No full text
The aim of this work is to make a critical analysis of research design in tourism with an emphasis on stakeholders in the destination network, which should result in finding the most optimal research and methodological model for the purpose of scientific and practical application in adaptable and efficient destination management. The paper considers a wide range/map of research design and approach in all phases of the research process: data collection and processing, and interpretation of the obtained results. Recommendations for finding an adequate methodological approach to research in tourism and tourist destinations were obtained by testing, that is, by projecting the specificity of the research process in tourism onto the general research matrix/paradigm represented by the successive gradation of research steps: context, paradigm, epistemology, general methodological orientation and applied concrete methods. The so-called method of chain referral proved to be the most effective in collecting data on the topological structure of the destination network of stakeholders. A hybrid explanatory sequential design in a combination of quantitative and qualitative methodological approach seems to be the most optimal and can be the most useful in researching the relationship between stakeholders in the management of a tourist destination. In previous research in the conceptual field of destination stakeholder networks, the proposed research model is not as specified and focused as in the case of this paper. management. However, there are also certain limitations of this work, which primarily refer to the need for multiple testing of the proposed research model on concrete case studies. Following the highlighted limitations in future research, it is recommended to test the proposed methodological approach and concept on case studies of two qualitatively different destination networks of stakeholders (e.g. coastal and continental) in Croatia to confirm its validity.
Cilj ovoga rada je provesti kritičku analizu dizajna istraživanja u turizmu s naglaskom na interesne dionike u destinacijskoj mreži, koja bi trebala rezultirati pronalaženjem optimalnoga istraživačkog i metodološkog modela u svrhu znanstvene i praktične primjene kod adaptabilnoga i učinkovitoga destinacijskog upravljanja. U radu se razmatra široka lepeza/mapa istraživačkoga dizajna i pristupa u svim fazama istraživačkoga procesa: prikupljanju i procesuiranju podataka te interpretaciji rezultata. Preporuke za pronalaženje adekvatnoga metodološkog pristupa istraživanja u turizmu i turističkoj destinaciji dobivene su testiranjem, odnosno projiciranjem specifičnosti istraživačkoga procesa u turizmu na opću istraživačku matricu/paradigmu predstavljenu sukcesivnom gradacijom istraživačkih koraka: konteksta, paradigme, epistemologije, opće metodološke orijentacije i primijenjenih konkretnih metoda. Metoda tzv. lančanoga referalnog upućivanja pokazala se najučinkovitijom u prikupljanju podataka o topološkoj strukturi destinacijske mreže dionika. Hibridni eksplanatorni sekvencijalni dizajn u kombinatorici kvantitativnoga i kvalitativnoga metodološkog pristupa čini se optimalnim i može biti najkorisniji u istraživanju odnosa među interesnim dionicima u upravljanju turističkom destinacijom. U dosadašnjim istraživanjima na konceptualnom području destinacijskih mreža dionika predloženi istraživački model nije specificiran i fokusiran kao u ovome radu. U ovome radu preporučeni i obrazloženi selektivni istraživački dizajn može bitno olakšati orijentaciju u istraživačkom pristupu budućim znanstvenicima i praktičarima destinacijskog upravljanja. Ograničenja ovoga rada odnose se na potrebu višestrukog testiranja predloženoga istraživačkog modela na konkretnim studijama slučaja. Slijedom tih ograničenja u budućim istraživanjima preporučuje se testirati predloženi metodološki pristup i koncept na studije slučaja dvjema kvalitativno različitim destinacijskim mrežama dionika (npr. primorskoj i kontinentalnoj) u Hrvatskoj za potvrdu njegove valjanosti
Zelena organizacija - stigla u tvrtke ili je još uvijek vizija? Eksplorativno anketno istraživanje provedeno među stručnjacima o značaju održivosti i implementaciji upravljanja održivošću u tvrtkama
No full textScientists and activists have been taking part in the sustainability debate for decades and calling for a rethink in politics and society. A change is becoming noticeable that is also having an impact on companies. They cannot avoid dealing with the issue of sustainability, as internal and external stakeholders exert pressure on them due to their interests. Based on an online survey, this explorative empirical study identifies and analyses what companies understand by the term "sustainability" and what importance is currently attached to sustainability management in companies. In addition, the main advantages of sustainable management for companies and obstacles to the implementation of sustainability in companies are also identified. The results of the study show that sustainability is of great importance to