This article gives a brief review of the scientific, academic, and political activity of Josip Šilović, and most importantly of his humanitarian work. He will be remembered for saving thousands of ...children who lost their fathers or brothers to World War I and who were left to starve to death. To this end Šilović and his associates established several funds and organisations, most notably Narodna zaštita. He continued with his humanitarian activities until he died in Zagreb in 1939.
U prilogu se donosi pregled najvažnijih društvenih i političkih okolnosti kroz koje je prolazio hrvatski narod tijekom 20. stoljeća, a zajedno s njim i časopis Život, odnosno Obnovljeni Život. O ...značenju i sadržajima toga časopisa ovdje se ne govori, ali je on i njegova stota obljetnica sastavni dio hrvatske povijesti. Zato su istaknuti u naslovu i njima u čast posvećen je ovaj rad. U ovom radu riječ je o odabiru niza društvenih i političkih okolnosti koje su uzrokovane teškim političkim nepravdama od strane vladajućih režima i struktura moći u kojima se hrvatski narod našao, i to ne svojom voljom. Njihova je bit teško ograničavanje ljudskih prava i sloboda. I u takvim okolnostima hrvatski je narod u osloncu na svoje trajne povijesne i kulturne vrijednosti, među kojima su i katolička vjera i Sveta Stolica, tražio izlaz, koji je, zahvaljujući i promjenama u svijetu, u čijem je žarištu i Drugi vatikanski sabor, i pronalazio. Od tada, i nakon pada Berlinskoga zida, promjene su bile neizbježne. Nažalost, zbog velikosrpske agresije primoran je zakonito se braniti i uz Božju pomoć izvojevati zasluženu pobjedu u Domovinskom ratu (1991.–1995.), te međunarodno priznanje svoje suverenosti i vlastite države — Republike Hrvatske (1992.). Potom i ulazak u NATO i Europsku uniju, u kojoj danas uživa zasluženi ugled. Veliku potporu u tome pružala mu je Sveta Stolica, i osobno sveti otac Ivan Pavao II.

This contribution presents an overview of the most relevant social and political circumstances which the Croatian people underwent in the course of the 20th century and similarly, in conjunction with them, the journal Život, or rather Obnovljeni Život. The significance and content of the journal is not discussed here, however the journal and its hundredth anniversary constitute a part of Croatian history. These are therefore indicated in the title and the article pays tribute to them. This paper discusses a series of social and political circumstances, caused by grave political injustices on the part of governing regimes and power structures, which were the plight of the Croatian people but did not reflect the people’s will. The essence of the injustice was the severe limitation on human rights and freedoms. Even in these circumstances the Croatian people sought a solution in the underpinnings
of the enduring historical and cultural values of the nation which include the Catholic faith and the Holy See and which, owing to the changes in the world at the core of which was the Second Vatican Council, did in fact provide a solution. Since then, and after the fall of the Berlin Wall, change was inevitable. Greater Serbian aggression compelled the nation to lawfully defend itself and, with the help of God, gained a merited victory in the Homeland War (1991–1995) and also attained international recognition of its sovereignty as well as of its proper state — the Republic of Croatia (1992). This was followed by entry into NATO and the European Union within which Croatia is worthily esteemed. The Holy See gave Croatia immense support during the entire process, particularly the Holy Father John Paul II.
Pod središnjim institucijama podrazumijevamo zakonodavne i upravne oblasti, ustanove ili udruženja na području privrednog i kulturnog života, te u znanosti; njihove novine, glasila i publikacije. U ...Zagrebu takove institucije postoje i sa dugogodišnjom tradicijom (Sabor, Kazalište, Akademija znanosti). Takve se institucije osnivaju u Zagrebu za vrijeme hrvatskog narodnog preporoda (1835.-1848.) te u razdoblju daljnjeg procesa modernizacije (1860.-1873.). Istraživanja ovim institucijama usmjerili smo na kulturnu, političku i privrednu djelatnost svih sudionika i članova, te pripadnika različitih društvenih skupina.
The article presents political riots in Croatian in 1903. They were tied to the flagrant disregard of the legal terms of the 1868 Croatian-Hungarian Agreement. The consequences of riots were not ...positive. None of the demands made during the riots was solved and Croat-Serb gained power and it introduced Croat-Serb language well before 1918.
The author discusses various aspects of the historical & political meaning of the geographical term Hrvatsko primorje, or 'Croatian Littoral', as well as its origin.

Archival materials are quoted to correct Slobodan Milosevic's argument, made during the International Court's proceedings in the Hague in 2002, that the Croatian Parliament sanctioned the use of the ...Cyrillic alphabet during its 14 May 1887 session. It is shown that the Parliament of the Kingdom of Croatia, Slovenia, & Dalmatia did not meet that day & no such law was passed. However, a debate on the proposal to allow the use of Cyrillic script in the kingdom's territory was introduced by Dragutin Khuen Hedervary, a governor of Croatia, at the Parliament's session held 19 March 1887. The law, allowing the Serbian population living in the kingdom's territory to use Cyrillic in church & school, was passed later the same month. However, the sovereignty of the Parliament's actions was compromised in that the Kingdom, as a part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, had to follow the laws concerning language rights promulgated in Vienna. Some paragraphs from the law are quoted. Adapted from the source document
