Predodžba o mračnome vijeku kao razdoblju znanstvene pustoši koju je prouzročila Katolička crkva uništivši ili zanemarivši bogato antičko znanje što su ga prikupili ponajvećma Grci i Rimljani te ...zapriječivši svaku učenu i racionalnu misao i znanstveno istraživanje još je uvijek utjecajna u široj akademskoj zajednici. Međutim, sve je više studija koje osporavaju vjerodostojnost takve predodžbe. Istraživanje provedeno i predočeno u ovome članku dovodi do sličnih zaključaka. Preispitivanju su podvrgnuti stavovi najistaknutijih kršćanskih autoriteta, počevši od crkvenih otaca pa do renesanse, prema filozofiji i znanosti. Istraživanje je bilo usmjereno i na znanstveni doprinos kršćanskih značajnika. Rezultati su pokazali da su kršćanski autoriteti imali krajnje pozitivno mišljenje kada je riječ o sposobnostima zdravoga razuma za shvaćanje i razumijevanje svijeta, a empirijsko su istraživanje materijalnoga svijeta smatrali nezamjenjivim. To je pak omogućilo velik napredak na svim poljima društvenoga života, čime su udareni temelji suvremene zapadne znanosti i uljudbe.
The notion of the „Dark Ages“, as a period of scientific desolation is still a highly influential paradigm in the academic circles. It is believed that this desolation was caused by the Catholic Church which has destroyed or neglected the rich knowledge from the antiquity, mostly collected by the Greek and the Romans, and that the Catholic Church has hindered every scholarly and rational thought as well as scientific research. However, nowadays there is more and more studies that undermine the credibility of this notion. The research described in this paper leads to similar results. The views of the most prominent Christian authorities, from the Church Fathers till the Renaissance, of philosophy and science, are re-examined. The scientific contribution of the important Christian figures was also researched. The results have shown that Christian authorities had an extremely positive opinion when it comes to the abilities of common sense for comprehension and understanding of the world. They believed that empirical research of the material world was irreplaceable. This has caused huge advancements in all fields of social life, and thus laid the foundations for the modern Western science and civilization.
The paper discusses the explicitly stated understanding of legal science as it appears in compulsory course textbooks on positive law subjects at the Faculty of Law, University of Zagreb. The first ...part of the paper describes the research problem and posits the corresponding hypotheses, states the research aims, describes the method of qualitative content analysis, and elaborates on the content units used (themes, categories and subcategories). The second part establishes the textbooks which contain an explicit determination of a branch of legal science that they belong to, or legal science in general, and the extent to which they contain it. Furthermore, it establishes how the subject matter, objectives and methods of legal science are defined in the textbooks and whether the textbooks include interdisciplinarity as a part of legal research. The third part determines the predominant understanding of the subject matter, objectives and methods of legal science and the predominant understanding of interdisciplinarity of legal research in the analyzed course textbooks. The conclusion contains a discussion of research results, determines the extent to which the hypotheses are confirmed and highlights the possible avenues of further empirical and theoretical research on (Croatian) legal science. The research results demonstrate that the analyzed textbooks mostly contain at least an elementary determination of legal science, but differ greatly with respect to the placement, extent, and way of its elaboration. Furthermore, according to the predominant understanding, the subject matter of legal science are general legal norms. Its objectives are to describe the law, systematize it and to recommend more appropriate legislative solutions and ways of interpreting and applying it, while its methods are the dogmatic method, the comparative method, and the sociological method. Objectives and methods are mostly just mentioned, without being described and explained. Finally, less than a half of the textbooks mention that legal research includes some level of interdisciplinarity, while the predominant understanding is that interdisciplinarity consists primarily in using insights from other scientific disciplines.
