Važnost ovog Zbornika ponajviše se ističe u jasnom naglašavanju panoramske širine, umijeća i snage oblikovanja znanstvenog i intelektualnog interesa i doprinosa profesora Nikole Viskovića. Zajednički ...nazivnik svih priloga u knjizi jest poruka da povijest nomosa kao temeljne preokupacije teoretičara prava nije zanimljiva sama po sebi, već je ona prije svega važna zbog nemjerljivog značenja za razvoj i društveni utjecaj pravne i političke teorije do današnjih dana. Vješto razvijajući širok raspon intelektualnog interesa kroz različita područja prava, politike i kulture, Viskovićev élan vital rezultirao je produkcijom koja je, uspinjući se s plana pravne teorije na druge životne intelektualne, političke, kulturne, ekološke i druge teme i planove, uspješno razotkrivala – i još uvijek to čini – sva važna stanja, probleme, aktere i pravce suvremenog pravnog diskursa. Zalažući se prije svega za ozbiljno kritičko preispitivanje postojećeg državnopravnog poretka, u kojoj kritici njegovo integralno poimanje prava (svaka je pravna pojava spoj društvenih odnosa, vrijednosti i normi) natkriljuje svaki njegov redukcionizam, profesor Nikola Visković pojavljuje se i ostaje uporni, konstruktivni i dostojni akter one duge i bogate intelektualne tradicije koja u analizi stalnih i otvorenih tenzija između “činjenica i normi” (Faktizität und Geltung) neumorno i nezaustavljivo propituje i traži humani i časni smisao prava i politike.

Museums of history and contemporary culture face many challenges in the modern age. One is how to react to processes of Europeanization and globalization, which require more cross-border cooperation ...and different ways of telling stories for visitors. This book investigates how museums exhibit Europe. Based on research in nearly 100 museums across the Continent and interviews with cultural policy makers and museum curators, it studies the growing transnational activities of state institutions, societal organizations, and people in the museum field such as attempts to Europeanize collection policy and collections as well as different strategies for making narratives more transnational like telling stories of European integration as shared history and discussing both inward and outward migration as a common experience and challenge. The book thus provides fascinating insights into a fast-changing museum landscape in Europe with wider implications for cultural policy and museums in other world regions.
U radu se istražuje utjecaj monetarne i fiskalne politike na industrijsku
proizvodnju u Republici Hrvatskoj. Brojna inozemna i domaća istraživanja nastojala su
procijeniti ovaj odnos s ciljem ...pružanja preporuke nositeljima ekonomske politike.
Koristeći panel model, ispituje se kako relativne proizvođačke cijene, državna potrošnja,
osobna potrošnja, kamatne stope, realni efektivni tečaj, te strana potražnja utječu na 23
komponente industrijske proizvodnje prema stupnju tehnološkog intenziteta. Analiza je
provedena na tromjesečnim podacima za razdoblje od prvoga tromjesečja 2000. do
posljednjeg tromjesečja 2015. godine. Provedena je i analiza utjecaja monetarne i
fiskalne politike na industrijsku proizvodnju za razdoblje prije i nakon nastupanja
gospodarske krize u Republici Hrvatskoj. Rezultati empirijskog dijela istraživanja u
skladu su s domaćom i stranom literaturom te je pronađena statistički signifikantna veza
utjecaja monetarne i fiskalne politike na industrijsku proizvodnju.
When taxes are introduced on carbon and energy, and the revenue is used to reduce other taxes, will a positive effect be achieved both for the environment and for the economy? In 1990, Finland was ...the first country that introduced a tax on CO2. Later, Sweden, Denmark, Netherlands, Slovenia, Germany, and the UK followed suit with tax reforms that shifted taxation from labour to carbon and energy. Over the years, CO2 and energy taxes have gradually been raised, so that in Europe taxes of more than 25 billion EUR a year have been shifted. In this book, these experiences with carbon‐energy taxation, along with tax‐shifting programmes lowering other taxes, are examined in detail. Availability of unique and original data, including sector‐specific energy prices and taxes, as well as the use of advanced statistical techniques, such as co‐integration analysis and panel‐regression techniques along with the time‐series‐estimated macro‐economic model – Energy–Environment–Economy model for Europe (E3ME), makes this analysis truly comprehensive. Results of the analysis show that even though the taxes implemented have been relatively modest, they have, in the countries examined, contributed to a reduction in the emissions of greenhouse gases of up to 7 per cent, while for five of the countries a small increase in economic activity is recorded as a result of the tax‐shifting, with other impacts separated out. Due to concerns for competitiveness, the largest industrial emitters of greenhouse gases within Europe continue to benefit from exemptions from the carbon‐energy taxation schemes, as outside Europe there are major emitters without any economic penalties attached to greenhouse gas emissions. On basis of the lessons from carbon‐energy taxation learned in Europe, the editors of the book indicate how carbon‐energy taxation could usefully be combined with emissions trading, and they discuss how the recommendations from IPCC for a gradually escalating carbon price could be accomplished while preventing carbon leakage.
U radu se istražuje europeizacija nacionalne politike u kontekstu institucionalne prilagodbe za provedbu politika Europske unije, kao posebnogadijela koncepta europeizacije u europskim studijama. ...Institucionalna prilagodba samo je jedan od aspekata tog istraživačkog koncepta, s obziromna to da jednaku vrijednost koncept europeizacije ima i za područja istraživanja transfera javnih politika, stvaranje europskoga prava, kao i za čitav niz drugih procesa adaptacije i konvergencije koji stvaraju tu distinktivnu strukturu vladavine. Rad se bavi institucionalnom prilagodbom u pogledu njezinih prednosti i rizika tijekom implementacije europskih politika, kao i provedbe mozaičnih i brojnih europskih projekata. Opisuje se na koji način institucionalna dinamika, naročito ona u kojoj su države članice dominantni akteri, ostvaruje ciljeve provedbe europskih politika te kojim se institucionalizacijama Europska unija vodila u stvaranju toga kompleksnog političkog sustava. Prije svega istražuje se institucionalna i policy prilagodba kao rezultat višestrukih kompromisa tijekom povijesno-institucionalnog razvoja, nakon čega se analiziraju političke prednosti i rizici institucionalne europeizacije.
The article explores the Europeanization of national policies in the context of institutional adjustment for the implementation of EU policies, as a distinct part of the concept of Europeanization in European studies. Institutional adjustment is merely one aspect of this research concept, considering that the concept of Europeanization holds equal value in researchareas concerning the transfer of public policies, the creation of European law, as well as a number of other processes of adaptation and convergence that form this distinctive structure of governance. The paper deals with institutional adjustment regarding its advantages and risks during the implementation of European policies, as well as the execution of diverse andnumerous European projects. It describes how institutional dynamics, particularly the ones in which member states are dominant actors, achieve theobjectives of implementing European policies, as well as the institutionaldevelopments the European Union pursued in creating this complex polit-ical system. Primarily, it investigates institutional and policy adjustments as a result of multiple compromises during historical-institutional development, followed by an analysis of the political advantages and risks ofinstitutional Europeanization.
