Bavljenje državom staro je koliko i sama država. Njen nastanak, razvoj i ustavno ustrojstvo pokazuju u kojoj meri je državno pitanje važno u teorijskoj misli. U literaturi postoji veliki broj temata ...u kojima se nastoji objasniti suština državnog pitanja, polazeći od pojedinačnih aspekata njenog funkcionisanja. Čini se da ne postoji autor, u pravnoj i politikološkoj teoriji, koji se nije okušao na ovom polju. Tako je bilo i sa gorostasom naše pravne, politikološke, sociološke, književne, istorijske misli Slobodanom Jovanovićem. On je raspravnim stilom studiozno obradio pitanje države, uvažavajući teorijska dostignuća svojih prethodnika i savremenika. Inspirisan idejama francuskih prosvetitelja, o kojima je takođe pisao, Slobodan Jovanović ukazuje na materijalnu i duhovnu dimenziju unutrašnjeg i spoljašnjeg ustrojstva države. Njegovo izuzetno poznavanje društvenih i političkih prilika u zemlji bilo je inspirativno za predlaganje budućih rešenja važnih državnih pitanja. Time je širina i dubina teorijske misli Slobodana Jovanovića veća, jer čitaoci njegovih dela pred sobom imaju vredno štivo koje prevazilazi prostorne i vremenske okvire. On nije pripadao autorima koji važna teorijska pitanja obrađuju olovno teškim perom, već razgovornim stilom koji omogućava upoznavanje materije širem krugu čitalaca. Zato je s punim pravom profesor Stevan Vračar uvrstio Slobodana Jovanovića u red ličnosti, koje čine dragocenu naučnu baštinu srpskog naroda i države.
This paper represents a synthesis of knowledge acquired by the author through studying Dušan’s Code. It analyzes the provisions reflecting the state-forming ambitions of Emperor Dušan. Considering ...the fact that he was aware of the size and strength of his state, which was legally grounded, the Code had to meet the Emperor’s expectations. The critics of his authoritarian rule cannot deny that he had purposefully limited his own (legal) power. Thereby, the legislative technique being used was fully in the spirit of the time and space in which the Code was to be applied. Therefore, it is the author’s intention to point out the provisions of Dušan’s Code in which the original sources of Serbian statehood could be traced back. The issue of originality of Dušan’s Code will be discussed contextually regarding the content of certain regulations. This is hindered by the fact that Dušan’s Code was transcribed over twenty times, and the contents of those transcriptions were not fully identical. Therefore, the originality of the provisions in Dušan’s Code should also be evaluated in relation to its previous legal monuments.
The work is a synthesis of three important aspects in the approach to the environment, on the basis of which it is possible to meet its normative definition and understanding of the situation in ...practice. Given this basis it is possible to separate international, general and criminal legal area of its normative regulation. Each of these aspects is equally important in getting to know the area of the environment in our country. Hence, it is used in expanding the methodological approach which comprises a number of methods (legal, social, statistically, systematically et al.). In addition to the theoretical part of the work an important aspect is the research pertinent to scope and dynamics of criminal acts against the environment in the country. The results are tabulated on the basis of which conclusions are derived as well as suggestions de le ferenda. Timeframe of the research covers the period 2011-2015. year and is based on information contained in the bulletins RSO. We believe that the five-year period in determining the oscillating trends in the field of criminal law protection of the environment provides sufficient referral. In the final part of the paper, a detailed analysis of material is presented as well as a critical review of the presence of inconsistency between the normative and the real situation in the field of environmental protection.
Apparent joinder of criminal offenses is a legal institute which deviates from the actual or real joinder. It deals with legal situations where one or more criminal acts constitute the substance of ...several criminal offenses but, for legal and technical reasons, only one criminal offense is considered to have been committed. Following the division of a joinder into ideal and real, where one or several acts of criminal offenses have been taken as a criterion, the apparent joinder is also divided into ideal and real. This practically means that the offender had committed one criminal offense with one criminal act (an apparent ideal joinder) or several acts (an apparent real joinder), regardless whether his/her act or acts constitute the substance of several criminal offenses. Considering the fact that a legal institution of apparent joinder includes an entire catalogue of various legal situations, our legislator stipulates several forms of the apparent ideal as well as the apparent real joinder. They contain modalities of actions constituting the substance of several various criminal offenses. In a criminal theory, the issue of the apparent ideal joinder has occupied the attention of a large number of authors. They have shown an interest in expanding the catalogue of legally defined forms of the apparent joinder of criminal offenses. As a consequence, we have a significantly higher number of forms of the apparent joinder in comparison with the legal framework being used to regulate this institution in our criminal legislature. Therefore, apart from a legal designation, it is necessary to indicate a theoretical designation of both the apparent ideal and apparent real joinders of criminal offenses.
