Identiteti na razmeđu: Vojvodina između Srbije i Jugoslavije
U radu se daje istorijski pregled geneze borbe srpskog naroda za autonomiju u južnoj Ugarskoj
uz posebno apostrofiranje Majske skupštine (1848) i Blagoveštenskog sabora (1861). Središnji
deo rada odnosi se na društveni, ustavni, politički i ekonomski položaj Vojvodine u Кraljevini
Jugoslaviji posle prisajedinjenja 1918. godine. Ekonomski problemi tokom 1920-ih
godina kreirali su ambijent za političku borbu pretežno srpskog građanstva za promenom
ustavnog položaja Vojvodine u Кraljevini Jugoslaviji. Drugi središnji deo rada se odnosi na Vojvodinu
i Drugom svetskom ratu i njeno institucionalno i vojno izrastanje u posebnu pokrajinu
federativne Jugoslavije koja se konstituisala tokom antifašističkog rata. Treći, središnji
deo rada, odnosi se na konstituisanje Vojvodine kao autonomne pokrajine i složenu dinamiku
koju je ostvarivala kako sa federacijom, tako i sa matičnom republikom – Srbijom. Posebno su
apostrofirane borbe za autonomiju početkom 1960-ih godina i duboke ustavne promene krajem
60-ih i početkom 70-ig godina 20. veka
Hedonism
Most ancient philosophical, especially ethical, theories devoted a lot of attention to the
wellbeing of citizens in the ancient polis (πόλις), with the main goal of exploring how to achieve
happiness and comfortable, meaningful life. This was mainly explained by combining two
concepts – eudaimonia (εὐδαιμονία) – flourishing, wellbeing, a kind of happiness that entails life
led, ruled and guided by reason, and hedone (ἡδονή) – pleasure as a goal of life and ultimate aim
of philosophy. However, hedonism has often been juxtaposed with egoism, with the explanation
that the only thing people desire for their own sake is pleasure.
In the consumerist and materialistic society in which we live today, selfishness is common, especially
in cities – centres of human interaction in a very limited space, with limited resources, and shared
goods, which even brought us to “The Tragedy of the Commons” as put by some scholars.
Therefore, the main question posed in the presentation is how to equilibrate this dichotomy of
seeking and achieving one`s own pleasure, without jeopardizing others` wellbeing in a city, that
is, achieving some kind of altruistic hedonism in a specific place.
One of the first steps might be demanding a careful and delicate holistic approach to production
and development of cities in order to integrate materiality of architectural forms and urban
infrastructure, with immaterial social, cultural and economic events that take place in a city. These events and behaviours strongly depend on the social reality and the context in which events take
place. Even though already with the urban uprising in the 1960s and 1970s scholars spoke about
just cities and right to cities, it is of utmost importance to reconsider these ideas once more
Virtual Overcomming of Representationalism
Virtuality
Virtuality is first seen as a way of overcoming the representational semantic paradigm embodied in the concept of simulation. It will be shown that virtuality overcomes the simulative relation of signification by creating an alternative version of reality, so not fake (simulated) real objects, but true virtual objects. We are talking about objects for which the question of the real referent, the signified one, that is, the real reality, does not play any role. In the context of these considerations, it is important to determine the position of the concept of fiction, because, like the virtual, the fictional world (spatially and temporally) separates itself from the criteria of the true and false „objective“ world and creates its own criteria of truth that do not necessarily coincide with those of the real world. When it comes to virtuality, there is a key shift in these relations, because unlike the fictional world, in the virtual world, subject interaction with the virtual space is possible, whereby the subject's autonomy is not questioned in principle. This concept of virtuality coincides with what is called virtual reality, and refers primarily to technically induced virtual worlds. The categorical shift that we call real virtuality is also technically conditioned, which removes the fictitious dimension from virtual reality in such a way as to introduce it into the world of real objective relations, tending to erase any difference between the actions of technical systems and reality itself
O estetskoj revoluciji i političkoj subjektivizaciji: jugoslovenska ženska književnost 30-ih godina dvadesetog veka
Preserving and Dissemination of Digitized Sound Heritage in Contemporary Times: The Potential of Blockchain Technology
Following recent technological changes, the archival profession will reach the moment of surpassing previously dominant mediaspheres, in which sounds and images were stored in traditionally located archives. This is not to say that traditional archives are not needed anymore – on the contrary. In this article, I will try to bring out the possibilities of upgrading traditional archives with the help of blockchain technology and to analyse the complex navigation between online market and commodification in the world of contemporary ethnomusicological contribution to sound heritage archiving
