    No full text
    Ekosustav čine živi i neživi pojedinci koji međusobno djeluju i funkcioniraju u istome staništu. Ekosustav Jadranskoga mora obuhvaća mnoge organizme: od riba, preko školjkaša i ostalih morskih organizama koji sve više odumiru. Naime, sve je jači utjecaj onečišćenja, klimatskih promjena i ribolova uslijed čega ovaj ekosustav gubi svoju kvalitetu. Nastupa odumiranje živih bića i smanjivanje njihovih staništa što nikako nije dobro. U Jadransko more ulaze nove, invazivne vrste koje napadaju one „stare“, autohtone i narušavaju njihova staništa. Osim invazivnih vrsta, veliki problem za Jadransko more i ribe u njemu čine ribolov i ribolovni turizam. Ribolovci su često neoprezni te im, uslijed ulova, nerijetko ostane mnogo opreme u moru što kasnije djeluje na probavni trakt riba i ostalih organizama u moru. Jedino je podvodni ribolov siguran u tom pogledu jer kod njega nema mogućnosti da išta što može naštetiti ribama ostane u moru.An ecosystem is made up of living and non-living individuals that interact and function in the same habitat. The ecosystem of the Adriatic Sea includes many organisms, from fish, shellfish and other dying marine organisms. Namely, there is more and more pollution, climate change and fishing, as a result of which this ecosystem is losing its qualities. There is an extinction of living beings and the reduction of their habitats, which is not good at all. New, invasive species are entering the Adriatic Sea, attacking the "old", autochthonous ones and disturbing their habitats. Apart from invasive species, a big problem for the Adriatic Sea and the fish in it is fishing and fishing tourism. Fishermen are often careless and, due to their catch, they often have a lot of equipment left in the sea, which later affects the digestive tract of fish and other organisms in the sea. Only spearfishing is safe in this regard because it does not have the ability to keep anything that could harm the fish in the sea

    Turizam kao vodeća gospodarska grana Hrvatske, čini veliki udio u cjelokupnom BDP-u države što rezultira pozitivnim trendovima u svim društvenim i ekonomskim aspektima. Kako bismo ostali konkuretni na tržištu, promicali identitet i ljepote koje proizlaze iz prirodnih resursa kojima se diči naša zemlja, važno je ulagati u vještine učenja i usvajanja stranog jezika. Zbog svog geografskog položaja i povijesnih okolnosti, talijanski jezik se nameće kao nužna vještina kojom je potrebno ovladati kako bi svakodnevna komunikacija u turizmu bila olakšana.Tourism, as a leading sector of economy of Croatia, accounts for a large share of the country’s total GDP resulting in positive trends in all social and economic aspects. To remain competitive in the tourism market, as well as promote the identity and all beautiful natural resources that our country takes pride in, it is important to invest in learning and acquiring a foreign language. Due to its geographical location and historical background, the Italian language imposes itself as a necessary skill that needs to be mastered in order to facilitate everyday communication in tourism

    Najvažniji prihodi svake države su porezi. Porez na dohodak je jedan od najznačajnijih poreza u modernim državama, ne samo zbog svoje financijske izdašnosti nego i zbog toga jer je pogodan instrument za ostvarenje nekih nefiskalnih ciljeva. Porez na dohodak je izravni porez koji se nameće izravno na fizičku osobu. U Hrvatskoj se prvi oblik poreza na dohodak pojavljuje 1990. godine i tijekom vremena doživio je moge promjene i izmjene. U RH porez na dohodak definiran je Zakonom o porezu na dohodak te dodatno propisan Pravilnikom o porezu na dohodak. Zakonom se definiraju pojmovi, izvori dohotka, načini utvrđivanja dohotka, izračun i plaćanje poreza te odbici i olakšice. Porez na dohodak se razlikuje u raznim zemljama zavisno o njenom uređenju, ekonomskoj moći i fiskalnim ciljevima.The most important income of every state are taxes. Income tax is one of the most important taxes in modern countries, not only because of financial generosity but also because it is a suitable instrument for achieving some non-fiscal goals. Income tax is direct tax imposed on the individual. In Croatia, first form of income tax appeared in 1990., and during a time it passed through many changes. Income tax in Republic of Croatia is defined by the Law of income tax, and additionally prescribed by the Order of income tax. Law prescribes terms, sources of income, methods of determination, calculation and payments of taxes, and also deductions and reliefs. Income tax is different in every state, depending on her organization, economic power and fiscal targets