The need for punishment of juveniles occurred from the time when there was no clear line separating them from the adult criminal population. At the same time, the evolution of the juvenile punishment ...is not in itself involve substantial changes to their criminal status. On the contrary, the status of minors in society did not show serious differences regarding the status of young adults, as well as the adult elderly. On the other hand, on the ground of their punishment is recorded deviations that go in the direction of application of mild corporal punishment. Closing the minor was performed in a physically separate parts of the general penal institutions with the use of a lower degree of restrictions while serving juvenile prison. Due to the different treatment of minors during the evolution of their criminal status leads to their different treatment in comparative law. That is why we are witnessing the existence of numerous differences in the juvenile punishment in some countries in the world. On the European continent there is a wide range of different legal solutions when it comes to punishing juveniles. There are considerable differences in the procedure pronouncing juvenile prison and in particular penal treatment of juveniles in penitentiary institutions. For these reasons, the author has decided to show the basic statutory provisions in the part that relates to the issue of punishment of minors in the legislation of individual countries.
The paper presents the institution of mistake (error) in our criminal law, focusing on its legal regulation as a ground for exculpation. The fact that mistake is a psychological and legal concept ...whose meaning includes several substantial elements is acknowledged. The legal relevance of mistake contributes to its various treatment in legislation. Given that criminal law, as a branch of legislation, deeply engages with human rights, mistake becomes a crucial institution for excluding the guilt of a perpetrator. Depending on the type of mistake, and the legal and situational circumstances in which it is considered, two main categories can be recognized: mistake of fact (error facti) and mistake of law (error iuris). Their effect must be evaluated in the contest of a specific criminal case. This paper will elucidate the general term and types of mistakes, exploring their effects on the culpability of the perpetrator of the criminal act.
A family represents the basic unit of the society. It has a crucial influence on developing both positive and negative tendencies in the young population. A social role of a family comprises the ...active relationship of its senior members, especially the parents, in the process of socialization of the youngs – children and minors. In a process of resocialization, a proper positioning of family members represents the highest achievement in the realization of its social role. In such a way, a family gives an active contribution to affirming the positive social values. However, the expected social role of the family is often being corrupted by the deviant and criminal behavior of its junior members. Thus, this is a clear signal that the socialization was unsuccessful. The reasons may be found in its partial or complete deficiency. When a family fails to complete its role, then we have on the scene the members of the young population who do not comply with moral and legal norms. Consequently, they must be subjected to a process of resocialization. This process includes various subjects: the court, social welfare center, local community, school, family and the offender him/herself. They jointly participate in a resocialization process as a form of rehabilitation. Although in this process the family role is being realized within the legal frames (issued sentences or decisions), it is undisputable that it plays the important role. Hence, we find necessary to point out the specific role of the family as a factor in the socialization and resocialization process.
U svakom društvu postoje pojedinci ili organizovane grupe koje otvoreno ili prikriveno krše društvene norme kojima se unapred propisuju obrasci ponašanja. Opasnost od ovakvih postupaka ogleda se u ...prisustvu negativnih tendencija na polju dalje društvene dezorganizacije. Poznato je da se neretko za kriminalitet maloletnika sazna tek onda kada je neophodno primeniti represivnije sankcije koje sadrže brojna ograničenja. S obzirom na činjenicu da je kazna dominirala kao krivična sankcija reakcija društva na kriminalitet mladih bila je isključivo punitivnog karaktera. Otuda se na maloletnike primenjuju istovrsne kazne uz određena ograničenja koja se tiču blažeg kažnjavanja i znatno liberalnijeg režima izvršenja kazne zatvora. U takvoj situaciji društvo nije ostvarilo ozbiljniji uticaj na poboljšanje statusa maloletnika i njihovu punu integraciju u svoje tokove. Dalji razvoj društvene i pravne svesti uticao je na pronalaženje novih formi ne/penalnog reagovanja. U tom pogledu, diverzione mere predstavljaju prvi i pravi korak na putu popravljanja maloletnih delinkvenata za konkretno učinjena krivična dela uz ispunjenje određenih uslova. U sklopu opštih tendencija usaglašavanja unutrašnjeg sa uporednim zakonodavstvom i međunarodnim i regionalnim, pretežno evropskim instrumentima, države ex Jugoslavije ugradile su u svoja zakonodavstva mogućnost izricanja diverzionih mera. Vodeći računa o planiranom obimu rada autori su odabrali Hrvatsku i Srbiju koje su svaka na svoj način, najpre propisale, a onda uz velike poteškoće otpočele sa sporadičnom primenom diverzionih mera.
