Research on LGBT perceptions about security sector
This paper presents a survey of LGBT attitudes towards the security sector in Serbia. During the five focus groups with LGBT persons, we determined the basic characteristics of police attitudes towards sexual minorities. By examining the relationship between the police and the sexual minorities, the author attempts to determine the institutional practice towards homosexuality. The study also notes the differences between respondents based on their status and the size of their place of residence. This paper looks at events such as the Pride Parade, which lead to the appearance of anti-gay factions and political conflicts
Sestrinstvo i jedinstvo: (p)jugoslo(a)venski lezbe(i)jski aktivizam
bornik Sestrinstvo i jedinstvo prepliće akademske i aktivističke glasove kako bi osvetlio više od tri decenije lezbejskog aktivizma na (post)jugoslovenskom prostoru. Prilozi bogati empirijskom građom ukazuju na niz lezbejskih inicijativa i važnu – ali retko prepoznatu – ulogu koju su lezbejske aktivistkinje igrale u artikulaciji feminističkog odgovora na uspon nacionalizma, rasprostranjeno nasilje nad ženama, i lezbo/homofobiju u svim postjugoslovenskim državama. Nudeći međugeneracijsku i transnacionalnu perspektivu, ova knjiga ne samo što stavlja u fokus jedan izrazito marginalizovani deo društva, već predstavlja i pionirski napor u dokumentovanju lezbejskog aktivističkog angažmana u (posle)ratnom i (post)socijalističkom okruženju. Kroz mnoštvo autorskih stanovišta, Sestrinstvo i jedinstvo počinje da popunjava prazninu o lezbejskim aktivističkim poduhvatima i lezbejskim životima u literaturi posvećenoj Jugoslaviji i njenom tragičnom raspadu
Istraživanja o seksualnosti i intimnim odnosima: osvrt na period pre i tokom pandemije kovida 19
Ideja rada je da predstavi neke metodološke izazove u pogledu istraživanja
o seksualnosti i intimnim odnosima, te da ukaže na pojedine olakšice u
kontekstu tih istraživanja tokom pandemije kovida 19. Seksualnost i intimni odnosi
nalaze se u kategoriji vrlo delikatnih tema, imajući u vidu da se odnose na
pitanja duboke privatnosti, pa sama sociološka i psihološka istraživanja intimnih
praksi sa sobom nose izvestan metodološki napor. Takođe, prilikom sagledavanja
poteškoća i izazova pred kojima se nalaze istraživački timovi u ovom polju, treba
imati na umu da je naučno ispitivanje seksualnosti uvek pitanje društvenog konteksta,
te da se društvena realnost oštro prelama na domen istraživanja o seksualnosti
i intimnih praksi. To se ogleda kako u postojanju institucionalnog okvira za
istraživanje ovih tema, odnosno njegovom odsustvu, tako i u definisanju konkretnih
istraživačkih problema. Namera ovog rada je da u različitim kontekstima problematizuje
metodološki segment istraživanja intimnih praksi, referišući na kvalitativna
istraživanja metodom dubinskih intervjua, koje je autorka rada sprovela
pre i tokom perioda pandemije kovida 19. Na taj način biće moguće uporediti
istraživačko iskustvo stečeno u okolnostima istraživanja licem u lice na ovu temu
s iskustvom u izmenjenoj istraživačkoj situaciji, u kojoj je metodom istraživanja
ovladao onlajn format. U tom svetlu, skrenuće se pažnja na pogodnosti onlajn
forme za istraživanja intimnih praksi u cilju ukazivanja na potencijal onlajn istraživanja
za prevazilaženje određenih barijera koje se javljaju prilikom istraživanja
licem u lice ovih i srodnih tema
Participacija žena u institucijama - feminizacija prostora političke moći
U tekstu se prvenstveno pošlo od shvatanja da su žene politički relevantna kategorija koju je neophodno uključiti u istraživanje društvenih i političkih procesa, jer, u protivnom, ignorisanje rodne perspektive narušava njihovu epistemološku vrednost i naučni doprinos. Fokus je na participaciji žena u institucionalnoj politici, parlamentu, izvršnoj vlasti i u političkim partijama, posredstvom kojih se žene kandiduju za značajne političke funkcije. Cilj istraživanja je da se prikažu mogućnosti i prepreke učešća žena u formalnoj politici, da se analiziraju način i vrste zastupanja političkih interesa žena, kao i odgovor državnih i društvenih institucija na potrebu žena da podjednako participiraju i budu predstavljene u procesima rukovođenja i odlučivanja
Attitudes and value orientations of high school students in Serbia
