Formalism around 1800: A Grudging Concession to Aesthetic Sensibility
This paper compares the outwardly similar structural formalisms of Marc- Antoine Laugier and Arthur Schopenhauer (who uses many of Laugier’s examples). Laugier purports to base his aesthetics on an historical argument from the “primitive hut”; but his preferences are really based on aversion to structurally and programmatically non-functional elements. His preferences show disregard for purely aesthetic considerations, such as pleasing proportions. Schopenhauer’s formalism is based on his cognitivist approach to aesthetics, according to which architecture is above all supposed to demonstrate relations between load and support, but in spite of this shows greater sensitivity to sensory beauty.Ovaj članak poredi naizgled sličan strukturalni formalizam Mark-Antoan Ložijea i Artura Šo-penhauera (koji je koristio mnoge Ložijeove primere). Ložije zasniva svoju estetiku na istorij-skom argumentu polazeći od „primitivne kolibe“, ali njegove preferenciju su ipak zasnovane na averziji prema strukturalno i programski nefunkcionalnim elementima. One otkrivaju ne-haj za razmatranja koja su čisto estetska, kao što su to proporcije koje izazivaju zadovoljstvo. Šopenhauerov formalizam zasniva se na njegovom kognitivističkom pristupu estetici prema kome bi arhitektura, pre svega, trebalo da demonstrira odnos između opterećenja i oslonca, ali uprkos tome pokazuje veću osetljivost za čulnu lepotu
Rethinking Serbian-Albanian Relations Figuring out the Enemy
Identifying and explaining common views, ideas and traditions, this volume challenges the concept of Serbian-Albanian hostility by reinvestigating recent and historical events in the region. The contributors put forward critically oriented initiatives and alternatives to shed light on a range of relations and perspectives.
The central aim of the book is to ‘figure out’ the problematic relations between Serbs and Albanians – that is, to comprehend its origins and the actors involved, and to find ways to resolve and deal with this enmity. Treating the hostility as a construct of a long-running discourse about the Serbian or Albanian ‘Other’, scholars and intellectuals from Serbia, Kosovo and Albania examine the origins, channels, agents and mediums of this discourse from the 18th century to the present. Tracing the roots of the two ethnic groups' political divisions, contemporary practices and actions allows the contributors to reconsider mutually held negative perceptions and identify elements of a common, shared history. Examples of past and current cooperation are used to offer a critical analysis of all three societies.
This interdisciplinary publication brings together historiographical, literary, sociological, political, anthropological and philosophical analyses and enquiries and will be of interest to researchers in the fields of sociology, politics, cultural studies, history or anthropology; and to academics working in Slavonic and East European studies.Southeast European Studies Series
The Balkans are a region of Europe widely associated over the past decades with violence and war. Beyond this violence, the region has experienced rapid change in recent times though, including democratization, economic and social transformation. New scholarship is emerging which seeks to move away from the focus on violence alone to an understanding of the region in a broader context drawing on new empirical research.
