РЕФЛЕКСИИ ЗА ПОЛОЖБАТА НА НАСТАВНИКОТ ВО XXI ВЕК НАСТАВНИЧКИОТ ПОВИК Е ПОВЕЌЕ ОД ПРОФЕСИЈА
Get PDFThis paper analyzes the position of the teaching profession within the broadersocial reality in the 21st century, with particular reference to the contemporary Macedonianpedagogical and social context. The paper first gives a summary presentation ofseveral central points related to the teaching profession in modern society: 1. Interpretationof this year’s UNESCO theme: “The Transformation of Education Begins withTeachers”; 2. Consulting several theories that give a broader perspective to the teachingprofession in general (Konrad Liessmann, George Steiner, John Dewey and JeromeBrunner); 3. Criticism of the negative tendency to interpret the teaching profession fromthe point of view of information transmission, and not within the broader educationalprocess, as the theory and history of pedagogy dictates. The rest of the paper deals withthe application of general pedagogical and philosophical theories to the contemporaryMacedonian contest in dialogue with the specific Macedonian pedagogical tradition.The paper pays particular attention to the “Conception of Primary Education” (2021),which is interpreted as an attempt to reinterpret and rehabilitate the position of theteacher in contemporary Macedonian education.Овој труд ја анализира положбата на наставничката професија во рам-ки на пошироката општествена стварност во XXI век, со особен осврт на со-времениот македонски педагошки и општествен контекст. Трудот најпрводава сумирано претставување на неколку централни пунктови поврзани сонаставничката професија во современото општество: 1. Интерпретација наовогодишната тема на УНЕСКО: „Трансформацијата на образованието почну-ва со наставниците“; 2. Консултирање на неколку теории кои даваат поширо-ка перспектива на наставничката професија генерално (Конрад Лисман, ЏорџШтајнер, Џон Дјуи и Џером Брунер); 3. Критика на негативната тенденцијанаставничката професија да се толкува од гледна точка на пренос на информа-ции, а не во рамки на поширокиот воспитно-образовен процес, како што тоаго налага теоријата и историјата на педагогијата. Остатокот од трудот сезанимава со применување на генералните педагошки и филозофски теории врзмакедонскиот современ контекст во дијалог со специфичната македонска пе-дагошка традиција. Трудот посветува особено внимание на „Концепцијата заосновно образование“ (2021) којашто е интерпретирана како обид да се реин-терпретира и рехабилитира положбата на наставникот во современото маке-донско образование
РОДОВО БАЗИРАНО НАСИЛСТВО ВО СЕВЕРНА МАКЕДОНИЈА: ПРЕДИЗВИЦИ И СТРАТЕГИИ ЗА ПРЕВЕНЦИЈА И ЗАШТИТА
Get PDFGender-based violence (GBV) is a serious social and legal problem that affects allsocieties, including North Macedonia. This type of violence is deeply rooted in unequalpower relations between the sexes and social norms that reinforce those inequalities.Gender-based violence includes physical, sexual, psychological and economic violencedirected at a person because of their sex or gender. It not only causes direct harm to thevictims, but also affects their well-being, personal development and participation insociety.North Macedonia, as a country that strives for European integration and adoptionof European values, takes significant steps to deal with this problem through legislation,strategies and programs for prevention and protection of victims. However,numerous challenges remain that hinder these efforts, such as insufficient public awareness,cultural barriers, inadequate implementation of laws, insufficient support for victims,as well as inequality in victims’ access to justice.This paper aims to analyze the current situation regarding gender-based violencein North Macedonia, to identify the main challenges the country is facing and topropose specific strategies and measures to overcome them. Through the analysis of existingdata, the legislative framework and a case study, we will try to provide a completeoverview of the problem and offer recommendations to improve the situation.Родово базираното насилство (РБН) претставува сериозен социјален иправен проблем кој ги засега сите општества, вклучувајќи ја и Северна Македо-нија. Овој вид насилство е длабоко вкоренет во нееднаквите односи на моќ меѓуполовите и општествените норми кои ги засилуваат тие нееднаквости. Родовобазираното насилство вклучува физичко, сексуално, психолошко и економсконасилство насочено кон личност поради нејзиниот пол или род. Тоа не само штопредизвикува директна штета врз жртвите, туку и влијае на нивната благосос-тојба, личен развој и учество во општеството.Северна Македонија, како земја која се стреми кон евроинтеграција иусвојување на европските вредности, презема значајни чекори за справување соовој проблем преку законодавство, стратегии и програми за превенција и зашти-та на жртвите. Сепак, остануваат бројни предизвици кои ги попречуваат овиенапори, како што се недоволната свест на јавноста, културните бариери, неа-декватната имплементација на законите, недоволната поддршка за жртвите,како и нееднаквост во пристапот до правда на жртвите.Овој труд има за цел да ги анализира тековните состојби во однос на ро-дово базираното насилство во Северна Македонија, да ги идентификува главнитепредизвици со кои се соочува земјата и да предложи конкретни стратегии имерки за нивно надминување. Преку анализа на постоечките податоци, законо-давната рамка и студија на случај, ќе се обидеме да обезбедиме целосен прегледна проблемот и да понудиме препораки за подобрување на ситуацијата