    Iako se gastronomija smatra jednom od mlađih disciplina, njeni počeci sežu daleko u povijest. Međutim, tek je posljednjih godina doživjela porast u svom razvoju kao i broj zainteresiranih za gastronomiju i gastronomski turizam. Budući da turisti postaju sve zahtjevniji u svakom pogledu, i u aspektu prehrane proširuju svoje zahtjeve, tj. traže sigurniju i zdraviju hranu. Stoga je vrlo važno da svaka turistička destinacija koja želi biti uspješna puno pažnje posveti upravo gastronomskom turizmu. Svrha i cilj rada je prikazati pojmove turizma i gastronomije, njihov razvoj kroz povijest te povezanost turizma i gastronomije. Naime, želi se pokazati koliki je utjecaj gastronomije na turizam te koja je turistička gastronomska ponuda Republike Hrvatske.Although gastronomy is a younger discipline, its beginnings go far back in history. However, only in recent years, gastronomy has experienced an increase in its development as well as the number of people interested in gastronomy and gastronomic tourism. As tourists become more demanding in every way, they also expand their requirements in terms of nutrition, which means that they are looking for safer and healthier food. Therefore, every tourist destination that wants to be successful must pay a lot of attention to gastronomic tourism. The purpose and goal of the paper are to present the concepts of tourism and gastronomy, their development through history and the connection between tourism and gastronomy. Therefore, it wants to show what is the impact of gastronomy on tourism and what is the tourist gastronomic offer of the Republic of Croatia

    EU je imala i još uvijek ima određeni utjecaj na razvoj javne uprave u RH i određeni pomaci su vidljivi, ali to još uvijek nije dovoljno i potrebno je još mnogo rada, političke volje i odlučnosti. Hrvatska javna uprava i dalje kaska za provođenjem reformi. Postoji snažan otpor promjenama i modernizaciji uprave u višim profesionalnim slojevima koji se reflektira odugovlačenjem reformi i odbacivanjem inovacija u postupcima. Upravne promjene odvijaju se uz stalne sukobe prema načelima onih koji se zalažu za radikalno minimiziranje uloge države i onih koji žele očuvati tradicionalni model hrvatske uprave kao oslonac državnog kontinuiteta. Hrvatska je stvorila centralizirani, hijerarhijski sustav pod čvrstom kontrolom i u službi politike na svim upravnim razinama koji je potrebno mijenjati. Dosadašnje se upravne promjene u Hrvatskoj tiču pet glavnih pitanja a to su: decentralizacija i demokratizacija, stvaranje transparentne i otvorene javne uprave, uvođenje sustava razvoja i upravljanje ljudskim potencijalima, modernizacija uprave i eksperimentiranje s elementima javnog menadžmenta. Ovaj završni rad iznosi uvjete koje EU postavila Hrvatskoj kako bi postala punopravna članica, reforme, odnosno mjere koje je Hrvatska provela te što još mora napraviti kako bi upravo modernizirala i unaprijedila javnu upravu. Javna uprava u svakom pogledu trebala bi služiti javnom interesu i uživati povjerenje zajednice, to za Hrvatsku znači da mora biti orijentirana prvenstveno na ključne javne probleme, odgovorna prema građanima i da mora postupati prema zakonima. Posebnu pozornost treba posvetiti na provedbu reformi koje su povezane i međusobno interferiraju a okvirno se mogu promatrati iz tri perspektive: funkcionalne, strukturno-organizacijske i personalne. Umjesto potreba vlasti i samog državnog upravnog mehanizma u prvi plan treba staviti građane i njihove potrebe u zajednici. Umjesto hijerarhijskog koncepta vladanja potrebno je uspostaviti horizontalni koncept vladavine i participativnog javnog upravljanja. Hrvatska ima još dosta posla kako bi javnu upravu uskladila sa europskim standardima.The EU has had and still has some influence on the development of public administration in the Republic of Croatia and some progressisvisible, but it is still not enough and much more work, political wil land determination is needed. Croatian public administration continues to lag behind inimplementing reforms. There is strong resistance to change and modernization of the administration in the higher professional strata, which is reflected in the delay of reforms and there jection of innovations in procedures. Administrative changes are taking place with constant conflicts according to the principle sof those who advocate the radical minimization of the role of the state and those who want to preserve the traditional model of Croatian administration as a pillar of state continuity. Croatia has created a centralized, hierarchical system under tight control and in the service of politics at all administrative level that needs to be changed. The current administrative changes in Croatia concern five mainissues: decentralization and democratization, creation of a transparent and open public administration, introduction of a development system and human resources management, modernization of the administration and experimentation with elements of public management. This final paper presents the conditions that the EU has set for Croatia inorder to become a full member, there forms, iethe meures that Croatia has implemented and what still needs to bedoneinorder to modernize and improve public administration. Public administration in every respects hould serve the public interestand enjoy the trust of the community, which for Croatia means that it must be focused primarily on key public issues, accountable to citizensand must actina ccordance with the law. Special attention should be paid to the implementation of reforms that are inter connected and interfering with each other and can be roughly viewed from three perspectives: functional, structural-organization aland personal. Instead of the needs of the government and the state administrative mechanism itself, thecitizens and their needs in the community should be put in the foreground. Instead of a hierarchical concept of governance, it is necessary to establish a horizontal concep to fgovernance and participatory public governance. Croatia still has a lot of work to do to bring public administrationin line with European standards

