Sveučilište U Zagrebu Faculty of Philosophy University of Zagreb Chair of Anthropology DUAL SUBJECT UNDERGRADUATE STUDY IN ANTHROPOLOGY PROGRAM CURRICULUM Zagreb, may 2005. 1. Introduction a) Reasons for the making of the study According to tradition of European universities anthropology belongs to natural and social sciences and humanities alike. Accordingly the study was organized at the Faculty of philosophy in the form of an under graduate study under the wing of humanities while the post graduate study was organized partially on the Natural science faculty at the department of Biology under the branch of biological anthropology, and partially at the Faculty of Philosophy in the field of Cultural Anthropology as a part of the postgraduate study ethnology and cultural anthropology. The nature of anthropology is holistic, as well as the growing complexity in the culture-biology relation (cultural consequences of molecular biology and bio-technology) are the main reasons for making the study of Anthropology as a self sustained holistic discipline. b) Current proposal experiences in making similar or equivalent programs Anthropology as a holistic science which envelops branches and disciplines which share the man as an object of their study, was available for enrollment for the first time as an undergraduate study in the year 2000/2001 in Croatia.To make the study possible a Chair of Anthropology was formed on the 9-th of December year 1998 on the Faculty of Philosophy in Zagreb. By bringing the Science and Higher Education Act (Narodne novine no.123 from 31.07.2003.) together with the urging need for coordination of the curriculum with the Bologna declaration (3+2+3 systems), serious changes in organization of study had to be done. The major change was in reorganizing the undergraduate study in Anthropology, at the Faculty of Philosophy, according to a new 3+2 system, and adding the postgraduate (doctoral) study in Anthropology. Students can enroll in the postgraduate study after successfully completing undergraduate and graduate studies. The duration of the postgraduate study is three years by the end of which student attain the doctoral degree. According to the above stated, and the need for Anthropology to be immanent at the highest level of education, as it is the case in European universities, we propose a reorganized program study in Anthropology which is fully compatible with the 3+2+2 system. This program is a product of the joint work of the members of the Chair of Anthropology of the Faculty of Philosophy i.e. employees of the Institute for Anthropology and Faculty of Philosophy. Based on to the former experience in conducting a postgraduate study at a master's level (field: Biology; branch: Biological anthropology), and according to the objective abilities of undergraduate, graduate and postgraduate study at the University of Zagreb (at the Faculty of Philosophy) we think that we can offer serious and high-quality program of study. The program is fully compatible with Bologna declaration and offered on three levels: undergraduate study in Anthropology, graduate study in Anthropology and postgraduate study in Anthropology. ANTHROPOLOGY STUDY PROGRAM (may 2005) Page: 2 Our proposal of the study was made according to the requirements of the Bologna declaration, oriented towards contemporary anthropology and fully compatible with other Anthropology studies across Europe. c) Possible partners outside the school system The professional profile of a graduated anthropologist enables him a vital role in any research project in which a society-science-technology relation is being researched, as well as on any institute that regulates human – environment relations. Furthermore the anthropology has a vital role in researching of cultural processes, ecological processes and the research of public opinion as well as in various expert teams working joined with various Ministries, other government institutions and various agencies dealing in specific social, cultural and human environment issues. We must note that one of the most recent fields where anthropologists have been very active is tied closely to intense educational science development, and widening the educational process to a life long process. This of course brings new issues demanding scientific, expert monitoring and anthropology is specialized in making experts in that field. Research, science and lecturing cooperation is available with these partners (outside the school system): scientific institutes and various professional organizations relating faculties and departments national and international alike. d) Study support for student mobility As there is no discipline where its object study would b adequately analyzed without aspects of anthropology it is clear that an under graduate study of anthropology is desirable for study progress in various fields, (especially humanist and biotechnology sciences). That is the main reason why in this program many lectures are proposed which are interdisciplinary in their nature and therefore available to students of almost all faculties and departments. We must keep in mind that anthropological aspects have held their place in a very large number of study programs, not only socially – humanistic but biological, technical, medicinal and various other sciences. Accordingly we expect the subjects and courses we are proposing to be enrolled by students of other study groups as well as students of anthropology. We are expecting our own under graduate students to be expertise in various other study groups and studies. Let us note that our courses are available to students of various fields and profiles. Respecting the principle of mobility we are proposing a program which will enable our students to choose and interdisciplinary connect contents of various fields, as we expect students of other fields will choose a variety of classes we offer as elective.

