  • Ian Rae: “Two Croatian Chemists Who Were Awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry”
    Croatian Studies Review 13 (2017) Ian Rae: “Two Croatian Chemists who were Awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry” Ian Rae School of Chemistry University of Melbourne [email protected] Abstract Two organic chemists of Croatian origin, Leopold Ružička and Vladimir Prelog, made significant contributions to natural product chemistry during the twentieth century. They received their university education and research training in Germany and Czechoslovakia, respectively. Both made their careers in Zürich, Switzerland, and both shared the Nobel Prize in Chemistry, in 1939 and 1975, respectively. In this article, I have set the details of their lives and achievements against the education and research climates in Europe and other regions, especially as they apply to the field of chemistry. Key words: Croatia, organic, chemistry, Nobel, Ružička, Prelog 31 Croatian Studies Review 13 (2017) Introduction1 In the twentieth century two organic chemists of Croatian origin were awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry. They were Lavoslav (Leopold) Ružička (1887-1976) and Vladimir Prelog (1906-1998), whose awards came in 1939 and 1975, respectively. Both were living and working in Switzerland at the time of the awards and it was in that country – specifically in the city of Zürich – that they performed the research that made them Nobel Laureates. To understand the careers of Ružička and Prelog, and of many other twentieth century organic chemists, we need to look back to the nineteenth century when German chemists were the leaders in this field of science. Two developments characterise this German hegemony: the introduction of the research degree of Doctor of Philosophy (PhD), and the close collaboration between organic chemists in industry and university.

  • The Allied Presence on Vis 1943-45 15 Jul 43 a C-47A
    The Allied Presence on Vis 1943-45 15 Jul 43 A C-47A (ser. # 42-23515; Mission 9377) went MIA at Vis Island (apparently all crewmen were accounted for).1 Mid Aug 43 Some 3 weeks before Italy capitulated, the Partisans captured the entire Italian military garrison, of approx. 50 troops, on Vis without a fight, nor any casualties (variously described as an old fort and a lookout post atop Mt Hum). The Italians were disarmed and then freed, whereupon 10 hostages were taken from both Komiža and Vis, with the Italian demand that their weapons be returned within three days.2 31 Aug 43 With no weapons having been returned, the 20 hostages from Komiža and Vis were publicly executed by Italian firing squad.3 8 Sep 43 Italy capitulated. 24 Sep 43 Split evacuated by Partisans under Gen Koca Popović, to advancing Germans, having only controlled the city for eleven days.4 12 Oct 43 OSS began a 3-month mission, under Major Louis Huot, USA, to provide 6,000 tons of supplies to the Partisan garrison on Vis, via Bari, aboard the HMS Gull (Sub-Lt Taylor, RNR) and the little coal steamer SS Bakar. Huot wrote of his main interlocutors being the garrison commander, Commander Sergije Makiedo (actually the Commissar, Lt Col [later Admiral] Josip Černi/Černy was the Cdr), and Jože Poduje. They would moor in the "Baie des Anglais," a little basin on the eastern side of Vis harbor. A derelict convent on the waterfront then served as the Partisan hospital, with 3 young indefatigable doctors, “Bobin,” who spoke shaky French, “Zucalo” who spoke appalling English, & “Biacic” who spoke basic German [note how Strutton cites only 2 Partisan doctors on Vis, the charlatan, “Dr.

ISSN: 2309-6322 Vol. 4, No. 2, pp. 83-88, 2014 DOI: 10.13187/issn.2309-6322 www.ejournal6.com UDC 93 From Glasgow to Genoa under three flags – the Yugoslav flotilla leader Dubrovnik Zvonimir Freivogel University Coburg, Germany Dr., Professor Abstract. Royal Yugoslav Navy followed the tradition of the Austro-Hungarian Navy, but was missing modern warships, and her first new acquisition was the powerful destroyer-leader Dubrovnik, built in Great Britain. Two envisaged sister-ships were not built, and the single ship served before the war mostly to „show the flag“. She remained inactive in 1941 during the short „April War“, and was captured by the Italians, to serve under the name Premuda until summer of 1943. After being captured by the Germans, she received a new designation TA 32, she took part in several operations in the Ligurian Sea, to be scuttled at Genoa in 1945 during the German withdrawal. Keywords: Royal Yugoslav Navy; Destroyers; Leaders; Dubrovnik; 1920s – 1930s; World War Two; April War 1941; Premuda; TA 32; Naval Operations; Adriatic; Mediterranean. The former Royal Yugoslav Navy (RYN) was established after the World War One, and inherited the tradition and the personnel of the dissolved Austro-Hungarian Navy, but from the “bounty” it received only some old and small vessels, and was compelled to build the fleet from the scratch. Only in the late 1930s Yugoslav shipyards were capable to build their own warships, because the A-H yards at Trieste, Fiume and Pola were taken over by Italy, the small shipyard at Kraljevica was on the verge of bankruptcy, and the small arsenal at Teodo/Tivat in the Bocche di Cattaro was not equipped for shipbuilding.

  • Mapping Security Complexes
    APPENDIX A Mapping Security Complexes security complex is defined in terms of physical proximity, patterns of amity and en- mity, and an established distribution of power.1 A number of states on the boundaries A between nominal security complexes face at least two ways in their security planning, and they were assigned here to whichever security complex seemed to require the greater at- tention of their governments (see table A.1). The Middle East and North Africa security complex includes countries from Morocco east- ward to Syria and Jordan.The Arab-Israeli conflict is the defining contest within this complex, but there are a number of localized enmities as well (Morocco-Algeria, over borders and unre- solved claims to the Western Sahara; Libya-Egypt, deriving from Egypt’s rapprochement with Israel; and Syrian aspirations to hegemony over war-torn Lebanon). Important relations across security complex “boundaries” include Syria’s rocky relationship with Iraq, Saudi Arabia’s role as banker to those states actively confronting Israel, Libya’s meddling in both Chad and Sudan’s civil wars, and its efforts to annex a bit of Chad (the uranium-bearing Aouzou Strip). The Persian Gulf security complex includes Iran, Iraq, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, and the rest of the states on the Arabian peninsula (Bahrain, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, Oman, and one or two Yemens,depending on the time period).The Gulf Arabs fear their larger, northern neigh- bors’ hegemonic ambitions (Iran’s, played out with imperial grandeur and hubris under the late shah, and with true-believing zeal by his Shia Islamist successors; and Iraq’s, reflected in its ini- tiation of the Iran–Iraq War and the Gulf War).Subsidiary tensions include Saudi-Yemeni bick- ering over their mutual border (how it is drawn determines who has control over several interior oil fields).

The last decade has been a particularly turbulent period for South-east Asian countries, resulting in rising military expenditures and expanding arsenals within the region. Despite the ending of the war in Indo-China powerful pressures remain that are likely to provoke a continued rapid expansion of the armed forces in the region. This paper attempts to identify the more important forces working in this direction and suggests a modest scheme which the countries of the region could implement to counter the influence of some of them. The main objective of this proposal is to moderate the rate of increase in military expenditure and thus minimise the constraints that this expenditure will place on economic and social development in the future.
