Tržište energetskih mineralnih sirovina predstavlja kompleksne odnose ponude i potražnje dobara koje ovise o velikome broju čimbenika i rizika koje nose sa sobom. Rizici koji se pojavljuju mogu se podijeliti na tehnološke, ekonomske, političke, geopolitičke i druge. Tehnološki rizici mogu se javiti u svim segmentima poslovanja od istraživanja do transporta. Energetski ekonomski rizici uključuju moguće gubitke zbog, primjerice, pada cijena sirove nafte, porasta troškova za eksploataciju nafte, požara u rafineriji i sl. Osim energetskih ekonomskih rizika u obzir je potrebno uzeti i financijske rizike. Financijski rizici odnose se na moguće gubitke zbog promjena vrijednosti financijske imovine koju su izdale energetske kompanije, a mogu se podijeliti na: tržišni rizik, kreditni rizik, rizik likvidnosti, operativni rizik i pravni rizik. Zbog velike promjenjivosti cijena energije energetske kompanije rizike eliminiraju ili smanjuju na najmanju moguću mjeru energetskim financijskim derivatima, i to terminskim ugovorima te opcijama. Specifičnosti energetskih tržišta leže u nerazmjernoj geografskoj distribuciji rezervi energenata i eksploatacije s jedne te potrošnje energenata s druge strane. Tržišta nafte u svijetu, iako su zbog trgovine određenim markerima geografski lokalizirana, čine jedinstveno globalno tržište nafte sa sve manjim cjenovnim razlikama ponajprije zbog transportnih mogućnosti dobave nafte. Razvojem tehnologije ukapljivanja plina (UPP) sve je veći pritisak i na plinska tržišta i njihovu integraciju u globalno tržište, što je jedna od trenutačnih inicijativa unutar EU-a, iako su još uvijek znatne cjenovne razlike na pojedinim plinskim tržištima u svijetu (Sjedinjene Američke Države, Jugoistočna Azija). Razvoj globalnih energetskih tržišta omogućen je razvojem trgovine terminskih i opcijskih ugovora za trgovinu energentima koji su zamijenili prethodne bilateralne dogovore o kupoprodaji energenata između proizvođača i potrošača. Terminski su ugovori standardizirani ugovori kojima kupac pristaje kupiti određenu količinu robe (npr. sirove nafte) po određenoj cijeni s isporukom na neki datum u budućnosti. Prednosti su terminskih tržišta cjenovna transparentnost i informacije oko očekivanih cijena proizvoda. Opcijski ugovor sporazum je između prodavača i kupca koji kupcu ugovora daje pravo na kupnju ili prodaju određene robe po određenoj cijeni u budućnosti. Cijenu opcije određuje cijena temeljne imovine, cijena iskorištenja, rizik imovine, vrijeme dospijeća te kamatna stopa. Kupci i prodavači mogu upravljati rizikom promjene cijene kupnjom ili prodajom terminskih i opcijskih ugovora. Rizik se može potpuno eliminirati, ograničiti ili se katkad može preuzeti neuobičajeno velik rizik, za neku naknadu, što omogućuju terminska i opcijska tržišta koja su analizirana u radu kao i strategije trgovanja na njima. ; Energy mineral resources markets are represented by complex supply and demand ratios which are depending on different factors such as technical (transport) and geopolitical. The main specific of energy markets is represented by an uneven geographic distribution of hydrocarbon reserves and exploration on one hand and energy consumption on the other. World oil markets, although geographically localized, because of specific market trade, represent unique global market with decreasing price difference. Price differences are result of development of a transport possibilities of oil supply. Development of transport routes of natural gas and increasing number of liquefied natural gas terminals in the world give pressure to natural gas market and its integration into global gas market. Integration of regional gas markets into a common European gas market is main energy policy of EU concerning natural gas. On the other hand, there are still significant price differences on some markets (e.g. United States of America - South East Asia). Development of global energy markets is enabled by development of a futures and options contracts of an energy trade which have replaced bilateral contract deals between producers and consumers. Futures contracts are standardized contracts traded on exchanges. Buyer agrees to buy certain quantity of stock for an agreed upon price and with some future delivery date. Option is a contract which gives a buyer the option of the right to buy (or sell, depending on the option) an asset at predetermined price and at a later date. Stocks price risk can be managed with the purchase and selling futures and options contracts. This paper deals with futures and options energy markets and their market strategies.

