More Than Just Money? Understanding Generation Renewal Among Small-Scale and Large-Scale Fishers
IN ENGLISH: This study explores the factors influencing Croatian fishers’ decisions to stay in or leave the profession, a key issue for generational renewal in fisheries. Analyzing data from 191 small-scale (SSF) and large-scale (LSF) fishers, it applies the Pollnac and Poggie framework, supplemented by economic, environmental, and institutional trust variables, to analyze motivations for staying or leaving. Results show that while income is a ke…
The price of trust
IN ENGLISH: This study examines the determinants of trust in physicians in 30 countries, focusing on general trust, perceived competence, and fidelity (defined as prioritizing patient welfare over profit). Using 2021 ISSP data combined with macro-level indicators such as the Human Development Index (HDI), health expenditures, and public–private funding preferences, the analysis explores how individual experiences and healthcare system characteris…
Rethinking Socio-Ecological Resilience
This article develops a socio-ecological understanding of societal resilience by situating COVID-19 pandemic responses within broader configurations of cultural orientations, social foundations, and socio-metabolic pressures. Building on resilience debates from ecology and the social sciences, the paper argues that resilience cannot be reduced to “bounce-back” capacity or institutional preparedness alone, because societies may be resilient in und…
Energy Transition between Promises and Realities - A View from the European Semi-periphery
IN ENGLISH: Croatia, like some other EU countries, is poor with fossil fuels while at the same \ntime has a significant renewable energy potential that is not sufficiently utilized. The current \ntotal energy import is around 50% of overall energy needs, and there is an increase in the share \nof renewables. In the electricity sector, an increase is happening due to investments in wind energy \nin the last decade, however, the largest share relat…
An agenda for future Social Sciences and Humanities research on energy efficiency
Decades of techno-economic energy policymaking and research have meant evidence from the Social Sciences and Humanities (SSH)—including critical reflections on what changing a society’s relation to energy (efficiency) even means—have been underutilised. In particular, (i) the SSH have too often been sidelined and/or narrowly pigeonholed by policymakers, funders, and other decision-makers when driving research agendas, and (ii) the setting of SSH-…
Tko su antimaskeri u Hrvatskoj? Prilog istraživanju antimaskerske reakcije tijekom pandemije bolesti Covid-19 u Hrvatskoj
IN CROATIAN: Od samog početka pandemije bolesti COVID-19 alternativni narativi pojavljivali su se ne samo u virtualnim prostorima već i kao dio oficijelnijih objašnjenja društvenih aktera relevantnih za upravljanje pandemijskom krizom. Kao reakciju na širenje zaraze, vlasti posvuda uvode mjere karantene, obavezu poštivanja epidemioloških mjera, zatvaranje ekonomije (tzv. lockdown), što od ljeta pa kroz jesen i zimu 2020. godine dovodi do prosvjed…

The Rejectionist Ethic and the Spirit of the Green Economy
This article explores how particular layers of the Western Zeitgeist and the Croatian social and economic context influenced the emergence and development of green entrepreneurship, and whether they could be helpful in understanding the potential transition to a green economy. It is argued that what initially drove several of interviewees to green entrepreneurships could be subsumed under the label rejectionist ethic used here to encompass differ…
Values Underpinning a Degrowth Transformation of the Socio-Political System
This paper deals with attitudes, values and ideologies as potentials in influencing cultural change toward more environmentally and socially sustainable socio-political system. The main framework of the discussion is the degrowth paradigm and the results of analyses are based on the two modules of the International Social Survey Program (2017). The main indicator of the (social) degrowth potentiality is the ‘degrowth scale’, consisting of dimensi…
Complementarity between the EJ movement and degrowth on the European semiperiphery
Exploration of Class and Political Behavior in Croatia
In Western European countries, studies on the relationship between class position and political outlooks so far have a limited understanding of the relevance of class analysis, while in semiperipheral countries, like Croatia, research on class-related mechanisms and political behavior is modest, with a clear deficit of empirical research. The main goal of class analysis is to have the potential to explain various life outcomes primarily through e…
For my health and for my friends”
Central and Eastern Europe
This essay offers a fresh exploration of atheism in post-communist Central and Eastern Europe (CEE), while also providing an overview of existing research into atheism and non-religion in the region. In light of the legacy of state-imposed atheism, and the subsequent (apparent) ‘religious awakening’ in some countries, the authors demonstrate the significance of national religious traditions and confessional structures for understanding diversity …
