Marjeta Ciglenečki* Abstract The paper deals with the question of modernism in the post WW II period when the new political situation in Eastern Europe brought significant changes in art. The case of the Slovene painter France Mihelič (1907– 1998) illustrates how important personal experience was in the transformation from realism to modernism as well as how crucial it was for a talented artist to be acquainted with contemporary trends in the main Western European art centres. After WW II, most Slovene artists travelled to Paris in order to advance creatively, yet France Mihelič’s stay in the French city (1950) stands out. Mihelič is an acknowledged representative of fantastic art who reached his artistic peak in the 1950s when he exhibited and received awards at key art events in Europe and South America.

Janko Prunk Prispevek kulturnega in civilnodružbenega segmenta k uvedbi demokracije in neodvisnosti Slovenije Diplomsko delo Ljubljana, 2011 Najlepše se zahvaljujem svojemu mentorju, red. prof. dr. Janko Prunku, za svetovanje in pomoč pri diplomski nalogi. Najlepše se zahvaljujem svojima profesorjema, doc. dr. Milanu Balažicu in izr.prof. dr. Gregorju Tomcu, pri pomaganju literature. Zahvaljujem se družini, sorodnikom, prijateljem in znancem za vso podporo ob mojem študiju. Na koncu pa se zahvaljujem Katji, ki me je vedno spodbujala in na koncu pregledala nalogo. Prispevek kulturnega in civilnodružbenega segmenta k uvedbi demokracije in neodvisnosti Slovenije V svoji diplomski nalogi sem obravnaval kulturna in civilna družbena gibanja v socialistični Jugoslaviji, ki so se borila za samostojno in demokratično Slovenijo. Največ pozornosti bom posvetil posameznikom in organizacijam, ki so se borili za samostojno Slovenijo. V začetku svoje naloge bom izpostavil delovanje Jožeta Pučnika. V 70-ih letih se mu je pridružil Edvard Kocbek s svojim prelomnim intervjujem z Borisom Pahorjem leta 1975. Moja raziskovalna naloga pa bo najbolj osredotočena v 80. leta prejšnjega stoletja. Osemdeseta je odprla alternativna glasba, ki je prebudila bodočo uporno generacijo. Svoje so dodali Pankrti in ostali pankovske skupine ter Laibach. Takrat je nastal vrhunec civilno družbene sfere, ko sta vzleteli osvobojena Zveza socialistične mladine Slovenije in Odbor za varstvo človekovih pravic, ki velja za največjo civilno družbeno organizacijo v Sloveniji, ki je zadala odločilni in končni udarec takratni vladajoči oblasti, ko se je zavzemala za osvoboditev zapornikov Janeza Janše, Ivana Borštnerja, David Tasić in Francija Zavrla.

  • Telecom Policy Across the Former Yugoslavia: Incentives, Challenges, and Lessons Learned by Laura Hosman and Philip N
    JOURNAL OF INFORMATION POLICY 4 (2014): 67-104. TELECOM POLICY ACROSS THE FORMER YUGOSLAVIA: INCENTIVES, CHALLENGES, AND LESSONS LEARNED BY LAURA HOSMAN AND PHILIP N. HOWARD† What is the recipe for good information policy? Hosman and Howard address this in an emerging economy context through case studies of six states that arose following the dissolution of the former Yugoslavia. These new nations pursued differing information policy paths that led to diverse outcomes. The authors find, in general, conventional positive outcomes supporting policies for privatization, liberalization, and competition; but at the same time discover many counterintuitive outcomes based on each country’s unique circumstances. General rules are good, but in specific cases alternative paths can also lead to success. INTRODUCTION Telecommunications policy has come to occupy an important position in the strategies of governments in emerging countries for promoting socio-economic growth. Economists have long acknowledged the significance of the telecommunications sector in its own right as a contributor to economic growth, and its multiplying effect for other sectors of the economy. Political scientists, sociologists, computer scientists, engineers, and development scholars all now have perspectives on how ICTs (information and communication technologies) can contribute to overall development and growth. Governments in developing countries recognize that ICT-oriented initiatives can be promoted through policy, but questions remain as to effective methods for doing so, particularly on a nationwide level. Some governments choose telecommunications policies that hinder technology diffusion, while others choose policies that appear to do a good job at encouraging technology diffusion and reaping subsequent economic rewards. The question of what makes for good policy has become a key issue area for academics and international organizations alike, with various recommendations emerging from numerous macro-level studies aimed at addressing this issue.

  • Codification of the Spoken Language: an Example of Contemporary Slovene
    Hotimir Tivadar UDK 811.163.6:808.5 University of Ljubljana* CODIFICATION OF THE SPOKEN LANGUAGE: AN EXAMPLE OF CONTEMPORARY SLOVENE 1 INTRODUCTION Since its inception, the first books by Slovene Protestants in the 16 th century (Pri - mož Trubar, Jurij Dalmatin and others), the Standard Slovene language has played an important role in the forming of the Slovene nation. 1 Thus the Bible by Dalmatin (1584) was actually also a supra-regional Bible, used by Protestants and Catholics alike. A return to the standard language of the Slovene Protestants was seen also in the 19 th century, when the Slovene language began to be used more extensively in public. Since the second half of the 19 th century, beginning with the so-called “Spring of the Nations” in 1848, the language and its public use and manifestation became a very important factor in the creation of the Slovene nation. An important function of the literary language was its ability to unify and reach every Slovene, with only the origin of its speakers regionally defined. This supra-regional element, retained today as the Standard language used by the media and elsewhere, demonstrates a continued degree of linguistic unity throughout Slovenia. 2 THE FORMING OF SLOVENE ORTHOEPY Orthoepy is a “linguistic branch that searches for, and establishes, the best regular way to pronounce phonemes and their prosodic properties, which is the pronunciation (= reading) of both” (Toporišič 1992: 205). 2 Orthoepy had already begun to be estab - lished with the first written records and codification, a “literary” transformation of languages, which brought about discussion on the appropriateness of these first records, or the pronunciation of an individual written language.