U ovom članku nastoji se odgovoriti na pitanje tko su intelektualci i koliko su potrebni dru­štvu i Crkvi? Naime, bezbroj intelektualaca, među njima i teolozi, sudjelovalo je i sudjeluje u stvaranju i podržavanju destruktivnih suvremenih ideologija, religijskih fanatičnih pokreta i ciničnih politika. U bivšim socijalističkim zemljama angažirani humanisti, glavni nositelji slobode, disidenti i stradalnici, često su bili upravo intelektualci. U postsocijalističkim društvima i državama, pogotovo u našima na jugoistoku Europe, pogođenim ratovima i nacionalizmima te zahvaćenim tržišnom i konzumerističkom površnošću, intelektualci/teolozi su uz političare među najvećim kočničarima humanizacije društva: isključuju moral iz politike, odbacuju samokritičnost, građansku hrabrost te proročku dimenziju vjere. ; The aim of this paper is to provide an answer to the question of who are intellectuals and how much are they needed to society and the Church? Countless intellectuals, among them also theologians, played a role in creating and sustaining destructive regimes of contemporary ideologies, fanatical religious movements and cynical politics. In former socialist countries, active humanists, the main carriers of freedom, dissidents and sufferers, were often intellectuals. In postsocialist societies and countries, especially in Southeastern Europe, struck by war and nationalism, and overwhelmed with triviality of consumer's society, intellectuals/theologians are, next to politicians, the strongest barriers against humanization of society: they exclude morals from politics, they reject self­criticsm, civil bravery and prophetic dimension of faith.

One of the central notions of the post-Yugoslav literature is the status of democracy in national states formed after the breakup of Yugoslavia. From the perspective of the exile, not only as banishment, but also as a liberating outside view into the once common social, cultural and political space, the post-Yugoslav writers question the social democracy praxis in their former home states comparing it to the social practices in the states of their current residence. In her books of essays, Dubravka Ugrešić ironizes different forms of social ideology in Croatia from the beginning of nineteen-nineties. Her writing recognizes the standards of European democracy accompanied with the ideological view into the questions of social rights, religion and language as the stumbling block of modern society. Ugrešić describes democracy as a notion hiding different things: the praxis of ruthless capitalist exploitation, loss of media freedom, media manipulation, the censorship of corporate capitalism, production of lies, modern slavery. (Don't take it personal, 2014), validating in her essays the importance of literature in disclosure of autocracy masked as democracy. ; One of the central notions of the post-Yugoslav literature is the status of democracy in national states formed after the breakup of Yugoslavia.

The role of the European Union (EU) trade liberalisation with the Western Balkans — namely Kosovo, Montenegro, Albania, and Macedonia — is overestimated, as major benefits could be expected mainly from institutional reforms rather than trade creation and economic perspective due to low economic development and a lack of comparative advantages in these countries.1 The core issue to be addressed in this article is whether these firms can exploit the opportunities arising from the EU integration process. The aim of this article is to confirm the hypothesis that the Stabilization and Association Agreement (SAA) and trade agreements in the Western Balkans are not sufficient pre-conditions for successful performance and increase of exports by local firms; the main focus should be on the internal performance of firms. The paper analyses and compares the data collected by surveys conducted with local firms in Kosovo in order to measure the impact of the SAA. Finally, the article suggests that in the short and medium run the SAA could support and improve the quality of products, technical standards, and firm competitiveness as a pre-condition for better access to the EU market in the long run. ; The role of the European Union (EU) trade liberalisation with the Western Balkans — namely Kosovo, Montenegro, Albania, and Macedonia — is overestimated, as major benefits could be expected mainly from institutional reforms rather than trade creation and economic perspective due to low economic development and a lack of comparative advantages in these countries.1 The core issue to be addressed in this article is whether these firms can exploit the opportunities arising from the EU integration process.

