Administrative procedures, as well as public bodies that carry out these procedures, ought to perform functions related to the application of administrative law in a constantly changing social, economic, and political environment. This presents them with new challenges and expectations time and time again. According to the findings of the this study, the relation of transparency and administrative procedures – which could be described as a type of historically rooted but, at the same time, contemporary expectation towards public administration – fits in the above concept. The study attempts to interpret and define the concept of transparency on the basis of the terminology used by international organisations in the field of the examination of administrative procedures, and thus to highlight the issues, divergences and their causes.

Rad istražuje načine na koje su rodni odnosi izraženi kroz specifičnu komunikativnu infrastrukturu grada – nazive javnih prostora i urbane plastike – čija svrha, tvrdimo, nadilazi funkcionalnu (orijentir; komemoracija verzije nacionalne povijesti) i su-određuje odnose moći u sferi roda. Analizirajući obrasce označavanja, oblikovanja i pozicioniranja imena, ploča i spomenika u Zagrebu, kombinacijom statističke obrade, mapiranja i istraživačke šetnje, pokazujemo da urbano znakovlje glavnog grada Hrvatske, u vremenu širenja debate o rodnoj ravnopravnosti, zadržava dominantno patrijarhalno uređenje koje je nasljeđeno iz perioda posvemašnjeg rasta, s kraja 19./početka 20. i sredinom 20. stoljeća, i znatno preferira muškarce kao aktere i tumače javnog prostora i povijesti. Usvojena prostorna analiza obuhvaća ne samo učestalost nego i prostornu distribuciju te tipove reprezentacije žena u urbanom znakovlju (imena, ploče, spomenici) Zagreba. Dobiveni rezultati propituju se pod lupom kritičke i konstruktivističke škole kulturnih studija i kontekstualiziraju procesima medijske posredovanosti gradova i urbanog života tranzicijskih društava. ; This paper investigates the ways in which gender relations are articulated through a particular communicative urban infrastructure, such as names of public spaces and public art. We argue that their selective design and distribution suggest meanings beyond functional purposes (to serve as orientation points or as national commemorative sites) and co-constitute gendered power relations. Reading the patterns of signification, formulation and positioning of names, plaques and statues in Zagreb, through our raft of statistical analysis, mapping, and ethnographic walks, we show that the urban signage of the capital of Croatia, in a time of increased debates about gender equality and identity, continues to uphold the patriarchy inherited from earlier periods of city growth, namely the late 19th/early 20th centuries and mid-20th century. Our spatial analysis concerns not only the frequency but also spatial distribution and forms of representation of women in the names of public spaces and commemorative plaques and statues. The research presented here suggests that Zagreb's public urban signage significantly prefers men to women as actors in public space and nation's history. We discuss our findings from the perspective of critical and constructivist approaches in cultural studies and contextualise them with reference to the ways in which contemporary urban spaces are said to be 'mediated cities'.

Ovaj rad nastoji istražiti koje su odrednice europskih programa volontiranja za mlade koje pridonose izgradnji europskog identiteta i europske solidarnosti. Europski programi volontiranja mehanizam su povezivanja i osnaživanja mladih europskih volontera. Kroz aktualni program Europske snage solidarnosti mladi neosporno rade na svojim vještinama. Ipak, naglasak je na preventivnom ili kurativnom, a uvijek solidarnom djelovanju. Volontiranje je usmjereno na krizu zajednice i tako dotiče mnogobrojne dimenzije ekspresije europskog identiteta. Proces provedbe volonterskih programa za mlade prolazi višestruku koordinaciju između europske i nacionalne razine. Uredba Europske unije temelj je za provedbu programa, koji uvelike djeluje po načelima europske Strategije za mlade, čime se pokazuje da legislativna i provedbena strana europskih programa volontiranja zajednički djeluje na koncepciju europskog identiteta. Istraživanje putem intervjua sa stručnjacima, provedeno za potrebe ovog rada ukazuje na brojne sličnosti i komplementarnost koncepata koji čine odrednice europskih programa volontiranja i europskog identiteta, poput osjećaj pripadnosti zajednici, međunarodnih bliskih, prijateljskih odnosa, zajedničkih aktivnosti, kao i standardizacije te regulacije politika za mlade na europskoj razini. Dijeljenje iskustava mladih Europljana koji su odrednice europskih programa volontiranja za mlade i europskog identiteta praktično povezali i primjenili u vlastitim životima može imati dugoročno pozitivne učinke na budućnost EU. ; This paper seeks to explore what are the determinants of the European youth volunteering programs that contribute to the building of the European identity and European solidarity. European volunteering programs are the mechanism for connecting and empowering young European volunteers. Through the current program, the European Solidarity Corps, young people are indisputably working on their skills. However, the emphasis is on preventative or curative, but always solidarity action. Volunteering has focused ...

