This article delves into the analysis of political communication between two Croatian political leaders, Prime Minister Andrej Plenković and President Zoran Milanović, through the prism of the ...infantilization of politics as part of the broader context of the infantilization of society. To achieve this, the article introduces selected theoretical theses on the infantilization of society and on how the expression of infantile (political) disgust, as a speech act, contaminates and pollutes the community. By employing Critical Discourse Analysis, the paper aims to illustrate how, in the case of these two politicians, the infantilization of politics is characterized by the replacement of political discourse with personal insults, witticism, affectation, and emotions such as disgust, occasionally intertwined with elements of narcissism. Exploring how their political discourse tends to be personalized and even celebritized, the paper shows how it further contributes to the overall infantilization of society

U tekstu se analiziraju tri lokacije u Bihaću s napuštenim objektima u kojima su se formalno ili neformalno zadržavali ili se još uvijek zadržavaju migranti. Riječ je o građevinama koje su nekoć bile ...dio industrijske ili urbane infrastrukture, da bi njihovim napuštanjem i devastacijom postale ruine, a dolaskom migranata i skloništa. Cilj je rada propitati njihovo fizičko i diskurzivno zaposjedanje, metaforičke borbe nad time kome pripadaju, tko ima pravo njihova korištenja i što one znače zajednici u kontekstu afektivnog odnosa spram gradske prošlosti i budućnosti. Rad se temelji na višednevnom boravku u Bihaću u jesen 2022. godine, terenskim bilješkama i fotografijama te na pregledu medijskih napisa vezanih za bihaćke slučajeve.
The text analyzes three locations in Bihać with abandoned buildings where migrants are formally or informally sheltered. These are the buildings that were once part of the industrial or urban infrastructure, but today they are abandoned and devastated ruins that have become shelters due to the arrival of migrants. This article seeks to question the struggles over who has the right to use these ruins, to whom they belong, and what they mean to the community in the context of the city’s past and future. The article is based on a multi-day stay in Bihać in the fall of 2022, field notes, photographs, and media articles related to the Bihać cases.

This paper problematizes the relationship between the working and middle classes in socialism, which was characterized by consumer culture and state of welfare. It also tackles the extinct middle ...class in the post-socialist context of the economic crisis and economically defined but politically void "new" working class. The economic realization of the Yugoslav socialist model - a hybrid of planned and market economies - combined the capitalist idea of the state of welfare with the communist execution of social rights. The socialist consumer culture, "searching for welfare", established a homogenous middle class as a proof of its own social success, leaving the "working class" to be conveniently invoked only in ideological manifests of the governing nomenclature. The discussion about the capitalist restoration of the post- socialist period gives precedence to the lament over the extinction of the middle class and its high standard of living over the issues of class relations. On the other hand, the majority of the 286,075 unemployed and 15,230 of the employed who did not receive their salaries in the first quarter of 2015 are low-skill or vocational work- ers, i.e., the working class. This new relationship between the working and middle classes problematizes the socialist inheritance of transformation of the working class into the middle class, the recent phenomenon of economically defined working class without a political meaning, the post-socialist class inequality between the employed and the unemployed, and the emancipation of the worker as "the scorned subject" and his mobilization without being necessarily included in the middle-class political activism for the "general good".
Čudovišni svijet europske margine, Miranda Levanat-Peričić i Tomislav Oroz, ur., Jesenski i Turk i Institut za etnologiju i folkloristiku, Zagreb, 2019., 371 str Pojam čudovišnosti pojavljuje se u ...mnogim radovima koji tematiziraju Balkan. "Čudovišno tijelo: prijevodi, prijenosi, izgubljena i nagomilana značenja" poglavlje je posvećeno "promjenama u značenjskom polju monstruma" od leksikološke prakse (Persida Lazarević di Giacomo) preko prekodifikacije magijskog (vlaškog) sustava znanja u dugoročno egzotiziran i komercijalan podžanr popularne kulture - kanibalskí žanr (Dragana R. Mašović), do analize figure "nagomilane drugosti" otjelovljene u balkanskoj fatalnoj ženi koja je na filmskom platnu metafora za sam Balkan (Nevena Daković i Biljana Mitrović) te analize umjetničkih refleksija na suvremena kičerozna mitska bića (Mileta Prodanović). Iako je fenomen čudovišnosti u kulturnoj antropologiji prisutan od samih začetaka discipline, znanstvenici koji u njoj djeluju tek rijetko i sporadično sudjeluju u istraživanjima okupljenima u interdisciplinarnom polju studija o čudovišnom (engl. monster studies).
