Ob analizah kreativnih dejavnosti se pogosto pojavljajo problematična opažanja delovnih procesov zaposlenih v teh poklicih. Kreativni delavci so s tega vidika dojeti kot zelo prilagodljivi glede na ...način, kraj in plačilo dela. Zaradi tovrstnih značilnosti, ki jih ne uvrščajo med tradicionalne, tj. gospodarsko in socialno bolj stabilne oblike zaposlitve, lahko predvidevamo, da so bili kreativni delavci med najboljprizadetimi zaradi pandemije Covida-19. Članek na podlagi podatkov iz longitudinalne raziskave »Slovenski kulturno-kreativni delavec v času Covida-19« (2020) najprej analizira vplive pandemije na širši kreativni sektor, nato pa prek analize sprememb v delovnem procesu in življenjskih razmerah kreativnih delavcev identificira elemente prekarizacije po posameznih podsektorjih, kot so na primer vizualne, uprizoritvene umetnosti ali glasba. Pri tem ugotavlja, da pandemija v večini segmentov kreativnih poklicev nadgrajuje obstoječe oblikeprekarizacije.
The article explores the significance held by political myths for legitimacy and politics. To that end, we examine political myth in line with the contemporary theory of political myth, which ...understands political myths as an integral part of all political communities that is not inherent to just authoritarian and totalitarian regimes. Every political community has their own stories/narratives that are accepted by most of the population and form the base of the legitimacy of the political order, whether it be a democratic or a non-democratic political order. In the final part of the article, we examine which narratives had such a legitimising power by analysing the political speeches of Franjo Tuđman while he was in office.
Among twentieth-century political philosophers, Americans John Rawls and Robert Nozick are generally recognized as giants - both for the boldness of their arguments and for the influence they have ...exerted. They sketched rival visions. Rawls, inspired by Immanuel Kant, argued for a world characterized by tolerance, equality, and justice as fairness. Nozick, claiming a Lockean heritage but actually inspired by Adam Smith (the "invisible hand") and Herbert Spencer ("survival of the fttest"), out-lined a program for a minimal state, with very little taxation, ofering no cushion at all against poverty, and providing no state assistance for the poor, the sick, the disabled, or the widowed. Rawls' vision is clearly part of the liberal tradition, while Nozick's championing of a minimal state con-tains illiberal elements.
The study focused on investigating and analysing the perception of Facebook's role, as one of the components in the field of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT), namely, social media, on ...the quality of emotional interaction, particularly among individuals in their third age. The research sample comprised 260 participants of various ages, divided into two age groups - under 50 and over 50 years old. Participants' opinions were obtained through empirical research, employing quantitative methods and surveys as the research technique. The research findings indicate that age influences participants' attitudes to digital communication as a means and medium of emotional communication in various contexts. Participants in the third age exhibit stronger reservations towards Facebook as a tool for emotional communication and are more cautious about the use of modern communication methods offered by new social media techniques. They are also less inclined to abandon traditional interpersonal interactions. The results reveal general distrust in the information circulating on Facebook and underscore the advantage of maintaining each interpersonal communication, encompassing all elements of emotional relationships beyond the realm of the Internet, or the information mediation services offered by ICT, primarily social media.