The analysis of attitudes and value orientations of high school students comes as the result of research based on data collected during April-June 2011 in six towns in Serbia. The main objective of this research was to detect the dominant attitudes and value orientations of high school students on a scale of traditionalism, homophobia, anti-Romism, ethnic stereotypes and attitudes toward abortion. The research was conducted in the following cities: Belgrade, Krusevac, Novi Sad, Zrenjanin, Nis and Novi Pazar. The results showed that high school students in Serbia in regards to their beliefs do not differ much from the general social climate in which they grew up and were educated in. Traditional respondents are represented at the level of 33.9%; 27.9% of them are moderately traditional and 25% of them are non-traditional. On the one side there are extremely radical position of high school students especially in relation to Roma and LGBT people. On the other side, certain number of respondents howed high affinity and positive individual interprets of the lifestyles of those groups (such as the rights of marriage for homosexual population). Attitudes towards women's rights are also bipolar - high school students have a patriarchal attitude towards marriage, family and abortion, but they show sensitivity to the issue of domestic violence. The obtained data should be interpreted in accordance with the changes in Serbian society - economic crisis, privatization, increase of violence in society and family, redefining of gender roles, etc
Attitudes and experiences of women on abortion (results from the qualitative research from the territory of Belgrade)
This paper presents different views and experiences of women on abortion and contraception, on the basis of data obtained through in-depth interviews, within the project 'Policies of parenting'. The aim of the analysis is to obtain a deeper insight into the meaning that respondents have on abortion and discourse used when talking about this topic. The methodology is qualitative and includes an analysis of in-depth interviews with a sample of 30 respondents from the territory of Belgrade. The results show that respondents generally have, at least nominally, a positive attitude toward abortion and usually argue their positions through the discourse of 'individual decisions', but also 'feminist' discourse and 'anti-nationalist' discourse. Negative views are in the minority and the one that is the most prevalent are religious and discourse of 'naturalization' which includes the belief that motherhood, birth and practices associated with parenting are natural women functions and natural role of women in society. However, the deeper meaning behind the persons' declarative statement is often a mixing of positive and negative discourses, which indicates that respondents have not quite clear and precise views. This, however, should not be surprising, because in addition to the dominant public discourses on abortion which generally are not positive and still pronounced conservatism towards women's sexuality in our society (and the silence on this subject) it is logical that such contextual factors refract on a personal level respondents. In addition to these, the paper discusses the nationalist and anti-nationalist discourses and 'denaturalization'

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The 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
Mental health and older adults in Serbia - support systems during the COVID-19 pandemic
Циљ овог квалитативног истраживања је да испита утицај срединског фактора, мера током пандемије ковида 19 на ментално здравље старијих особа, посматрајући један аспект менталног здравља, а то су системи подршке. У теорији гешталт терапије системи подршке се дефинишу као подршка коју особа има у односу на себе и околину, па можемо говорити о самоподршци (психофизичко здравље особе, доживљај идентитета, унутрашњи систем вредности, свакодневне праксе које пружају осећај континуитета) и подршци из средине (материјална подршка, социјална подршка као што су однос са породицом и социјалне мреже, становање итд.). У овом раду посматрала сам на који начин су мере предузете поводом пандемије утицале на промену система подршке старијих особа, да ли се ранији систем подршке трансформисао и да ли су се појавили нови видови подршке услед прилагођавања ситуацији кризе. У истраживању тог проблема користила сам дубински интервју, примењен на студију случаја две особе са територије Београда.This qualitative research aims to examine the impact of environmental
factors, during the COVID-19 pandemic on the mental health of the older adults,
observing one aspect of mental health – support systems. In the theory of gestalt therapy, support systems are defined through the supports in ourselves and
the environment so that is self-support (psychophysical health, identity, internal value system, daily practices that provide a sense of continuity) and the environmental support (family relationships and social networks, housing, etc.). In this
paper, I observed how measures during the pandemic influenced the change of
the support system of the older adults, whether the previous support system was
transformed and whether new types of support appeared due to adaptation to the
crisis situation. In researching this problem, I used an in-depth interview, applied
to a case study of two people from the Belgrade
