Avtorice se v skladu s sodobno mestno politiko, katere cilj je oblikovati konkurenčno mestno identiteto, v članku ukvarjajo s postsocialistično identiteto Novega Pazarja, srednje velikega mesta na ...jugozahodu Srbije. Proučujejo oblikovanje mestne identitete na podlagi dinamične interakcije med akterji in družbeno-prostorskimi strukturami, pri čemer uporabljajo pojem mestnega habitusa, ki temelji na Bourdieujevi teoriji o habitusu, in Lefebvrov koncept družbene produkcije prostora. Posebno pozornost namenjajo izzivom, s katerimi se postsocialistična mesta spopadajo pri ponovnem vzpostavljanju svoje identitete po obdobju spodbujanja modela socialističnega (industrijskega) mesta in njegovem poznejšem zatonu. Njihova analiza temelji na anketi med prebivalci Novega Pazarja (n = 299), intervjujih s strokovnjaki, zaposlenimi v mestni upravi ter drugih lokalnih ustanovah in organizacijah (n = 14), in na vsebinski analizi uradnega spletišča mesta. Njihovi izsledki kažejo, da je Novi Pazar mesto z močno identiteto, a tudi precejšnjimi strukturnimi omejitvami, ki onemogočajo lokalno delovanje, na podlagi katerega bi lahko mesto izkoristilo svoj potencial za oblikovanje konkurenčne identitete.
Avtorici sta se v članku osredotočili na starostnike, ki so zaradi svojega zdravstvenega stanja ter fizičnih in družbenoekonomskih značilnosti bolj ranljivi z vidika posledic podnebnih sprememb kot ...druge skupine prebivalstva. V svetu sta opazna dva trenda: naraščanje podnebnih sprememb in staranje prebivalstva, zlasti v mestih. Povezave med navedenima skrb vzbujajočima trendoma v teoriji in praksi niso jasne, zato so nujne splošne smernice, ki so preproste za uporabo ter bi vladam, ustanovam in skupnostim omogočile zadevne rešitve. Avtorici sta zato na podlagi kritičnega pregleda literature predstavili sedem tematskih področij na različnih ravneh, ki so poglavitna za načrtovanje starosti prijaznih mestnih območij, odpornih proti podnebnim spremembam: okoljsko varnost, obveščanje in družbeno angažiranost ter zdravstvene in socialne službe na ravni mesta, okolico in prevoz na ravni sosesk ter javne površine in toplotno udobje in stanovanjske objekte na ravni skupin stanovanjskih zgradb. Predstavitev povezav med omenjenima trendoma v okviru, predstavljenem v tem članku, prispeva h globalnemu ozaveščanju, oblikovanju ukrepov in usmerjanju politik.
This paper attempts to clarify the complex nature of how and when the Rheic Ocean closed in what is now Central Europe and, with respect to the various terranes that were involved, offer a regional ...chronology for the associated structural, metamorphic and igneous processes that accompanied and followed this closure. The Variscan orogen in Europe originated from the multiple collisions of Gondwana-derived terranes (the Armorican Terrane Assemblage) with Laurussia: however, many important structural details on the timing of these collision-related events remain obscure. In the Sudetes, the Staré Město Belt represents a WNW-dipping part of the Rheic suture that developed from the continental collision of the eastern terranes of the Armorican Terrane Assemblage (now in the Bohemian Massif) with the Brunovistulian Terrane (a part of Laurussia/Old Red Continent). In this study, the results of monazite Th–U–total Pb, garnet Lu–Hf and zircon U–Pb geochronology were integrated into a newly established D1–D3 tectonometamorphic sequence. A Th–U–total Pb age of ~368Ma from a monazite that grew concurrently with D2 metasedimentary garnet, as well as Lu–Hf ages of ~361Ma and ~355Ma obtained from D2 metasedimentary garnets, implies that the regional contractional deformation and progressive metamorphism of D2 took place mainly during the Famennian (Late Devonian) and extended into the Visean (Middle Mississippian of the Early Carboniferous). The ion probe U–Pb zircon ages of ~355Ma and ~359Ma obtained from leucocratic neosomes in migmatized amphibolites confirmed a lag in the peak temperature that followed crustal thickening during D1–D2. Metamorphic monazites dated at ~340Ma provide a time for the subsequent D3 dextral transpressional regime. The closure of the Staré Město Belt segment of the Rheic Ocean probably resulted from a head-on hard collision between the westerly subducting Brunovistulian promontory of Laurussia and the eastern members of the Armorican Terrane Assemblage. Thus, the Rheic Ocean closed during the Late Devonian at ~370–360Ma and preceded the collision of the Armorican Terrane Assemblage with East Avalonia at the western margin of what is now the Bohemian Massif. Following ocean closure, the Rheic slab may have broken off, resulting in the suture zone becoming dominated by lateral “tectonic escape” movements of the colliding terranes at ~340–330Ma (Visean). Syntectonic D3 intrusions of granodiorite/tonalite magma acted as a hot lubricant and stitched the suture zone together.
