Članek obravnava metodološke probleme vrednotenja geodiverzitete na primeru Krajinskega parka Logarska dolina. V njem sta predstavljeni in primerjani dve delno avtomatizirani metodi vrednotenja: prva ...združuje prostorsko odvisnost števila geomorfoloških in hidroloških elementov geodiverzitete s podatki o hrapavosti površja, druga pa upošteva tudi litološko sestavo. Indeksi geodiverzitete so bili izračunani z velikostjo rastrskih kvadratov 50 × 50 m z namenom primerjav in ugotavljanja posplošitev na preučevanem območju. Ugotovljeno je bilo, da vključitev litoloških elementov ni smiselna, če je litologija v vrednotenje že vključena preko geomorfoloških elementov, če z množenjem le poveča vrednost območij z visokim indeksom hrapavosti ali če so si tipi litoloških enot glede na značilnosti podobni.
The paper discusses the explicitly stated understanding of legal science as it appears in compulsory course textbooks on positive law subjects at the Faculty of Law, University of Zagreb. The first ...part of the paper describes the research problem and posits the corresponding hypotheses, states the research aims, describes the method of qualitative content analysis, and elaborates on the content units used (themes, categories and subcategories). The second part establishes the textbooks which contain an explicit determination of a branch of legal science that they belong to, or legal science in general, and the extent to which they contain it. Furthermore, it establishes how the subject matter, objectives and methods of legal science are defined in the textbooks and whether the textbooks include interdisciplinarity as a part of legal research. The third part determines the predominant understanding of the subject matter, objectives and methods of legal science and the predominant understanding of interdisciplinarity of legal research in the analyzed course textbooks. The conclusion contains a discussion of research results, determines the extent to which the hypotheses are confirmed and highlights the possible avenues of further empirical and theoretical research on (Croatian) legal science. The research results demonstrate that the analyzed textbooks mostly contain at least an elementary determination of legal science, but differ greatly with respect to the placement, extent, and way of its elaboration. Furthermore, according to the predominant understanding, the subject matter of legal science are general legal norms. Its objectives are to describe the law, systematize it and to recommend more appropriate legislative solutions and ways of interpreting and applying it, while its methods are the dogmatic method, the comparative method, and the sociological method. Objectives and methods are mostly just mentioned, without being described and explained. Finally, less than a half of the textbooks mention that legal research includes some level of interdisciplinarity, while the predominant understanding is that interdisciplinarity consists primarily in using insights from other scientific disciplines.
This article examines the analytical and methodological potential of the 'psycho-socio-cultural' interface, i.e. the intersections between (social) psychology and anthropology. In contrast to ...cultural anthropology, which does not always shy away from psychological tools as adequate research methods, social anthropology has historically seldom shown interest in psychological insights, even willingly ignoring field research in social psychology, as well as the social psychological contributions to the study of social interactions. In order to highlight the usefulness of a disciplinary rapprochement in more detail, the first part of this article is devoted to the methodological and analytical implications arising from the complementarity between the “essentially psychological nature of anthropology” and social psychology, through the theory of social representations, which Moscovici considers as the “anthropology of modern culture”. We will then look specifically at the theory of social representations, whose epistemological conceptualisation of the interaction between individuals and society provides a framework for bridging the disciplinary gaps between anthropology and social psychology, as a strategy for cultural studies. Finally, the paper discusses what academic and social effects such a psycho-anthropological approach could yield. Fractures and intersections of anthropology and social psychology – Interdisciplinarity through social representation theory as a strategy for cultural studies.

‘Od žlice do grada’, ideja koja označava projektiranje u svim mjerilima za urbani kontekst, vrlo se često i neprecizno atribuira Ernestu Nathanu Rogersu. U ovome će se radu pokušati rekonstruirati ...geneza te fraze u širemu povijesnom rasponu. Naslov rada aludira na razvoj te ideje preko Buckminstera Fullera pa ga treba shvatiti kao radni. Rad daje pregled teorijskog koncepta o ‘sveobuhvatnom dizajnu’ i predstavlja ideje u projektantskoj praksi proistekle iz tog koncepta. Svrha je članka prikupiti sve relevantne elemente njegova razvoja, kritički ih evaluirati i staviti ukupni koncept u kontekst suvremene problematike prakse urbanizma, arhitekture i dizajna.
