  • Yugoslav Destruction After the Cold War
    STASIS AMONG POWERS: YUGOSLAV DESTRUCTION AFTER THE COLD WAR A dissertation presented by Mladen Stevan Mrdalj to The Department of Political Science In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the field of Political Science Northeastern University Boston, Massachusetts December 2015 STASIS AMONG POWERS: YUGOSLAV DESTRUCTION AFTER THE COLD WAR by Mladen Stevan Mrdalj ABSTRACT OF DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Political Science in the College of Social Sciences and Humanities of Northeastern University December 2015 2 Abstract This research investigates the causes of Yugoslavia’s violent destruction in the 1990’s. It builds its argument on the interaction of international and domestic factors. In doing so, it details the origins of Yugoslav ideology as a fluid concept rooted in the early 19th century Croatian national movement. Tracing the evolving nationalist competition among Serbs and Croats, it demonstrates inherent contradictions of the Yugoslav project. These contradictions resulted in ethnic outbidding among Croatian nationalists and communists against the perceived Serbian hegemony. This dynamic drove the gradual erosion of Yugoslav state capacity during Cold War. The end of Cold War coincided with the height of internal Yugoslav conflict. Managing the collapse of Soviet Union and communism imposed both strategic and normative imperatives on the Western allies. These imperatives largely determined external policy toward Yugoslavia. They incentivized and inhibited domestic actors in pursuit of their goals. The result was the collapse of the country with varying degrees of violence. The findings support further research on international causes of civil wars.

  • A Summary of the Tourist Potential of Ferizaj
    E-ISSN 2281-4612 Academic Journal of Interdisciplinary Studies Vol 4 No 2 S2 ISSN 2281-3993 MCSER Publishing, Rome-Italy August 2015 A Summary of the Tourist Potential of Ferizaj Halil Halili PhD Candidate, Mediteran University, Faculty of Tourism, Bar, Monte Negro Email: [email protected] Doi:10.5901/ajis.2015.v4n2s2p63 Abstract Ferizaj is, without any doubts, one of the most interesting areas thanks to its wealth and natural beauties. Ferizaj has great potentials for tourism development, as a cultural one as well as to the nature and recreation. Among the potential of local tourism development are Sharri beautiful mountains, river valleys Nerodime, bifurcation, the union of two rivers etc. The different historical past has left numerous material monuments such as tumuli (cemetery) Illyrian, remains of old buildings, residencies and grave stones dating from Middle age. By building objects for tourists we would insure opening of the area and its resources towards tourists and it would valorize, in any aspect, rural, recreational, hunting, fishing, sports, village and ecological tourism. Keywords: tourist potential, Ferizaj, development of tourist sector, Bifurcation 1. Introduction Ferizaj has sufficient potential for the development of cultural, nature and recreation tourism .Among the potentials of the development of local tourism are beautiful mountains of Sharr ,the valley of the river Nerodime ,bifurcation ,the union of two rivers etc. Ferizaj, compared with its surroundings, is relatively new town. One of the most important factors from historic past to the formation of the city of Ferizaj and its economic development is the construction of the railway line (1874) and a railway station that is very important for the transportation of passengers and goods, which also influenced the changes of the view of the place, which today has been transformed into the city (http://kk.rks-gov.net/ferizaj/City- guide/History.aspx) Ferizaj has a convenient geographical and economic position.

  • Főbb Földrajzi Sajátosságok
    Első rész FŐBB FÖLDRAJZI SAJÁTOSSÁGOK Földünk különböző területei sajátos földrajzi tulajdonságaik révén eltér- nek egymástól, és a szemlélőben a földrajzi vagy a természeti egység képzetét kelthetik. A képzet első forrásai a szembetűnő alaktani és mor- fológiai sajátosságok. A morfológiai különbségekhez más különbségek is társulnak, amelyek a különböző földrajzi szélesség, éghajlat, növényzet, a föld terméshozamából erednek. Az imént felsorolt földrajzi sajátosságok- tól képzettársítással a terület történeti szerepéhez juthatunk el, amellyel folyamatosan hatott az egymást követő kultúrákra és a mai kultúra állapo- tára. A lélek akaratlanul is kapcsolatot keres a kétfajta tényező között. A földrajzi vonások, a történelmi és szociológiai tényezők összekapcsolása kiemelkedő jelentőségűvé válik, ha a terület olyan fontos szerepet játszott a kultúra történeti fejlődésében, mint a Balkán-félsziget. A gondolatok sora óhatatlanul felveti a következő kérdést: melyek azok a domborzati vonások, amelyek meghatározzák a Balkán-félsziget karakterét, és melyek azok, amelyek miatt a balkáni népek élete és fejlődése másként alakult, mint a szomszédos országok lakosaié. Ebből a szemszögből fogjuk a Balkán-félsziget földrajzi jellegzetessé- geit mint emberföldrajzi és etnográfiai tényezőket megfigyelni. Nem geo- morfológiai jellegű stúdiumról beszélünk. Nem vállalkozunk a domborzat specifikus vizsgálatára. Azonban ahhoz, hogy a földrajzi jellegzetességek e csoportját meghatározhassuk, olyan morfológiai és geológiai elméleteket kell megismerni, amelyek a legpontosabban magyarázzák meg a fogal- makat, mint ahogyan ez az emberekkel foglalkozó tanulmányokban lenni szokott, és az eddigi kutatások eredményeit meg kell próbálni ötvözni a saját eredményekkel. Ennek szellemében mutatom be a Balkán-félsziget földrajzi sajátos- ságait, melyek három csoportra oszthatók: az eurázsiai sajátosságok, a kapcsolódások és az elterjedés, valamint az elszigetelődés és elválás sajátosságai.

Accepted 31 May, 2013 Cartography is a science which most presents changes over ever increasing modern computer technologies. A computer supported generalisation of water flow sets its goal on the effects and achievements of modern cartography science, also showing the results and the levels of basic manual generalisation, comparing them with the effects of a digital computer supported generalisation. Every newly made map which represents the territory given sets the goal of comparing the data, showing the newly created ones in the best and most efficient way. As far as the very river flow is concerned, it is the very degree of generalisation that matters as it affects the quality of the map itself. Generalisation is only one of the methods which can be used for that purpose as the results can be applied to different forms of digital maps. Following the concrete example of the Sitnica River system, using the GeoMedia 6.1 software, by means of GeoMedia 6.1 professional programme, the whole Sitnica River system is presented through vectors on the grounds of topographic maps in proportion of 1:25000, 1:50000, 1:300000.

Denic THE POETICS OF SUFFERING AND REFUGE IN NEWER SERBIAN LITERATURE OF KOSOVO AND METOHIJA Denic Suncica M., Doctor of Philology, Professor. Pedagogical Faculty in Vranje, The State University of Nis 14 Partizanska St., Vranje, 17500, Republic of Serbia. Е-mail: [email protected] Abstract In the paper, we talk about the newer Serbian literature of Kosovo and Metohija which deals with the problem of persecution and fleeing of people from their home places and hearths. Such poetics has been especially present during the last few decades as a proof of massive affliction. Partially colored by neo-patriotic nuances, this kind of literature has more epic qualities than lyric ones; it is more of an expression of general suffering and sorrow, than sadness over personal fate. Quiet and meditative, it is also a distinctive testimony about the suffering, which has more and more often been referred to as New Testament affliction. Some of the more significant representatives of the new poetics and canon of Kosovo and Metohija are Darinka Jevric, Radoslav Zlatanovic, Moso Odalovic, Dragomir Kostic, Blagoje Savic, and Aleksandar Lakovic.
