In early 1992, there was a conflict between Knin and Belgrade over the acceptance of the Vance plan. The conflict also affected relations on the political scene of the Republic of Serbian Krajina. ...There was a split into two factions. One was headed by President Milan Babić, who was against the Vance plan, and the other was Parliament Speaker Mile Paspalj, who under pressure from Belgrade accepted the plan. In those conflicts, there was a parallelism of power, so during February, March, and April of 1992, the Krajina had two govern-ments. The focus of this paper is on the parallel government whose first minister was Risto Matković. His government was loyal to Milan Babić and had no sig-nificant support outside Knin. It held only three sessions and tried to counter the Government of Zdravko Zečević, which had the support of the Parliament of the Republic of Serbian Krajina and of official Belgrade, which was a crucial moment in the exercise of political power in the Krajina throughout its existence. The paper is based on unreleased archival materials, published documents, press, memoirs, and professional literature.
V članku avtorja proučujeta, kako spremenjena podoba ulice po prenovi vpliva na dojemanje ulice, njeno senzorično krajino in vzdušje na njej. Na primeru Tumske ulice, glavne ulice v srednje velikem ...poljskem mestu Plock, dokažeta, da imajo lahko tovrstne spremembe nepričakovane posledice, ki pri prebivalcih vzbujajo negativne občutke. Izsledki raziskave, ki je temeljila na mnenju članov fokusnih skupin, kažejo, da trenutno vzdušje na Tumski ulici povzroča negativne zaznave, ki se nanašajo na štiri vrste senzoričnega zaznavanja oziroma značilnosti krajine: : tipne, vidne, slušne in vohalne. Negativna občutja so še močnejša pri posameznikih, ki imajo pozitivne spomine na nekdanjo ulico – na njeno stanje pred prenovo. Zaradi negativnega vzdušja na Tumski ulici in neprijetnih občutij, ki jih vzbuja, so se ulične aktivnosti prebivalcev zmanjšale na najnujnejše opravke. Navedeni izsledki kažejo, da bi se morali pri oblikovanju ali preoblikovanju javnih prostorov vedno upoštevati vplivi na ulično vzdušje in potreba po ustvarjanju pozitivnih občutij.
Članek obravnava vprašanja o nosilni sposobnosti prostora za sprostitev in rekreacijo v obmestnih krajinah visokih naravnih ali kulturnih vrednot. Temelji na konceptu pristopov od spodaj navzgor, pri ...čemer uporablja metodo opazovanja in vedenjskih zemljevidov, ki temelji na drobnih kvalitativnih podatkih. Osredotoča se na zasnovo koncepta nosilne sposobnosti naravno vrednega obmocja za rabo in na ugotavljanje ocene nosilne sposobnosti takega območja za rabo. Izhajali smo iz Goličnik Marušic (2015), ki nakazuje smisel obravnave razvoja in načrtovanja zelene infrastrukture z vidika uporabnikovih potreb in navad ter s konceptom nosilne sposobnosti prostora za zasedbo vključili tudi varstveni vidik. Na podlagi izvedenih podatkov, pridobljenih z opazovanjem in kartiranjem vedenja, smo komentirali dejansko rabo, uporabnike z vidika starostnih skupin ter način zasedanja prostora, pogostost pojavljanja dejavnosti in načine zadrževanja v prostoru na primeru Jezera pri Podpeči, priljubljene izletniško-rekreacijske tocke na robu Ljubljanskega barja.
By referring to original documents of the military and civilian institutions of the rebel Serbs as well as those of the Yugoslav People’s Army, this paper outlines the state and the activity of the ...aggressor forces in the occupied area of the Glina and Petrinja Districts, where Operation Whirlwind was carried out in December 1991. The military activities of the Croatian forces in this part of the Pokuplje region that preceded the operation are also described. A thorough insight into the preparation and course of the enemy counterattack in Operation Whirlwind is given, with a comparison of losses on both belligerent sides. Considering everything stated, the aggressor’s superiority in artillery and armour is obvious, as is the contribution of the Yugoslav People’s Army in carrying out the counterattack.
Članak daje pregled arhivskih fondova i zbirki nastalih radom paradržavnih civilnih i vojnih ustanova (i postrojbi) pobunjenih Srba na okupiranom području Republike Hrvatske: skupštine i vlade ...Republike Srpske Krajine, pripadajućih ministarstava, pravosudnih i upravnih tijela na lokalnoj razini, političkih stranaka i udruga, te zonskih štabova i njihovih sljednika, korpusā Srpske vojske Krajine. Prikazano je i gradivo nastalo radom Jugoslavenske narodne armije, pohranjeno u Centru, koja je u vremenu svoje transformacije prešla i u Vojsku Republike Srpske Krajine, kao i u Vojsku Republike Srpske. Oblikovani arhivski fondovi i zbirke većim dijelom pripadaju cjelini arhivskog gradiva Republike Srpske Krajine (Srpske Autonomne Oblasti Krajine), prikupljenog nakon oslobodilačkih vojno-redarstvenih operacija Bljesak i Oluja.
