This article critically examines the governance of the COVID-19 pandemic in Croatia, focusing on the interrogation of (r-e)merging forms of governance amid perpetual crises. Our analysis dissects governmental strategies that formed a state of exception while derailing from the constitutional framing of a state of emergency. This intentional deviation served to re-solidify the intertwining politics of ethno-nationalism and securitization, rooted in a long trajectory of Croatian emergency governance, from the 1990s onwards. Moreover, the article scrutinizes the effects of governance during the pandemic on migrants and other minoritized populations. Through two case studies, we look into inequalities reproduced against racially, ethnically, culturally, and class-wise different social groups. Finally, we conclude with a discussion of crisis governance in a context of uncertain futurities.

Ovaj članak analizira položaj osoba s odobrenom međunarodnom zaštitom, s ‎posebnim osvrtom na iskustvo njihova zapošljavanja, odnosno stjecanja ekonomske sigurnosti. Ekonomska sigurnost i neovisnost pretpostavka su i temelj ‎uspješne integracije osoba s odobrenom međunarodnom zaštitom u društvo. ‎Ipak, unatoč mogućnostima predviđenima zakonskim rješenjima, rijetki slučajevi zapošljavanja i nedostatna ekonomska sigurnost osoba s međunarodnom zaštitom među ključnim su problemima u njihovoj integraciji. Ovaj članak donosi pregled relevantne literature u području zapošljavanja izbjeglica, ‎studiju slučaja integracijskog programa jedne nevladine organizacije, preporuke koje se tiču unaprjeđenja politike zapošljavanja izbjeglica te daje doprinos raspravi o donošenju useljeničke politike s naglaskom na socio-ekonomska prava i prilike za kvalitetnu integraciju izbjeglica i migranata‎‎

This article explores the historical development of youth work in Croatia. By drawing from available data and personal experience, we describe three key phases of youth work development in a post-conflict country: (a) the period of the early 1990s as a "direct peace building" youth work; (b) the rise of nonformal education during the mid and late 1990s; and (c) the growth of a networked youth sector and its focus on youth policy advocacy starting in 2000. In addition, we refer to today's context, particularly because of its project-management orientation. Such categorization highlights various practices that we consider to represent youth work in a specific and contested national framework. Work with young people with fewer opportunities is being presented as a case, building on our observation that contemporary youth work continues to be embedded in civil society development and nonformal education, facing challenges of funding-driven discourse and unsystematic support.
