Kult ličnosti vladara, veličanje monarhijske moći, uzdizanje istaknutih pojedinaca na herojski i božanski pijedestal socijalni su fenomeni prisutni kod razvijenih civilizacija još od davnih vremena. Rimski carski kult, religijsko-politička institucija utemeljena na identificiranju i štovanju cara kao božanstva te propagiranju carske moći, služio je kao instrument za jačanje rimske vlasti te romanizaciju novoosvojenih područja Rimskog Carstva. Dok su u središtu štovanja prije svega bili rimski carevi, važan element u propagiranju carske ideologije činile su i njihove supruge, ali i drugi članovi vladajuće obitelji. Unatoč tomu što nisu uživale jednaka prava kao njihovi muževi, rimske su carice ipak aktivno, ali i indirektno, sudjelovale u javnim i političkim događanjima te se koristile privilegijama svojeg društvenog statusa kako bi doprinjele oblikovanju carske vlasti i rimskog društva. Time će se ovaj rad na temelju dosadašnjih spoznaja o sociopolitičkim i religijskim karakteristikama carskog kulta ukratko osvrnuti na društvenu i političku moć najutjecajnijih rimskih carica i princeza s naglaskom na štovanje njihova kulta na tlu provincije Dalmacije od vremena julijevsko-klaudijevske dinastije do 315. godine. ; The personality cult of the ruler, glorification of monarchical power and placing of prominent individuals on a heroic and divine pedestal were social phenomena present in developed civilisations from ancient times. The Roman imperial cult, a religious and political institution based on identifying and worshipping the emperor as a deity and promoting imperial power, served as an instrument for strengthening Roman rule and romanising the newly conquered territories of the Roman Empire. While the focus of worship was primarily Roman emperors, important in propagating imperial ideology were also their wives, as well as other members of the ruling family. Despite not enjoying the same rights as their spouses, Roman empresses nevertheless actively, as well as indirectly, participated in public and political events and used the privileges of their social status to contribute to the shaping of imperial power and Roman society. Drawing on previous research of the social, political and religious characteristics of the imperial cult, this paper will briefly review the social and political power of the most influential Roman empresses and princesses, with an emphasis on the devotion to their cult in the Province of Dalmatia from the Julio-Claudian dynasty to AD 315.

The aim of this article has been to provide an insight into Croatian waste tyres market, which is assumed to be the source of significant eco-innovation. At the outset, the analysis of relevant literature has been done regarding the circular economy and eco-innovations. The empirical part of the study used the Strength-Weaknesses-Opportunities-Threats method in order to determine the perspective of the main market stakeholders. In the course of the SWOT method conducting, an in-depth interview was organized with managers of the only authorized mechanical recycling company in Croatia and an on-line questionnaire was used to learn about thinking and attitudes of other ELT market stakeholders in Croatia – representatives of the Ministry of Environmental Protection and Energy, Environmental Protection and Energy Efficiency Fund, Agency for the Environment and the Nature, authorized ELT collectors, Croatian scholars involved in previous waste rubber scientific studies as well as representatives of companies either using or selling rubber recyclate. Additionally, comparison to the European context has been conducted. Findings suggest that Croatian legislation and practice follow European trends: collection rate of waste tyres is near 100 %, and the total collected amount is being recycled – 83 % as the secondary raw material and 17 % as energy recovery. However, situational analysis detected that underdeveloped industrial production hinders seizing the full potential of produced raw material, thus missing the opportunity of generating the higher added value for the domestic economy. Consequently, Croatia's Eco Innovation Index was by 28 % lower than the EU average in 2017.

U radu se pokušava istražiti učestalost konceptualnih metafora u političkome diskursu u poslijedejtonskome razdoblju u Bosni i Hercegovini, pokazati kako se političari koriste metaforama kako bi uvjerili ciljani "auditorij" u ispravnost svojih stavova, ideja, postupaka i namjera te ispitati je li konceptualna metafora uistinu najčešća i najsnažnija vrsta metafora u političkome diskursu. Drugim riječima, nastojat će se dokazati da je metafora vrlo živa u svakodnevnome govoru te da ima iznimno važnu ulogu u konceptualizaciji svijeta koji nas okružuje, dok političarima služi za uvjeravanje i propagandu u političkome retoričkom jeziku. Istraživanje je usmjereno na razdoblje žustrih rasprava o tzv. Travanjskome paketu ustavnih promjena – ožujak – travanj 2006. godine. ; The paper aims to explore frequency of conceptual metaphors in political discourse of the post-Dayton era in Bosnia and Herzegovina, prove that politicians use metaphors to convince the target "auditorium" that their views, ideas, procedures and acts are correct and check if conceptual metaphor is really the most often and the most powerful type of metaphor used in the political discourse. In other words the paper will try to prove that metaphor is present in everyday speech and that it has a very important role in conceptualization of the world around us, while politicians use it for convincing and propaganda in political rhetorical language. The research covers period characterized by intense discussions about the so-called April package of constitutional changes – March-April 2006.

"The Making of a Dialogical Theory Creating a stimulating social theory with long-lasting influence for generations of scholars is driven by multiple interacting factors. The fortune of a theory is determined not only by the author's creative mind, but also by the ways in which principal concepts are understood and interpreted. The proper understanding of a social theory requires a good grasp of major historical, political, and cultural challenges that contribute to its making. Considering these issues, Marková explores Serge Moscovici's theory of social representations and communication as a case study in the making of a dialogical social theory. She analyses both the undeveloped features and the forward-moving, inspirational highlights of the theory and presents them as a resource for linking issues and problems from diverse domains and disciplines. This dialogical approach has the potential to advance the dyad Self-Other as an irreducible intellectual, ethical, and aesthetic unit in epistemologies of the human and social sciences. Ivana Marková was born in Czechoslovakia and is now Professor Emeritus in Psychology at the University of Stirling, UK. Previous books include The Making of Modern Social Psychology (with Serge Moscovici, Polity Press, 2006), Dialogicality and Social Representations (Cambridge University Press, 2003), and The Dialogical Mind: Common Sense and Ethics (Cambridge University Press, 2016). She is a Fellow of the British Academy, the Royal Society of Edinburgh, and the British Psychological Society"--