This article provides an overview of archival holdings and collections of the civic and military institutions of the para-state of the rebel Serbs in the Republic of Croatia in the period from 1990 to 1995, that is to say the archival records set up in the occupied territory of the Republic of Croatia as well as those of the JNA (Yugoslav People’s Army). At issue are the materials that were the result of the work of the “Republic of Serbian Krajina”, of its parliament, government, ministries, judicial authorities and governing bodies at the local level
as well as that of the political parties and associations, the corps of
the Serbian Army of Krajina and its predecessors (zone headquarters). In other words, on the basis of stored archival materials, a review of the activities of the JNA, of its transformation and role during the aggression against Croatia is provided. The contents of the archival holdings of the institutions of the “Republic of Serbian Krajina” indicate the intention of their creators and their focus on the partition of the territory of the Republic of Croatia and annexing a part to the Republic of Serbia and Yugoslavia. The materials were collected after the military-police liberating operations Bljesak and Oluja, and then transferred to the Croatian State Archive and at the end
of 2005 to the Croatian Memorial-Documentation Centre of the Homeland War.

Abstract
Agriculture has a great impact on biodiversity in Europe. Populations of farmland birds are declining due to both intensification and abandonment of agriculture. The purpose of this study ...was to determine the effects of overgrowing on the diversity of birds at Cerknica Polje. Six vegetation types were identified on eight survey plots (15.2-31.6 ha each): Short grass - regularly mown wet meadows; Tall herbs - stands of Common Reed Phragmites australis and Reed Canary Grass Phalaris arundinacea; Sparse bushes - stands of low woody plants; Dense bushes - dense stands of bushes; Meadows with trees - mown meadows with scattered trees; Bushes with trees - hedges, trees and dense stands of bushes. In total, 34 species were registered. The heterogeneity of vegetation types correlated positively with the heterogeneity of bird species. The highest density of breeding territories and species was established in Bushes with trees, the lowest in Short grass. No species were registered in all vegetation types, and only Tree Pipit was recorded in five out of six types. Twelve species were registered in only one vegetation type. Cerknica Polje is an important breeding locality for species with the highest breeding density at the national level (e.g. Corncrake Crex crex, Curlew Numenius arquata, Skylark Alauda arvensis, Whinchat Saxicola rubetra, Sedge Warbler Acrocephalus schoenobaenus). These species breed in specific habitats with different stages of succession. A managing plan for the area should therefore combine abandoned plots in different stages of succession and large regularly mown areas. Abandonment of agriculture at Cerknica Polje has led to the emergence of areas with bushes in different succession stages. Efforts should be directed at preserving large complexes of mown wet meadows.

It is provided in the context of investigation and interpretation of ...various types of historical and modern, cultural and natural small-scale relief features and landscape structures. It also provides concise guidance for selecting the best techniques when looking at a specific type of landscape and/or looking for particular kinds of forms.The three main sections – descriptions of visualization techniques, guidance for selection of the techniques, and visualization tools – accompany examples of visualizations, exemplar archaeological and geomorphological case studies, a glossary of terms, and a list of references and recommendations for further reading. The structure facilitates people of different academic background and level of expertise to understand different visualizations, how to read them, how to manipulate the settings in a calculation, and choose the best suited for the purpose of the intended investigation.A smaller amount of books is also available in hardcover (ISBN 978-961-05-0011-7, 24 EUR).
Shaping the Geographical Imagination of Slovenian Landscapes in EducationThis volume focuses on Slovenian students’ geographical imaginations of Slovenian landscapes and the impact of curricula, ...syllabuses for selected subjects, and textbooks for them. It proceeds from the premise that photographs play an important role in shaping and maintaining individual and collective conceptions of landscapes. The introduction builds a theoretical framew`rk based on the concepts of landscape, geographical imaginations, and visuality. This is followed by a chapter presenting results of an analysis of twenty-five syllabuses for seventeen primary- and secondary-school subjects referring to shaping landscape imaginations. The third chapter brings results of an analysis of 949 photogrῡphs from fifty primary- and secondary-school textbooks. The fourth chapter presents the results of the analysis of questionnaires completed by 722 students and twenty-seven teachers from seventeen Slovenian primary schools and eight secondary schools. The fifth chapter synthesizes all of the findings.
Article presents the review of the theoretical framework for a specific question that arose from the use of the scenario technique in the field of landscape planning. This specific issue is: does the ...use of scenarios influence the perception of the cultural landscape changes and actions the individuals take to change the cultural landscape? Review includes research articles aiming to approve the influence of scenarios and also case studies of scenario use in the field of landscape planning that perceived possible influence of scenario use on stakeholders. The decision for the review was stimulated by the growing popularity of the scenario-based studies connected with landscape planning and environmental issues. Scenarios are also an important incentive for public participation. The question is whether we can influence relations between individuals and cultural landscape by showing them evidently with scenarios, how the future landscape will look like.
Pri vse pogostejši uporabi scenarijev na področju krajinskega in prostorskega planiranja se zastavlja vprašanje, kako scenariji razvoja kulturne krajine vplivajo na dojemanje sprememb kulturne krajine pri deležnikih ter s tem posredno tudi na njihovo delovanje v kulturni krajini. Članek podaja pregled nad posameznimi tujimi raziskavami, ki se vsebinsko navezujejo na vprašanje psihološkega vpliva scenarijev na deležnike, ter primeri uporabe scenarijev v načrtovalskih postopkih, kjer so raziskovalci zasledili relevanten vpliv te metode na deležnike. Uporaba scenarijev v postopkih sodelovanja z javnostjo je zaželena metoda za spodbujanje participacije javnosti, saj scenariji zaradi svoje privlačnosti nemalokrat olajšajo komunikacijo med raziskovalci in javnostjo. Pogosta uporaba scenarijev pri prostorskem planiranju in reševanju okoljskih vprašanj je spodbudila razmislek o tem, da uporaba scenarijev, za prikaz morebitnih prihodnjih sprememb kulturne krajine, vpliva na odnos deležnikov do kulturne krajine.
