    No full text
    This paper explores the concept of universal responsibility and global ethics as essentialfoundations for achieving lasting peace in the modern interconnected world. It emphasizesthat genuine peace cannot be established through violence or coercion but through the cultivationof ethical values, moral awareness, and interreligious dialogue. The study argues that everyhuman action has both personal and universal dimensions, demanding responsibility not onlytoward oneself but also toward humanity, nature, and future generations. Within this framework,dialogue emerges as a fundamental ethical and communicative method for understanding, cooperation,and peaceful coexistence among individuals, nations, and religions. Drawing on theideas of thinkers such as Emil Brunner, the Dalai Lama, Emmanuel Levinas, and especially HansKüng, the paper highlights Küng’s project Global Ethics as a crucial attempt to establish a sharedmoral framework based on humanism and dialogue. The work underscores the necessity of interreligiousunderstanding and the development of a universal ethical paradigm grounded in justice,compassion, tolerance, and responsibility. The conclusion calls for an ethical revolution centeredon humanism and global solidarity, affirming that universal ethics should guide humanity towardbuilding a more humane, just, and harmonious world

    Globalization has accelerated cultural exchange but also intensified competition, fuelingwars, climate crises, disasters, and cyber threats that heighten global anxiety. In response, thispaper explores conscience-centered peace practices rooted in Tai Ji Men, a qigong and martial artsMenpai with a long tradition of spiritual cultivation. Drawing from over two decades of personalpractice, the study highlights how prayer, martial arts, and qigong can foster inner calmness,moral action, and collective resilience. Special attention is given to the Bell of World Peace andLove, a global cultural initiative through which world leaders have pledged to uphold conscienceand harmony. The paper also examines the Tai Ji Men case, a prolonged legal and human rightscontroversy in Taiwan, as a litmus test for freedom of belief and cultural diversity. Through analysisof lived experience, international engagement, and the broader human rights discourse, thestudy argues that conscience awakening and cultural-spiritual practices can generate nonviolent,resilient forces for peace. Ultimately, resolving structural injustices such as the Tai Ji Men case is essentialnot only for Taiwan’s democratic development but also for strengthening global solidarityand advancing sustainable peace.

    SPECIALIZED BODIES OF THE COUNCIL OF EUROPE

    The Council of Europe is a traditional intergovernmental organization. Its internal structureincludes the Parliamentary Assembly, which is a consultative body of the Organization in whichdelegations from the member states\u27 parliaments participate, and the Committee of Ministers,which is the only executive and decision-making body of the entire Organization. This is explicitlystated in the clause of Article 10 of the Statute of the Council of Europe, which lists only theConsultative Assembly and the Committee of Ministers as the Organization\u27s basic organs. TheConsultative Assembly, as its name suggests, has only advisory authority and, in a similar vein,forms the Organization\u27s so-called parliamentary pillar.This is clearly stipulated in the provision of Article 10 of the Statute of the Council ofEurope, where only the Committee of Ministers (which constitutes the so-called intergovernmentalpillar of the Organization) and the Consultative Assembly are listed as the basic organs of theOrganization, which, as evident from its title, has only advisory competence and whichanalogously forms the so-called parliamentary pillar of the Organization. This organizationalstructure of the Council of Europe is completed by the Congress of Local and Regional Authorities,which not coincidentally has the status of the third pillar of the Organization, as well as a seriesof special expert bodies, including the European Commission against Racism and Intolerance(ECRI) and the European Commission for Democracy through Law (known as the VeniceCommission). The latter also includes the offices of the political officials of the Council of Europe,including the Secretary General of the Organization and the Commissioner for Human Rights.Analogous to the latter, it is quite clear that the generally known European Court of Human Rights– founded on the basis of the ECHR – is not an organ of the Council of Europe, as is the case withall the other independent expert bodies established by a special decision of the Committee ofthe Ministers, but only a judicial supervisory body for the needs of the ECHR itself, as is the casewith the supervisory bodies established on the basis of numerous international conventions of theCouncil of Europe. Only the positions and functions of the European Commission against Racism and Intolerance(ECRI), the European Commission for Democracy through Law (Venice Commission), theCommissioner for Human Rights, the European Commission for the Efficiency of Justice, and the Consultative Council of European Judges. are discussed in the text that follows due to the spaceconstraints of this section of the paper.In addition to the two fundamental organs already mentioned, the Council of Europe hascreated a number of specialized expert and political bodies to expand its operations in severalparticularly significant areas. The establishment of these bodies is directly related to the necessityfor the actualization of the aforementioned goals and jurisdiction