U radu su istraženi organiziranje i djelovanje građevne službe u Križevcima te aktivnosti njezinih službenika od 1777. Do 1918. godine Djelovanje građevne službe u Križevcima ovisilo je o organizaciji građevne službe u Hrvatskoj. Podijeljeno je na pet razdoblja: od 1777. do 1848.; od 1848. do 1868.; od 1868. do 1876.; od 1876. do 1894. te od 1894. do 1918. godine. Da bi se stekao uvid u djelovanje križevačke građevne službe i njezinih službenika, najprije su ukratko opisane graditeljske prilike u Križevcima, kao i u njegovoj okolici te u Hrvatskoj, nakon čega je predočen popis službenika po godinama. U križevačkoj građevnoj službi ističu se dvojica stručnjaka koji su kasnije bili zaposleni u građevnoj službi u Hrvatskoj: Juraj pl. Augustin, koji je od 1876. do 1909. godine bio predstojnik Građevnog odsjeka pri Vladi te Franjo Horvat, koji je bio prvi potpredsjednik Udruženja jugoslavenskih inženjera i arhitekata. Budući da prvi podaci o građevnoj službi u Križevcima datiraju od 1777. godine, ona se smatra jednom od najstarijih u Hrvatskoj, a nakon Zagreba 1770. i Varaždina 1773. godine. ; This paper investigates the organisational structure and operations of the construction service in Križevci, as well as the activities of its employees from 1777 to 1918. The activities of the construction service in Križevci depended on the organisational structure of the construction service in Croatia. It is divided into five periods: from 1777 to 1848; from 1848 to 1868; from 1868 to 1876; from 1876 to 1894; and from 1894 to 1918. To gain insight into the operations of the construction service in Križevci and its employees, this paper, first of all, describes the construction circumstances in Križevci, as well as those in the surrounding areas and Croatia, followed by a list of employees over the years. Two experts stand out in the construction service in Križevci, both of whom were later employees of the Croatian construction service: Juraj Augustin, who was the head of the government's Construction Department from 1876 to 1909, and Franjo Horvat, who was the first vice-chairman of the Udruženje jugoslavenskih inženjera i arhitekata (Association of the Yugoslav Engineers and Architects). Since the first information on construction service in Križevci are dated at 1777, it is considered to be one of the oldest in Croatia, following the ones in Zagreb, dated at 1770, and Varaždin, dated at 1773.

U radu se donosi presjek izvora (epigrafičkih, diplomatičkih, narativnih, kartografskih) i kritički pogled u historiografiju za srednjovjekovni i ranonovovjekovni Beram, koji u kontekstu hrvatskoga glagoljaštva zauzima iznimno važno mjesto. Iako je riječ o ruralnome području s pojedinim urbanim elementima – jedan je od kaštela Pazinske knežije sa statusom gradića (Stätl) te župa Porečke biskupije – to mjesto baštini povijesnoumjetničke i glagoljične spomenike iznimne važnosti. U prvome su to redu hrvatskoglagoljični rukopisi Prvi i Drugi beramski misal te Prvi i Drugi beramski brevijar (danas svi u Narodnoj in univerzitetnoj knjižnici u Ljubljani, Slovenija) te župna crkva sv. Martina, izvorno srednjovjekovno zdanje, o čemu svjedoči glagoljični natpis iz 1431., i gotička crkva sv. Marije na Škrilinah sa zidnim slikama (freskama) koje je 1474. slikao majstor Vincent iz Kastva (lat. Vincentius de Castua). Te su freske jedan od najvrjednijih radova domaće istarske srednjovjekovne umjetnosti. Poseban će se naglasak staviti na izvore (osobito na neobjavljene zapisnike vizitacija porečkih biskupa tijekom 17. i 18. stoljeća) i historiografiju u pogledu proučavanja Berma i njegove spomeničke te rukopisne baštine s pokušajem davanja odgovora na jedno od ključnih pitanja: kakve su bile političke i crkvene, društveno-gospodarske, a napose kulturne prilike u Bermu u promatranome razdoblju kao preduvjet za razumijevanje mjesta čuvanja i mogućega nastanka pojedinih glagoljičnih rukopisa koji se povezuju s tamošnjom župom. ; Beram is a settlement in central Istria (Croatia) that has existed since the early Middle Ages. Its predominantly Slavic-Croatian character has been verified very early in archival records and documents, as well as in its Glagolitic cultural features. Beram (Vermo in Italian, Verm in German) holds an important place in the study of Mediaeval Istria and Croatian Glagolitism. Though it is a rural area with some urban elements (it was one of the castles of Pazin County, and had e.g. 148 hearths in 1578, with the status of a minor city [Ger. Stätl]), this settlement boasts historical and artistic monuments and a Glagolitic heritage of exceptional importance. Primarily, these consist of Croatian Glagolitic manuscripts (the 15th-century First and Second Missal of Beram and the First and Second Beram Breviary, held at the National and University Library in Ljubljana, Slovenia); the present day parish church of St. Martin, originally from 1431; and the Gothic church of St. Mary on Škrilinah with frescoes painted in 1474 by master Vincent of Kastav (Lat. Vincentius de Castua). These frescoes are among the most valuable works of local Istrian Mediaeval art. In the early modern period (16th to 18th century), Beram was host to both dramatic wartime conflicts (1615-1618) and an attempt at spiritual regeneration by means of Catholic restoration. It is a place that was divided in terms of government during the period under study. While administratively belonging to the Habsburg Monarchy, spiritual authority was exercised by a Venetian subject holding the office of bishop of Poreč. This fact will represent an important obstacle in the spiritual development of both this and other micro-locations in Istria. The paper analyses the cultural, social, and religious circumstances of Beram throughout a period stretching from the Middle Ages to the early modern period. The paper is also based on the existing historiographic literature and an unpublished 17th-century record of pastoral visitations. Special emphasis is placed on the historical perspective of the study of Beram and its sacral and manuscript heritage from the Middle Ages to the early modern period; an interdisciplinary approach to future research and appreciation of this historical region is suggested. A review of published works related to the history of the Catholic Church in Istria is also provided, noting that an overview of the Istrian Church's history in the 16th and 17th centuries has yet to be produced. Details are also provided concerning archival materials from the period found in depositories such as the Diocesan Archives in Poreč, the Diocesan Archives of Trieste, and the Vatican Apostolic Archive, as well as in local parish archives and registers, which were mainly written in Glagolitic. The authors will seek to guide scholars to this rich vein of sources as a basis for future research.
