Obrazovanje menadžera za akciju
Get PDFThe challenges of management environment and complex professional roles of managers, seek for adequate responses from institutions and managers initial preparation programs. Trends and context changes of business organizations set up numerous " imperatives " to managers education, all of which could be summed up in one - preparing students for action, to act competently in the world of work. From the standpoint of higher education didactic, that involves the use of teaching approaches in managers preparation that integrate two key concepts - competence and activity. Exactly those teaching approaches should be one of the characteristics of the reformed educational environment in higher education. Therefore, the purpose of this theoretical-empirical study is to try to answer the question whether management students are being prepared for action, through examining the problem of teaching approaches aimed at developing competency models through active teaching and learning in higher of managers. The methodological framework of the empirical research is defined in accordance with the general aim of the research - "look at the opinions of teachers, students and practitioners / managers about teaching approaches aimed at preparing future managers for action", by teaching approaches we mean two variables: curricular orientation towards competencies and using active models of teaching and learning. Data collected on a selected sample (which consisted of teachers, management students and managers) with a custom designed research instruments, are interpreted in the framework of qualitative-quantitative analysis as the primary interpretative paradigm. The general hypothesis - "management students during the studies do not prepare for action", tested in the context of research findings, was partially confirmed mainly due to responses of students and managers, while responses and evaluations of teachers, reject the initial hypothesis.Izazovi upravljačkog okruženja i složenih profesionalnih uloga menadžera traže adekvatne odgovore od institucija i programa inicijalnog pripremanja menadžera. Trendovi i promene konteksta poslovnih organizacija postavljaju brojne imperative obrazovanju menadžera, a svi oni se mogu sažeti u jedan - pripremanje studenata za akciju, za kompetentno delovanje u svetu rada. Sa stanovišta visokoškolske didaktike to podrazumeva primenu nastavnih pristupa u pripremanju menadžera koji integrišu dva ključna pojma - kompetencija i aktivnost. Upravo takvi nastavni pristupi bi trebalo da budu jedna od karakteristika reformisanog nastavnog ambijenta u visokoškolskom obrazovanju. Stoga je namera ove teorijsko-empirijske studije da proučavajući problem nastavnih pristupa usmerenih na razvoj kompetencija kroz modele aktivne nastave i učenja u visokoškolskom obrazovanju menadžera pokuša da da odgovor na pitanje da li se studenti menadžmenta pripremaju za akciju. Metodološki okvir empirijskog istraživanja definisan je u skladu s opštim istraživačkim ciljem - sagledati mišljenja nastavnika, studenata i praktičara /menadžera o nastavnim pristupima usmerenim na pripremanje budućih menadžera za akciju, podrazumevajući pod nastavnim pristupima dve varijable: kurikularnu orijentaciju ka kompetencijama i praktikovanje aktivnih modela nastave i učenja. Podaci prikupljeni na odabranom uzorku (koji su činili nastavnici, studenti menadžmenta i menadžeri) pomoću namenski konstruisanih istraživačkih instrumenata, interpretirani su u okviru kvalitativno-kvantitativne analize kao osnovne interpretativne paradigme. Opšta hipoteza - studenti menadžmenta se u toku studija ne pripremaju za akciju, testirana u kontekstu istraživačkih nalaza, delimično je dobila potvrdu koja ima uporište uglavnom u odgovorima studenata i menadžera, dok se odgovorima i procenama nastavnika postavljena hipoteza opovrgava. / (ruski) Složnye uslovija upravlenija i složnye professional'nye roli menedžerov trebujut sootvetstvujuščej podgotovki v sisteme obučenija i obrazovanija.

