In March 2010, CEZ announced that discussions had begun with three vendor groups prior to the bid submission: a 26.7% 2 reactors consortium led by Westinghouse; a consortium of Škoda JS, Atomstroyexport, and OKB Gidropress; and France’s AREVA. In February 2011, the final delivery date was shifted to 2025. In October 2011 CEZ asked for tenders from three companies (AREVA, Westinghouse and Atomstroyexport with Skoda) for a turnkey contract for the construction of two units plus nine years’ worth of fuel. The bids were due in July 2012, with contracts to be signed in late 2013. CEZ is reported to be considering seeking an outside investor, for $10 billion, for the project. CEZ stated in May 2012, that “the partnership will probably be formed after the contract with the selected supplier is signed, which is expected to happen in 2013”. Finland Y The Olkiluoto 3 (OL3) project (AREVA) is about five years behind schedule and 100% over (4 = 22.3 TWh) Olkiluoto-3 & budget. The problems produced by the OL3 project have not prevented TVO from filing an application, in April 2008, for a decision-in-principle to develop “OL4”, a 1–1.8 GW reactor 31.6% 4 to start construction in 2012 and enter operation “in the late 2010s”.

  • Ethnology and Anthropology in Europe Towards a Trans-National Discipline
    Ethnology and Anthropology in Europe Towards a Trans-National Discipline Jasna Čapo Institute of Ethnology and Folklore Research, Zagreb Abstract Twenty-five years after the collapse of communism in Eastern Europe, the European East-West divide has not been relegated to the annals of history. Among other areas, it persists tenaciously within the ethnological/anthropological sciences practised in Eu- rope. This article deconstructs and challenges reified differences between ethnologies in Central-Eastern Europe and Western, mainly British-style anthropology. It pro- poses to go beyond the prevalent divisive discourse towards a trans-national European ethnology/anthropology of Europe. It argues that fairness and equality in academic dialogue is a necessary prerequisite of such an endeavour. hough twenty-five years have passed since the fall of the Berlin Wall and the collapse of communism in Eastern Europe, entrenched Cold War divisions remain in place on the European continent. One encoun- Tters still the notion of a European “East” that is different from the “West.” It refers not to the geographic but the symbolic European “East,” a former space of communist ideology and socialist societies. In geographic terms, it includes Central and Eastern Europe (from now on referred to as CEE, both in the ad- jectival and substantival form). Most of the former socialist countries in that area have joined the European Union, but this does not preclude the outdated notion of the “East” being widely used. The polarity “West”-”East” stands for many opposites: centre/core vs. periphery/margin, capitalism vs. former so- cialism (today post-socialist/post-communist space), democratic vs.

  • Top Incomes in Croatia and Slovenia, from 1960S Until Today
    WID.world WORKING PAPER SERIES N° 2018/8 Top incomes in Croatia and Slovenia, from 1960s until today Nataša Kump Filip Novokmet April 2018 Top incomes in Croatia and Slovenia, from 1960s until today * Nataša Kump Institute for Economic Research (IER), Ljubljana Filip Novokmet Paris School of Economics (PSE) Abstract The income tax data are used to show that the transition to the market economy has led to a moderate increase in income inequality in Croatia and Slovenia. Inequality increased in the 1990s and stabilized afterwards, with the increase in inequality being mainly driven by the rising shares of top income groups. This development is explained by the ‘gradualist’ transition course. In both Slovenia and Croatia, the slow privatization and the large public sector have contributed to the emergence of labour market institutions that procured low inequality social equilibrium. Further, the substantial importance of the state ownership of the corporate sector in Slovenia and the foreign and state ownership in Croatia has made the concentration of private capital income less pronounced at the top of the income distribution. Finally, new inequality series for Croatia and Slovenia are a valuable contribution in assessing the role and showing the importance of policies and institutions in shaping inequality. * This work is based on the chapter entitled “After self-management: top income shares in Croatia and Slovenia, from the 1960s until today” by F. Novokmet (Novokmet 2017). Nataša Kump: [email protected] ; Filip Novokmet: [email protected] We are especially grateful to Tine Stanovnik and Leonard Kukic for helpful suggestions. Special acknowledgments go to Mirna Valinger, Gordana Marić and Zlatana Kvesić from the Croatian Tax Administration for the preparation of the Croatian income tax data used in this paper.

  • Socio-Spatial Patterns of the Contemporary Second Home Phenomenon in Croatia
    https://doi.org/10.5559/di.26.1.05 SOCIO-SPATIAL PATTERNS OF THE CONTEMPORARY SECOND HOME PHENOMENON IN CROATIA Geran-Marko MILETIĆ, Krešimir PERAČKOVIĆ, Marica MARINOVIĆ GOLUBIĆ Institute of Social Sciences Ivo Pilar, Zagreb UDK: 316.334.54(497.5) 316.343(497.5) Izvorni znanstveni rad Primljeno: 18. 7. 2016. Second home use as a specific dwelling practice has a long history in Croatia. The number of second homes has been continuously growing in Croatia for more than 50 years, regardless of the long-term economic crises and regressive socio-historical processes. In this article, based on empirical data collected by a survey and the most recent national Census, we explore the basic features of the second home phenomenon focusing on characteristics of second home users, patterns of second home location and frequency of use. The obtained data shows that Croatian households that own a second home represent a heterogeneous group and that this phenomenon is not associated exclusively with affluent and/or retired house- holds. Furthermore, second homes are more often located in a certain type of settlement – peripheral, rural and small settle- ments are more desirable locations and more than half of the respondents use their second homes at least on a monthly basis. Keywords: second homes, temporary inhabitants, social structure, counterurbanisation, Croatia Geran-Marko Miletić, Institute of Social Sciences Ivo Pilar, Marulićev trg 19/1, P. O. Box 277, 10 001 Zagreb, Croatia. E-mail: Geran.Marko.Miletic @pilar.hr INTRODUCTION Second home use, or temporary occupancy of an additional prope rty exclusively for leisure and recreation, is a global social phenomenon and has a long tradition particularly on the Eu- 79 ropean continent (Claval, 2013).
