    OPENING: 25 May, 20.00 BIO 25 Talk: 25 May, 19.00 From 25 May to 29 October 2017 , FARAWAY, SO CLOSE will present seven site-specific interventions along with the exhibition, accompanied by Associated Projects with a lively program of events, exhibits and lectures that will animate the seven locations for the duration of the Biennial. The exhibition will be officially opened by guest of honor, Anton Peršak, Minister of Culture of the Republic of Slovenia . A talk with the curators of the biennial, Angela Rui and Maja Vardjan , and guests Renata Salecl, Simone Farresin , and James Westcott will be held before the official opening at 19.00 The talk will be moderated by James Taylor Foster . Curated by Angela Rui and Maja Vardjan, and organised by the Museum of Architecture and Design in Ljubljana, 25th Biennial of Design FARAWAY, SO CLOSE responds to the observation that although the city remains the model within which the evolution of contemporary society is discussed and interpreted, we are recently witnessing a growing percentage of people that leave the city for other contexts and environments. The Biennial develops from the physical exploration of seven conditions all over Slovenia on which designers were invited to reflect. This is a contemporary phenomenon characteristic of our era: young, informed and emancipated people who have grown up within urban models bring their values into non-urban spaces. The theoretical appropriation of the so-called Alter-urban within the context of BIO 25 has been made possible by the de-centralization of the biennial itself, together with the physical observation and response of the participants.

  • ANNUAL REPORT on the SLOVENIAN REAL PROPERTY MARKET for 2012
    ANNUAL REPORT ON THE SLOVENIAN REAL PROPERTY MARKET for 2012 Surveying and Mapping Authority of the Republic of Slovenia March 2013 TABLE OF CONTENTS 2 ANNUAL REPORT ON THE SLOVENIAN REAL PROPERTY MARKET FOR 2012 In 2012, the global economy started to show clear signs of slipping back into recession. Many countries, especially in Europe, fell into double-dip recession. The recession in economies facing debt crisis further worsened. A number of economies, including our own, found themselves caught in a spiral of growing unemployment and a declining curve of aggregate demand as a result of harsh austerity measures, the countries’ weak financial systems, and a decrease in global trade and investment flows. This economic and financial situation also hit global real property markets. In the US, enhanced economic growth resulted in increased construction activ- ity, and for the first time in four years real property prices saw an annual rise. The biggest Asian markets continued the trends established in 2011, though with considerably reduced force. India saw further and substantial increases in real property prices, while prices in China and Japan fell slightly. Among the largest global markets, Brazil experienced the highest real property price growth, despite an overall slowdown in economic growth. The European real property market has shown no major shifts in the last two years. The sharpest drops in real property prices have so far been recorded in countries affected by the debt crisis and economic recession (Greece, Spain, Portugal and Ireland). Given the trends in real property prices, Croatia and Slo- venia are on their way to joining this group of countries.

    University of Nova Gorica Laboratory for Environmental Research Vipavska 13, POB 301 5001 Nova Gorica, Slovenia Project: Transeconet IDENTITIES AND STRATEGIES – RAISING AWARNESS WP6.1 Report Perception of Landscape Changes Authors: Gregor Torkar and Romina Rodela Nova Gorica, 2011 Abstract: This report aims to map out local peoples’ perception of landscape changes in the Pomurje region. To this end it reports on the historical and recent perception of landscape change, on the main processes driving landscape changes, but also it reports on people perceptions about Pomurje as a cross-border area, and on knowledge people have about the ecological networks. Qualitative data informs us that a combination of geomorphologic, socioeconomic, cultural, and historic factors have shaped the Pomurje landscape and have influenced land use patterns in the region. As from respondents’ narratives the emergence of agricultural modernization and policy trends, present in the country after the World War II, appear to have most influenced the landscape and the rural lifestyle in Pomurje. Of a particular relevance are the impacts that the state border (its closure/openness) had on local development dynamics. Key words: ecological networks, perception of landscape change, landscape, Pomurje region Povzetek: V poro čilu predstavljamo, kako lokalni prebivalci Pomurske regije zaznavajo spremembe v kulturni krajini. V poro čilu poro čamo o njihovem zaznavanju preteklega in današnjega stanja v krajini ter o glavnih dejavnikih, ki spreminjajo krajino. V poro čilu tudi predstavljamo, kako ljudje zaznavajo Pomurje v povezavi s čezmejnimi obmo čji, ter njihovo poznavanje in razumevanje ekoloških mrež. Pridobljeni kvalitativni podatki kažejo na kombinacijo geomorfoloških, socioekonomskih, kulturnih in zgodovinskih dejavnikov, ki so oblikovali krajino v Pomurju in vplivali na vzorce rabe prostora v regiji.

  • MIN-LANG PR 2005 4 E 2Nd Periodical Report Slovenia
    Strasbourg, 13 June 2005 MIN-LANG/PR (2005) 4 EUROPEAN CHARTER FOR REGIONAL OR MINORITY LANGUAGES Second Periodical Report presented to the Secretary General of the Council of Europe in accordance with Article 15 of the Charter SLOVENIA Introduction 1. The Slavic people settled on the territories of the present Slovenia and some neighbouring countries at the end of 6 th century. The Slovene people are a particular national entity within the Slavic linguistic group. Ancestors of the present day Slovene people were integrated in other states through most of the history. On the basis of the first democratic elections in April 1990 and the plebiscite in December 1990, the Republic of Slovenia declared its independence on 25 June 1991, following the dissolution of the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia. Organisation of the State: Pursuant to the Slovene Constitution, adopted on 23 December 1991, Slovenia is a parliamentary democracy. The Constitution is the highest legal act, which was adopted and can be amended by the National Assembly in a special procedure (requiring a two-third majority). Other legal instruments are (in the hierarchical order): laws adopted by the National Assembly; ordinances for the implementation of acts, adopted by the Government; regulations, directives and orders adopted by ministries for the implementation of acts and government's ordinances; regulations of local self- governing authorities on matters within their competence. The Republic of Slovenia is represented by the President of the Republic, who is also the commander-in- chief of the Slovene defence forces. President is elected in direct elections for a five-year term and may be elected for a maximum of two consecutive terms.

  • Police and Roma Communities in Slovenia: an Evaluation of the Community Policing Approach

Policing multicultural communities presents challenges for contemporary policing. Historically and currently, the interactions between police and multicultural communities are often strained due to language barriers, cultural misperceptions on both sides, fear of outside authority figures on the part of marginalized groups etc. The Roma population, Europe’s largest minority, is a target of persistent persecution from each and every power in history and even in the present times, not only in countries that lack democratic tradition, but also in countries which consider themselves cradles of democracy. The first record of the Roma people in Slovenia goes back to the 14 th century. Statistics show that approximately 3.200 Roma people live in Slovenia, but the actual number varies between 11.000 and 12.000. In Slovenia, the Roma community is a minority community recognized by the Constitution as a special community or minority with particular ethnic and cultural characteristics (its own language, culture and history). The constitutional provision was realized by the adoption of the Roma Community in the Republic of Slovenia Act (2007).
