The subject of this paper is the development of a conceptual design proposal for the official residence for the President of Yugoslavia Josip Broz Tito on the Adriatic coast of Miločer, Budva ...(1975-1980). The research aims to unveil patterns of the regionalist approach within urban and architectural thought in the Socialist Republic of Montenegro (SR Montenegro) through the project of the presidential complex, shown here for the first time since its official presentation to the president himself in 1976. In methodological terms, the paper examines multiple layers of historical background of Miločer that affected the designers' process of thinking, followed by a clear-cut description of the planning procedures, methodologies and reasoning that emerged from the archives and the first-hand witnesses of the whole process. The final results reflect on the critical approach within the practice of the post-war generation of Montenegrin architects, successfully balancing between the poles of power-representation and contemporary architectural currents.
Cretaceous-Paleogene flysch represents the youngest formation in the Budva
Zone. Although the Maastrichtian-Lower Eocene age of these rocks has been
well documented in the literature, trace fossils ...are only mentioned as
abundant and not described. In the present paper, only a small number of
ichnotaxa from Mide locality has been described, including Lorenzinia
carpathica (ZUBER), Nereites irregularis (SCHAFHAUT), Scolicia plana
KSI??KIEWICZ and Paleodictyon latum VIALOV & GOLEV. They confirm deepsea
environment.

Mesozoic to Cenozoic evolution of the central part of the Adriatic plate (External Dinarides and Adriatic foreland) is still a matter of debate. This is expressed by opposing paleogeographic models: ...single carbonate platform (Adriatic or Adriatic–Dinaridic) versus two carbonate platforms (Adriatic and Dinaridic) separated by the inter-platform Budva–Cukali basin. Estimates of shortening during Adria NE subduction, that resulted in the development of the Dinaric Alps, differ substantially. The single-platform model involves minor shortening achieved by folding and faulting along steep reverse faults. The two-platform model involves significant shortening achieved mainly by thrust stacking, which resulted in almost complete underthrusting of the intervening basinal deposits.
Analysis of Upper Cretaceous to Paleogene stratigraphical data from both outcrops and boreholes allows regional correlation and the interpretation of major lithostratigraphic units. As a result, a few tectonostratigraphic units are recognized. The tectonostratigraphy is used as a basis for a new model on the late Mesozoic to Cenozoic evolution of the region.
Generally, Adriatic and Dinaridic segments acted as major regional crustal entities of Adria. The upper portions of the sedimentary cover were differentially affected by progressive, southwestward verging thin-skinned deformations during the Paleocene to Eocene (Miocene?). The Adriatic foreland stayed out of the deformations, and is characterized predominantly by wrench and salt tectonics. The regional tectonic map shows arcuate thrust fronts of the External Dinarides. They could be a consequence of both, differential propagation of early-orogenic thin-skinned deformations over crustal fragments separated by transversal faults, and/or differential (isostatic?) movements of the fragments. The collision zone of the Adriatic and Dinaridic segments is characterized by late-orogenic (Oligocene to Miocene) thick-skinned compressional uplift (exhumation), related gravity gliding, and still active escape tectonics (wrenching). These processes masked primary thin-skinned deformations. A significant amount of shortening within and between the thin-skinned sedimentary covers is proposed. Therefore, the question of the general paleogeography of the region and the original NW extent of the Budva–Cukali basin (NE Adriatic trough) remains open.
The end-Triassic extinction event (∼ 201.5 Ma) is one of the five major mass extinction events in Earth's history, however, considerable discussion continues on the exact causes and timing of the ...event. This is because, whilst certain geochemical data on T-J sections appears to be largely comparable globally, with for example a significant (up to 6‰) negative carbon-isotope (δ13C) excursion at the extinction horizon, more often than not other geochemical variations are neither uniform nor fully consistent between sections. Critical to this discussion is that the majority of the studied sections containing the end-Triassic extinction event are limited to shallow marine or terrestrial sections, which are prone to discontinuities and hiatuses. In this study, we present carbon isotopes (δ13Ccarb), total organic carbon (TOC), major and trace, mercury (Hg) and highly siderophile elements (HSE), osmium-isotope compositions and paleomagnetic data of a relatively less studied deep-marine T-J succession in the Budva Basin, Čanj, Montenegro. At Čanj, deep-marine Triassic limestones are abruptly interrupted by a ∼ 6 cm finely laminated clay layer, before transitioning to more argillaceous Jurassic red beds. The clay layer is interpreted to represent the end-Triassic extinction interval and is characterized by a negative carbon isotope excursion, relative heavy rare earth element (HREE) enrichment, Hg increase, HSE enrichment and a sharp shift to unradiogenic osmium-isotopic ratios. This establishes the Čanj section as a unique and well-preserved outcrop that exquisitely encapsulates the end-Triassic extinction in the Tethyan marine realm. The distinct geochemical markers recorded at Čanj are consistent with the Central Atlantic Magmatic Province as the main driver behind the end-Triassic extinction.

