Volt and DiEM25: What are the drivers of different types of new Europeanism
Why History Matters? Populist Radical Right Governments in the EU and Their Foreign Policy
Four European populist radical right (PRR) prime minister parties (PiS, Fidesz, SDS and FdI) have displayed differing approaches to foreign policy. In part, these differences can be explained by their specific visions of history. Central and Eastern European (CEE) parties such as PiS, Fidesz and to a certain extent SDS, became more radical and Eurosceptic when in power. FdI, on the other hand, became less Eurosceptic and more mainstream after com…
Between Ottoman Legacy and Hybrid Dance Identity
The Ottoman Empire reigned in the Balkans from the second half of the 14th until the beginning of the 20th century. During their reign of over 500 years in Serbia alone, almost all aspects of life and tangible and intangible cultural heritage were strongly influenced by the Ottomans and the Turkish, in general, oriental way of life. These living circumstances and constant socio-political challenges greatly influenced the national and ethnic ident…

Failure to build Yugoslav and European identity: Comparison between the 1950s Yugo Prophecy and 1980s Euro Prophecy
The article discusses the main obstacles encountered in the course of the earliest stages of supranational identity – building that took place in Socialist Yugoslavia in the 1950s, and in the European Community in the 1980s. Due to World War II legacy, both supranational identities were predominantly built on a promise of peace and prosperity that exclusively related the emotional attachment of citizens to the economic and political success of th…
Centrist and Radical Right Populists in Central and Eastern Europe: Divergent Visions of History and the EU
This article compares the politics of history and positions in the EU of six ruling populist leaders and their parties (Fidesz, PiS, SDS, GERB, ANO and OĽaNO) from Central and Eastern European (CEE) EU member states. Through the comparison of leaders’ biographies and longitudinal analysis of party electoral manifestos an overlap between two types of CEE populism and two types of mnemonic actors in the region is found. Radical right-wing populist …
Yugoslavs and Europeans Compared: Supranational Polities and Supranational Identification
Drawing on Sekulić, Massey and Hodson’s seminal article ‘Who were the Yugoslavs?’, this paper compares the share and determinants of identifying as Yugoslavs during socialism with the panorama of primary European identification. Eurobarometer surveys containing data on European identification are utilized to that end. The study takes in consideration social and political contexts that shaped supranational identification in particular Yugoslav soc…

Student satisfaction with online learning experience is one of the measures of the excellence of learning practice. Our goal was to test the hypothesis that the predictors of students’ satisfaction with emergency remote online learning are their prior experience, attitude toward online learning, their motivation, aspe…
Why do Environmental and Ecological Economics Diverge: Comparison of the Ideological, Institutional and Scientific Backgrounds of the Main Actors
Environmental economics and ecological economics became established scientific fields as a result of the growth and the success of the environmental movement in the 1960s and 1970s. Using the strong programme in the sociology of scientific knowledge and the general theory of scientific/intellectual movements, this article compares four pairs of scholars (two pairs of scholars appropriated for these fields and fields' founders during the emergence…
The Rejectionist Ethic and the Spirit of the Green Economy: The Western Zeitgeist, the Croatian Context, and Green Entrepreneurship
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…
Perceived and Measured Physical Fitness of Police Students
The physical fitness of police officers needs to support good health and physical performance. Physical fitness comprises a considerable amount of training for police students who are to become police officers. However, to what degree police students are able to perceive their fitness level and differentiate between health-related and performance-related physical fitness is unknown. Therefore, the first aim of this study was to investigate the po…

IN CROATIAN: U radu se analiziraju neki od elemenata rada i stanovanja znanstvene populacije u Hrvatskoj dobiveni internetskom anketom koja je provedena 2017. godine. Anketa je upućena na adrese elektroničke pošte 7 269 znanstvenika, a odgovorilo ih je 1 966. Radne i stambene uvjete smješta se u suvremeni informatizacijski i postsocijalistički kontekst društva te ističe neke osnovne procese i fenomene koji na njih utječu, kao što su privatizacija…

Hrvatska ekonomija između europske periferije i poluperiferije: Nalazi iz povijesti hrvatskih visokotehnoloških poduzeća
IN CROATIAN: U radu se tvrdi da je naglasak u istraživanju stanja hrvatske ekonomije potrebno staviti na historijsku kontingenciju i geopolitički položaj Hrvatske kako bi se nadopunila prevladavajuća objašnjenja koja naglašavaju kulturne, unutarnjopolitičke ili ideološke faktore. Kroz kritičku primjenu teorije modernoga svjetskog sistema te zagovaranja korištenja događajne sociologije i analize ovisnosti o prijeđenom putu istražuje se utjecaj Prv…
Divided national memories and EU crises: How Eurosceptic parties mobilize historical narratives
Historical grievances of different political groups in the EU contributed to the rising opposition to “Brussels”. This opposition is often framed through memories that contest the official EU narrative of the peaceful and prosperous continental integration that was able to overcome the destructions of the two world wars and the Cold War divisions. Based on the analysis of the development of some of the most prominent Eurosceptic parties (le Front…
The Promethean role of Europe: Changing narratives of the political and scholarly left
The gradual abandoning of the ‘socialism in one country’ doctrine during the post-war period and the intensive transformation of European social democracy in the 1990s pushed social democratic politicians and intellectuals into the front line of advocates of a unified and powerful Europe. They contributed to the inclusion of social democratic and environmentalist values in the EU’s official narrative. The success of European integration and Georg…

These ideologies are presented by pro-EU scholars and politicians as ideologies rooted in European history and parts of…

Temelji se na iskazima ispitanika koji su predstavljali reprezentativni uzorak punoljetnoga hrvatskog stanovnistva (2.220), anketiran 2004. godine.
