No full textThe Founding of The Young Muslims Organization and Its Split With The Ulema Association El Hidaya in 1943
No full textУ раду се на основу до сада необјављене архивске грађе Удружења Млади муслимани 1939, приватних архива, Државног архива Србије, Војног архива, али и других релевант- них извора, анализира успостављање организације Млади мус- лимани, формиране у Сарајеву пред почетак Другог светског рата. Анализом се показују идентитет и идеационо усмерење организације, као и њен однос према босанскохерцеговачкој улеми, државности Босне и Херцеговине, националној идеји, усташкој идеологији, Комунистичком покрету, и другим идејним струјама присутним у доба настанка организације.The paper analyzes the establishment of the Young Muslims organization, which was formed in Sarajevo at the dawn of World War II, based on previously unpublished archival materials from the association of Young Muslims 1939, private archives, The State Archives of Serbia, Military Archives, and other relevant sources. The analysis shows the identity and ideological direction of the organization as well as its relationship to the Bosnian ulema, the statehood of Bosnia and Herzegovina, the idea of the nation, the Ustasha ideology, the Communist movement, and other ideological currents present in the time when the organization was founded
Enhancing individual resilience through philosophical consultations
No full textResilience is one of the most traditional attributes to mental health that are used both for diagnosis and for the evaluation of success of psychotherapy. In addition, resilience is a traditional measure of personal maturity, where the person’s ability to withstand stress, frustration or less are seen as critical markers of one’s personal maturity. However, in psychotherapy resilience is often seen in a narrow context, without paying sufficient attention to the social and group dynamics that both give rise to resilience and influence it. This paper is about resilience as a valuable concept in steering and controlling the effectiveness of philosophical consultancy on various levels, including individual, group and broader social and policy issues with which philosophical consultancy also ought to concern itself
Transnational Educational Strategies during the Cold War: Students from the Global South in Socialist Yugoslavia, 1961-91.
No full textSocial movements’ trust, distrust, and use of experts’ knowledge
No full textThe topic of trust in experts has been increasingly salient. Especially since the Covid-19
pandemic, experts have become the target of distrust in many countries. We approach
this topic from the point of view of social movements, which have been producers and
advocates but also challengers of scientific and expert knowledge. In this paper, we
explore the dynamic of trust and distrust in scientific and expert knowledge from the
perspective of social movements. We want to understand and show how social
movements perceive scientific and experts’ knowledge and how that perception shapes
their trust in experts and scientists and their interactions. Our comparative analysis is
based on the empirical material obtained from the focus groups composed of two social
movements from Italy and two from Serbia, one socio-economic-oriented and one
environmental social movement per county. We selected these cases for comparison
since Italy has a long tradition of political engagement of social movements, while in
Serbia, grassroots social movements entered the extra-institutional political arena more
recently. Our goal is to scrutinize if older/more recent traditions of political engagement,
on the one side, and/or issues, on the other side, may lead to different attitudes (e.g.
critic, confrontational, supportive) and strategies towards (socially recognized) scientific
knowledge, as well as to different practices of knowledge production

Digitalisation and Intellectual Property Law – Global Challenges and the Prospects of More Inclusive Public Policies
No full textPolazeći kako od postojećih naučnih uvida, analize aktuelnih globalnih
izazova, tako i od potreba društva u Srbiji, ovaj rad je usmeren na
izučavanje mogućnosti promena postojećih javnih politika, koje bi
uvažavale prava intelektualne svojine, očuvale prednosti digitalne
transformacije, a pritom poštovale principe inkluzivnosti i socijalne
pravednosti, kao i slobodu izražavanja i stvaralaštva. Podaci i uvidi
izloženi u okviru sprovedenog istraživanja nedvosmisleno su potvrdili
njegovu osnovnu polaznu pretpostavku: u kontekstu ubrzane digitalizacije,
ekonomski slabiji subjekti lakše odustaju od različitih akata
koji se odnose na sticanje i upravljanje pravima intelektualne svojine.
Drugim rečima, digitalni jaz povećava i jaz kada je u pitanju dostupnost
i, posledično, ekonomska i društvena valorizacija različitih prava
intelektualne svojine. Prevazilaženje ove situacije moguće je samo uz
primenu snopa mera koje bi vodile reformama postojećih javnih politika,
među kojima su: sistemska analiza podataka o zahtevima za zaštitu
različitih prava intelektualne svojine, procena realnih društvenih
i privrednih posledica digitalizacije u ovoj oblasti, veća transparentnost
u radu državnih organa, sistemska i ciljana edukacija i kritičko,
prilagođenije usvajanje pravnih tekovina EU u ovoj oblasti.Starting from the existing scientific insights and taking in consideration both the global challenges and the needs of the Serbian society, this paper examines the possibilities for improvements in the existing public policies that would respect the existing intellectual property rights (IPRs) and upkeep the advantages of digital transformation, but also respect the principles of inclusion and social justice, as well as the need to protect the freedom of expression and creation. All the data and insights collected during the research have confirmed its initial premise: in the context of rapid digitalisation, economically weaker subjects are more inclined to give up taking various steps related to the acquisition and management of IPRs. In other words, the digital gap significantly increases the gap in availability and, consequently, economic and social valorisation of various IPRs. Overcoming of this problem is only possible by applying a bundle of measures that would lead to the reforms of the existing public policies; among all those measures, a particular attention has been paid to the following: the systemic analysis of the data regarding various requests for the protection of different IPRs, the assessment of the main social and economic consequences of digitalisation in this field, an increased transparency in the functioning of governmental bodies, the specialised educational programmes and a more adapted adoption of the European Union’s acquis in this field
Nature and culture revisited: What do neo-Darwinism and developmental systems theory have to say?
No full textU ovom radu bavim se konceptualnim odnosom prirode i kulture u lamarkizmu, darvinizmu, sociobiologiji, neodarvinizmu i teoriji razvojnih sistema. Cilj rada je da ukažem na koji način sociobiologija odstupa od onoga što je o ovom odnosu postulirano u neodarvinizmu. Naime, zahvaljujući Avgustu Vajzmanu i njegovoj teoriji jakog nasleđivanja i Alfredu Kreberu i njegovoj tezi o kulturnom determinizmu, neodarvinizam, za razliku od redukcionizma socibiologije, polazi od jake konceptualne separacije prirode i kulture u kojoj su priroda i kultura dva odvojena uzročna faktora jednako važna za objašnjenje ljudskog ponašanja i ljudske društvenosti. Na kraju, bavim se kritikom Tima Ingolda koja je usmerena prema ovoj oštroj konceptualnoj separaciji i koja dolazi iz pozicije onih koji u evolucionoj biologiji zastupaju teoriju razvojnih sistema.In this paper, I deal with the conceptual relationship between nature and
culture in Lamarckism, Darwinism, sociobiology, neo-Darwinism, and developmental
systems theory. The aim of the paper is to show how sociobiology deviates from what is
postulated about this relationship in neo-Darwinism. Namely, thanks to August Weismann’s
theory of hard inheritance and Alfred Kroeber’s cultural determinism, neo-Darwinism,
unlike the reductionism of sociobiology, starts from a strong conceptual separation
of nature and culture in which nature and culture are two separate causal factors
equally important for explaining human behavior and human sociability. Finally, I deal
with Tim Ingold’s critique of this sharp conceptual separation, which comes from the
position of developmental systems theorists in evolutionary biology