    TRADITIONAL SLAVONIAN PRODUCTS IN TOURISM

    Tradicijska kuhinja je nešto što nas vodi u prošlost, na same početke gastronomije. Približava nas izvornim okusima koji su kroz vrijeme potisnuti gastronomskim novitetima i nekim modernim inačicama. Tradicijska Slavonska kuhinja nije bazirana toliko na izgledu, nego o bogatstvu okusa i začina. U sadašnjici sve više raste interes kod gastronoma i turista prema tradicionalizmu. Gastronomija i proizvodi Slavonije nisu toliko medijski popraćene kao gastronomija i proizvodi Dalmacije i Istre u turizmu te mi je svrha i cilj rada približiti turistu tradicionalne slavonske proizvode, njihovu gastro ponudu, izradu i zastupljenost u turizmu danas te dati bolji uvid zašto je gastronomija Slavonije bogata ne samo jelima i proizvodima nego i tradicijom.Traditional cuisine is something that takes us to the past, to the very beginnings of gastronomy. It brings us closer to the original flavors that over time have been suppressed by gastronomic novelties and some modern versions. Traditional Slavonian cuisine is not based so much on appearance, but on the richness of flavors and spices. At present, the interest of gastronomes and tourists towards traditionalism is growing. Gastronomy and products of Slavonia are not so much covered by the media as gastronomy and products of Dalmatia and Istria in tourism, so my purpose and goal is to bring tourists closer to traditional Slavonian products, their gastronomic offer, production and representation in tourism today and give a better insight into why Slavonian gastronomy is rich not only by dishes and products but also by tradition

    Godinama unazad jedna od najčešćih mjera kontrole prilikom izbijanja epidemija bila je ograničavanje kretanja koje se temeljilo na medicinskim spoznajama. Pandemija koronavirusa nije samo zdravstveni problem, već predstavlja opasnost za cjelokupno gospodarstvo. Epidemiološke mjere koje su uvedene s ciljem zaustavljanja širenja virusa SARS-CoV-2 rezultirale su kobnim posljedicama za turizam, a zatvaranje granica i ograničenje putovanja pokazale su koliko države ovise jedna o drugoj. Pandemija ovog novog koronavirusa promijenila je kvalitetu života ljudi tako što je utjecala na ljudsko zdravlje, ali i na financije. Turizam je jedna od najvažnijih grana u Hrvatskoj i mnogi ljudi ostvaruju prihode isključivo iz turizma. Cilj ovog rada je prikazati utjecaj pandemije na turizam u 2020. sa posebnim osvrtom na turizam u Republici Hrvatskoj, odnosno na promjene nastale kao posljedica COVID-19 bolesti.For years, one of the most common control measures during epidemics was to restrict movement based on medical knowledge. The coronavirus pandemic is not just a health problem, but a threat to the entire economy. Epidemiological measures introduced to stop the spread of the SARS-CoV-2 virus have resulted in fatal consequences for tourism, and border closures and travel restrictions have shown how dependent countries are on each other. The coronavirus pandemic has changed the quality of life of people by affecting human health but also finances. Tourism is one of the most important branches in Croatia and many people earn income exclusively from tourism. The aim of this paper is to present the impact of the pandemic on tourism in 2020 with special reference to tourism in the Republic of Croatia, or the changes caused by the COVID-19 disease

