In this second edition, the authors present new developments in the sustainability discussion and argue that a new understanding of sustainability is needed if we are to truly serve future ...generations ecologically, economically, and equitably.
Despite the great flurry of activity around sustainability, the concept itself remains highly contested. This book argues that a new conceptualization of sustainability is needed if we are to achieve a healthful and sustainable environment for the long term. The authors examine the uses, misuses, and abuses of sustainability and provide case studies of faux sustainability in practice. Seeking to redefine and clarify the concept and its application, they offer a new definition of sustainability - what they call neo-sustainability - to help guide policies and practices that respect the primacy of the environment, the natural limits of the environment, and the relationship between environmental, social, and economic systems.
Offering a comprehensive view of sustainability, this text is essential reading for all students and scholars in the field. It will also be of interest to environmental professionals and activists.
The underground Macedonian Revolutionary Organization recruited and mobilized over 20,000 supporters to take up arms against the Ottoman Empire between 1893 and 1903. Challenging conventional wisdom ...about the role of ethnic and national identity in Balkan history, Keith Brown focuses on social and cultural mechanisms of loyalty to describe the circuits of trust and terror-webs of secret communications and bonds of solidarity-that linked migrant workers, remote villagers, and their leaders in common cause. Loyalties were covertly created and maintained through acts of oath-taking, record-keeping, arms-trading, and in the use and management of deadly violence.
V letu 1973 so začeli na zdajšnjem Oddelku za pedagogiko in andragogiko Filozofske fakultete Univerze v Ljubljani (tedaj v imenu še ni bilo andragogike) prvič predavati andragogiko. To so bili tudi ...začetki oblikovanja andragogike kot samostojne znanstvene discipline v Sloveniji. Razvoj izobraževanja odraslih pa se v Sloveniji ni začel šele takrat. Bil je odvisen od organizacij, združenj in institucij, delujočih na področju izobraževanja odraslih, od družbenih razmer in okoliščin, pobud in zgledov, upravnih in političnih struktur ter odločevalcev, strokovnih in drugih srečanj ter posvetov, projektov in akcij, gibanj in usmeritev, koncepcij in stališč zavzetih in dovolj razgledanih posameznikov. Navedeni vplivi so delovali pospeševalno, pa tudi zaviralno, o čemer razpravljamo v pričujočem prispevku.
This book covers the full story of the Ustasha, a fascist movement in Croatia, from its historic roots to its downfall. The authors address key questions: In what international context did Ustasha ...terrorism grow and develop? How did this movement rise to power, and then exterminate hundreds of thousands of innocents? Who was Ante Pavelić, its leader? Was he a shrewd politician, able to exploit for his independent project Mussolini’s imperial ambitions, Hitler’s pan-German aims, and the anti-Bolshevism of the Holy See and the Western bloc? Or was he, consciously or not, a pawn in other hands, in a complex international scenario where Croatia was only arena among many? And after the movement’s collapse, how were several of the most prominent Ustasha leaders able to evade capture by Tito’s victorious army? The facts and documents confront us with the ambivalence of terrorism.The book places the appearance of the Ustasha movement not only in the context of the interwar Kingdom of Yugoslavia but also in the wider perspective of the emergence of European fascism.
This collection provides an in-depth and up-to-date examination of the concept of Intangible Cultural Heritage and the issues surrounding its value to society. Critically engaging with the UNESCO ...2003 Convention for the Safeguarding of the Intangible Cultural Heritage , the book also discusses local-level conceptualizations of living cultural traditions, practices and expressions, and reflects on the efforts that seek to safeguard them. Exploring a global range of case studies, the book considers the diverse perspectives currently involved with intangible cultural heritage and presents a rich picture of the geographic, socioeconomic and political contexts impacting research in this area. With contributions from established and emerging scholars, public servants, professionals, students and community members, this volume is also deeply enhanced by an interdisciplinary approach which draws on the theories and practices of heritage and museum studies, anthropology, folklore studies, ethnomusicology, and the study of cultural policy and related law. The Routledge Companion to Intangible Cultural Heritage undoubtedly broadens the international heritage discourse and is an invaluable learning tool for instructors, students and practitioners in the field.

"It is a most welcome addition to literature, and a must-have for all who want to deepen their understanding of the scholarly research into and safeguarding practice of Intangible Cultural Heritage. (...) With the publication of this Routledge Companion, Intangible Cultural Heritage has certainly reached a new level of scholarly recognition. And that is a very good thing."
