  • Peace for Whom: Agency and Intersectionality in Post-War Bosnia and Herzegovina
    Peace for Whom: Agency and Intersectionality in Post-War Bosnia and Herzegovina By Elena B. Stavrevska Submitted to Central European University Doctoral School of Political Science, Public Policy and International Relations In partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Supervisor: Professor Michael Merlingen CEU eTD Collection Budapest, Hungary January 2017 Declaration I hereby declare that this thesis contains no materials accepted for any other degrees, in any other situation. Thesis contains no materials written and/or published by any other person, except when appropriate acknowledgement is made in the form of bibliographical reference. Elena B. Stavrevska Budapest, 09.01.2017 CEU eTD Collection i ABSTRACT Both peacebuilding practice and mainstream literature have predominantly approached the examination of post-war societies is a static and unidimensional manner, portraying events, practices, and actors as fixed in space, time, and identity. In line with that approach, peace and reconciliation have often been understood as a mirror image of the preceding war. Consequently, when the conflict is regarded as a clash between different ethnicities, peace is viewed as a state of those ethnicities coming together, which is then reflected in the decision- and policy-making processes. This understanding, using the prism of groupism whereby (ethnic) groups are analysed as the primary societal actors, ascribed with particular characteristics and agency, presupposes homogeneity of the groups in question. In so doing, it disregards the various intra-group struggles and the multiplicity of social identities beyond ethnicity. Furthermore, it also cements ethnicity as the most important, if not the only important political cleavage in the new, post-war reality.

  • Mad King,The
    EDGAR RICE BURROUGHS THE MAD KING PART I I A RUNAWAY HORSE ALL LUSTADT was in an uproar. The mad king had es- caped. Little knots of excited men stood upon the street corners listening to each latest rumor concerning this most absorbing occurrence. Before the palace a great crowd surged to and fro, awaiting they knew not what. For ten years no man of them had set eyes upon the face of the boy-king who had been hastened to the grim castle of Blentz upon the death of the old king, his father. There had been murmurings then when the lad's uncle, Peter of Blentz, had announced to the people of Lutha the sudden mental affliction which had fallen upon his nephew, and more murmurings for a time after the announcement that Peter of Blentz had been appointed Regent during the lifetime of the young King Leopold, "or until God, in His infinite mercy, shall see fit to restore to us in full mental vigor our beloved monarch." But ten years is a long time. The boy-king had become but a vague memory to the subjects who could recall him at all. There were many, of course, in the capital city, Lustadt, who still retained a mental picture of the handsome boy who had ridden out nearly every morning from the palace gates beside the tall, martial figure of the old king, his father, for a canter across the broad plain which lies at the foot of the mountain town of Lustadt; but even these had long since given up hope that their young king would ever ascend his throne, or even that they should see him alive again.

  • The Cult of the Eagle Metamorphosed- a Semiotic Approach
    I N T E R N A T I O NA L CO N F E R E N C E RCIC’19 Redefining Community in Intercultural Context Vlora, 2-4 May 2019 THE CULT OF THE EAGLE METAMORPHOSED- A SEMIOTIC APPROACH Eleonora HODAJ Department of Foreign Languages, University "Ismail Qemali", Vlora, Albania Abstract: Although the symbols of a country do not necessarily have a vital importance for the welfare of its existence and its priorities do not side with symbolism, it is hard not to consider them as a study element as long as they constitute the DNA of the culture, heritage and history of a certain civilization. A special history is the century- long journey of the symbol of the eagle, mostly due to a deep relationship of various peoples with its cult as a mythical bird. As the numerous archaeological records show, the symbol of the eagle, often referred to as the backbone of the personality of the peoples, has been part of the earliest world cultures. Not in vain, do we encounter it either single or double-headed in Sumerians, Hittites, Persians, Arabs, Romans, Byzantines and Seljuks without forgetting Pelasgians appearing with such representative symbols of the eagle cult. In this long journey of its, the symbol of the eagle has frequently been metamorphosed by converting from one configuration into another. But as a symbol whose natural environment is the flag, what does it represent in the mythology of the respective peoples? Why was it considered a holy bird? Can it be considered as a converging element within the context of cultural structuralism, since its myth or symbol is present everywhere? Through the language of symbols, this paper aims at giving a semiotic insight of the underlying significance that the many metamorphosed versions of this cult acquire on the basis of difference within the cultural context.

