Migration as a Political and Public Phenomenon: The Case of Hungary

Migration as a Political and Public Phenomenon: The Case of Hungary

Author(s): Sándor Gallai,Dániel Horváth,Hanga Horváth-Sántha / Language(s): English / Publication Year: 0

Keywords: migration; Hungary

Hungary demonstrates a relatively high level of ethnic and particularly high level of cultural homogeneity. Nevertheless, due to its geographical position, Hungary has played the role both as transit and source as well as destination country for both regular and irregular migration during the past decades. In the context of the recent large-scale irregular migration towards (Western) Europe, however, Hungary has rather been a transit country, experiencing serious pressure at its southern border urging the government to take firm action. As mem-ber of the European Union since 2004 and of the Schengen Treaty since 2007, a part of Hungary’s border forms the external borders of the European Union.

History of research in Gvardjilas Klde cave in Georgia

Historia badań w jaskini Gvardjilas Klde w Gruzji

Author(s): Małgorzata Kot / Language(s): English,Russian,Polish,Georgian / Publication Year: 0

Keywords: Stefan Krukowski; Georgia; Gvardjilas Klde Cave; archaeology; Paleolithic

Critical edition of the unpublished text of Stefan Krukowski, one of the fathers of Polish archaeology, regarding his research on the cave site in Georgia in 1916. The book, edited in Russian, Polish, Georgian and English, consists of the introductory part (consisting Krukowski’s biography, history of research in the site under discussion and of the research on the Paleolithic in Georgia in general), of the text of Krukowski and accompanying illustrations, as well as of the separate modern tables with drawings and photos of the artifacts. Stefan Krukowski, born in 1890, a loner who never completed secondary school or went to university, a Polish rescarcher of the Palaeolithic, founder of a research school, an inspiring teacher of many Polish prehistorians, arrived in Georgia in May of 1916. He explored caves and rock shelters for two years in the foothills. The monograph on the Gvardjilas Klde Cave was written over 1000 years ago, yet the analyses it contains might just as well have been written by a contemporary archaeologist. The history of European archaeology might have taken a completely different path in this publication had been published in 1918, as Stefan Krukowski had planned.

The purpose of the document is to develop an independent analysis of the policies and reforms implemented by the Chisinau authorities in order to bring them closer to the European Union, politically, economically and institutionally. In particular, the European Union - Republic of Moldova Action Plan (EUMAP) was monitored, which is the most important and exhaustive strategic planning document where all of Moldova's commitments in the European integration process are specified. Although the formal implementation period is 2005-2012, it has been automatically extended for an indefinite period. Moreover, the EUMAP remained current, given that the vast majority of the necessary priorities and actions specified in the plan are still relevant today.

Both the Government and citizens are concerned and interested in the climate change issue. The Governmentis already pursuing several strategies to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, thus allowing the Human DevelopmentReport to focus on identifying key gaps and to provide specific recommendations on “climate-proofing”human development strategies. In addition, the Report can help to address public concerns: in a recent survey, 8 out of 10 Croatians felt that climate change was really happening, and of that group, 4 out of 10 thought itworse than experts were saying. // While this Report is not meant to be a comprehensive overview of all aspects of climate change, it does reflectthe breadth and depth of research that has been done in many sectors to date, and it provides a link between aglobal phenomenon and the everyday human development issues facing Croatia. The research and analysis in thisHuman Development Report indicates that, while climate change is likely to pose serious threats to human developmentin Croatia, it also has the potential to bring several beneficial opportunities. The “climate for change” thatcurrently exists in Croatia will provide the country with the motivation it needs to rise to the challenge.

UNDP - HUMAN DEVELOPMENT REPORT 2010 & 2011 – ESTONIA. Baltic Way(s) of Human Development: Twenty Years On

Author(s): Author Not Specified / Language(s): English

In this year’s Human Development Report, entitled “Baltic Way(s) of Human Development Twenty Years On”, distinguished social scientists from the three Baltic countries have analyzed our twenty-year journey. They have highlighted the similarities and parallels but, being serious scientists, have focused primarily on the areas in which the countries have searched for and found original paths. Their analyses provide a valuable and comparative overview of the changes that have occurred in the economic and political coordinate system since the collapse of the so-called Eastern Bloc. // The main objective of this report is not to rank countries, or once again give in to the human urge to prove to our¬selves, and everyone else, that despite all the hardships and naysayers, the three Baltic states have managed to leave behind the burden of the 50-year Soviet occupation and become developed European countries through persistent work and effort. Instead, we should look at the texts as discussions on whether our development model, our way of doing things, is the most effective and could, in the future, be set as an example for other countries and regions that currently, for various reasons, stand on the threshold of major change.

Feudal Society at its Beginnings and at its Apogee

In the years from 1935 to 1960, it was mainly archaeological research that predominated in the studies of the protohistory of the Slavs on the territory of the Czechoslovak Republic, and it was the archaeologists who made the most important contributions to the solution of the various outstanding issues. (See above the report of the archaeological work). On the other hand, given the fragmentary nature of the written sources, the proper historical investigations have been able to make little progress in the exploration of this period. Let us mention at least the article by V. Chaloupecký devoted to Samon1 where the author tried, with more or less success, to bring a new interpretation to the term "negotiator" used by Frédégaire, then a new commented edition by the author, known as a “Bavarian geographer”,2 the articles analyzing the description of Prague by Ibráhím-ibn-Jakúb,3 finally isolated attempts to make use of Hebrew sources that can be used for the study of Czech protohistory.

Fondacija Boris Divković formirana je u ljeto 2013. godine u Sarajevu. Ideja osnivača je da se kroz rad Fondacije što veći broj mladih ljudi, kako u našoj zemlji tako i u regiji, upozna i uči odgovornoj političkoj teoriji i praksi. Iako Fondacija djeluje na socijalno liberalnim polazištima, odlučilo se ovim obrazovnim procesom obuhvatiti i mlade ljude koji su dijelom različitih organizacija, političkih ili nevladinih, drugačijih ubjeđenja, ali i one koji individualno žele unaprijediti svoja znanja o političkoj kulturi. Pitanje sprege morala i politike bilo je od velike važnosti za našeg kolegu Borisa Divkovića i upravo je jedna od prvih značajnijih aktivnosti Fondacije organizacija Akademije političke odgovornosti u kojoj su učestvovali mladi brojnih političkih orijentacija i profila. U novembru 2016. godine održana je treća Akademija političke odgovornosti, a zbog velikog interesa polaznika u maju ove godine organiziran je i njen drugi modul. Teme su obuhvatile: opšti pojam političke kulture, njen razvoj i važnost, dominantnu paradigmu regionalne političke kulture iz perspektive koncepcije svjetskog etosa, religiju kao podcjenjeno mjesto političke socijalizacije. Razgovarali smo o ekonomiji u području politike, kulturi sjećanja. Također, predstavljeni su globalni politički portreti ličnosti poput Vaclava Havela i Wangari Muta Maathai, te regionalni politički portreti kao što su: Zoran Đinđić, Vlado Gotovac, Bogić Bogićević I Boris Divković. Drugi modul išao je detaljno u političko-ekonomske paradigme sa stajališta svjetskog etosa, religiozne socijalne nauke, itd. Posebna pažnja posvećena je ekološkim temama.
