V članku so celovito predstavljeni sledovi poselitve iz zgodnje bakrene dobe, odkriti v letih 1988 in 1989 ob gra- dnji orglarske delavnice v Spodnjih Hočah. Raziskave so med drugim razkrile pet ...naselbinskih jam, jame za stojke ter lončenino in kamnita orodja iz tega časa. Keramično gradivo kaže tehnološke, oblikovne in ornamentalne značilnosti lasinjske kulture in ne odstopa od gradiva, ki ga poznamo iz sočasnih bližnjih naselij v Podravju in Dravinjskih goricah. Povezave se kažejo predvsem s sočasnimi naselji na Dolenjskem, Gorenjskem in Štajerskem, v nekoliko manjši meri z naselji v Prekmurju in na zahodnem Madžarskem.
Članek obravnava poselitev jugovzhodne Slovenije v starejši železni dobi. Ker je bila problematika že predstavljena v samostojni publikaciji, smo v pričujoči razpravi na kratko povzeli znane ...ugotovitve in jih soočili z novimi podatki. Na ta način je bilo mogoče preveriti uporabnost metod in napovednih modelov, uporabljenih pred poldrugim desetletjem. The available evidence on the settlement of south-eastern Slovenia in the Early Iron Age was comprehensively discussed in a book published more than a decade ago. This contribution re-examines the topic in light of new discoveries and also with the aim of assessing the reliability of the methods and predictive modelling used in the past.
Inozemna izravna ulaganja smatraju se dugoročnim i stabilnim oblikom kapitala. Liberalizacijom tržišta zemlje su postale otvorene za ovakav tip ulaganja, a tijekom godine jača konkurencija za ...privlačenjem inozemnih ulagača. Općenito se smatra da će ekonomski stabilne zemlje s politikama koje olakšavaju i potiču djelovanje inozemnih ulagača imati veću vjerojatnost privlačenja inozemnih izravnih ulaganja. Cilj je ovog rada utvrditi te usporediti prednosti i nedostatke zemalja u privlačenju inozemnih izravna ulaganja na primjeru Republike Hrvatske, Slovenije, Mađarske, Srbije, Bosne i Hercegovine te Crne Gore. Iako postoje određene sličnosti među analiziranim zemljama, zaključak je da su oneipak heterogene s obzirom na poslovnu klimu, percipiranu korupciju te općenito, s obzirom na privlačnost za inozemna ulaganja.
S sondiranjem, opravljenim leta 1998, smo odkrili, da je bilo Gradišče obljudeno v petih arheoloških obdobjih. Najstarejši obiski vzpetine segajo morda že v neolitik, vsekakor pa v starejši del ...bakrene dobe, ko vzpetina še ni bila utrjena. V pozni bronasti dobi je naselje dobilo lesen opaž, napolnjen z zemljo, ki je svoj konec doživel v požaru. V starejši in mlajši železni dobi je bilo naselje obdano s kamnitim suhim zidom. V halštatski dobi je bil zid širok okoli 2 m, v latenski je bil ožji, v širino je meril okoli 1,2 metra. Posamezne najdbe govorijo za prisotnost človeka tudi v času pozne antike. Ker pa iz tistega časa ni sledov utrditve, je vzpetina verjetno služila kot občasno pribežališče.
The two primary objectives of this paper were (a) to develop first logically consistent TTO based EQ-5D-3L value sets for Slovenia and (b) to revisit earlier developed VAS based EQ-5D-3L value sets.
...Between September 2005 and April 2006, face-to-face interviews with 225 individuals in Slovenia were conducted. Protocols from the Measurement and Value of Health study were followed closely. Each respondent valued 15 health states out of a total of 23. Model selection was informed by the criteria monotonicity/logical consistency. Predictive accuracy was assessed in terms of mean square difference between out-of-sample predictions and corresponding observed means, as well as Lin's Concordance Correlation Coefficient.
Modelling was based on 2,717 VAS and 2,831 TTO values elicited from 225 respondents. A 6-parameter constrained regression model with a supplementary power term was selected for VAS and TTO value sets, as it produces monotonic values, and proved superior in terms of out-of-sample predictive accuracy over the tested alternatives.
This is the first EQ-5D-3L TTO based value set in Slovenia and the second in Central and Eastern Europe (besides Poland). It is also the first monotonic and logically consistent VAS value set in Central and Eastern Europe. Comparisons with Polish and UK TTO values show considerable differences, mostly due to mobility with having a substantially greater weight in Slovenia. The UK value set generally produces lower values and the Polish value set higher values for mild states.
The book ('Historical cartography of Slovenian territory') presents the history of cartographic development in Europe and Slovenian territory with a special emphasis on a uniform methodology of ...studying old maps. The introduction provides definitions of the basic cartographic terminology and discusses the importance of maps, their study, and the development of European cartography from its beginnings to the twentieth century. This is followed by a presentation of cartographic elements and their classification into five basic groups (i.e., natural, built, mathematical, and explanatory elements plus geographical names), and an analysis of their historical development. The main part of the volume presents the methodology for studying cartographic elements and the results of an analysis of fifty-eight medium-scale maps of what is now Slovenia from the mid-sixteenth century to the end of the nineteenth century. A list of basic information on the most important maps of Slovenian territory is added at the end as an appendix. Maps can serve as the basis for exploring and studying landscapes and their processes. Old maps provide original information and are thus considered primary historical sources. The methodology used in this volume makes it possible to study these primary sources in a uniform manner across longer time periods.
