Do Not Let Belgrade Drown (Ne Davimo Beograd)
Č Š ć Do not let Belgrade drown (Ne davimo Beograd) Initiative Do not let Belgrade drown was form in 2014 to oppose the Belgrade Waterfront’s project, the consequences and the way the process of planning and the legalizing the project was carried out. It attracted a number of associations, independent organizations, experts, lawyers, academics, journalists, architects and urban planners. Our idea is to stress the importance of popular participation in the development of the city We believe that is possible to build a new kind of solidarity and civic mobilization Giant Duck Becomes Belgrade Resistance Symbol Small-scale actions were followed by mass protests in 2015 and at the beginning of 2016. The watershed moment followed the demolitions of 25 April 2016, when citizens showed up in great numbers to protest, demanding resignations and laying criminal responsibility at the door of officials. We led the biggest civic protests since those that toppled Slobodan Milošević in 2000. Movement transformed into political organization which participated in the local elections. Key achievement is positioning of the topics of urban development and citizen participation in decision making process as one of most important issues in public sphere in Belgrade. Local elections, march 2018. We independently took part in Belgrade elections on March 4, 2018 as a citizen list under the name "Initiative Do not let Belgrade drown - Yellow Duck - Our City, Our City - Ksenija Radovanovic", presenting a program of 20 points. Support was provided by other local movements from Serbia, as well as Janis Varufakis, DIEM25, Ada Colau, Ska Keller, “Zagreb je nas” movement.

Geographical Index of Concentration As an Indicator of the Spatial Distribution of Tourist Attractions in Belgrade
TURIZAM Volume 25, Issue 1 45–54 (2021) ORIGINAL SCIENTIFIC PAPER Geographical Index of Concentration as an Indicator of the Spatial Distribution of Tourist Attractions in Belgrade Sanja PavlovićA, Radmila JovanovićB Received: July 2020 | Accepted: March 2021 DOI: 10.5937/turizam25-27553 Abstract The spatial structure of tourist attractions can be presented both qualitatively and quanti- tatively. One of the indicators of the spatial structure of tourism is the index of geographi- cal concentration of tourist attractions. The geographical concentration of tourist attractions represents the ratio of the number of tourist attractions in the observed area and its struc- tural parts and the total number of structural units of the analyzed area. This paper aims to determine the spatial distribution of attractions in the administrative territories of Belgrade municipalities and to establish correlations with tourist attendance. The number and spatial distribution of accommodation capacities are the largest in the central city municipalities so that the number of visitors is the largest in them. At the same time, the central city municipal- ities have the highest concentration of tourist attractions. For data collection, the authors used field research, OSM (Open Street Maps), Google maps, with software processing ArcGIS 10.2. The research results enabled the definition of the model of distribution of tourist attractions and indicated its application. This model of distribution of tourist attractions shows that they are mostly concentrated in the city center. This also means a small spatial connection of tour- ist attractions in the city center and peripheral parts. Keywords: tourist attractions, spatial distribution, geographical index, Belgrade Introduction The competition of tourist values in an area, among other things, relies on the structure of the tourist resource.

Serbia 2020 OSAC Crime & Safety Report
Serbia 2020 OSAC Crime & Safety Report This is an annual report produced in conjunction with the Regional Security Office at the U.S. Embassy in Belgrade. OSAC encourages travelers to use this report to gain baseline knowledge of security conditions in Serbia. For more in-depth information, review OSAC’s Serbia country page for original OSAC reporting, consular messages, and contact information, some of which may be available only to private-sector representatives with an OSAC password. Travel Advisory The current U.S. Department of State Travel Advisory at the date of this report’s publication assesses Serbia at Level 2, indicating travelers should exercise increased caution due to crime. Review OSAC’s report, Understanding the Consular Travel Advisory System. Overall Crime and Safety Situation Crime Threats The U.S. Department of State has assessed Belgrade as being a HIGH-threat location for crime directed at or affecting official U.S. government interests. The considerable risk from crime is due to the activities of Organized Crime (OC) groups, as Serbia is a main trafficking route from the east to Europe. Rival OC groups target each other in a competitive market, as an ongoing turf war between OC groups over drug distribution rights, resulting in violence to include assassination by firearms and explosives. In 2019, there was one OC-related attempted murder and six OC-related murders in Serbia, a significant decrease from the previous year. None of these murders resulted in a criminal conviction, and most lack even a single suspect. All seven involved firearms. Local media reporting notes that in 2018, 35-40 OC attacks occurred in Belgrade, most involving firearms or car bombs.

Transition of Collective Land in Modernistic Residential Settings in New Belgrade, Serbia
land Article Transition of Collective Land in Modernistic Residential Settings in New Belgrade, Serbia Milica P. Milojević*, Marija Maruna and Aleksandra Djordjević Faculty of Architecture, University of Belgrade, 11000 Belgrade, Serbia; [email protected] (M.M.); [email protected] (A.D.) * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 30 September 2019; Accepted: 15 November 2019; Published: 16 November 2019 Abstract: Turbulent periods of transition from socialism to neoliberal capitalism, which have affected the relationships between holders of power and governing structures in Serbia, have left a lasting impact on the urban spaces of Belgrade’s cityscape. The typical assumption is that the transformation of the urban form in the post-socialist transition is induced by planning interventions which serve to legitimize these neoliberal aspirations. The methodological approach of this paper is broadly structured as a chronological case analysis at three levels: the identification of three basic periods of institutional change, historical analysis of the urban policies that permitted transformation of the subject area, and morphogenesis of the selected site alongside the Sava River in New Belgrade. Neoliberal aspirations are traced through the moments of destruction and moments of creation as locally specific manifestations of neoliberal mechanisms observable through the urban form. Comparison of all three levels of the study traces how planning and political decisions have affected strategic directions of development and, consequently, the dynamics and spatial logic of how new structures have invaded the street frontage. The paper demonstrates that planning interventions in the post-socialist transition period, guided by the neoliberal mechanisms, has had a profound impact on the super-block morphology.
