To that and Herzegovina, Croatia, end, WWF, together with its partners, will strive to achieve the following targets: Kosovo*, Macedonia, • To introduce examples of how protected areas can generate social Montenegro, Slovenia and economic benefits in cooperation with the local community, and Serbia • To improve cooperation between the protected areas Duration: and the local community in the entire region, October 2015 – • To enhance cooperation between WWF and its partners on the one October 2019 side and decision-makers and those who have impact on them on the other side at the national level. Donor and Value: Swedish International Development WWF will use the examples of socio-economic benefits of well-managed parks, as Cooperation Agency (Sida), well as argumentation and information required for decision-making to encourage 4,200,000 EUR decision-makers from 8 countries in the region to deliver on their promises made under the “Big Win for Dinaric Arc”, a document they adopted in 2013.

    Montenegro Old and New: History, Politics, Culture, and the People

    60 ZuZana Poláčková; Pieter van Duin Montenegro Old and New: History, Politics, Culture, and the People The authors are focusing on how Montenegro today is coming to terms with the task of becoming a modern European nation, which implies recognition not only of democracy, the rule of law, and so forth, but also of a degree of ‘multiculturalism’, that is recognition of the existence of cultural, ethnic, linguistic and religious minorities in a society that is dominated by a Slavic Orthodox majority. In his context they are analyzing the history of the struggle of the Montenegrin people against a host of foreign invaders – after they had ceased to be invaders themselves – and especially their apparently consistent refusal to accept Ottoman sovereignty over their homeland seemed to make them the most remarkable freedom fighters imaginable and led to the creation of a special Montenegrin image in Europe. This im- age of heroic stubbornness and unique martial bravery was even consciously cultivated in Western and Central Europe from the early nineteenth century onwards, as the Greeks, the Serbs, the Montenegrins and other Balkan peoples began to resist the Ottoman Empire in a more effective way and the force of Romantic nationalism began to influence the whole of Europe, from German historians to British politi- cians, and also including Montenegrin and Serbian poets themselves. And what about the present situa- tion? The authors of this essay carried out an improvised piece of investigation into current conditions, attitudes, and feelings on both the Albanian and the Slavic-Montenegrin side (in September 2012). key words: Montenegro; history; multiculturalism; identity; nationalism; Muslim; Orthodox Montenegro (Crna Gora, Tsrna Gora, Tsernagora) is a small country in the Western Balkans region with some 625,000 inhabitants,1 which became an independent nation in 2006 and a can- didate-member of the EU in 2010.

    Hungarian Historical Review 3, no. 3 (2014): 494–528 Antal Molnár A Forgotten Bridgehead between Rome, Venice, and the Ottoman Empire: Cattaro and the Balkan Missions in the Sixteenth and Seventeenth Centuries A key element in the history of the missions that departed from Rome as of the middle of the sixteenth century is the functioning of the mediating structures that ensured the maintenance of the relationship between Rome as the center of the Holy Roman Empire and the territories where the missionaries did their work. On the Dalmatian coast of the Adriatic Sea, Ragusa, which today is the city of Dubrovnik, was the most important bridgehead, but Cattaro, today Kotor, also played a significant role as a point of mediation between Rome and the Ottoman Empire. My intention in this essay is to present the many roles of Cattaro in the region, focusing in particular on its role in the maintenance of communication between Rome and missions to the Balkans. Cattaro never lost its Balkan orientation, even following the weakening of economic ties and the loss of its episcopal jurisdiction, which had extended over parishes in Serbia in the Middle Ages. Rather, in the sixteenth century it grew with the addition of a completely new element. From 1535 to 1786 Cattaro was the most important center of the postal service between Venice and Istanbul. As of 1578, the management of the Istanbul post became the responsibility of the Bolizza family. Thus the family came to establish a wide network of connections in the Balkans. I examine these connections and then offer an analysis of the plans concerning the settlement of the Jesuits in Cattaro.

In order to do this it is convenient .to consider the geology from a tectonic point of view, tectonics being the study of the large scale uplift and subsidence of the earth's crust and the movements along major crusted fractures. The geologic map of Alaska shows a rather orderly arrangement of arcuate metamorphic-igneous belts flanked by late Mesozoic sedi- ments and Cenozeic basins, all expressions of We tectonic frame work. These armate belts are followed or cut at small angles by major arcuate fractures or lineaments which in some areas appear to control the location of igneous intrusive and extrusive rocks and ore deposits. I intend to discuss first the development ef these regional geol-ogic features, and then, a possible relationship of ore districts with them. The whole of Alaska lies within a mobi1.e belt that extends along the Pacific fringe of the North and South American continents. For most Of its length this belt is the transition zone between the Pacific Ocean basin and the continental platforms and along it the crust has been more mobile than in either the ocean areas or on the continent.

The peninsula has an area of 47 km² and is 13 km long. The highest point of the peninsula is Obosnik peak, at 582 m. It has 35 km of coast or 12% of Montenegrin coastline. Activities : Quads, bikes and e-bikes at Lustica Degustation of local products in Organic Olive Farm of Family MORIC The family Moric has an organic olive farm and the main occupation is producing certified organic olive oil in Montenegro, branded as “Moric Organic”. As a family business for more than 3 centuries, the farm is certified by national certification body Monteorganica and registered by Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development of Montenegro. That small farm covers cca 6ha and counts 1000 trees. Most of them are more than 350 years old. Apart of the olive oil, there is also a production of table olives.

Fort Arza was built during the Austro Hungarian period and is located at the entrance to the Herceg Novi bay, on the edge of Luštica peninsula as the tip of the defense against potential conquerors. A firm stone building with a view on the far surroundings, reaching as far as Cape Ostro (Croatian border). Fort Arza was built on a layer of rocks that serve as an eternal protector of this fortress from the force of waves and time.
