No full textSlovenia held parliamentary elections on 13 July. Alenka Krašovec and Tim Haughton assess the results of the election, which saw a newly formed party led by Miro Cerar win the largest share of the vote. They write that the key challenge for Cerar will be to retain his new party’s appeal while making the tough decisions necessary to solve the country’s economic problems
Analysis of the indicators of qualitative nonverbal communication at two political leaders (case of dr. Miro Cerar and Marjan Šarec)
Full text linkV diplomski nalogi analiziram izbrane znake neverbalne komunikacije dveh političnih akterjev, nekdanjega predsednika vlade dr. Mira Cerarja in trenutnega predsednika vlade Marjana Šarca na podlagi dveh videoposnetkov iz informativne oddaje Odmevi na nacionalni televiziji. Analizo sem opravila na podlagi sheme neverbalne komunikacije, zastavljene na osnovi teoretičnega pregleda. Glavna ugotovitev, ki izhaja iz analize, je, da se uporaba neverbalne komunikacije med političnima akterjema razlikuje. Neverbalno izražanje je bilo bolj izrazito pri trenutnem predsedniku vlade Marjanu Šarcu.In my thesis I analyse certain signs of nonverbal communication of two political actors, former Prime Minister dr. Miro Cerar and current Prime Minister Marjan Šarec, based on two recordings from a news broadcast called Odmevi, that runs on the national television. The analysis was carried out on the basis of nonverbal communication scheme, which was based on theoretical overview. The main finding from the analysis is, that there is a difference in the usage of nonverbal communication between two political actors. Current Prime Minister Marjan Šarec used more expressive nonverbal communication
ROLE OF PRESIDENT OF THE REPUBLIC IN SLOVENIAN (CONSTITUTIONAL) LEGAL AND POLITICAL SYSTEM
Full text linkSlovenski model političkog sustava, razmatra se u tekstu, podrazumijeva da predsjednik ima samo reprezentativne, inicijativne i protokolarne funkcije. Po Elgijevoj definiciji, Slovenija bi mogla biti
uvrštena gotovo u polupredsjedničke režime, pa stoga valja razmotriti
povijesne, ustavne i političke okolnosti u kojima je nastala i razvijala
se uloga predsjednika republike u slovenskome političkom sustavu.
Nakon podrobne analize političke tradicije i kulture, napose razvoja
ustavne kulture, autor analizira i ustavno-političku praksu kao i rezultate izbora za predsjednika republike, njihovu političku orijentaciju, i razliku između ustavnih ovlaštenja i predsjedničkih performansi.
U zaključku se iznosi ocjena da Slovenija nema moćnog predsjednika
države, nego simboličnoga, unatoč činjenici da se predsjednik bira na neposrednim izborima, pa stoga politički sustav Slovenije valja uvrstiti u kategoriju “parlamentarnog sustava s predsjednikom”.
Pošto je povijest individualnog predsjedništva u Sloveniji još vrlo
kratka, trenutačno je teško ocijeniti sve njegove važne aspekte, a tek
će budući razvoj dovoljno pouzdano pokazati koje su stvarne mogućnosti i ograničenja predsjednika Republike kao pravnog i političkog aktera.The Slovenian model of political system envisages that the president
of the Republic has only representative, initiative and protocolary
functions. According to Elgie’s definition, Slovenia might be categorized as a sort of a semipresidential regime; hence, the historical, constitutional and political circumstances in which the role of the president of the Republic in the Slovenian political system should be looked into. After a careful analysis of the political tradition and culture, and the development of the constitutional culture in particular, the author analyzes the constitutional-political practice and the results of the presidential elections, their political orientation and the difference between the constitutional powers and the presidential performances.
The author concludes that Slovenia does not have a powerful but a symbolic president of the state, despite the fact that the presidents
are elected directly; consequently, the political system of Slovenia
should be classified as a “parliamentary system with a president”.
Since the history of the individual presidency in Slovenia is still very short, for the time being it is very hard to assess all its major aspects; only the future developments will reliably demonstrate the
real competences and the constraints of the president of the Republic
as a legal and political actor
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
Full text link“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Full text linkWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
How Much Law Does the School System Need?
Full text linkIn its ideal form, the law is a guardian of the freedom and autonomy of the school system. On the other hand, the school system must, as part of its responsibility, establish a respectful and responsible attitude toward the rule of law. In Slovenia, practice deviates from such ideal to too great an extent. Excessive and inappropriate legal regulation reduces the freedom and autonomy of the school system. The consequences within this system are: partly ignored legal regulations, and the resulting ineffectiveness; excessive legal administration in schools; increased teachers’ opposition to the law; a lack of teachers’ motivation; and, as a consequence, worsened quality of the educational process. The law, however, is only a part of the problem. The latter has its roots mainly in a general disorientation of society with regard to its values. In order to establish the right measure and manner of the legal regulation of the school system, the moral and common sense basis of society must first be healed and strengthened
Koliko prava potrebuje šolstvo?
Full text linkPravo je v svoji idealni podobi varuh svobode in avtonomije šolstva, šolstvo pa mora kot del svoje odgovornosti sprejeti tudi spoštljiv in odgovoren odnos do pravne države. Praksa v Sloveniji pretirano odstopa od takšnega ideala. Preobsežno in neustrezno pravno urejanje zmanjšuje šolsko svobodo in avtonomijo. Posledice v šolskem sistemu so delno ignoriranje predpisov in posledično njihova neučinkovitost, prekomerno pravno administriranje v šolah, povečani odpor učiteljev do prava, njihova demotiviranost ter zato slabša kakovost učnega procesa. Pravo je tu le del problema. Le-ta ima svoje korenine predvsem v splošni vrednostni dezorientiranosti družbe. Za vzpostavitev prave mere in načina pravnega urejanja šolskega sistema je zato treba najprej ozdraviti in učvrstiti moralne in zdravorazumske temelje družbe
