U radu se donosi pregled epidemija kuge u dubrovačkom zaleđu tijekom 17., 18. i 19. stoljeća i njihove refleksije na dubrovačko područje. Na temelju rijetkih i šturih vrela te objavljene literature ...analiziraju se posljedice epidemija u zaleđu i načini kako se tamošnje stanovništvo borilo protiv epidemija kuge. Analizirane su i mjere i načini kako su se Dubrovčani branili od širenja tih epidemija te koje su protuepidemijske mjere poduzimali kako se zaraze ne bi proširile preko granice na njihovo područje. Na primjeru nekoliko slučajeva vidi se što su sve Dubrovčani poduzimali kako bi zarazu zaustavili na granici, s obzirom na to da je ona skoro pa stalno prijetila da se s područja Osmanskog Carstva proširi na područje Republike. U radu je poseban naglasak stavljen na ulogu Zdravstvenog ureda koji je u Dubrovniku osnovan još u 14. stoljeću te revolucionarne protuepidemijske mjere – karantene, kao vrlo učinkovite mjere od širenja epidemija.
Research background:
The results of the researches in the word show that traditional crafts play very important role in presenting the culture and traditions of any country and provide opportunities ...for employment with low capital investments. Dubrovnik traditional crafts have not been touristic valorized as well. That is why is relevant to analyse the role and development possibilites of Dubrovnik traditional crafts from international poin of view.
Purpose of the article:
The aim of the paper was to analyse importance and types of traditional crafts as much as to explore the attitudes of local residents in the area of Dubrovnik towards the possibilities of developing new tourism products forms based on the traditional crafts.
Methods:
For the purpose of the paper the secondary and primary data have been used. The empirical research has been conducted using the structured interview method. The sample has consisted of 48 employees. The respondents were residents, employed by companies in Dubrovnik. The results of primary and secondary researches have been considered together regarding the elements of cultural motivation.
Findings & Value added:
The local residents consider that traditional crafts could be important factor of sustainable development of tourist destinations Dubrovnik.

Dubrovački Srbi katolici na vrhuncu svoje političke moći, početkom 1900-tih, pokušali su srpski identitet ugraditi i u proslave blagdana zaštitnika Dubrovnika, svetog Vlaha. Kronologiju ...hrvatsko-srpskih odnosa i ideološkopolitičke utjecaje na svečanosti dana nebeskog zaštitnika Dubrovnika pratimo od 1892. do 1914. kroz napise u gradskim političkim novinama Crvena Hrvatska (1891-1914) i Dubrovnik (1892-1914), a od 1905. i u pravaškoj Pravoj Crvenoj Hrvatskoj (1905-1918). U ovom radu izdvajaju se dva ključna razdoblja. U onome do 1899, kada je na vlasti bila srpsko-autonomaška koalicija, Srbi Dubrovčani pozivali su se na tradiciju i ostavštinu Dubrovačke Republike, koja je prema njihovoj interpretaciji bila srpska, a slijedom takvih teza pokušali su i Festi sv. Vlaha nametnuti srpski idiom. Drugo razdoblje je od 1905. godine, kada se Hrvati zalažu za slogu sa Srbima u Dalmaciji. Dubrovnik je imao poseban značaj za provedbu novog političkog pravca pa se za vrijeme obilježavanja blagdana sv. Vlaha 1906. na dubrovačkoj Općini, prvi put u povijesti grada, postavlja srpska zastava. Odlukom općinskog vijeća iz 1906. ukida se tradicionalni izbor svjetovnih priređivača Feste svetog Vlaha, čime organizacija pada pod potpunu političku kontrolu.
The recent discourse on overtourism and anti-tourist attitudes has opened up the space to reimagine tourism development and planning. Employing an interdisciplinary approach we combined research by ...design methodology and rapid ethnography in order to problematise Dubrovnik's overtourism. The research turned for inspiration to the ex-Yugoslavian resorts and integrated planning. The paper advocates a praxical, socially informed and environmentally aware perspective and proposes interventions that offer the potential of practical applications in Dubrovnik's urban planning. Focusing on the need for connectivity and continuity the interventions address issues of segregation and marginalisation of local groups, such as students and seasonal workers. Inspired by the utopian ideals of socialist resorts, the research developed an urban armature that aims to connect the different parts of the old and modern city, reclaim tourist spaces for locals, and create open spaces in local areas.