•We clarify a scenario of how and when the Rheic Ocean closed in Central Europe.•Polyphase closure of the eastern sector of Rheic Ocean in Devono-Carboniferous times.•Variscan collision between Laurussia and Armorican Terranes occurred at 370–360Ma.•The suture was taken over at 340–330Ma by strike movements and intruded by tonalites.
This study discusses the evaluation of the effect of using different weighting approaches in the process of landslide susceptibility assessment. Weighting process is needed, especially for landslide ...susceptibility assessment using bivariate statistical analysis, and can radically affect the resulting susceptibility map. The bivariate analysis belongs to a set of quantitative methods. The initial point for the bivariate analysis is selection and processing of input factors in the form of parametric maps, factors that play a dominant role in slope stability. The parametric maps were subsequently evaluated related to landslide inventory map. Another essential part of the bivariate analysis is the determination of the weight of the given input factors. Herein, four methods were applied to determine the weights of each class within reclassified input factors, as well as the total weight of the individual input factors. As a study area, the district of Kysucké Nové Mesto in Slovakia was chosen. Four prognostic maps were the result using entropy index, AHP method (AHP—analytic hierarchy process) (the input factors weighted as a whole), frequency ratio and landslide index (the weights were calculated for each class of input factor). Final landslide susceptibility maps were verified trough ROC curves (ROC—receiver operating characteristics). The accuracy of maps was ascertained by the size area (AUC—area under curve) under ROC curve. The highest accuracy was obtained for maps using weights calculated from the landslide index (88.5%) and the frequency ratio (88.4%).
Prispevek obravnava mesto v nočnem času. Posebnost obravnavane tematike je časovna razsežnost prostora ter območja – kraji, ki »živijo« ponoči. Noč ima ekonomsko, kulturno, oblikovno in socialno ...vsebino in prav te lastnosti določajo spoznavanje mesta v nočnem času. Izpostavljene so naslednje teme: kraji potrošnje, kraji dela, kraji zabave, kraji nočne podobe mesta ter kraji družbeno nesprejemljivega, delikventnega vedenja. Empirični del se nanaša na mesto Maribor.
Prispevek proučuje problematiko spremljanja rezultatov učenja v organizacijskem kontekstu in poskuša ponuditi odgovor na vprašanje, zakaj in kako na organizacijski ravni spremljamo učinkovanje ...načrtovanega učenja na uspešnost. S pomočjo pregleda literature na področju poslovnih ved avtor sistematizira razprave in ugotavlja, da pri tem zaradi kompleksnosti in zahteve po uporabi različnih metodoloških prijemov še vedno obstaja veliko nesoglasij. Kljub temu meni, da je spremljanje nujno, saj je prvi pogoj za identifikacijo pomembnih točk dela, pojasnjuje pričakovanja vodstva do zaposlenih in spodbuja njihovo kreativnost. V sklepu avtor poudarja, da je pri spremljanju treba poznati kontekst organizacije, proces načrtovanega učenja in njegove rezultate pa je treba spremljati večdimenzionalno ter na več ravneh. Pri tem je nujno ohraniti enostavnost izvedbe spremljanja in razumljivost ugotovitev.
Diversity of Belonging in Europe analyzes conflicting notions of identity and belonging in contemporary Europe. Addressing the creation, negotiation, and (re) use of diverse spaces and places of ...belonging, the book examines their fascinating complexities in the context of a changing Europe. Taking an innovative interdisciplinary approach, the volume examines renegotiations of belonging played out through cultural encounters with difference and change, in diverse public spaces and contested places. Highlighting the interconnections between social change and culture, heritage, and memory, the chapters analyze multilayered public spaces and the negotiations over culture and belonging that are connected to them. Through analyses of diverse case studies, the editors and authors draw out the significance of the participation or exclusion of differing community, grassroots, and activist groups in such practices and discourses of belonging in relation to the contemporary emergence of identity conflicts and political uses of the past across Europe. They analyze the ways in which people’s sense of belonging is connected to cultural, heritage, and memory practices undertaken in different public spaces, including museums, cultural and community centres, city monuments and built heritage, neglected urban spaces, and online fora. Diversity of Belonging in Europe provides a valuable contribution to the existing bodies of work on identities, migration, public space, memory, and heritage. The book will be of interest to scholars and students with an interest in contested belonging, public spaces, and the role of culture and heritage.