Zanimalo nas je, ali lahko morebitne statisticno znacilne razlike glede na demografske znacilnosti udeležencev kažejo na medgeneracijsko razlicna dojemanja bivalnega okolja. Za proucevanje smo ...uporabili metodologijo, ki sloni na kvantitativni metodi. Starejši udeleženci raziskave so porocali o vecjem zadovoljstvu, vecjem obcutku družbeno- ekonomske homogenosti soseske, boljših sosedskih odnosih in boljših obcutkih glede vzdrževanja grajenega okolja kot mlajši udeleženci. Zanimivo pa je, da mlajši udeleženci raziskave izražajo višjo stopnjo strinjanja glede vandalizma ter fizičnih in besednih napadov v soseski. Rezultati raziskave so bili v nasprotju s pricakovanji, saj predhodne študije pri starejših prebivalcih v primerjavi z mlajšimi ugotavljajo precej nižje stopnje strinjanja glede zadovoljstva z grajenim okoljem in pomembno višje stopnje glede kriminalitete. Rezultate si razlagamo z ugotovitvami številnih raziskovalcev, skladno s katerimi starejši ljudje še vedno na splošno raje ostarijo v svojem domu, v znanem okolju, saj se pogosto bojijo, da bi zanje prehod v kolektivno ali institucionalno življenjsko okolje neizogibno pomenil izgubo neodvisnosti, kar posledicno pomeni, da okolje sprejemajo tako, kot je. V raziskavi ugotavljamo še, da vrsta izkazanih statisticno znacilnih razlik kaže na to, da bivalno okolje, ki ima velik ucinek na zadovoljstvo in dobro pocutje, vendarle ne nudi enake kakovosti grajene socialne infrastrukture prav vsem
The paper discusses the COVID-19 mortality in Slovenia and Croatia in 2020 and 2021. The aim of the paper is to determine similarities and differences in mortality trends during COVID-19 period and ...to discuss the underlying causes and consequences. It is hypothesised that the unfavourable age structure of both countries was a catalyst of the excess mortality differentials, and that the different paths of post-socialist transitions significantly contributed to differential mortality in 2020. The analyses confirmed a biased effect of the excess mortality indicator, which is applicable only if supported with sufficient attributive data. Moreover, findings confirmed the hypothesis that COVID-19 mortality largely contributed to overall mortality in Slovenia in 2020, particularly due to the increased mortality in long-term care facilities (LTCF) which was about 70% higher compared to that of Croatia.
Tri desetletja samostojne države so vsekakor doba, ko lahko podamo mnenje o tranzicijskem procesu, ki se je na formalni ravni končal z vstopom v EU, tudi z zgodovinskega gledišča. Če se je vse do ...formalnega zaključka slovensko gospodarsko tranzicijo označevalo zlasti kot zgodbo o uspehu, so po letu 2004 v ospredje vse bolj stopala vse prej kot pozitivna mnenja in ocene. Knjiga obravnava osrednje procese gospodarske tranzicije, ki so spremenili gospodarsko sestavo, jo učvrstili in posodobili do te mere, da je slovensko gospodarstvo lahko hitreje dohitevalo razviti svet. Cilji avtorjevega zgodovinskega iskanja in spraševanja so pot v tranzicijo, vstopanje Slovenije v različne mednarodne integracije, makroekonomska stabilizacija, privatizacija in prestrukturiranje gospodarstva. Osvetli tudi problematiko regionalnega razvoja in razloge, zaradi katerih v obravnavanem obdobju ni prišlo do zmanjševanja medregionalnih razlik. Posebno pozornost namenja tudi gospodarski kriminaliteti, ki je tako posameznikom, kot podjetjem in državi povzročala veliko škode. Avtor v argumentirani pripovedi predstavi tudi značilnosti in dosežke procesa gospodarske preobrazbe v Srbiji ter na Hrvaškem, Češkem, Madžarskem in Poljskem.;Three decades of an independent state are certainly a long enough period to give an opinion on the transition process, which formally ended with the country’s accession to the EU, even from a historical point of view. Until its formal conclusion, the Slovenian economic transition was described primarily as a story of success, but the period after 2004 was marked by everything but positive opinions and assessments. The book discusses the central processes of economic transition, which changed Slovenia’s economic structure, strengthening and modernizing it to such an extent that the country was able to catch up with the developed world much more quickly. The aims of the author’s historical search and inquiry are the path to transition, Slovenia’s entry into various international integrations, macroeconomic stabilization, privatization, and economic restructuring. He also sheds light on the issue of regional development and identifies the reasons why the intended reduction of interregional disparities did not take place in the period under examination. Special attention is paid to economic crime, which caused enormous financial damage to citizens, companies, and the state as a whole. In a substantiated narrative, the author also presents the characteristics and achievements of the process of economic transformation in Croatia, Serbia, the Czech Republic, Hungary, and Poland.