The objective of this research is to evaluate the quality of coffee and coffee service in restaurants in Budva. High quality of coffee and coffee service, especially one that is different from that ...of competitors', can be a significant source of competitive advantage in the restaurant sector. In order to determine the development of coffee consumption, the theoretical part of the research employs the historical method. The research is conducted using a survey in order to gather information on tourists’ attitudes about the quality of coffee and coffee service in the restaurants on Budva Riviera. The collected data indicate the quality of product, process of serving, atmosphere, price, promotional techniques as well as employees' attitude toward consumers. The results show that the quality of coffee correlates with the quality of other elements of service, and that restaurants and coffee shops that serve high quality coffee usually invest in both venue and human resources, which makes them more competitive than their rivals. The results of the research can be useful to other researchers in this field as well as to the restaurants that offer coffee as one of their main products as they can contribute to the improvement of the quality of their service and to a more efficient marketing strategy.

This study elaborates the elements which are important in the development of the smart city strategy, both at national and local level. They should provide a good foundation for the development of a ...longterm sustainable and comprehensive smart city concept. When developing the strategy itself, it is necessary to follow the examples of the smart cities in Europe, Region and based on their experience, to identify advantages and disadvantages in order to form clear goals and vision. This study also gives the proposal for defining the elements necessary for establishing the smart cities development strategy as a solution for improving the quality of life in cities, and therewith overall social and economic sustainable development of a country. Montenegro and the city of Budva have been developed as a case study. Montenegro is keeping pace with technological development and therewith the need to define a development strategy for its smart cities. This study emphasizes the role of state bodies, institutions and citizens themselves in that process.
Avtor analizira povezave med občinama Budva in Dubrovnik od leta 1358 do konca 14. stoletja. Na podlagi neobjavljenih in objavljenih virov iz Državnega arhiva v Dubrovniku (Reformationes, Lettere e ...commissioni di Levante, Diversa Cancellariae, Debita Notariae in Lamenta de foris) ter ustrezne zgodovinske literature, so v kronološkem vrstnem redu predstavljeni politični odnosi med tema dvema dalmatinskima občinama. Pri tem se primerja in analizira vloga zunanjih sil (kneza Vojislava Vojinovića, Kotorja in Benetk), ki so vplivale na zbliževanje in prijateljske odnose med Budvo in mestom. Dubrovčane je Budva zanimala zaradi konflikta s Kotorjem. Pomembno je bilo imeti takega zaveznika, saj je bil ta najbližji vojaškim podvigom proti Kotorju: da ga blokirajo in nadzirajo trgovinski uvoz in izvoz blaga. V zameno so budvanski gospodarji z družino v mestu dobili zatočišče, pomoč z orožjem, hrano, denarjem in darili. Dubrovčani so se izogibali trgovini z občino Budva zaradi njene gospodarske nerazvitosti. Predstavljena je udeležba Budvančanov v gospodarskem življenju srednjeveškega Dubrovnika.
There are various definitions of tourist destination. All of them define tourist destination as an area with specific tourist facilities and attractions, (primary and secondary elements) which ...tourists choose as their journey goal. Budva individually represents the largest tourist destination due to number of arrivals and overnight stays. During its life cycle Budva has gone through different phases as a tourist destination. This thesis implies that it is not enough to use only common quantitative indicator of visitor number to define proper the position of tourist destination and predict further development. This text is based on a comparative analysis of the attitudes of tourists and local stakeholders in the three field researches, conducted in the period between 2015 and 2016. The thesis comes to the conclusion that the actual growth is based on meeting the needs of existing markets and tourists. On the other side, aspect of desired market position disagrees with scores of tourist offer elements- which should be input for improvement and preparation for the next stage in the destination development.
