village tourism, agrotourism, sustainable development, Serbia JEL: Q26, L83, R41 1 Miroljub Đenadić, Ph.D, Lecturer, Higher Professional School of Agricultural Studies, Vojvode Putnika Street no.

  • Kako Je Avangarda Posetila Novi
    Kako je avangarda posetila Novi Sad: časopis Út i prva (i jedina) dadaistička matineja Avangardni pokreti i strujanja na kulturnoj i pre svega književnoj sceni Novoga Sada, tokom 20. veka, javili su se u dva navrata. Najpre je to bilo dvadesetih godina prošlog veka, u tzv. „deceniji avangarde“, koju su premrežili mnogobrojni i raznovrsni –izmi, a potom na prelomu šezdesetih i sedamdesetih godina u obliku „novih umetničkih praksa“, kao deo političkih, društvenih i kulturnih previranja koja su zahvatila ceo svet. U oba slučaja radilo se o neformalnim grupama mladih umetnika čije poetike, odstupajući i oponirajući dominantnoj književnoj matrici, zastupaju novo shvatanje smisla i misije umetnosti i stoga ostaju na margini kulturne i umetničke scene. U prvoj polovini veka nove poetike i novi modeli umetničkog delovanja stigli su sa talasom emigracije mađarskih intelektualaca i umetnika, mimo avangardnih grupa koje su već delovale u Beogradu, Zagrebu i Ljubljani, mada su s njima, u najboljoj tradiciji avangardnog aktivizma, odmah uspostavili saradnju. S druge strane, šezdesetih godina, potreba za raskidom sa aktuelnim umetničkim obrascima razvila se spontano i autohtono među mladim novosadskim umetnicima, doduše ne bez veze sa događajima na svetskoj kulturnoj sceni i umetničkom scenom u drugim delovima zemlje. U oba slučaja radilo se o nevelikim grupama i o relativno kratkom vremenskom periodu njihovog delovanja, svega nekoliko godina, koje su se ugasile ili zaćutale bilo zbog promene političkih okolnosti ili zbog oštrine političke reakcije, koje su ove umetnike naterale da se povuku u druge, stvarne ili fiktivne prostore. Krajem Prvog svetskog rata raspala se Austro-ugarska monarhija i mirovnim ugovorima kojima su stvorene nove nacionalne države prekrojena je geografska karta ovog dela Evrope.

Među hrvatskim književnicima koji u doba Austro-Ugarske Monarhije pišu djela s vjerskom tematikom ističe se šokački Hrvat Grga Andrin te bunjevački Hrvati Ante Evetović Miroljub i Ivan Petreš.

  • State Capture and Widespread Corruption in Serbia
    State Capture and Widespread Corruption in Serbia CEPS Working Document No. 262/March 2007 Vesna Pesic Abstract Large-scale systemic state capture, which is the root of widespread corruption, is acquiring such proportions in Serbia that it may undermine the success of its transition. ‘State capture’ is defined as any group or social strata, external to the state, that seizes decisive influence over state institutions and policies for its own interests and against the public good. The appropriation of state institutions and functions by the political party leadership is being carried out at an alarming rate in Serbia, as supported by research data in this paper by Vesna Pesic, an International Policy Research Fellow. The phenomenon of state capture is explored in depth looking at its background, prevalence and variety of mechanisms in Serbia today. The author concludes with policy options and recommendations to help curb corruption, address the deep mistrust expressed by the Serbian people about their political system, and to pave the way for democratic transition.