The aim of this paper is to provide an analysis of the reconstruction of Hotel President in Dubrovnik in 2013. The paper is based on student Dean Sošić's Master's thesis titled "Reconstruction of ...Hotel President in Dubrovnik in 2013," successfully defended at the Faculty of Civil Engineering, University of Rijeka, in 2020. The student analyzes Edward Stone Durell's original design from the 1970s and subsequent works on the hotel until 2013 when it was thoroughly reconstructed for the new investor. In addition to a construction analysis, this paper also brings an evaluation of the reconstructed hotel.
Sv. Stjepan prvi je svetac koji se spominje u pisanim povijesnim izvorima o Dubrovniku, tijesno povezan s legendama o osnutku grada. Taj je kult u Dubrovniku promoviran u sklopu papinske politike ...prema gradu i čitavoj regiji, što potvrđuje i legenda o Pavlimiru, osnivaču grada koji je stigao iz Rima i donio relikvije svetaca. Papinsku politiku, odnosno politiku jačanja utjecaja Rima, provodili su biskupi koji su se pritom uvelike oslanjali na kult svetaca. Promoviranjem određenih kultova i nabavkom relikvija najbolje su predstavljali određene političke težnje. Izgradnja identiteta srednjovjekovnog Dubrovnika bila je neodvojiva od vjerskog osjećaja, crkvene pripadnosti i vrijednosti kršćanstva na kojima je komunalna elita gradila svoju etiku i ideologiju. Kult Sv. Stjepana i svečeva crkva, prvi moćnik srednjovjekovnog Dubrovnika, činili su uporište takve politike dubrovačke općine i Crkve, kao i Rimske Crkve.
The year 2017 marks the 350th anniversary of the great 6 April 1667 Dubrovnik earthquake that caused extensive damage in a wide area around this old Dalmatian town (today in Croatia). This article ...presents the effects of the 1667 earthquake and examines the first few weeks following the catastrophe. Macroseismic data are reanalysed, for the first time available data are collected of the damage on the territory of Bosnia and Herzegovina (the territory which was in the 17th century under the Ottoman reign) and a new map of macroseismic intensities is presented. This map is in good agreement with the macroseismic field modelled using the SAF (Strong Attenuation at Fault Zones) model. We highlight some problems in the collection of macroseismic information, which are mainly a consequence of the complex political situation in the areas affected by the earthquake. The 1667 earthquake heavily impacted Dubrovnik and the Dalmatian coast. This event is thought to be the biggest one in the history of Dalmatia and practically defines seismic hazard in the coastal area of Croatia. For this reason, the main goals in this article are the improvement of the epicenter location and the determination of the moment magnitude.
This collection brings together 13 papers by 16 authors presented at the international conference "Reporting on attacks on Dubrovnik and recognition of Croatia", held in Dubrovnik, Croatia, in ...October 2011. It provides a combined scientific and practical overview of the role of the media and journalists during the attack on Dubrovnik in autumn 1991 by the federal army (JNA) and Montenegrin reservists. This book represents a primary source of information about the propaganda war waged during the conflict between Croatia and Serbia in 1991, because some of the contributors were practical journalists and ministers during the events of that year. The book is structured in three parts: global media, international relations, and strategic communication during wartime; the example of Dubrovnik, and the practices of wartime reporting from the Dubrovnik area; and media analysis on the subject of war in Dubrovnik and Croatia. In the first part, the book examines the impact of the attack on Dubrovnik and the recognition of Croatia by the international community, the strategic steps taken by the Croatian government in the media/propaganda war, and the role of the Diaspora in winning over the international public to favour the Croatian side. In the second part, the book examines the reporting practices used to cover the siege of Dubrovnik and the role of local and international journalists, non-governmental organisations and fixers. Special attention is devoted to the conflict which arises when professional journalistic standards and patriotism clash, particularly if the journalist is reporting from his own town and his own family is in danger. The third part of the book brings an analysis of the war propaganda used by the Croatian, Serbian, and Montenegrin media.
In order to design effective responses to the complex phenomenon of overtourism, the tourism carrying capacity (TCC) of a destination is an essential reference point. This paper provides in-depth ...analysis of this correlation through the case study of Dubrovnik. The study applies a TCC calculation model that is able to quantitatively include the main effects of overtourism. The paper illustrates how these results can be used to automate specific decongestion policies by conceptualising a digital response system for real-time intervention to mitigate the undesirable effects of overtourism.