THE POLICE AS THE PRIMARY GUARANTOR OF SECURITY IN THE STATE
Get PDFSecurity can be understood as one of the most important, or primary, human needs,and it is closely related to other existential needs. Broadly interpreted, in modern society, itcan be said that the security implies order in society, i.e. a condition in which neither the statenor its citizens are threatened by any danger. Achieving this condition requires adherence toapplicable laws and regulations, which essentially implies the functioning of the rule of law.Since man became a conscious being, one of the key needs has been the need for a necessarylevel of security. Consequently, since the birth of the state, people began to create specificservices (bodies) entrusted with important tasks of interest to the community (state) andall its members. The most visible state body tasked with the role of ensuring security is thepolice. Therefore, the police were created together with the state and since its inception, theyhave been a body of coercion in the hands of the ruling elite, with the goal of maintaining theconcept of public order. Today, the level of security in society is shown statistically, i.e. throughthe ratio between the number of crimes and misdemeanours (negative security incidents) andthe number of solved crimes and misdemeanours, i.e. it is reflected in the efficiency of statebodies responsible for prevention and repression of all negative security phenomena. Thepolice are one of the most important state bodies for maintaining the necessary level ofsecurity. However, the responsibility for the state of security in the country cannot solely restwith the police. This responsibility must also extend to other state bodies, especially to thoseresponsible for dealing with cases referred to them by the police
MOST FREQUENTLY DETERMINED CARRIAGES OF INFECTIOUS AGENTS DURING HEALTH - HYGIENE EXAMINATION OF PERSONS EMPLOYED IN FOOD PRODUCTION AND TRADE
Get PDF Food safety is one of the key factors for consumer health. Therefore, a lot of attention has been paid in the last few decades to the identification of biological hazards in food. They represent a very serious danger to the health and safety of consumers. The health status of food handlers is a very significant factor for food safety. For those reasons, it is necessary that they regularly perform the prescribed health-hygiene examinations in order to prevent the secondary contamination of food, thereby preventing the development of food-borne diseases. During the research period 2011-2020, it was established that 11,347 people did not have a health-hygiene examination during the inspections carried out by the Food and Veterinary Agency in the Republic of North Macedonia.The largest number of persons who did not perform a health-hygiene examination was observed in 2012, i.e. 2276 persons, compared to 2016, when the lowest number of persons (596) who did not perform a health-hygiene examination was ascertained. For the analyzed period, the competent authority removed from work a total of 3170 food handlers due to carriages of infectious agents. In 2012, the largest number of removed persons was recorded (808), compared to 2018 when only 80 persons were removed due to carriage. Regular health-hygiene examinations for employees who are in contact with food allows timely detection of asymptomatic carriers of bacteria and parasites, which will reduce and prevent the development of food-borne diseases
AN ANALYSIS OF LAMB GROWTH AS A RESULT OF DIFFERENT NUTRITION METHODS IN A SEMI-INTENSIVE BREEDING SYSTEM
Get PDFThe paper examines the impact of nutrition and breeding methods on lamb growth in the first 60 days after lambing. Two groups of lambs of the same age have been examined. The first group of 20 lambs spent 6 hours with their mothers, suckling at will, and they spent 18 hours alone in a cubicle where they were served food: concentrated food and dried and crushed alfalfa. The second group of 20 lambs spent 18 hours with their mothers, suckling at will, while the rest of the day they spent alone in a cubicle where they were also served food: concentrated food and dried and crushed alfalfa. At the beginning of the experiment, the average weight of lambs at birth did not present statistical significance and it was 3.6 kg. During the experiment, depending on the method of breeding and meal composition, the difference in daily increments was not statistically significant during the initial 20 days. However, in the period to follow, in the second half of the experiment, the difference in lamb growth was statistically significant, whereby in group II one could observe larger increments of 205 g during the second measurement, i.e. 359 g during the final measurement. The obtained results have been presented in a table form by calculating the mean value and standard error, and then the variable of quantitative traits was established by resorting to the standard t-test. The lambs which consumed milk at will in the first thirty days showed a significant difference at the level p < 0.01, while the lambs in group II in the second half of the experiment showed a statistically significant difference at the level p < 0.05 when it comes to daily and total increments.  