Educational institution Chair of Anthropology of the Faculty of Philosophy, University of Zagreb and the Institute of Anthropology in Zagreb 2.3. Study duration Under graduate study 6 semesters (3 years). 2.4 Enrollment requirements Enrollment requirements for the dual subject under graduate study: - Obtained highschool education passed classification exam or secondary school final state exam, according to the law propositions and the propositions of the University of the faculty of Philosophy. Enrollment requirements for the dual subject graduate study: - Finished the dual subject under graduate study of anthropology on the Faculty of Philosophy in Zagreb , or any other compatible study 2.5 Under graduate study of anthropology a) Duration of the undergraduate study and its academic title: Under graduate study of anthropology lasts for six months, and the students who finish it obtain the academic title «baccalaurea/baccalaureus of human sciences, in anthropology b) Goals of the under graduate study of anthropology: The primary goal of the study is for its students to master the knowledge of anthropology. Knowledge can formally be graded by acting (instrumental knowledge) and the attained understanding of the world. In our present information era, speaking of knowledge we understand it as a network of data which have survived by evolution trough its use for human environment. Such understanding of knowledge gives us an understanding of existing theoretical boundaries in which such a network is formed. Students of the undergraduate study must understand the basic elements of anthropology and value their theoretic correspondence to make them able to recognize and understand ANTHROPOLOGY STUDY PROGRAM (may 2005) Page: 4 the differences of human structuring and acting which spring from them. Accordingly the under graduate study makes its students able to understand and influence the complexity of specific localities and their population from an anthropologic point of view. Completing the course students gain the knowledge which enables them to actively participate in anthropology’s researches. Furthermore after the completed study students will develop a skill of recognizing the evolutional characteristics and connections between biological and sociocultural phenomena. Finishing the study they become capable of making an expert judgement of the credibility of social activity, and they become able to participate in the processes of social planning. Finishing the under graduate study students also achieve possibilities to continue graduate study of anthropology, ethnology and similar studies. 3. Study program description 3.1.

Despite their common, origin, Croatia and Slovenia have very different cultures and traditions, different systems of education, and very different systems of adult education. Most of the differences between the two countries' adult education systems lie not in the organizational models of their education networks but rather in their adult education systems' range, programs, material and technical equipment, funding systems, and accessibility to potential users. Both countries' adult education systems share the same goals, including providing adults with employment-related educational services; enhance their leisure time; and gain qualifications relevant to the areas of economic, technological, cultural, social, and individual development.

As Croatia inherited from the former Socialist Federative Republic of Yugoslavia the system of the protection of rights of the minorities immediately after gaining independence, it provided a model of the realisation of minority rights. That model guaranteed minorities the right for education in their own language, the right to the official use of their language and alphabet, the right to publishing in their mother tongue, acess to the media, protection of cultural treasures and their entire cultural heritage, various venues of preservation of ethnic, language and religious identity and the representation of minority interests. Key words: Republic of Croatia, minorities, minority rights, democratic principles 1. Introduction agreements related to the protection of human and minority rights such as the European Convention on By its Constitution, the Republic of Croatia Human Rights, the European Charter of Local Self- bounds itself to protection of the minorities from any government,Charter on Regional and Minority Lan- discrimination.

Executive Summary This report aggregates information on existing European incentives for biogas plants compared with the national development of the biogas sector. A variety of different factors (socio-economic, political, technological) are likely to have an impact on the development of biogas production, which makes it difficult to assess the influence of national support schemes on biogas production. The data gathered for 30 different countries suggest that a mere 71.0% of the 2015 biogas production was likely to have been caused by the main support scheme in the country, with an average of 3 years lag time between the start of the main support scheme (SS) and a significant rise in biogas production (average for FiT). This 71% share is likely to be much higher in practive, given that: - this estimate could not be done for some countries such as the UK (14.4% of EU biogas production) because of the variety of support schemes in place; - the effects of subsidies, tax incentives and secondary SS (other than the main one in the country) on the biogas production development have not been considered.