  • Sandzak – a Region That Is Connecting Or Dividing Serbia and Montenegro?
    SANDZAK – A REGION THAT IS CONNECTING OR DIVIDING SERBIA AND MONTENEGRO? Sandzak is a region that is divided among Serbia and Montenegro. Six municipalities are in Serbia (Novi Pazar, Sjenica, Tutin, Prijepolje, Priboj and Nova Varoš) and six in Montenegro (Bijelo Polje, Rožaje, Berane, Pljevlja, Gusinje and Plav). On the basis of the 1991 census the number of the inhabitants of Sandzak included 420.000 people – 278.000 in Serbia and 162.000 in Montenegro, of which 54% are Muslims by ethnicity. Sandzak, which is carrying its name after a Turkish word for a military district, constituted a part of the Bosnian Pashalik within the Ottoman Empire until the year 1878. On the Berlin Congress, which was held at the same year, the great powers decided to leave Sandzak within the framework of the Ottoman Empire, but have allowed Austro- Hungary to deploy their forces in a part of this region. Through an agreement between the kings of Serbia Peter I. Karadjordjevic and of Montenegro Nikola I. Petrovic, but thanks to Russia, Serbia and Montenegro took control over Sandzak in the First Balkan War of 1912. Up to the Balkan Wars in 1912 and 1913, Sandzak represented a separate administrative unit with the administration and cultural center being in Novi Pazar. After the end of the Balkan Wars the process of emigration of the Bosniac population to Turkey continued and through the port of Bar left for Turkey in the period between April and June 1914 some 16.500 Bosniacs from the Montenegrin part of Sandzak and some 40.000 from the Serbian part.

  • Mapping of Sandžak
    MAPPING OF SANDŽAK SANDŽAK IN THE REGIONAL CONTEXT: MAPING INFLUENCES AND PROPOSING SOLUTIONS FOR IMPROVEMENT OF THE SOCIO-POLITICAL DEVELOPMENT IN SANDŽAK Belgrade, June 2017 The views expressed in this Policy Paper are those of the author(s) and should not be attributed to the Embassy of the Netherlands 2 INTRODUCTORY REMARKS The present policy paper has been prepared in the framework of the project "Sandžak in a Regional Context - Mapping Influences and Proposing Solutions for Improvement of the Socio-Political Development in Sandžak", funded by the Embassy of the Kingdom of the Netherlands to Serbia. Members of the research project team who were involved in writing the policy paper are: Dušan Janjić, PhD, head of team; Sarina Bakić, MSc; Nebojša Čagorović, PhD; Marija Krstić – Draško; Nadxmedin Spahiu, PhD; Safuadan Plojović, PhD, and Mirjana Rašević, PhD. The main objective of the policy paper is to examine and depict basic trends and features of life in Sandžak, including practices and ceremonies (social gatherings and/or celebrations); institutions and policies that contribute to preserving a concept of "Sandžak"; socio-cultural phenomena and social structures that existed in the past, or exist now or those that can be developed in the future. It is our intention to shed light on the topic of Sandžak; to encourage public debate, i.e. namely to map, inscribe and unveil the Sandžak region on the map of the Western Balkans, and especially of Serbia, Montenegro, Bosnia and Herzegovina and Kosovo; to identify current issues and chart path to the future; to examine whether this could be the "common European future"; and to elaborate the importance of normalization of life in the Western Balkans and mutual relations between the peoples and countries in this region, and thus the normalization of regional cooperation.

  • Ethnic Stereotypes in the Discourse of Former- Yugoslav Tv and Cinema
    UDC Aleksandar Petrović University of Niš Faculty of Philosophy Marija Stepanović University of Niš Faculty of Philosophy ETHNIC STEREOTYPES IN THE DISCOURSE OF FORMER- YUGOSLAV TV AND CINEMA Abstract: This paper is an attempt to analyze particular scenes from the TV series Složna braća and Crni Gruja and the film Balcancan for the purpose of surveying the featured stereotypical representations of former-Yugoslav ethnicities, identifying their roles within the said examples of film and TV discourse, and proving that familiarity with the discursive practices of these particular cultures (discourse communities) is essential for interpreting these artistic discourses (texts) in the manner intended by their authors. Ethnic stereotypes are, therefore, discussed as socio-cultural constructs or myths generated by the discursive practices of a particular culture, as, it is discourses that “bring cultural objects into being by naming them, defining them and delimiting their field of operation” (Stam, Burgoyne and Flitterman-Lewis 2005: 216). They are also viewed as part of a larger structure – a discursive universe comprised of interrelated mythical texts (Johansen and Larsen 2002: 55–56) shaped by former-Yugoslav discourse communities. For this reason, the mentioned texts will be analyzed as sharing the said discursive universe. Key Words: stereotypes, ethnic stereotypes, film discourse, semiotic analysis, discourse analysis, former Yugoslavia, Balkans 1. Introduction This paper is concerned with the discourse analysis of scenes from two former-Yugoslav TV shows, Složna braća and Crni Gruja, and one film, Balcancan, focusing on the role of stereotypical representations of former- Yugoslav ethnicities featured in these instances of artistic discourse. The corpus includes three scenes from the first episode of Složna braća, two from the seventh episode of Crni Gruja, and three from Balcancan.
