U radu se analizira i problematizira proces tranzicije koji je hrvatska upravno-činovnička elita, napose veliki župani, prošla nakon raspada Austro-Ugarske Monarhije. Kao privilegiran dio društva u ...Monarhiji, nakon Prvoga svjetskog rata i ulaska hrvatskih pokrajina u Kraljevstvo SHS (Kraljevinu Jugoslaviju), položaj hrvatske upravne elite radikalno se promijenio. Autorica razmatra društvene
i političke uvjete s kojima se hrvatska upravna elita suočavala od 1918. do sredine 1920-ih godina.
Zapisi očevidaca o događanjima iz prošlosti važan su izvor podataka o samim događajima, posebno ako se radi o ratnim zbivanjima. Na samom početku Prvoga svjetskog rata srbijanska je vojska, nakon ...Cerske bitke, prodrla na teritorij Austro-Ugarske Monarhije, u Srijem i Bosnu. O prodoru srbijanske vojske u Srijem u Nadbiskupijskom arhivu u Đakovu svjedoče dva pisana izvještaja ondašnjeg župnog upravitelja iz Hrtkovaca, katoličkog svećenika Martina Firingera. Donosimo cjeloviti tekst pisama s pojašnjenjima i komentarima. Ova dva pisana izvještaja mogu biti dodatni izvor za manje poznate činjenice i događaje iz vremena Prvoga svjetskog rata na području Srijema.
Records of eyewitnesses of events from the past are significant data sources concerning these events, particularly if they deal with wartime events. At the very beginning of World War I, after the Battle of Cer, the Serbian army invaded Syrmia and Bosnia in the territory of the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy. Two letters from the report of the parish administrator from Hrtkovci, the Catholic priest Martin Firinger, kept in the Diocesan Archive, tell of the breakthrough of the Serbian army in Syrmia. The entire text of the letters, explanations and comments included, is provided in this paper. These two written reports are an additional source of lesser known facts and events from the time of World War I in Syrmia.
Na temelju izvora i literature autori prikazuju najznačajnije elemente koji su utjecali na gospodarski razvoj grada i kotara Vukovar na prijelazu iz 19. u 20. stoljeće. Kao gradsko središte te ...sjedište Srijemske županije, Vukovar je smješten na iznimno povoljnom prometnom položaju koji karakterizira plovnost rijeke Dunav što je, među inim, bio jedan od temelja gospodarskog razvoja tog kraja. Pod utjecajem niza političkih, društvenih i prirodno-geografskih elemenata, Vukovar se mijenja i oblikuje prerastajući u jednu od najznačajnijih gospodarskih točaka istočne Slavonije i Srijema.
Based on published archival sources and literature, the authors present the most important aspects that influenced on the economic development of the city and the district of Vukovar at the turn of the 19th to the 20th century. Vukovar as the center of the then Srijem (Syrmia) county is located on a very favorable traffic position characterized by the navigability of the Danube river. That position was one of the foundations of the economic development of that region, among other factors. Influenced by numerous political, social, natural and geographical elements, the city and district of Vukovar went through a transformation and became one of the most significant economic points of the Eastern Slavonia and Srijem.
Opisani so dosežki jezuitov iz Avstrijske in Češke province, ki so objavljali knjige o kemiji. Posebej so izpostavljene njihove povezave z območjem današnje Slovenije.

Nepojmljivo hitro uveljavljanje Boškovićevih pristašev v Habsburški monarhiji je primerjano s podobno hitro uveljavitvijo kinetičnih teorij atomov Slovenca Jožefa Stefana in z napol Slovenko poročenega Ludwiga Boltzmanna v istih zemljepisnih območjih.
Based on the liberal Slovenian newspapers from Trieste (Edinost) and Gorizia (Soča), the paper focuses on the idea of introducing the third state unit in the Habsburg Monarchy before the First World ...War. The author first presents the broader context in which the concept was formed and then analyses the comments of two newspapers on the reactions of various political groups, their ambitions, and the national tensions that arose in the context of discussing the proposed reform. The author argues that the trialist concept was, foremost, an Austrian attempt to federalize the Habsburg Monarchy in order to reduce the strength of Hungary. At the beginning of the 20th century, the majority of Slovenes and Croats, including the Slovene liberals from Trieste and Gorizia, supported this idea because it implied their political emancipation. On the other hand, Hungarians, Italians, German nationalists, and Serbs saw this concept as a threat to their own national interests. In the further development of the trialist concept, due to Austria’s ambitions to satisfy the Italians, Trieste and Gorizia were excluded from the imagined third unit, which led to tensions between the Slovenian liberals and conservatives, and in the Croatian-Slovenian relations as well. The Slovenian liberals from Trieste and Gorizia began to advocate the idea of a broader federalism, where the Habsburg Monarchy would have more than three federal units, while in the context of South Slavic relations they were inclined to Serbian state visions.
