    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.

  • Case Study “Juzni Jadran“ Herceg Novi

    Case Study “Juzni Jadran“ Herceg Novi

    CASE STUDY “JUZNI JADRAN“ HERCEG NOVI I: INTRODUCTION: The case of "Juzni Jadran" refers to the privatization of a tourist and catering company in Herceg Novi, which owned valuable real estate of more than 100 thousand square meters on the most beautiful part of the Montenegrin coast, with a considerable number of buildings. The case study shows that Podgorica-based company "Carine", which appeared as a buyer of a first package of shares, for which it paid a negligible price instead of real privatization, and pushed the company "South Adriatic" into debt and liquidation, thereby taking its valuable real estate. It also shows one of the behavior patterns of privatization tycoons, who have emerged as buyers of once rich companies because of their property and abuse of official business in the economy, at the expense of the public interest and especially the interest of minority shareholders. II: “CARINE“ ENTERS “JUZNI JADRAN“: In January 2001, Podgorica-based company "Carine", owned by Cedomir Popovic, bought 30 percent of shares in the tourist and catering company "Juzni Jadran", which owned a large number of real estate in Herceg Novi, at a public auction. "Carine" bought shares of the then Pension Fund and Employment Office for the amount of DM 247,632. Popovic paid two deutsche marks per share at the special auction, although the nominal value of a share was DM 40. Namely, there were no interested parties at a public auction held in December 2011, so the Privatization Council held a special auction January next year, where the value of a share fell from 40 to two deutsche marks and where Popovic himself appeared as a buyer.

    MONTENEGRO PREFACE Podgorica, the capital of Montenegro, lies in a broad plain crossed by five rivers and surrounded by mountains, just 20 kilometers from the Albanian border. The city has a population of around 180,000 people. Bombed into rubble during World War II, Podgorica was rebuilt into a modern urban center, with high-rise apartment buildings and new office and shopping developments. While the latest Balkan war had a low impact on the physical structures, the economic sanctions had a devastating effect on employment and infrastructure. With the help of foreign investment, urban renewal is evident throughout the city, but much of it may still appear run down. Podgorica has a European-style town center with a pedestrian- only walking street (mall) and an assortment of restaurants, cafes, and boutiques. To many, its principal attraction is as a base for the exploration of Montenegro’s natural beauty, with mountains and wild countryside all around and the stunning Adriatic coastline less than an hour away. This is a mountainous region with barren moorlands and virgin forests, with fast-flowing rivers and picturesque lakes; Skadar Lake in particular is of ecological significance. The coastline is known for its sandy beaches and dramatic coves: for example, Kotor – the city that is protected by UNESCO and the wonderful Cathedral of Saint Typhoon; the unique baroque Perast; Saint George and Our Lady of the Rock islands – all locations that tell a story of a lasting civilization and the wealth of the most wonderful bay in the world. The area around the city of Kotor is a UNESCO World Heritage site for its natural beauty and historic significance.

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.