- Steven Engelsman, Director, Weltmuseum Wien, Austria "The Routledge Companion to Intangible Cultural Heritgae provides asnapshop- or rather, a whole picture album- of the evolution of a profoundly important cultural policiy and paradigm... The editors have assembled here a massive and varied set of essays- 38 individual chapters written by 54 authors, including anthropologists, folklorists, legals scholars, museum professionals, ethomusicologists, and community members." - Michael Dylan Foster, University of California, USA

Onkologija predstavlja važan segment sveukupnoga hrvatskoga zdravstvenog sustava. Sama onkologija
jedna je od trenutačno najpropulzivnijih medicinskih struka te smo svakodnevno svjedoci ekspanzivnog ...rasta
novih modaliteta onkološkog liječenja. Ove činjenice nameću imperativ stvaranja onkološke mreže koja bi kao
zadatak imala standardiziranje onkološkog liječenja i osiguravanje dostupnosti novih modaliteta liječenja za sve
oboljele od zloćudnih bolesti, neovisno o njihovom mjestu boravka.¹ Hrvatska već ima prepoznate i definirane
regionalne onkološke centre u sklopu kliničkih bolničkih centara u Zagrebu, Rijeci, Osijeku i Splitu. Nasreću, u
Hrvatskoj postoji tradicija, stara nekoliko desetljeća, razvoja onkoloških centara u općim i županijskim bolnicama.
Poimence, to su neklinički onkološki centri u Županijskoj bolnici Čakovec, Općoj bolnici Dubrovnik, Općoj bolnici
Karlovac, Općoj bolnici Koprivnica, Općoj bolnici Pula, Općoj bolnici Slavonski Brod, Općoj bolnici Šibenik, Općoj
bolnici Varaždin i Općoj bolnici Zadar. Svrha ovoga istraživanja, provedenog u svim nekliničkim onkološkim
centrima
Hrvatske te korištenjem podataka Državnog zavoda za statistiku i Hrvatskog zavoda za zdravstveno osiguranje,
bila je uvidjeti kako je trenutno organizirana onkološka skrb u Republici Hrvatskoj i koja je uloga nekliničkih
onkoloških centara u liječenju bolesnika sa zloćudnim bolestima u Republici Hrvatskoj.
Citizens’ Solidarity in Europe systematically dissects the manifestations of solidarity buried beneath the official policies and measures of public authority in Europe. In this exciting and ...innovative book, contributors offer comprehensive and original data and highlight the detrimental factors that tend to inhibit or annihilate solidarity, and those that are beneficial for the nurturing of solidarity.
During World War II, Croatia became a fascist state under the control of the Ustasha Movement - allied with Nazi Germany and Fascist Italy. Here, Goran Miljan examines and analyzes for the first time ...the ideology, practices, and international connections of the Ustasha Youth organization. The Ustasha Youth was an all-embracing fascist youth organization, established in July 1941 by the `Independent State of Croatia' with the goal of reeducating young people in the model of an ideal `new' Croat. This youth organization attempted to set in motion an all-embracing, totalitarian national revolution which in reality consisted of specific interconnected, mutually dependent practices: prosecution, oppression, mass murder, and the Holocaust - all of which were officially legalized within a month of the regime's accession to power. To this end education, sport, manual work and camping took place in specially established Ustasha Youth Schools. In order to justify their radical policies of youth reeducation, the Ustasha Youth, besides emphasizing national character and the importance of cultural and national purity, also engaged in transnational activities and exchanges, especially with the Hlinkova mladez Hlinka Youth of the Slovak Republic. Both youth organizations were closely modelled after the youth organizations in Nazi Germany and Fascist Italy. This is a little studied part of the history of World War II and of Fascism, and will be essential reading for scholars of Central Europe and the Holocaust.
Aktualni proces pristupanja Hrvatske Organizaciji za ekonomsku suradnju i razvoj (OECD) jedinstvena je prilika za opis djelovanja ove međunarodne organizacije u području zdravstva te pregled ...predviđenih implikacija za hrvatski zdravstveni sustav. Pregled se posebno osvrće na rad OECD-a u području pokazatelja kvalitete, sigurnosti i ishoda zdravstvene zaštite te je zasnovan na znanstvenoj i sivoj literaturi kao i višegodišnjem iskustvu autora u radu s OECD-om. OECD je prepoznat po svojim naporima u prikupljanju i analizi podataka i izvještavanju o zdravstvenoj kvaliteti, sigurnosti i ishodima na globalnoj razini. Rad OECD-a u području zdravstva uključuje komparativnu analiza podataka, procjenu kvalitete zdravstvene skrbi u zemljama članicama, mjerenje ishoda zdravstvene skrbi te analizu učinkovitosti i pravednosti zdravstvenih sustava. Implikacije za hrvatski zdravstveni sustav u svjetlu pristupnog procesa mnogostruke su i odnose se na zdravstveni sustav, ustanove, zdravstvene djelatnike kao i pacijente. U ovom procesu prije, ali i nakon pristupa OECD-u, pridržavajući se međunarodnih standarda, učeći iz najboljih praksi i poboljšavajući podatkovnu kulturu, Hrvatska može raditi na postizanju bolje kvalitete zdravstvene skrbi, poboljšanih zdravstvenih ishoda i učinkovitijeg zdravstvenog sustava. U ovom je procesu važno da se kreatori politike (engl. policy-makers) i dionici u Hrvatskoj pozabave izazovima koji se mogu pojaviti tijekom ovog procesa kako bi se osigurala uspješna tranzicija u članstvo u OECD-u i povezane koristi za zdravstveni sektor.