WESTERN BALKANS THROUGH THE PRISM OF STEREOTYPES, PREJUDICE, AND RELIGION: LESSONS FROM NORTH MACEDONIA, BOSNIA AND HERZEGOVINA, AND KOSOVO
Get PDFMultiple-holistic analysis conducted in the Western Balkans has shown that context(s)in the Western Balkans are overflowed with stereotypes, prejudice, and religious intolerance. Thesethree phenomena were included in extensive multiple-holistic case study by conducting interviewsand open-ended surveys among peace activists, journalists, politicians, as well as members of thecivil society, in the countries of North Macedonia, Bosnia and Hercegovina, and Kosovo. The researchfindings draw a picture of a still deeply prejudiced and divided societies. People categorizeeach other according to their religion and ethnicity. The group they identified themselves with representsthe reference for what is good or bad. Stereotypes and prejudice are deeply rooted in andtransmitted in early childhood experiences, in most cases as a result of family trauma as a consequenceof an earlier conflict. Also, ethnic prejudice are deeply rooted in state systems. Religion inthese contexts plays a crucial but subtle role in designing unstable and divided contexts. It keepsto its own communities and values through exclusion of the others instead of using its power forunifying and tolerance purposes. The presence of deeply rooted stereotypes and prejudice createuncertain societies and uncertainty among people. The conflict contexts in the Western Balkansrequire a serious and sustainable strategy for building relationships among people regardless oftheir ethnicity and religious affiliation in the long term
THE SACRED, SACRILEGE, AND SYMBOLIC BOUNDATIES IN POSTSECULAR, POSTSOCIALIST SERBIA
Get PDFThis paper will strive to address the novel manifestations and roles that sacrilege playsin the postsecular world, and especially how it figuresin the symbolic battles waged in Serbia afterOctober 5, 2000 over which current has the indisputable right to form its postsocialist collectiveidentity – ethnic, ethical, ideological, religious.The focus will be on concrete incidents in Serbianpublic space involving accusations of blasphemy and the ensuing debates, which have arguablyhelpedestablish and maintain the symbolic boundaries in a society. The sample includes caseswhich are mentioned in news portals available online and this corpus of empirical material consistingof media content will be contextualized and subjected to discourse analysis. Of special interestwill be the ways in which both accusations of blasphemy and defenses against these accusationscan serve to draw lines around respective collective identities in symbolic divisions usuallyclosely corresponding with geopolitical ones. The sociocultural problems that will hopefully befurther illuminated are the modalities of the secular status of the state, freedom of religion andfreedom of speech, collective identities (most pertinently ethnic nationalism, especially when combinedwith Eastern Orthodoxy in a postsocialist country), geopolitical influences, and postsecularhybrids (especially establishing which are permissible in a community, and which are perceived asimpure mixing and as such sacrilegious)
TÜRKİYE-LIBYA RELATIONS: TÜRKİYE’s EASTERN MEDITERRANEAN POLICY
Get PDFWithout a doubt, Türkiye is one of the most important Mediterranean powers and has made a significant contribution to the creation of Mediterranean culture for many centuries.

Author in this study analysis that relations between Türkiye and Libya also Türkiye’s activities in the region within the sphere of its geopolitical interests in the Eastern Mediterranean are carried out at the political, economic, cultural and military
ГОРДОСТ и СМИРЕНИЕ: семантичка анализа на добродетели и нивни антиподи
Get PDFThe aim of our research was the semantic field of the virtue dignity, with lexemes that are related and opposed to it (pride, ugly, beautiful, calm, humility, modest). Since this concerns a virtue, the analysis was performed in a philosophical-theological context. We also took into account the etymological analysis of the lexemes and the implications of their etymology in terms of semantics and vocabulary enrichment. The analysis was performed based on the use of the lexemes from this semantic field within the contexts of contemporary Macedonian language and literature.Цел на нашето истражување ќе биде семантичкото поле на добродетелта достоинство, со лексемите што ѝ се сродни и спротивставени (гордост, грд, убав, смирен, смерен, одмерен). Со оглед на тоа што станува збор за добродетел, анализата ќе ја вршиме во философско-богословски контекст. Ќе ја земеме предвид и етимолошката анализа на лексемите и импликациите што ги донесува етимологијата на лексемите на семантички план и на планот на збогатувањето на речникот. Анализата ќе ја вршиме и врз основа на употребата на лексемите од ова семантичко поле во контексти на современиот македонски јазик и книжевност