the companies surveyed. For the most part, companies have an understanding of sustainability. Reasons for "sustainable entrepreneurship" are based in particular on economic and "green" motives; the main reason is therefore to improve the image of the companies. The main obstacles to implementing "sustainable entrepreneurship" are the time required, the high costs and uncertainty about the economic benefits. The sustainability requirements are hardly or only partially perceived as a burden. Corporate goals and guidelines together form an important factor in establishing sustainability in the organizational culture. Companies voluntarily align themselves partially or completely with standardized environmental management norms.Znanstvenici i aktivisti već desetljećima sudjeluju u debatama o održivosti i pozivaju na promjene u politici i društvu. Promjene koje postaju uočljive imaju utjecaj i na tvrtke. One ne mogu izbjeći suočavanje s pitanjem održivosti, jer unutarnji i vanjski dionici vrše pritisak na njih zbog svojih interesa. Na temelju online ankete, ovo eksplorativno empirijsko istraživanje identificira i analizira što tvrtke podrazumijevaju pod pojmom "održivost" i kakva se važnost u ovom trenutku pridaje upravljanju održivošću u tvrtkama. Istraživanje također identificira glavne prednosti održivog upravljanja, kao i prepreke u implementaciji održivosti u tvrtkama. Rezultati istraživanja pokazuju da je održivost od velike važnosti za tvrtke uključene u istraživanje. Tvrtke su u većini pokazale razumijevanje pojma održivosti. Razlozi za "održivo poslovanje" temelje se posebno na ekonomskim i "zelenim" motivima; glavni razlog je poboljšanje imidža tvrtke. Glavne prepreke za implementaciju "održivog poslovanja" je potrebno vrijeme, visoki troškovi i nesigurnost u pogledu ekonomskih koristi. Zahtjevi održivosti rijetko se ili samo djelomično percipiraju kao opterećenje. Korporativni ciljevi i smjernice zajedno čine važan faktor u uspostavi održivosti u organizacijskoj kulturi. Tvrtke se dobrovoljno usklađuju sa standardiziranim normama upravljanja okolišem djelomično ili u potpunosti
Pedagoški diskurs romana Igra staklenim perlama Hermanna Hessea
No full textIn Croatian scientific literature, there hasn’t been any published work that comprehensively analyzes and interprets Hermann Hesse’s novel The Glass Bead Game from a pedagogical standpoint. Therefore, the primary aim of this paper is to delve into an analysis of the novel through the lens of pedagogy, focusing particularly on the education, learning experiences, and upbringing of the protagonist, Josef Knecht, across different stages of his life. During elementary school, the developmental phase initiates initial interactions with the environment, shapes attitudes towards learning and education, and significantly influences the formation of Knecht’s personality. Moving into secondary education, this phase signifies maturity and the confrontation of various challenges. It becomes a pivotal period where Knecht discovers his own interests, establishes his individuality, and solidifies his beliefs. The relationships he fosters with teachers, friends and family during this phase play a fundamental role in shaping his values and understanding of society. As he advances into higher education, it becomes a time of intellectual growth and an opportunity for exploring personal interests. Knecht’s journey through this educational phase offers profound insights into his creativity, acquisition of new knowledge, and the construction of his identity. Beyond the formal aspects of education, the impact of relationships with educators, friends, and family continues to mold his character. By examining this developmental process through a pedagogical lens, the analysis provides valuable insights into how different stages of education have contributed to shaping Knecht’s personality and worldview. Simultaneously, it scrutinizes the pivotal roles that teachers, family, friends, and the overall school environment have played in his formative years. This approach to interpretation and analysis also serves to deepen our comprehension of how pedagogical theories function in practical contexts, using the novel as a platform to illustrate various pedagogical concepts and their influence on the maturation of a young individual.U hrvatskoj znanstvenoj literaturi do sada nije objavljen rad koji bi kroz pedagoški aspekt analizirao i interpretirao roman Igra staklenim perlama Hermanna Hessea. Stoga je temeljni zadatak ovoga rada predstaviti analizu romana kroz pedagošku prizmu, čime je fokus stavljen na odgoj, učenje i obrazovanje protagonista Josefa Knechta tijekom različitih razdoblja njegova života. Osnovnoškolska faza razvoja donosi prve interakcije s okolinom, oblikuje stavove prema učenju i obrazovanju te ima utjecaj na oblikovanje njegove osobnosti. Srednjoškolsko obrazovanje označava sazrijevanje i suočavanje s izazovima. To je razdoblje kada se Knecht susreće s vlastitim interesima, pronalazi svoju individualnost i stvara čvršće stavove. Odnos s učiteljima, vršnjacima i