In every society there are individuals or organized groups who openly or covertly violate social norms that prescribe what behavior patterns. The danger of such actions is reflected in the presence of negative tendencies in the field of further social disorganization. It is known that often the criminality of juveniles become known only when it is necessary to apply repressive sanctions that include a number of limitations. Given the fact that the sentence was dominated as a criminal sanction social reaction to crime youth was purely punitive character. There for, the same types of punsihment are applied on juveniles with certain restrictions relating to the lenient punishment and much more liberal regime of imprisonment. In such a situation society failed to achieve a more serious influence on the improvement of the status of minors and their full integration into their courses. Further development of the social and legal awareness contributed to the discovery of new forms of no / penal response. In this regard, diversion measures represent the first and right step on the road to improving juvenile offenders committed offenses in particular the fulfillment of certain conditions. The overall trends of harmonization of domestic legislation with comparative and international and regional, mostly European instruments, countries of ex-Yugoslavia incorporated in their legislation for the imposition of diversionary measures. Taking into account the planned scope of work the authors have chosen Croatia and Serbia, which are each in their own way, first spelled out, and then with great difficulty started with sporadic use of diversionary measures.
Predmet ovoga rada jeste Francuska buržoaska revolucija u naučnoj vizuri Slobodana Jovanovića. Istorijski kontekst u kome se odigrala, ličnosti koje su njome upravljale i politički dometi revolucije ...probudili su naučnu radoznalost većeg broja autora. U srpskom podneblju je važnu ulogu u prikazu Francuske buržoaske revolucije imao Slobodan Jovanović. Njegovu naučnu misao i intelektualne domete možemo prepoznati u većem broju naslova iz pravne i politikološke teorije. Važan naslov u naučnom opusu ovog autora pripada vođima Francuske revolucije. Oni su prikazani na sredokraći mita i realnosti, uz primetnu dozu subjektivnosti koja prožima ovo delo. Cilj rada se ogleda u originalnom prikazu i analizi stavova i mišljenja Slobodana Jovanovića o Francuskoj buržoaskoj revoluciji. U članku će biti obuhvaćena i šira Jovanovićeva teorijska misao, iskazana u njegovom obimnom naučnom opusu. U radu će biti korišćen širi metodološki okvir, kog čini više metoda: analitički, sintetički, induktivni, deduktivni, istorijski. Integralnim pristupom biće usklađeni rezultati korišćenja pojedinačnih metoda. Rezultati rada se sastoje u naučnom pristupu političkoj misli Slobodan Jovanovića u kontekstu njegovog bavljenja Francuskom buržoaskom revolucijom. Važan segment u radu pripada kritičkom osvrtu autora na pokušaje idealizovanja i prenaglašavanja uloge njenih vođa.
Dealing with the state is as old as the state itself. Its origin, development and constitutional structure show the extent to which the state issue is important in theoretical thought. There are a ...large number of topics in the literature that try to explain the essence of the state issue, starting from individual aspects of its functioning. There does not seem to be an author, in legal and political theory, who has not tried to make a go in this field. The giant of our legal, political, sociological, literary, historical thought, Slobodan Jovanović made the same attempt. He meticulously dealt with the issue of the state in a deliberative style, respecting the theoretical achievements of his predecessors and contemporaries. Inspired by the ideas of the French educators, about whom he also wrote, Slobodan Jovanović pointed to the material and spiritual dimension of the internal and external structure of the state. His exceptional knowledge of the social and political circumstances in the country inspired the propositions of future solutions to important state issues. Thus, the breadth and depth of Slobodan Jovanović’s theoretical thought is greater, because the readers of his works are offered valuable reading that transcends spatial and temporal frameworks. He did not belong to the authors who dealt with important theoretical issues with a lead-heavy pen, but with a conversational style that enables a wider circle of readers to get to know the matter. That is why Professor Stevan Vračar rightly included Slobodan Jovanović in the ranks of personalities who make up the valuable scientific heritage of the Serbian people and state.