Komparativna politika u Hrvatskoj prošla je faze početnog razvoja i institucionalizacije. Od svog osnivanja 1962. Fakultet političkih znanosti u Zagrebu glavna je znanstvena i visokoobrazovna ...institucija za političku znanost u Hrvatskoj te se komparativna politika u hrvatskoj političkoj znanosti primarno razvijala i institucionalizirala na njemu. U prva četiri desetljeća postojanja Fakulteta sporadično su se provodila istraživanja i objavljivali znanstveni radovi o stranim politikama te to razdoblje smatramo fazom početnog razvoja komparativne politike. Osnivanje Odsjeka za komparativnu politiku na Fakultetu 2004. godine označilo je početak sustavnog rada na njezinu daljnjem razvoju kroz znanstvena istraživanja i nastavu na studiju politologije. To je omogućilo institucionalizaciju poddiscipline koju analiziramo uz pomoć teorijskog koncepta Gabrielle Ilonszki s pet značajki institucionalizacije: identitetom, autonomijom, reprodukcijom, legitimnosti i stabilnosti. Na temelju te analize donosimo zaključke o tome kakvo je stanje komparativne politike na Fakultetu političkih znanosti u Zagrebu 2022., 60 godina nakon osnivanja Fakulteta i 18 godina nakon osnivanja Odsjeka.
Comparative politics in Croatia has had two phases of development: initial development and institutionalization. Since its establishment in 1962, the Faculty of Political Sciences in Zagreb has been the main scientific and higher education institution for political science in Croatia, and the development and institutionalization of comparative politics in Croatian political science were primarily carried out there. In the first four decades of the Faculty’s existence, there were sporadic researches and publications of scientific papers on foreign policies, and we consider that period as the phase of the initial development of comparative politics. The establishment of the Department of Comparative Politics at the Faculty in 2004 marked the beginning of the systematic work on further development of comparative politics through scientific research and teaching of this subdiscipline in the study program of political science. This enabled the institutionalization of the subdiscipline, and we analyse it using Gabriela Ilonszki’s theoretical concept with five institutionalization properties: identity, autonomy, reproduction, legitimacy and stability. Based on this analysis, we make conclusions about the state of comparative politics at the Faculty of Political Science in Zagreb in 2022, 60 years after the establishment of the Faculty and 18 years after the establishment of the Department.
This collection provides an in-depth and up-to-date examination of the concept of Intangible Cultural Heritage and the issues surrounding its value to society. Critically engaging with the UNESCO ...2003 Convention for the Safeguarding of the Intangible Cultural Heritage , the book also discusses local-level conceptualizations of living cultural traditions, practices and expressions, and reflects on the efforts that seek to safeguard them. Exploring a global range of case studies, the book considers the diverse perspectives currently involved with intangible cultural heritage and presents a rich picture of the geographic, socioeconomic and political contexts impacting research in this area. With contributions from established and emerging scholars, public servants, professionals, students and community members, this volume is also deeply enhanced by an interdisciplinary approach which draws on the theories and practices of heritage and museum studies, anthropology, folklore studies, ethnomusicology, and the study of cultural policy and related law. The Routledge Companion to Intangible Cultural Heritage undoubtedly broadens the international heritage discourse and is an invaluable learning tool for instructors, students and practitioners in the field.

