Uvod: Zdravstveno veleučilište je jedina visokoškolska ustanova u Hrvatskoj koja od 2015., poštujući pravilo pozitivne diskriminacije, svake akademske godine omogućava upis po jednog najbolje ...rangiranog pripadnika romske zajednice na svaki od studijskih smjerova iz područja zdravstvenih neliječničkih profesija, zahvaljujući čemu se broj pripadnika romske manjine sa završenom najvišom razinom edukacije znatno povećava na dobrobit same zajednice, ali i društva u cjelini.
Cilj i svrha rada: Svrha je rada približiti romsku problematiku prvenstveno drugim studentima pojedinih smjerova zdravstvenih profesija kako bi se dodatno povećalo razumijevanje važnosti uvedene prakse pozitivne diskriminacije i dodatno potaknulo većinsko stanovništvo na integraciju Roma u sve aspekte društva, uz uvažavanje i poticanje očuvanja posebnosti i bogatstva romske zajednice.
Metode rada: U radu se na temelju korištenja sekundarnim, javno dostupnim podacima, kao i rezultatima ranije provedenih istraživanja, postupcima analize i sinteze te indukcije i dedukcije daje pregled prisutnosti Roma u Europi i u Hrvatskoj te opisuju osnovna obilježja njihova porijekla, načina života, vjeroispovijesti, jezika i kulture kroz kritički osvrt na odnos između romskih skupina, kao i odnos većinskog stanovništva prema Romima te poziciju romske nacionalne manjine između asimilacije i potpune integracije u društvo.
Rezultat i diskusija: Romi su najveća etnička manjina koju čini najmanje 10 do 12 milijuna ljudi, od kojih više od šest milijuna živi na području EU-a, pretežno u zemljama geografski smještenima na teritorijima središnjih i istočnih država članica te dominantno na području Balkana. Prikaz povijesti migracije Roma prema europskom teritoriju poslužio je kao podloga za kritički osvrt na postojeće spoznaje o teritorijalnim, kulturološkim i dijalektološkim razlikama između različitih grupa Roma kako u svijetu tako i između grupa koje žive na području Hrvatske – sve od njihova dolaska do današnjih dana, s naglaskom na povijest i proces naseljavanja Rome Bajaše kao najbrojnije skupine Roma koji dominantno žive na području Međimurske županije.
Zaključak: Rromanipe ili romstvo pokazuje se kao integrirajući čimbenik identiteta i očuvanja opstojnosti Roma te najvažniji čimbenik kojim se Romi opiru asimilaciji i gubitku identiteta u odnosu na većinsko stanovništvo. Očuvanjem njihova identiteta, kulture i tradicije većinsko se stanovništvo obogaćuje kroz susret i dijalog s drugim, uz poštivanje različitosti i napredak i rast svih uključenih u taj susret.
Assessing the value of marketing to a business remains a thorny issue in theory and practice. Decision-making at the finance–marketing interface is under-researched, particularly for project ...businesses. Confronted by demands of accountability concerning the allocation of resources to meet competitive pressures, the paper examines the quality and extent of dialogue in investment decision-making. The return on investment (ROI) and marketing-specific investment (ROMI) are important factors at the marketing–finance interface. ROMI/ROI is examined from quantitative and qualitative viewpoints. The empirical evidence shows that short-term financial criteria dominate and are misaligned to long-term performance of project businesses and business units. Marketing investment in relation to project markets poses a particularly challenging environment. Client lifetime value and programme data sets for ROMI coupled with qualitative decision-making offer ways forward with constructive dialogue at the finance–marketing interface. The paper concludes with detailed recommendations for research and practice.
•Paper proceeds with setting out an overview of the ROMI in the framework of project.•ROMI analysis uses the marketing mix and relationship marketing concepts in the project context.•Qualitative research permits understanding the marketing-finance interface in project situations.•Study permits to check the engagement at this interface (acceptance + management).
The quality of life for ordinary Roman citizens at the height of the Roman Empire probably was better than that of any other large group of people living before the Industrial Revolution.The Roman ...Market Economyuses the tools of modern economics to show how trade, markets, and the Pax Romana were critical to ancient Rome's prosperity.
Peter Temin, one of the world's foremost economic historians, argues that markets dominated the Roman economy. He traces how the Pax Romana encouraged trade around the Mediterranean, and how Roman law promoted commerce and banking. Temin shows that a reasonably vibrant market for wheat extended throughout the empire, and suggests that the Antonine Plague may have been responsible for turning the stable prices of the early empire into the persistent inflation of the late. He vividly describes how various markets operated in Roman times, from commodities and slaves to the buying and selling of land. Applying modern methods for evaluating economic growth to data culled from historical sources, Temin argues that Roman Italy in the second century was as prosperous as the Dutch Republic in its golden age of the seventeenth century.
The Roman Market Economyreveals how economics can help us understand how the Roman Empire could have ruled seventy million people and endured for centuries.