    Povelja temeljnih ljudskih prava Europske unije je najznačajniji dokument zaštite ljudskih prava na razini Europske unije koji je donesen u listopadu 2000. godine, a stupio je na snagu u prosincu 2009. godine zajedno s Lisabonskim ugovorom. Povelja sadrži sva temeljna prava svih koji žive u uniji te je uvedena kako bi se unijela dosljednost i jasnoća u donesena prava te joj je svrha sva ta prava učiniti očitima. Drugim riječima, povelja je jedna jedinstvena i jednostavna zbirka svih građanskih, političkih, ekonomskih i socijalnih prava te ujedno je i potvrda da smo svi stanovnici Europske unije, zahvaljujući njome, jednaki.The Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union is the most important document for the protection of human rights at the level of the European Union, which was adopted in October 2000 and entered into force in December 2009 together with the Lisbon Treaty. The Charter contains all the fundamental rights of all who live in the Union and was introduced in order to bring consistency and clarity to the adopted rights and its purpose is to make all these rights obvious. In other words, the Charter is a unique and simple collection of all civil, political, economic and social rights, and it is also a confirmation that all the inhabitants of the European Union, thanks to it, are equal

    Zaštita ljudskih prava unutar sustava Ujedinjenih naroda

    Ustavom Republike Hrvatske iz 1990. godine, državni i pravni sustav Republike Hrvatske obogaćen je novom institucijom - pučkim pravobraniteljem. Uvođenjem ove institucije u pravni sustav Republike Hrvatske posljedica je sve šireg nastojanja skrbi za prava i slobode čovjeka i građanina, kao i želja za izbjegavanjem moguće samovoljnosti nositelja javne vlasti u njihovim svakodnevnim odnosima s građanima. Pučki pravobranitelj prema Ustavu Republike Hrvatske opunomoćenik je Hrvatskog sabora za promicanje i zaštitu ljudskih prava i sloboda utvrđenih Ustavom, zakonima i međunarodnim pravnim aktima o ljudskim pravima i slobodama koje je prihvatila Republika Hrvatska. Glavni cilj pučkog pravobranitelja jest da štiti ustavna i zakonska prava građana koja mogu biti povrijeđena nezakonitim ili nepravilnim radom državnih tijela, tijela jedinica lokalne i područne (regionalne) samouprave i tijela s javnim ovlastima. Pučkog pravobranitelja bira Hrvatski sabor na mandat od osam godina uz mogućnost ponovnog izbora.With the Constitution of the Republic of Croatia from 1990, the structure of the state and legal system was enriched with a new institution - the Ombudsman. The introduction of this institution into the legal system of the Republic of Croatia is a consequence of the growing efforts to care for the rights and freedoms of man and citizen, as well as the desire to avoid possible arbitrariness of public authorities in their daily relations with citizens. According to the Constitution of the Republic of Croatia, the Ombudsman is a proxy of the Croatian Parliament for the promotion and protection of human rights and freedoms established by the Constitution, laws and international legal acts on human rights and freedoms adopted by the Republic of Croatia. The main goal of the Ombudsman is to protect the constitutional and legal rights of citizens that may be violated by illegal or improper work of state bodies, bodies of local and regional self-government units and bodies with public authority. The Ombudsman is elected by the Croatian Parliament for a term of eight years with the possibility of re-election