    The connections between Macedonian and Slavic literatures are more than literary. They have deep historical roots and common themes that are intertwined in language, folk tradition, art, culture and literature. This paper systematizes the academic interest of students at the Department of Slavic Studies, Faculty of Philology in Ljubljana, with a bibliographical and descriptive overview of the titles of undergraduate, master\u27s and doctoral theses defended at this department, which have authors and works from Macedonian literature. Interests in Macedonian literature has changed over time and these works have several development periods. The entire material goes towards revealing the thesis that literature reflects the deep historical, cultural and political connections that develop through different periods and contexts. The roots are recognized even in folklore and they reflect the connections between the peoples of the Slavic regions. Starting from language, script, tradition, to themes and forms of expression. The research interest, the choice of topics and authors, and the discovery of the common historical thread that connects Slovenian and Macedonian literature.Врските меѓу македонската и словенските литератури се повеќе од книжевни. Тие имаат длабоки историски корени и заеднички искуства, кои се испреплетени во народната традиција, уметноста, културата и литературата. Овој труд прави систематизација на академскиот интерес на студентите на Одделот за славистика, на Филозофскиот факултет во Љубљана, со библиографски и описен преглед на додипломските, магистерските и докторските трудови, одбранети на овој Оддел, a кои опфаќаат автори и дела од македонската литература. Интересите за македонската литература се менувале низ времето и овие трудови опфаќаат неколку развојни периоди. Целокупниот материјал оди во насока на потврдување на тезата дека литературата ги одразува: историските, културните и политичките врски, кои се развивале низ различни периоди и контексти. Корените се препознаваат уште во фолклорот и тие ја одразуваат поврзаноста меѓу народите на словенските простори, почнувајќи од: јазикот, писмото, традицијата, до современите теми и форми на изразување. Истражувачкиот интерес и изборот на теми и автори ја одразуваат заедничката историска нишка, која ја поврзува словенечката и македонската литература

    FEMME FATALE AND THE BODY MOTIF IN MACEDONIAN WOMEN\u27S POETRY

    No full text
    The figure of the deadly, fatal woman or femme fatale has always appeared in world literature and culture. This is especially the case in poetry, which is interwoven with physicality, touch and heightened sensuality, because the female body is the main attribute of the femme fatale. That motif is also present in Macedonian female poetry, such as in the poetry of Svetlana Hristova-Jocikj, Katica Kjulavkova and Liljana Dirjan. It is the analysis of their poems that represents the main interest of this work, in order to show how the femme fatale motif is expressed in their poetic work and in what way it is connected to the female body, eros, touch and sensuality. Each individual poetess has her own specific creative procedures and ways in which she profiles the character of the femme fatale and weaves it into her verses, thereby giving it a voice to speak. In the poetry of Svetlana Hristova-Jocikj, we can highlight two main archetypes of the femme fatale; Mother Earth and Wild Woman. In the verses of Katica Kjulavkova, a high concentration of eros, physicality and touch comes to the fore. In the poetry of Liljana Dirjan, it is definitely necessary to emphasize its deep sensuality and, above all, a kind of identification of love sensuality with gastronomic pleasures.V svetovni književnosti in kulturi je pogost motiv smrtonosne, usodne ženske ali femme fatale, še posebej v poeziji, ki je prepredena s telesnostjo, dotikom in izostreno čutnostjo, kajti za femme fatale predstavlja njen glavni atribut prav njeno žensko telo. Dotičen motiv je prisoten tudi v makedonski ženski poeziji, kot na primer v poeziji Svetlane Hristove-Jocikj, Katice Kjulavkove in Liljane Dirjan. Tako je v ospredju tega dela prav analiza njihovih pesmi, z namenom odkriti, kako se v njihovem pesniškem opusu izraža motiv femme fatale in na kakšen način je ta povezan z ženskim telesom, motivom erosa, z dotikom ter čutnostjo. Pri vsaki posamezni pesnici gre za specifične ustvarjalne postopke in načine, s katerimi ta pooseblja v svojih verzih lik femme fatale in mu s tem daje lasten glas. V pesništvu Svetlane Hristove-Jocikj lahko izpostavimo dva glavna arhetipa femme fatale; Mater Zemljo in Divjo žensko. V verzih Katice Kjulavkove v ospredje prihaja izraz erosa, telesnosti in dotika, v poeziji Liljane Dirjan pa je potrebno poudariti globoko čutnost in predvsem nekakšno istovetenje ljubezenskih čutnosti z gastronomskimi užitki