Rođen u Istri, tada dijelu prostrane Austro-Ugarske Monarhije, Fran Mandić (1851. – 1924.) završio je hrvatsku gimnaziju u Rijeci, a medicinu u Grazu i Pragu. Nakon promocije čitavu je liječničku ...karijeru proveo u Trstu, u njegovo doba glavnom gradu Austrijskog primorja. Nakon rada u bolnici, otvorio je vlastitu ordinaciju, a bio je i zdravstveni savjetnik Državnih željeznica. Čitavog je života, još od studentskih dana, sudjelovao u nastojanjima za postizanje jednakopravnosti hrvatskog naroda u Istri. Uvjeren u važnost obrazovanja, ulagao je svoje vrijeme i novac u otvaranje što većeg broja škola u Istri. Za zasluge u radu odlikovao ga je kralj, imenovan je počasnim građaninom Opatije, no najveće priznanje bio mu je ugled koji je uživao među pacijentima i članovima njihovih obitelji.
Born in Istria, then part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, Fran Mandić (1851-1924) finished a Croatian grammar school in Rijeka and studied medicine in Graz, Austria and in Prague, Bohemia. After graduation, he settled in Trieste, a major Austrian port, where he spent his entire career. After a period in the State Hospital in Trieste, Mandić ran his own practice and held a position of medical adviser of the Austrian State Railway in Istria. Since his student days, he had championed equal political rights for the Croatian people in Istria. Aware of the importance of education, he donated his time and money for a number of new schools to open throughout Istria. For his merits he received high honours from the Emperor and an honorary Citizenship of Opatija, but the greatest recognition was the respect he earned from his patients and their families.
Tema su ovoga rada arhitekti, graditelji i mjernici (geometri) na prostoru grada Mostara u razdoblju austrougarske uprave, ali i u posljednjem razdoblju osmanske vladavine. Otkrivene su njihove ...biografije, pozicije koje su zauzimali u graditeljskoj strukturi i autorstvo nad objektima ili urbanistièkim potezima. Utvrđeni su uvjeti unutar kojih su radili, zakonodavno-pravni okvir i metode rada koje su dovele do promjena slike grada.
This paper presents the Mostar-based architects, builders, and surveyors in the period of the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy as well as in the last phase of the Ottoman Empire. It looks at their biographies, professional positions and authorship of some structures and urban planning interventions. It also analyses their professional work in terms of the circumstances, legislative and legal framework, and methods of work that eventually changed the image of the city.
The paper investigates the circumstances in which an epidemic was proclaimed in the vicinity of Velehrad in Moravia, on the eve of the celebration of the thousandth anniversary of the St Methodius’s ...death on July 5, 1885, as one of the earliest examples of abusing medicine for political purposes. The events related to the prevention of the Velehrad celebration in 1885 have been analyzed on the basis of correspondence between Bishop Josip Juraj Strossmayer and Franjo Rački, as well as between Lujo and Kosto Vojnović. The analysis focuses on the measure of restricting movement, passed by a consensual decision of the governments of the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy and the Russian Empire, which prevented the organized travel of Slavic pilgrims from other parts of the two empires to Moravia, although the epidemic actually did not occur. The prohibition was purely political in nature, intended to prevent mass religious gatherings of Roman Catholics and Greek Catholics from the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy and the Orthodox and Greek Catholics from the Russian Empire. The aim was to obstruct putting in practice the idea of church unification between the Catholic and Orthodox churches, strongly promoted by the Holy See during the pontificate of Leo XIII (1878-1903). The Austro-Hungarian government considered the idea of church unification as extremely dangerous and an instrument of pan-Slavic propaganda that encouraged the penetration of the Russian Empire into the Balkan and Mediterranean regions, threatening the existence of the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy. The Russian government also considered the idea of church unification to be highly dangerous, especially the affirmation of the Old Church Slavonic liturgy as the common church heritage of Catholic and Orthodox Slavs, which it perceived as an instrument of Catholic proselytism. In addition, in accordance with the position of the Russian Orthodox Church, Russia did not recognize Sts Cyril and Methodius as saints of the Catholic Church, but of the Orthodox Church alone. Affirmation of the Old Church Slavonic liturgy by the Holy See was also directly linked to its efforts to win over the Orthodox Churches in the Balkans for an ecclesiastical union, which Russia considered a potential threat to one of its most important foreign policy priorities, which was expanding its influence to the West. By accepting the ecclesiastical union with the Holy See, the Balkan Orthodox states would be far lesser subject to Russian political influence.
U radu se analiziraju odnosi zadarskih Hrvata i Talijana u razdoblju razvijenih ideja nacionalnih integracija, za vrijeme kapitulacije Austro-Ugarske Monarhije i dolaska prvih talijanskih ratnih ...brodova i naposljetku tijekom dvogodišnje okupacije za trajanja poslijeratnih mirovnih pregovora. Na temelju izvornih arhivskih dokumenata, onodobnog tiska i odabrane literature zaključuje se da su međunacionalni odnosi u Zadru, uvjetovani političkim utjecajima, često prolazili teške faze netrpeljivosti i međusobnih sukoba.