The concept widely known as ‘From the spoon to the city’ refers to design at all scales for urban context and is often loosely attributed to Ernest Nathan Rogers. This article aims to reconstruct the origin of this slogan in a broader historical context. The title of this article alludes to its evolution across Buckminster Fuller’s work. The article gives an overview of the theoretical concept of ‘comprehensive design’ and presents some ideas in design practice that owe their origin to it. The purpose of this article is to gather all elements that shaped its evolution, critically evaluate them, and put the overall concept in the context of the contemporary issues in urbanism, architecture, and design.
Razina ekonomske slobode svake se godine mjeri putem jedinstvene svjetske metodologije. Na taj je način kanadski Fraser Institute razvio sustavni pristup javnim politikama koje utječu na opseg javne ...potrošnje i državne imovine, visinu glavnih poreza, inflaciju, slobodnu trgovinu, na regulaciju poslovanja, tržišta rada i kredita te ostala mjerena područja. Takav policy okvir može biti koristan za dizajniranje strukturnih prilagodbi kojima se poduzetnike može osloboditi od prekomjernog utjecaja i troška države. Također, smanjivanjem i ograničavanjem uloge države ekonomske slobode doprinose poboljšanju institucionalnog okvira za slobodno tržište. U konačnici, ekonomske slobode usko su vezane uz geopolitiku.
Financijska pismenost i financijska informiranost opisuju se kao znanje,
vještine i ponašanje koji mogu ukloniti nepoželjne financijske rizike, kao i potaknuti poduzetničko ponašanje. Sa službenim ...takvim opismenjavanjem i obrazovanjem građana započelo su u svijetu početkom 2003. godine, a sustavnija istraživanja o toj tematici u Hrvatskoj su započela početkom 2015. S obzirom na to da su nositelji trendova mladi, ovo istraživanje usmjereno je na utvrđivanje informiranosti mladih o financijskim pitanjima, kao preduvjeta financijske pismenosti. U istraživanju smo se koristili mješovitom metodologijom koristeći Sequential Explanatory Design. Prvi dio istraživanja je proveden metodom ankete na uzorku od 1731 studenta, a drugi metodom fokus grupa koje su uključile 21 sudionika.
In the literature, financial literacy and financial awareness are described as knowledge, skills and behaviour that can eliminate undesirable financial risks, as well as encourage entrepreneurial behaviour. Official education of citizens around the world has begun in 2003, but in Croatia such a systematic approach started in 2015. Considering the fact that young people are the bearers of future trends this research focuses on identifying young people's awareness of financial issues as a precondition for financial literacy. This research was conducted using mixed methodology and Sequential Explanatory Design. The first part of the research was conducted using a
survey method among 1731 students in Croatia and the second part by using focus groups that included 21 participants.
Research Methodology for Social Sciences provides guidelines for designing and conducting evidence-based research in social sciences and interdisciplinary studies using both qualitative and ...quantitative data. Blending the particularity of different sub-disciplines and interdisciplinary nature of social sciences, this volume:
Provides insights on epistemological issues and deliberates on debates over qualitative research methods;
Covers different aspects of qualitative research techniques and evidence-based research techniques, including survey design, choice of sample, construction of indices, statistical inferences and data analysis;
Discusses concepts, techniques and tools at different stages of research, beginning with the design of field surveys to collect raw data and then analyse it using statistical and econometric methods.
With illustrations, examples and a reader-friendly approach, this volume will serve as a key reference material for compulsory research methodology courses at doctoral levels across different disciplines, such as economics, sociology, women’s studies, education, anthropology, political science, international relations, philosophy, history and business management. This volume will also be indispensable for postgraduate courses dealing with quantitative techniques and data analysis.