Povijest romskoga stanovništva na hrvatskim područjima većinom je bila obilježena razdobljima u kojima su ga vlasti nastojale represivnim putem asimilirati u većinsko
stanovništvo. Za vrijeme Drugoga ...svjetskog rata nacističke su vlasti i njihovi
saveznici proveli genocid nad njima. Upravo je to ratno razdoblje smatrano
središnjom točkom u povijesti romskoga stanovništva. U radu se analizira na
koji se način pisalo o stradanju Roma u odabranim leksikografskim djelima
izdanima od 1945. do danas. Kako bi se bolje razumjeli rezultati ove analize, istraživanjem su obuhvaćene leksikografske publikacije određenih europskih zemalja. Rezultati istraživanja pokazali su kako je tema stradanja Roma u hrvatskim
leksikografskim izdanjima nedovoljno zastupljena, što je bio slučaj i u drugim
europskim leksikografijama. Ovakav odnos hrvatske leksikografije prema
povijesti jedne od najstarijih i danas jedne od brojnijih manjinske skupine u
Republici Hrvatskoj odraz je marginalizacije kulture sjećanja na romske žrtve
unutar hrvatskoga društva, posebice u znanosti i kulturi.
Similarly to other European countries, the history of the Roma population in Croatian areas was marked mostly by most periods of persecution and suffering, when the
authorities tried to use repression in order to assimilate the Roma into the
majority population. One such period was during World War II, when genocide
against the Roma was carried out in many European countries by the Nazi
authorities and their allies. After the War, the culture of remembering Roma
victims became marginalised in Croatia. This paper examines how Croatian
lexicography approached the issue of the significance of Roma suffering during
World War II in selected lexicographical works from 1945 till today, and
compares it to lexicographical publications from certain other European
countries. Research shows that Croatian lexicography neglected the importance
of Roma genocidal suffering as a central point in the history of the Roma
population. Such a similar marginal attitude towards Roma suffering in World
War II was present in other European lexicographies, which is only one of the
arguments in favour of the thesis that post-war society in Europe, including
Croatian society, neglected the importance of researching Roma suffering in war
and thus marginalised the culture of remembrance of Roma victims of genocide,
especially in science and culture.
The foundation of the Sasanian Empire in Persia in AD 224 established a formidable new power on the Roman Empire's eastern frontier, and relations over the next four centuries proved turbulent. This ...book provides a chronological narrative of their relationship, supported by a substantial collection of translated sources illustrating structural patterns. The political goals of the two sides, their military confrontations and their diplomatic solutions are discussed, as well as the common interests between the two powers. Special attention is given to the situation of Arabia and Armenia, to economic aspects, the protection of the frontiers, the religious life in both empires and the channels of communication between East and West. Considerable attention is also paid to exploring the role played by the Sasanians in the history of the ancient Near East. The book will prove invaluable for students and non-specialists interested in late antiquity and early Byzantium.
U radu je analiziran položaj romskog stanovništva na slavonskom području za vrijeme Drugoga svjetskog rata. Istraživanje je bilo usmjereno na analizu politike državnih i lokalnih vlasti prema Romima, ...koja je uključivala mjere poput njihovog popisivanja, zabrane kretanja i u konačnici njihove sustavne deportacije u jasenovački logor, gdje je znatan dio njih ubijen. Drugi dio odnosi se na analizu odnosa neromskog stanovništva na slavonskom području prema progonu i stradanju njihovih romskih sumještana, unutar kojeg su opisani slučajevi u kojima je dio Slavonaca izravno nastojao spasiti Rome molbama i drugim intervencijama kod ustaških lokalnih i državnih vlasti.
Long a source for quotations, fragments, and factoids, the Noctes Atticae of Aulus Gellius offers hundreds of brief but vivid glimpses of Roman intellectual life. In this book Joseph Howley ...demonstrates how the work may be read as a literary text in its own right, and discusses the rich evidence it provides for the ancient history of reading, thought, and intellectual culture. He argues that Gellius is in close conversation with predecessors both Greek and Latin, such as Plutarch and Pliny the Elder, and also offers new ways of making sense of the text's 'miscellaneous' qualities, like its disorder and its table of contents. Dealing with topics ranging from the framing of literary quotations to the treatment of contemporary celebrities who appear in its pages, this book offers a new way to learn from the Noctes about the world of Roman reading and thought.
Sicily has been the fulcrum of the Mediterranean throughout history. The island’s central geographical position and its status as ancient Rome’s first overseas province make it key to understanding ...the development of the Roman Empire. Yet Sicily’s crucial role in the empire has been largely overlooked by scholars of classical antiquity, apart from a small number of specialists in its archaeology and material culture. Urbanism and Empire in Roman Sicily offers the first comprehensive English-language overview of the history and archaeology of Roman Sicily since R. J. A. Wilson’s Sicily under the Roman Empire (1990). Laura Pfuntner traces the development of cities and settlement networks in Sicily in order to understand the island’s political, economic, social, and cultural role in Rome’s evolving Mediterranean hegemony. She identifies and examines three main processes traceable in the archaeological record of settlement in Roman Sicily: urban disintegration, urban adaptation, and the development of alternatives to urban settlement. By expanding the scope of research on Roman Sicily beyond the bounds of the island itself, through comparative analysis of the settlement landscapes of Greece and southern Italy, and by utilizing exciting evidence from recent excavations and surveys, Pfuntner establishes a new empirical foundation for research on Roman Sicily and demonstrates the necessity of including Sicily in broader historical and archaeological studies of the Roman Empire.