Mada se bavljenje »pučkim« u kazališnim režijama Marina Carića uglavnom prepoznaje preko njegove dugogodišnje suradnje s Hvarskim pučkim kazalištem, u ovom ću se radu baviti tretmanom pučkog i popularnog, dotičući se fragmenata cjelokupnog redateljskog opusa Marina Carića. I u trenucima kada režira klasike domaće i svjetske dramske književnosti, Carić povezuje teatar i komunu, odnosno zajednicu. Na taj način posredno progovara o premošćivanju granica između popularnog i »elitnog«, o odnosu individualnog i kolektivnog, svjesnog i nesvjesnog, kulturalnog i političkog. ; In this paper I will talk about the treatment of folk theatre and popular theatre in the whole directing work of Marin Carić. When directing classics of local and international literature, Carić connects theatre and commune (community). In that way he speaks about crossing boundaries between popular and elitistic, about relationship between individually and collectively, conscious and unconscious, culture and politics.

U ovom radu se nastoji dokazati ispoljavanje političkog cinizma u humorističnim TV serijama političke tematike i kinizma u internetskim memeovima političke tematike. Nadalje, nastoji se objasniti povezanost političkog cinizma i pop kulture. U istraživanju su se koristile metode analize naracije i analize diskursa, a primijenjene su na TV serije Parks and Recreation i Yes Minister, te na internetske meme stranice Di su pare? i Ćaća se vrača. Također, cilj je bio dokazati kako se internetski memeovi političke tematike mogu smatrati novim oblikom građanskog neokinizma. Provedbom istraživanja, pronađeni su elementi političkog cinizma u navedenim TV serijama, a pronađeni su i elementi kinizma u memeovima političke tematike. ; This paper tends to prove the expression of political cynicism in comedic TV shows thematising politics and the expression of kynicism in Internet memes thematising politics. Furthermore, the paper tends to explain the link between political cynicism and pop culture. Methods used were narrative analysis and discourse analysis, which were applied on TV shows called Parks and Recreation and Yes Minister, then on meme pages called Di su pare? and Ćaća se vraća. The goal of this paper was to prove that political memes can be considered as a new form of neokynicism. The research found elements of political cynicism in the TV shows, as well as elements of kynicism in political memes.

The world of sports is a reflection of the world of politics. It is becoming increasingly multipolar with the emerging states hosting mega sporting events. Firstly, the article problematizes the concept of multipolarity and, secondly, globalisation by questioning whether the Olympic Games reinforce national identities and promote national interests by using Olympic diplomacy as a soft power tool. In doing so, the article explores the correlation between the changes in international affairs and the hosting of and participation at the Olympic Games by emerging states such as Brazil, China and Russia. The analysis distinguishes globalisation from the role of the nation-state, by highlighting the evident differences between emerging states in terms of hosting the Games, but also takes into consideration geopolitical and geo-economic parameters. ; The world of sports is a reflection of the world of politics.