U ovom se radu istražuje pojam i razvoj astroturizma kao novog oblika održivog i
odgovornog turizma, koji se ubrzano razvija u mnogim zemljama svijeta, s posebnim osvrtom
na certificiranje u ...astroturizmu. U radu su postavljene dvije istraživačke hipoteze. Prva: postoji
uska korelacija između razvoja astroturizma kao novog oblika selektitvnog turizma te jačanja
zaštite od svjetlosnog onečišćenja, pri čemu mračno nebo predstavlja osnovni prirodni preduvjet
za razvoj ovog oblika turizma. Druga: certificiranje u astroturizmu sve se više razvija na
globalnoj i na nacionalnoj razini u nekim zemljama. Ono ima svrhu društvene i marketinške
afirmacije astroturizma, ali i senzibilizacije javnosti za astronomiju i problematiku svjetlosnog
onečišćenja. Obje su hipoteze u radu potvrđene temeljem kvalitativne komparativne analize
triju međunarodnih projekata certifikacije u astroturizmu. U radu je posebno obrađena „Deklaracija
o zaštiti noćnog neba i pravu na svjetlost zvijezda“, tzv. La Palma ili Starlight deklaracija
iz 2007. godine, kojom je „sve započelo“ i koja je prvi put jasno proklamirala pravo na
jasno i mračno, svjetlosno očuvano nebo kao pravo čovječanstva, što je ujedno i godina kada
je prvi put javno deklariran pojam astroturizma. Isto tako u radu se daje osvrt i na korake koji
su poduzeti u Republici Hrvatskoj u tom smjeru, pri čemu se posebno ističe proglašenje dvaju
prirodnih područja u kategoriji Međunarodnog parka tamnoga neba, kao i donošenje pravne
regulative o borbi protiv svjetlosnog onečišćenja. No znanstvenici su dokazali da Hrvatska ima
značajan potencijal za razvoj astroturizma jer njen geografski prostor još uvijek nije u potpunosti
svjetlosno zagađen. Kao znanstveni doprinos rada ističe se doprinos teoretskim okvirima
u području astroturizma, potvrđivanje korelacije između zaštite od svjetlosnog onečišćenja i
razvoja astroturizma te senzibiliziranje znanstvene i opće javnosti za tu problematiku, posebice
za problem svjetlosnog onečišćenja, kao i poticaj za bolju valorizaciju potencijala za razvoj
astroturizma u Republici Hrvatskoj na principima održivog razvoja.
How economics needs to change to keep pace with the twenty-first century and the digital economy Digital technology, big data, big tech, machine learning, and AI are revolutionizing both the tools of ...economics and the phenomena it seeks to measure, understand, and shape. In Cogs and Monsters, Diane Coyle explores the enormous problems—but also opportunities—facing economics today and examines what it must do to help policymakers solve the world's crises, from pandemic recovery and inequality to slow growth and the climate emergency.Mainstream economics, Coyle says, still assumes people are "cogs"—self-interested, calculating, independent agents interacting in defined contexts. But the digital economy is much more characterized by "monsters"—untethered, snowballing, and socially influenced unknowns. What is worse, by treating people as cogs, economics is creating its own monsters, leaving itself without the tools to understand the new problems it faces. In response, Coyle asks whether economic individualism is still valid in the digital economy, whether we need to measure growth and progress in new ways, and whether economics can ever be objective, since it influences what it analyzes. Just as important, the discipline needs to correct its striking lack of diversity and inclusion if it is to be able to offer new solutions to new problems.Filled with original insights, Cogs and Monsters offers a road map for how economics can adapt to the rewiring of society, including by digital technologies, and realize its potential to play a hugely positive role in the twenty-first century.

Giordano Bruno u filozofijskoj tradiciji nije interpretiran jednoznačno. Analiza tih interpretacija pokazuje da je Bruno tumačen kao začetnik nove znanosti ili pak kao mistik, mag, poklonik ...hermetičke tradicije. Sukladno tim dvama pogledima, Brunova ars memoriae bit će tumačena kao obična tehnika pamćenja u službi empirijske znanosti ili pak kao okultna magijska vještina. Cilj je ovoga rada otvoriti puteve koji nadilaze spomenutu striktnu podjelu i kojima se može pristupiti Brunu i poimanju njegove metode. Tijekom razdoblja renesanse, koja predstavlja izniman spoj tradicije i onoga novog, magija i znanost ne isključuju se međusobno; u potrazi za znanjem, svaka metoda nalazi svoje prikladno mjesto. Ars memoriae je univerzalna metoda koja dopušta da se znanje sagleda u svojoj mnogostrukosti. U radu ćemo predstaviti neke od ključnih elemenata Brunove filozofije, ispitujući razna tumačenja i perspektive pokazati zašto je Bruno bio razumijevan na način na koji jest i zašto je neophodno pristupati ars memoriae s nastojanjem objedinjavanja znanstvenih i magijskih elemenata. Mnoštvo je mjesta kod Bruna na kojima znanstveno i magijsko ne samo da su međusobno suprotstavljeni nego, nadograđujući se uzajamno, predstavljaju nerazdvojnu cjelinu unutar koje im je upravo znanje ono zajedničko. Stoga, zadatak nije detaljno analizirati samu ars memoriae¸ nego ispitati moguće pristupe toj metodi, o čemu naposljetku i ovisi razumijevanje samog Bruna.