In this paper the authors discuss three sets of issues. The first relates to the recent economic crisis, as well as the transitional crisis that preceded it, and is illustrated on the example of the ...devastation of the Sisak Ironworks. The collapse of the Croatian industry is explained primarily as a bankruptcy of political, ideological and economic values from the socialist period and only secondarily as the result of the global economic crisis. The second set of issues is revealed in the interviews with the employees of the Sisak Ironworks who were laid off, whose narratives mostly conceptualize their life without work, who talk about their life while they were still employed, and who consider their future life and work. In all these interviews the word 'hope' is repeated as a kind of a leitmotif. The notion of hope is, in fact, the object of the final set of issues. In recent years, within the humanities and social sciences, the concept of 'hope' was given considerable importance in research, especially in the analysis of individual and collective traumatic experience, such as losing one's job. Thus, the authors present some of the more important theoretical articles about hope, and problematize them based on their own field notes. //ABSTRACT IN CROATIAN: Autorice u clanku otvaraju tri problemska cvorista. Prvo se odnosi na propitivanje recentne ekonomske krize, ali i tranzicijske koja joj je prethodila, na primjeru propasti zeljezare Sisak. Kolaps hrvatske industrije ponajprije objasnjavaju kao politicki, ideoloski i gospodarski bankrot vrijednosti koje su postojale u socijalizmu, a tek onda kao realnu i globalnu ekonomsku krizu. Drugo se problemsko cvoriste otkriva u razgovorima s otpustenim radnicima i radnicama zeljezare u narativima koji uglavnom konceptualiziraju zivot bez posla, u pripovijedanju o zivotu dok je posla jos bilo te u razmisljanjima kako ce zivot i rad izgledati u buducnosti. Kao svojevrsni lajtmotiv ponavlja se rijec nada. Upravo je pojam nade predmet njihova posljednjeg razmatranja. Unutar drustvenih znanosti i humanistike posljednjih je godina koncept nade zauzeo vazno istrazivacko mjesto, posebice u analizi individualnog i kolektivnog traumatskog iskustva kao sto je i gubitak posla. Stoga autorice predstavljaju neke od znacajnijih teorijskih radova o nadi te ih propituju na vlastitoj gradi.
U radu se propituju rodno uvjetovane prepreke za uspješno poslovanje poduzetnica, posebice u segmentu ravnoteže privatnog i poslovnog života (work-life balance), rodno uvjetovane podjele kućanskih ...poslova unutar šireg problema socijalne reprodukcije u patrijarhalnim društvima te u segmentu stila vođenja poslovanja. Primijenjena je kvalitativna metodologija karakteristična za etnografska istraživanja – pomoću metode polustrukturiranog intervjua provedeni su razgovori s 24 poduzetnice, dok teorijski okvir pripada feminističkoj kritici roda i diskurzivnoj analizi. Istraživanje je provedeno u Bosni i Hercegovini, Hrvatskoj, na Kosovu i u Srbiji. Ključni nalazi pokazuju da specifične politike i mjere za bolje uključivanje žena u svijet poduzetništva nisu dovoljne ako isključuju širu kritiku patrijarhata, a time i prevladavajućeg koncepta poduzetništva, kroz rodno osviještene međusektorske politike. Novost koju ovo istraživanje donosi odnosi se na neformalne prakse koje žene prakticiraju u svojim formalnim i neformalnim poslovima, a koje imaju potencijala postati jednakovrijedni model poduzetničkog ponašanja.
In this article the authors examine gender-based obstacles to successful female entrepreneurs’ business practices, especially regarding work-life balance, gendered divisions of domestic labour within the wider problem of social reproduction in patriarchal societies, and business leadership. The authors have applied a qualitative methodology characteristic of ethnographic research. They analyse material from 24 semi-structured interviews with women entrepreneurs. The article’s theoretical perspective draws on the feminist critique of gender and discourse analysis, and the research was conducted in Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Kosovo and Serbia. The key findings demonstrate that policies and measures intended for the better inclusion of women in the world of entrepreneurship do not suffice unless they are embedded within a wider framework of the critique of patriarchy, as well as within a critique of the dominant concept of entrepreneurship, through gender-conscious intersectoral policies. This research’s originality lies in its focus on informal practices, which women perform in both their formal and informal businesses, and which have the potential to become an equally valid model of entrepreneurial behaviour.