U ovom prikazu autor analizira ekumenske i dijaloške poruke papâ koji su do sada posjećivali Bosnu i Hercegovinu i Republiku Hrvatsku u posljednjih dvadesetak godina, od 1994. do 2015. Ostvareno je sedam takvih pohoda: pet danas svetoga Ivana Pavla II.: tri Hrvatskoj (1994., 1998. i 2003.) i dva Bosni i Hercegovini (1997. i 2003.), te po jedan Benedikta XVI. (Hrvatskoj 2011.) i Franje (Bosni i Hercegovini 2015.). Još je jedan, a to je trebao biti prvi, bio posve pripremljen, ali neostvaren: pohod Ivana Pavla II. Sarajevu 1994. Budući da su objavljeni i svi za tu prigodu pripravljeni govori i poruke, i oni su uvršteni u ovaj pregled. Snagom svojega primata u Kristovoj Crkvi, a poštujući i naglašavajući sinodalnost kao način djelovanja episkopata i cijele Crkve, pape su pozivali na sprečavanje i obustavu rata, dok je on bjesnio ovim krajevima, na pravedan mir, zatim na opraštanje i pomirenje narodâ koji su do jučer međusobno ratovali, na odgovornost političkih vođa za pravedan mir i prosperitet svojih naroda. Posebno su pozivali vjernike da na temelju onoga što im je zajedničko, upravo kao vjernici dadu u tome svoj doprinos: kršćani Katoličke i Srpske Pravoslavne Crkve snagom svojega krštenja i vjere u Isusa Krista Spasitelja, a zajedno s njima i sljedbenici islama i židovstva, na temelju vjere u istoga Boga Stvoritelja. Na svim pohodima pape su slali osobito snažne ekumenske i dijaloške poruke, a redovito su se susretali i s predstavnicima drugih kršćanskih Crkava i drugih vjerskih zajednica. U Bosni i Hercegovini posebno su bili naglašeni susreti s Međureligijskim vijećem koje okuplja najistaknutije predstavnike Katoličke Crkve, Srpske Pravoslavne Crkve, Islamske te Židovske zajednice, a papa Ivan Pavao II., prigodom posjeta Sarajevu 1997., dodijelio je Međunarodnu nagradu za mir Ivan XXIII. četirima humanitarnim udrugama vezanim uz četiri vjerske zajednice u BiH: katoličkom Caritasu Biskupske konferencije BiH, pravoslavnom Dobrotvoru, muslimanskom Merhametu te židovskoj La Benevolenciji. Mir, pomirenje, opraštanje, na što su posebno pozvani svi vjernici, suradnja i solidarnost, vrednote su na kojima treba graditi dobru budućnost ovih država i naroda. Te poruke autor prezentira u ovom radu kronološkim redom pohoda papâ. ; In the article, the author analyzes ecumenical and dialogue messages of the Popes who visited Bosnia and Herzegovina and Croatia between 1994 and 2015. There were seven visits: five by Saint John Paul II, three to Croatia (1994, 1998, and 2003), and two to Bosnia and Herzegovina (1997 and 2003); one by Pope Benedict XVI (Croatia 2011), and one by Pope Francis (Bosnia and Herzegovina 2015). A visit to Bosnia and Herzegovina by John Paul II in 1994 was scheduled but did not take place. Since all the speeches and messages were prepared for this visit, these are covered in this overview. Respecting and accentuating synodality as a way of acting by bishops and the entire Church, and invoking the authority of their primacy in Christ's Church, and at a time of war in this country, the Popes called for the conflict to end and for further conflict to be prevented, for a just peace, for forgiveness and reconciliation among those who had recently fought against one another, and for leaders to take responsibility for delivering a just peace and prosperity to their people. The Popes urged people of faith to recognize what they had in common and to make a contribution on the basis of their faith, Catholics and Orthodox on the strength of their baptism and their faith in the Savior Jesus Christ, and together with them followers of Islam and the Jewish religion on the basis of the same faith in the Creator God. During their visits, the Popes especially emphasized strong ecumenical and dialogue messages and met with representatives of other Christian and religious communities. In Bosnia and Herzegovina, meetings with the Interreligious Council were highlighted, bringing together the most prominent representatives of the Catholic Church, the Orthodox Church, and the Islamic and Jewish religious communities. During his visit to Sarajevo in 1997, Pope John Paul II awarded the John XXIII international peace prize to four humanitarian organizations related to four religious communities in Bosnia and Herzegovina: Caritas of the Bishop's Conference of Bosnia and Herzegovina, Dobrotvor from the Orthodox Church, Merhamet from the Islamic religious community, and La Benevolencia from the Jewish religious community. The faithful are especially called to peace, forgiveness, and reconciliation, and cooperation and solidarity are values on which the future of the people should be built. The author introduces these messages following the chronological order of the pastoral visits.