obitelji ima ključan utjecaj na oblikovanje njegovih vrijednosti i shvaćanja društva. Visoko obrazovanje donosi intelektualni razvoj i priliku za istraživanje vlastitih interesa, a Knechtov put kroz ovu fazu obrazovanja pruža uvid u njegovo stvaralaštvo, usvajanje novih znanja i stvaranje identiteta. Osim formalnog obrazovanja, utjecaj odnosa s učiteljima, prijateljima i obitelji nastavlja oblikovati njegov karakter. Analiza ovoga procesa kroz pedagoški aspekt omogućuje uvid u to kako su različite faze obrazovanja oblikovale Knechtovu osobnost i perspektivu. Istovremeno, istražuje se kako su učitelji, obitelj, prijatelji i školsko okruženje imali važnu ulogu u njegovu formiranju. Ovakav pristup interpretaciji, odnosno analizi, također pomaže u razumijevanju funkcioniranja teorije pedagogije u praksi, koristeći roman kao ilustraciju različitih pedagoških koncepta i njihov utjecaj na razvoj mlade osobe
Evolutions and threats to land management in the peri-urban area of the city of Sidi Bel Abbes (Algeria) - an analysis based on spatial cadastral data
No full textSidi Bel Abbes, the capital of Mekerra, a city of the interior plain, where agricultural land has experienced urban spillover at the expense of peri-urban land. The accelerated sprawl between 1987 and 2019 is expressed by threats to peri-urban state land, the pressure on agricultural activity on the peripheries of the city, and a relaxation of respect for planning policies at the local level. How can peri-urban land be better protected, and consequently encourage agricul-tural use, without abandoning it? This work analyses the legal nature of the land taken for the benefit of urban construction and characterizes its spread using Landsat multispectral satellite data. Our approach is based on the following question: Does urban sprawl impact the man-agement of land and its legal nature? What is the future of this land in the face of current threats and future planning and urban development orientations? The cartographic analyses with the actual practices of the different social groups in the field have made it possible to evaluate the relationship between agricultural policy, and implementation and to situate the conflicts or threats about urban sprawl. The north of the city of Sidi Bel Abbes (cadastral sec-tion n°3, 324.74 ha), is where 45% of state land is acquired for building purposes. A reorienta-tion of the peri-urban land is currently presented by a new management mode of an individual type, as a means of freezing and/or preserving the land: the creation of hedges and fences, the introduction of arboriculture (olive tree or other). Observations on site made it possible to ex-plain these practices, which are at the origin of these current representations. The crops prac-tice is linked to the profit drawn on compensations, and the plantations are a source of good remuneration
Crkva i samostan Sv. Marije od Anđela u Osoru: tradicija, izvori i arhitektura
No full textThe paper explores the history and architecture of the former Benedictine nunnery and Clarissan convent of St Mary of the Angels in Osor. This little-studied complex, whose remains can be observed in a private courtyard next to the southwestern walls (Osor 73), calls for systematic archaeological research. Until then, it is possible to outline the crucial events of its history and to present introductory remarks on the dating of its architectural remains. The paper is thus a parallel reading of mid-18th-century texts (Annales Camaldulenses and Illyricum Sacrum) and earlier, 16th-century archival sources. It is argued that the tradition concerning the foundation of the female Benedictine community in Osor in the first half of the 11th century cannot be corroborated by sources and that it is highly unlikely that such a community existed there before the 1530s. Further attention is devoted to the appearance and decoration of the monastic church and its altars, once furnished with wooden altars and imagery. Finally, it is tentatively argued that the outer wall of the private courtyard once belonged to an earlier church, henceforth unrecorded in the bibliography on Osor.O samostanu Sv. Marije od Anđela u Osoru, ukinutom 1743. godine i razrušenom sredinom 19. stoljeća, gotovo da nije pisano. Rijetki navodi u literaturi prenose podatke iz dvaju kompendija crkvenih povijesti iz 18. stoljeća, Kamaldoljanskih anala i Svetog Ilirika, koji govore o osnutku ženske redovničke zajednice u 11. stoljeću i njezinu kontinuitetu do ukidanja. Tako rani postanak nije vjerojatan, a usporednim čitanjem ranijih pisanih izvora moguće je rasvijetliti okolnosti osnivanja samostana u 16. stoljeću, ali i etape njegova daljnjeg života. U radu se također razmatraju unutrašnje uređenje nekadašnje samostanske crkve, njezini izgubljeni oltari s drvenim skulpturama i kasniji, mramorni inventar, dijelom sačuvan ponovnom upotrebom. Na lokalitetu u zapadnom dijelu grada na kojem je samostan podignut sredinom 16. stoljeća, međutim, razlikuje se nekoliko ranijih faza koje – iako nisu povezane sa samostanom – zavređuju posebnu obradu. U svojstvu prolegomene za buduća arheološka istraživanja, u radu se upozorava na zid s lezenama (dio pročelja crkve iz 16. stoljeća, a danas ogradni zid dvorišta), u kojem se prepoznaju ostatci neke ranije crkve nepoznatog titulara
