  • Anniversary of the Illyrian Provinces EUROPEAN ELECTIONS 2009 Contents Veronika Stabej History and the Future
    ISSN 1854-0805 (business culture environment politics sports) 05 May 09 200th ANNIVERSARY OF THE ILLYRIAN PROVINCES EUROPEAN ELECTIONS 2009 contents Veronika Stabej History and the future It is not a very common occurrence for nations to celebrate and mark a historical period in which they did not enjoy their own sovereignty and they were a part of some other state formation. Between 1809 and 1813, the present territory of Slovenia found itself under the brief French authority of the Illyrian Provinces, and despite the fact that it was not equally favoured among all strata of the population, it contributed powerfully to raising Slovenian national consciousness and the awareness of freedoms, as well as giving credence to the Slovenian language. The short-lived period of French rule also importantly established the first seeds of Slovenian-French relations. The linden tree that was planted at that time in the Ljubljana Botanical Garden is still alive and thriving today. As a gesture underpinning the friendship and cooperation between the two nations, Slovenian Prime Minister Borut Pahor and French Prime Minister François Fillon, who was on his first official visit to Slovenia in the middle of May, planted a new linden, which we believe will remind the future generations of Slovenian-French friendly ties. 25 Culture 32-35 Slovenian delights Alongside historical achievements, scientific achievements are Alpine flowers in Bohinj Primorska, scent of the Mediterranean of course also very important for our future. We would agree that knowledge must become our fundamental value.

  • The Case of Dubrovnik-Neretva County
    Journal of Business Paradigms Vol 4 No 2, 2019 THE IMPLEMENTATION OF FACEBOOK IN DESTINATION MARKETING: THE CASE OF DUBROVNIK-NERETVA COUNTY Lorena Bašan1 Faculty of Tourism and Hospitality Management, Croatia Matea Ban Faculty of Tourism and Hospitality Management, Croatia Review Manuscript Received October 20th 2019 Manuscript Accepted December 25th 2019 ABSTRACT Since the emergence and rapid development of the Internet and its implementation in companies within the tourism and hospitality industry, Internet marketing has become a vital marketing tool. Social media, in particular, are one of the most important media in Internet communication and an integral part of a large number of business entities, including those related to tourism. Many tourist destinations that understand the importance of social media as a source of information in the phase of tourist-destination selection and recognise the opportunities social media provide are using social networks to communicate and interact with tourists. Thus, the purpose of this paper is to determine the implementation level of Facebook as the most often used networking site in destination marketing. The paper is based on empirical research conducted in Dubrovnik-Neretva County using content analysis. Results obtained by this study allow decision makers in destination marketing to implement Facebook in a more efficient way, by exploiting the underutilized advantages of social media to gain a competitive advantage in the contemporary tourist market and achieve better business results in the future. 1 Address correspondence to Lorena Bašan Associate Professor, Faculty of Tourism and Hospitality Management, Department of Marketing, Opatija, Croatia, E-mail: [email protected] 46 The Implementation Of Facebook In Destination Marketing Bašan L., Ban M.