U posljednjih 15-tak godina hrvatska politièka elita nije dovoljno uèinila na planu "debalkanizacije" lokalne uprave u RH koju obilježava korupcija, nepotizam, bahatost, glomaznost i neodgovornost. Nužno je stoga uspostaviti weberijanski model racionalne uprave koju, između ostaloga, obilježava načelo sine ira et studio. ; The territory of the Republic of Croatia was until the adoption of the Local Sel fgovernment and Administration Act of December 1992 divided into municipalities (102 in 1990) and associations of municipalities (10) which were local units at the regional level. Despite the argumented claims not to change the existing administrative-territorial division of the national territory until the end of the war, "extensive reorganization" of local self-government started. The number of local units increased by five times. In that process, not rational but political criteria were taken into consideration. During the 1990s, so called imaginary employment positions were opened in local units as one of the means of solving the problem of unemployment. Corruption and nepotism were among the main problems in local administration. "Balkanisation" of administration was at work, not only in Lika, but also in the Republic of Croatia. It was manifested in the following characteristics of administration: arrogance, massiveness, inefficiency and irresponsibility. The new political elite did little for "de-Balkanisation" of administration. That is, for the establishment of the Weberian model of rational administration which, among others, is characterised by the principle sine ira et studio. After political changes in 2000, certain efforts in respect of rationalisation of the system of local self-government have been made, particularly by the rationalisation of the number of employees. This, of course, is not enough. It is necessary to reduce a great number of municipalities, towns and counties. Instead of 21 counties, the Croatian territory should be divided into regions. And the area of Lika should probably most rationally be divided between the regions of Dalmatia and Rijeka.

Članak donosi pregled najosnovnijih postavki transhumanističkog pokreta. Transhumanistički pokret počinje krajem 20. stoljeća i zalaže se za korištenje tehnologije u svrhu unapređivanja ljudskog stanja. S obzirom na izvjesnu razinu sličnosti s posthumanizmom, pregled transhumanizma počinje analizom osnovnih pojmova: transhumanizam, posthumanizam, transhumano biće i posthumano biće. Nakon toga, transhumanizam se proučava iz perspektive različitih disciplina. Te su discipline: filozofija znanosti, metafizika, etika, filozofija uma, filozofija religije i filozofija politike. ; This paper features an overview of the foundations of transhumanism. The transhumanist movement has existed since the end of the 20th century and espouses the use of technology for enhancing the human condition. Due to a certain level of similarity to posthumanism, this overview of transhumanism begins with an analysis of basic terminology: transhumanism, posthumanism, the transhuman being and the posthuman being. After that, transhumanism is studied from the perspectives of different disciplines. These disciplines are: philosophy of science, metaphysics, ethics, philosophy of mind, philosophy of religion and political philosophy.

Stalni postav antike Arheološkog muzeja Zadar izlaže građu rim­ske antike po principu tematskih cjelina, kao što su rimska vojska, arhitektura i urbanizam, umjetnost, religija i pokapanje. Veliki dio izložene građe čini kamena plastika, točnije 96 vrijednih pri­mjeraka kojima je bila potrebna konzervatorsko-restauratorska obrada. U periodu od dvije godine na 50-ak kamenih spomenika izvršena je preventivna zaštita, dok je na 25 spomenika izvršen kompletan postupak zaštite. U ovom radu opisuje se konzerva­torski postupak i petrografske analize provedene na mramornim skulpturama i portretima iz zbirke Danieli. Na temelju uzoraka kamene prašine, uzetih s eksponata, determinirana je vrsta i na­stanak stijene. Petrografskom analizom određena je točnija pro­venijencija kamena i lokacija mogućih kamenoloma. ; The permanent exhibition of Roman antiquities in Archaeological Museum Zadar is organized by themes, such as Roman military, architecture and urban planning, art, religion and burials. Stone sculptures account for large part of the exhibits – specifically, 96 valuable specimens that required conservation and restoration work. Over a period of two years, some 50 stone monuments un­derwent preventive protection measures and 25 of them under­went a full protection procedure. This paper describes the con­servation treatment and petrographic analyses conducted on the marble sculptures and portraits from the Danieli Collection. Based on the stone dust samples collected from the exhibits, the type of the stone and its formation were determined. The petro­graphic analysis was used to establish a more accurate origin of the stone and the locations of the quarries it possibly came from.