The relationship of tradition towards Bruno is twofold, and the analysis of this relationship will show that Bruno is interpreted either as a pioneer of new science or as a mystic, mage, and follower of hermetic tradition. Following these two viewpoints, Bruno’s ars memoriae will be interpreted either as a mere memory technique in the service of empirical science or as an occult, magical art. This paper aims to open up and analyse the ways by which we can approach and understand Bruno and his method, that goes beyond the mentioned strict division. In the period of Renaissance, which represents an incredible combination of tradition and the new, magic and science do not exclude one another; in search for knowledge, each method finds its proper place. Ars memoriae is precisely that: a universal method that allows knowledge to be understood in its multiplicity. In this paper, we will present some of the key elements of Bruno’s philosophy, by exploring different interpretations and perspectives, and show why Bruno was understood and interpreted in the way in which he was and why is it necessary to access the ars memoriae by striving to unite scientific and magical elements. In Bruno’s thought there are many places where scientific and magical are not only not opposed to each other, but are complementary, and represent an inseparable whole within which knowledge is commonplace both to former and latter. The task, therefore, is not to analyse ars memoriae in detail, but to examine possible approaches to that method. Understanding of Bruno depends upon understanding his method of ars memoriae.
This paper features an overview of the foundations of transhumanism. The transhumanist movement has existed since the end of the 20th century and espouses the use of technology for enhancing the ...human condition. Due to a certain level of similarity to posthumanism, this overview of transhumanism begins with an analysis of basic terminology: transhumanism, posthumanism, the transhuman being and the posthuman being. After that, transhumanism is studied from the perspectives of different disciplines. These disciplines are: philosophy of science, metaphysics, ethics, philosophy of mind, philosophy of religion and political philosophy.
Na temelju kvantitativne analize sadržaja znanstvenih i stručnih časopisa, objavljenih poglavito na portalu znanstvenih časopisa Republike Hrvatske (Hrčak), autor daje uvid u granu regionalne ...komparativne politike koja se bavi proučavanjem Bliskoga istoka. Utvrdio je kako je objavljeno 75 znanstvenih i stručnih članaka o toj regiji, među kojima je samo 11 članaka o zemljama Sjeverne Afrike. To pokazuje da je ta podregija Bliskoga istoka u hrvatskoj znanstvenoj i stručnoj literaturi vrlo podzastupljena. Nadalje, od 75 članaka, čak su 25 stručni radovi. Najveći broj znanstvenih članaka o Bliskom istoku (13) objavljen je u časopisu Politička misao, dok je u drugima znanstvenim časopisima kojima je izdavač ili suizdavač Fakultet političkih znanosti objavljeno samo pet radova. Naposljetku, kvalitativna analiza članaka u četiri časopisa kojima je izdavač ili suizdavač Fakultet političkih znanosti pokazala je da su komparativne regionalne studije znatno zastupljenije od tradicionalnih regionalnih studija.
Based on a quantitative analysis of content of scientific and professional journals on the central portal of scientific journals in the Republic of Croatia (Hrčak), the author provides insight into a branch of regional comparative politics studying the Middle East. He found that 75 scientific and professional papers on the Middle East have been published, only 11 of which dealing with North African countries. This serves to show that the mentioned sub-region of the Middle East is highly underrepresented in Croatian scientific and professional literature. Furthermore, of the 75 articles on the Middle East, 25 are professional papers. The largest number of scientific papers on the Middle East (13) was published in the Politička misao journal, while only 5 papers were published in other scientific journals whose publisher or co-publisher is the Faculty of Political Science. Finally, qualitative analysis of articles from four journals published or co-published by the Faculty of Political Science has shown that comparative regional studies are far more common than traditional regional ones.