U ovom teorijsko-istraživačkom radu analiziraju se mogućnosti upotrebe metodologije GPS-a u istraživanju na području društvenih znanosti. Rad karakteriziraju dva temeljna cilja. Prvi je cilj ...prikazati načine primjene tehnologije GPS-a u istraživačkoj praksi i na temelju toga predstaviti što se upotrebom te tehnologije i metode može postići. Drugi cilj usmjeren je na analizu praktične valjanosti teorije ubrzane modernosti. Teorije koje u fokusu imaju ubrzanu modernost iako su relativno apstraktne, mogu se potvrditi određenim empirijskim postupcima. Jedan od takvih postupaka jest i ovo istraživanje, kojim se upotrebom tehnologije GPS-a istražuje dinamika kretanja pojedinaca u urbanom prostoru Grada Zagreba. Uz upotrebu te tehnologije moguće je analizirati dinamiku kretanja ljudi s obzirom na prostorno-vremenski kontekst. Metoda ovoga istraživanja bilo je praćenje sudionika istraživanja njihovim pametnim mobilnim uređajima s ugrađenim sustavom GPS-a. Deset sudionika istraživanja pristalo je na praćenje njihova GPS-a 30 dana. Iz rezultata istraživanja proizlazi različita dinamika kretanja. Naime, sudionici su tijekom radnog dijela tjedna bilježili visoku razinu prostorne dinamike u zgusnutom vremenskom okviru (što ide u prilog teoriji ubrzane modernosti), dok su se tijekom vikenda u većoj mjeri zadržavali u svojim domovima. Istraživanjem se postavljaju četiri dimenzije, između ostalih, koje se tehnologijom GPS-a mogu obuhvatiti u okviru društvenih znanosti te se postavljaju metodološke smjernice za kombiniranje tehnologije GPS-a s drugim metodama.
Li Zehou yra vienas svarbiausių ir įtakingiausių šių laikų Kinijos filosofų, vienas iš nedaugelio Kinijos intelektualų, kurio darbai sulaukė gausių skaitytojų už Kinijos sienos. Jo interesų sritis ...apima protingo ir tinkamo būdo suderinti praeitį ir ateitį, tradiciją ir modernybę, Kiniją ir Vakarus paieškas. Tokiame kontekste jis mėgino sukurti ankstyvojo marksizmo ir klasikinio konfucianizmo sintezę. Straipsnyje kritiškai analizuojant šiuos bandymus atskleidžiamos tokioms pastangoms iškylančios teorinės problemos. Atsižvelgiant į tai, kad Konfucijaus ir Marxo filosofijos sąsajos yra šiuolaikinėje Kinijoje plačiai aptarinėjamas ir itin prieštaringas klausimas, šiuo straipsniu siekiama kiek praskaidrinti šią problemą.
Straipsnio tikslas – paaiškinti indukcijos funkcijas pažinimo procese remiantis marksistinės gnoseologijos metodologiniais principais. Teigiama, kad mokslo kelias yra ne nuo atskirybės prie ...bendrybės, o nuo bendrybės prie bendrybės, kuriame individualus patyrimas (konkreti stebėjimo medžiaga) yra tik nesavarankiškas tarpininkas. Individualaus patyrimo funkcinio nesavarankiškumo išraiška pažinime yra žmogaus polinkis apibendrinti. Skiriami formalus loginis ir bendrasis metodologinis apibendrinimo problemos aspektai. Apibendrinimas pažinime yra visuomeninės praktinės veiklos pagrindu susiformavusi reiškinio ar savybės aiškinimo forma. Sukaupto patyrimo istorinis ribotumas bei to patyrimo kūrybinis pobūdis nulemia apibendrinimo turinio hipotetiškumą, reikalaujantį specialaus pagrindimo. Šia prasme apibendrinimo problema, kartu su metodologiniu, apima ir loginį, t. y. apibendrinimo struktūros tyrimo, aspektą, kurio uždavinys – nustatyti formalias teisingo apibendrinimo sąlygas. Marksistinė metodologija, įveikdama stebimąją tradiciją gnoseologijoje, leidžia pozityviai įvertinti šiuolaikinės indukcinės logikos problematiką.