Differentiation between Definitions of Extremism and Terrorism as a Necessity in Contemporary Security Culture
No full textThrough elaborating the importance of differentiating extremism and terrorism as especially intriguing forms of political violence, the authors noticed that these notions are often intertwined, misused, or (most often) identified as equal. Correct differentiation between extremism and terrorism, and later between terrorism and terror, their historical context, understanding the circumstances in which they appear and exist, are of the utmost importance for preparation of appropriate counter-measures. In this regard, the aim of this paper is to put the precise theoretical definitions of all of these forms of political violence, into context of selecting the appropriate measures for prevention of and combating not only extremism as a precondition, but also the terrorism as the "final product" of extremist aspirations
Civil-Military Relations and Democratic Control over the Armed Forces in the Republic of Serbia
No full textThis article focuses on the democratization of civil-military relations and the implementation of democratic control of the armed forces in the Republic of Serbia. By analyzing the basic parameters of democratic civil-military relations, we attempt to evaluate whether civil-military relations in the Republic of Serbia can be classified into a type of relations that occur in consolidated democracies. Based on an examination of legal documents and other data, this article concludes that democratic changes since October 2000 have greatly influenced the course of relations between military and political elites and that civil-military relation in Serbia meet most of the defined parameters. However, due to the difficulties in the implementation of this control in practice, civil-military relations in Serbia can only partially be classified as a type of relations that occur in consolidated democracies
Possibilities of the Republic of Serbia for reducing vulnerability to natural hazards
Get PDFVulnerability is an essential feature of an element at risk (community, region, country, the environment) which determines the expected damage caused by a hazard. Vulnerability modified over time and it depended on physical, social, economic and environmental factors. Vulnerability became multidimensional, multidisciplinary, multi-sectoral and dynamic in contemporary circumstances. In the past decades, vulnerability to natural hazards took precedence over technological and other hazards threatening the community. The necessity to assess threat, vulnerability and the prevention of natural hazards was emphasized in the key national normative legal acts of the Republic of Serbia. A resolute commitment of the country to lay down the laws to regulate this field and establish a system to make a functional response to natural hazards through institutions was followed by difficult circumstances in practice. In addition to permanent flood hazard vulnerability, landslide and earthquake vulnerability, weak socio-economic profile i.e. the insufficient flexibility of the community and the unclear role of government bodies, municipal civil protection service and the service for protection from natural disasters were also insufficiently equipped. Nowadays, government efforts to solve problems in order to improve its own possibilities for reducing vulnerability to natural hazards are evident. The most important are those related to proper financing of the protection system. The application of SCN model would provide a more stable transfer of financial resources, as well as the transfer of necessary manpower and material resources from national to local level
Квантификација ризика на пројектима освајања индустријског производа
Get PDFThe doctoral dissertation aims to propose an original model for risk quantification in industrial product development projects. The model is built through the systematization of the existing body of knowledge in the field of project risk management and its application to the concept of industrial product development along with monitoring project results – technical performances, schedule and costs – using the newly-established methodology of risk quantification. The primary motivation behind the development of this model is to contribute to the process of product development in domestic industrial enterprises. In order to verify the proposed model, the author has conducted experimental research on the sample of fifty-two projects of development of industrial product of the same kind. The sizes required for the derived mathematical model were experimentally determined and statistically processed by means of principal component analysis. Afterwards, Monte Carlo Simulation of the obtained results, as well as the sensitivity analysis, was conducted in order to verify the model. In the model, the risk assessment is presented from the perspective of the project team and is the upgrade of the standard project activities. Thus, the efficiency of managing project risks is secured by using the available resources without jeopardizing the remaining project activities. The implementation of this model enables a systematic approach to the quantitative analysis of project risks in enterprises whose business endeavor is industrial product development. The results of the research, as well as their generalization verified by proving the main research hypotheses, pertain to the total risk related to each of the project results, i.e. plan, budget and technical performances of the project. They, accordingly, provide a clear insight into the risks present in the process of industrial product development in small and medium-sized enterprises, as well as into their impact on the defined project goals...Предмет докторске дисертације је поставка оригиналног модела за квантификацију ризика на пројектима освајања индустријских производа, која је уследила након систематизације постојећих знања из области управљања пројектним ризицима уз адаптацију истих на концепт развоја индустријског производа, кроз праћење пројектних резултата - техничких карактеристика, времена (плана) и трошкова, а са новоуспостављеном методологијом квантификације ризика. Развој модела као свој ултимативни циљ има потребу да унапреди процесе освајања производа у домаћим индустријским предузећима. У циљу верификације постављеног модела спроведено је експериментално истраживање на узорку 52 пројекта освајања индустријског производа истог типа. Експериментално су одређене величине неопходне за изведени математички модел, статистички обрађене применом методе главних компонената, а затим је изведена Монте Карло симулација добијених резултата и анализа осетљивости у циљу провере модела. У моделу је процена ризика представљена из перспективе пројектног тима, тако да су одабране технике за процену фактора ризика прилагођене компетенцијама пројектног тима и представљају надоградњу редовним пројектним активностима. На овај начин осигурана је ефикасност управљања пројектним ризицима употребом доступних ресурса, без угрожавања осталих пројектних активности. Примена модела омогућава системски приступ квантитативној анализи пројектних ризика у предузећима, која као свој пословни подухват реализују освајање индустријског производа. Резултати истраживања, као и њихова генерализација, потврђена доказом основних истраживачких хипотеза, које се односе на укупан износ ризика према сваком од пројектних резултата у виду плана, буџета и техничких карактеристика пројекта, пружају јасан увид у ризике присутне приликом процеса освајања II индустријског производа у малом и средњем предузећу као и њиховом утицају на дефинисане пројектне циљеве..