Estetsko iskustvo u glazbenim salonima tijekom fin de siècle: slučaj salona obitelji Brajković iz Perasta
No full textThe paper explores the potentialities of musical and visual experience in bourgeois salons of the fin de siècle. In response to the evolving musical experience within private spaces, where instrumental performances were believed to elicit individual contemplation, music salons of the late 19th century were organised in line with the principles of an aesthetic experience that unified auditory and visual perception. The case study in this paper is the salon of the Brajković family in Perast, Bay of Kotor, one of the rare music salons from the late 19th century that has preserved its original decor to the present day. The paper examines the visual manifestation of music in this space, its iconographic features and representative value, drawing upon insights and approaches from art history, as well as the history of music, philosophy, and cultural anthropology. The objective has been to analyse the meaning, role, and value of music salons as distinctive aesthetic and conceptual spaces present in the Bay of Kotor at the close of the 19th century.Rad će se usredotočiti na analizu potencijala glazbenog i vizualnog doživljaja u građanskim salonima tijekom fin de siècle. Idući ukorak s onovremenom transformacijom glazbenog iskustva, potaknutom uvjerenjima da izvedba instrumentalne glazbe u privatnom prostoru može stimulirati individualnu kontemplaciju, saloni krajem stoljeća postaju uređeni u skladu s načelima estetskog doživljaja koji objedinjuje auditivnu i vizualnu percepciju. Studija slučaja u ovom radu je salon obitelji Brajković iz Perasta u Boki kotorskoj, jedan od rijetkih glazbenih salona s kraja 19. stoljeća koji je sačuvao izvorno uređenje. U radu se tumači vizualna manifestacija glazbe u ovom salonu, njezina ikonografska obilježja i reprezentativna vrijednost. Interpretacija obuhvaća znanja i pristupe iz povijesti umjetnosti, a osim toga autorica će se osloniti i na spoznaje iz područja povijesti glazbe, povijesti filozofije i kulturne antropologije. Cilj rada jest analiza značenja, uloge i vrijednosti glazbenog salona kao osobitog estetskog i konceptualnog prostora koji se krajem 19. stoljeća pojavljuje na teritoriju Boke kotorske
Projekt i izgradnja pristupnog stepeništa župnoj crkvi u Prčanju
No full textThe access staircase at the parish church in Prčanj is a striking example of Dalmatian coastal architecture and an inspiring element of the view over the Bay of Kotor. It is the largest and most impressive staircase in the Eastern Adriatic used to access a sacral building from the sea. This paper focuses on the design, models, and construction phases of the staircase used to access the church designed by the Venetian architect Bernardino Maccaruzzi. In scholarly literature, information about the staircase is scarce, yet speculations are many. Maccaruzzi’s original drawing was lost at some point and the staircase with the balustrade was built later, according to a design by architect Milan Karlovac. It was carved in the workshop of Ivan Fabris on the island of Vrnik near Korčula and constructed in 1912-1913 by the Czech mason Josef Večernik. This is the first time that its conceptual design, sketches done by the stonemasons and builders, and the quotes, cost estimates, and construction contracts have been published. The discovery of these documents has allowed us to reconstruct the building process, and we have also been able to reassess some of the previous assumptions, doubts, and opinions, thus shedding light on yet another valuable monument of Prčanj’s and Bay of Kotor’s architectural past.Pristupno stepenište prčanjskoj župnoj crkvi snažan je detalj graditeljstva naše obale i nezaboravan dio vizure bokokotorskog zaljeva, ali i najveće i najdojmljivije stepenište na istočnoj obali Jadrana kojim se s mora pristupa nekom sakralnom objektu. U članku se obrađuje projekt, uzori i slijed gradnje pristupnog stepeništa crkvi koju je projektirao venecijanski arhitekt Bernardino Maccaruzzi. U dosadašnjoj literaturi o stepeništu nalazimo rijetki podatak i mnoge pretpostavke, a Maccaruzzijev crtež nije se sačuvao te je kasnije izgrađeno prema projektu arhitekta Milana Karlovca. Stepenište s balustradom isklesano je u radionici Ivana Fabrisa na otoku Vrniku kraj Korčule, a građevinske radove i konstrukciju izveo je godine 1912. – 1913. češki graditelj Josef Večernik. Ovdje prvi put objavljujemo projektni nacrt, skice kamenoklesara i graditelja te sadržaje ponuda, troškovnika i ugovora o gradnji. Pronalazak ove dokumentacije otvorio nam je mogućnost rekonstrukcije tijeka gradnje, a također smo mogli provjeriti, potvrditi ili opovrgnuti dosadašnje pretpostavke, sumnje i mišljenja te time rasvijetliti još jedan vrijedan dio prčanjske i bokeljske graditeljske prošlosti