The Southeast European Studies Series seeks to provide a forum for this new scholarship. Publishing cutting-edge, original research and contributing to a more profound understanding of Southeastern Europe while focusing on contemporary perspectives the series aims to explain the past and seeks to examine how it shapes the present. Focusing on original empirical research and innovative theoretical perspectives on the region the series includes original monographs and edited collections. It is interdisciplinary in scope, publishing high-level research in political science, history, anthropology, sociology, law and economics and accessible to readers interested in Southeast Europe and beyond

Hjumova teorija društvene konstitucije sopstva
Hume distinguishes between the self of thought and imagination and the self of the passions. He is criticized for contradicting himself as he allegedly attributes fictitiousness to the self in book one of the Treatise but later reintroduces the self in books two and three. Hume’s account of the idea of the self, however, is not contradictory: he shows the impossibility of a pure associationist-empiricist account of the self. Instead, he proposes a social account of the constitution of the idea of the self and consciousness. In doing so, Hume’s account of the self anticipates social-historical theories of the self.Hjum razlikuje sopstvo misli i uobrazilje i sopstvo strasti. Kritikuje se jer protivreči sebi zbog toga što navodno pripisuje fiktivnost sopstvu u prvoj knjizi Rasprave, a kasnije ponovo uvodi sopstvo u drugoj i trećoj knjizi. Hjumovo razmatranje ideje sopstva, međutim, nije protivreč-no: on pokazuje nemogućnost čisto asocijaciono-empirističkog razmatranja sopstva. Umesto toga, predlaže društveno razmatranje konstitucije ideje sopstva i svesti. Čineći to, Hjumovo razmatranje sopstva anticipira društveno-istorijske teorije sopstva
Reasons of Love and Moral Thinking
There are two widely-held intuitions about morality. One is the claim that all
persons have equal moral worth; the other is that sometimes we are morally allowed or
even required to give preference to those individuals whom we love. How can we justify
our reasons of love in the face of moral egalitarianism? As of recently, there are three
mutually competing accounts of why it could be said that we have reasons of love: (i)
the projects view, (ii) the relationship view, and (iii) the individuals view. In this paper,
I first examine these three views and find fault with each of them as they stand. I then
proceed to propose a complex, yet a more compelling, account of reasons of love that
builds on the individuals vie
Učenje nepoznatog: potencijal liminalnog prostora u obrazovanju odraslih
The following paper is an attempt to speculate about the potential of liminality
for adult learning by relating it to the existing concept of the “pedagogy of the event”
which challenges the imperative for pedagogy to maximize the effects of teaching and
learning by achieving predefined learning outcomes. As opposed to outcome-based education,
“pedagogy of the event” is concerned with the unknown, and learning involves a
move into a new or modified ontological state. Within this paper, a philosophical basis
for the idea of threshold for learning process is outlined and some of the implications
on education are presented. We conclude with the notion that liminality in education,
as understood within the concept of pedagogy of the event, challenges normalizing and
disciplining educational practices by creating radical openness towards the unknown.Autori rada nastoje da razmotre potencijal liminalnosti u sferi obrazovanja odraslih tako što je dovode u vezu sa postojećim konceptom „pedagogije događaja“. Ovaj koncept preispituje pedagoški imperativ postizanja unapred određenih ishoda učenja kako bi se ostvarila najveća delotvornost nastave i učenja. Za razliku od koncepta obrazovanja koje se zasniva na ishodima, „pedagogija događaja“ nastoji da prodre u nepoznato, a sam proces učenja podrazumeva iskorak u novo ili izmenjeno ontološko stanje. U ovom radu smo predstavili filozofsku osnovu za ideju granica procesa učenja, kao i određene implikacije po obrazovanje. U zaključku iznosimo stav da liminalnost u obrazovanju, kada je tumačimo shodno konceptu pedagogije događaja, postavlja izazov pred prakse obrazovanja koje imaju za cilj normalizaciju i disciplinu tako što stvara prostor za radikalnu otvorenost prema nepoznatom
Tajna Dorotejevog kruga iz dečanskog rukopisa broj 78: Istorija jedne recepcije
Циљ рада је да пружи могуће тумачење дијаграма круга који прати текст Поуке број 6 Доротеја из Газе чији се словенски препис налази у Дечанском рукопису бр. 78 који је настао у последњој деценији 14. века. Рад смешта настанак овог дијаграма у историјски контекст монашког интересовања за дела Дионисија Ареопагита и Максима Исповедника које је владало на Балкану у другој половини 14. века и указује на учесталу праксу исцртавања дијаграма круга у рукописима из 14. и 15. века. Коначно рад објашњава комплексне елементе овог дијаграма не на основу саме 6. Поуке Доротеја из Газе, већ на основу богословске мисли Максима Исповедника, у то време често преписиваног писца
