U ovom se radu istražuju determinante životnog zadovoljstva na uzorku od 135 zemalja. Osnovni se doprinos rada sastoji u ispitivanju osjetljivosti životnog zadovoljstva na okolišne i društvene eksternalije. Rezultati analize, pritom, imaju implikacije i za nosioce javnih politika. Naime, oni pokazuju da neki faktori konzistentno utječu na razinu životnog zadovoljstva građana, bez obzira jesu li okolišne ili društvene eksternalije uključene u analizu. Postoji, međutim, i skup faktora čiji utjecaj na razinu životnog zadovoljstva oscilira ako se spomenute eksternalije uključe u analizu. Rezultati analize također pokazuju da je razina životnog zadovoljstva u tranzicijskim zemljama, uz ostale nepromijenjene uvjete, niža u odnosu na druge zemlje iz uzorka, upućujući na zaključak da u ovim zemljama nisu ostvarena ranija očekivanja građana. ; Using recent cross-country data for 135 nations, this paper examines the determinants of life satisfaction. The main contribution lies in examining the sensitivity of satisfaction to externalities, both social and environmental. Besides contributing to the literature, the findings also have some implications for public policy. The results show that some factors consistently affect life satisfaction whether or not externalities are considered, while others are sensitive to such considerations. Even under each category of spillovers, the influence in satisfaction varies. Further, other things being the same, satisfaction was lower in transition nations, perhaps signifying that these countries were somehow failing to meet the expectations of their citizens.
Sreća, životno zadovoljstvo i druge subjektivne procjene građana o vlastitom životu i percepciji društvenih pojava danas sve više postaju nezaobilazne komponente pri praćenju društvenog razvoja, ravnopravne različitim ekonomskim pokazateljima. Cilj ovog istraživanja bio je prikazati usporedne analize nekih od parametara koji određuju kvalitetu življenja, sreću i životno zadovoljstvo u različitim zemljama Europske Unije te na temelju hrvatskih istraživanja usporediti Sjeverozapadni dio u odnosu na ostale dijelove Hrvatske. Podaci koji su korišteni za usporedne analize u EU preuzeti su iz istraživanja Eurobarometar iz 2015. godine u kojem su provedena istraživanja u 28 zemalja članica EU i nekoliko zemalja kandidata. Za usporedbe unutar Hrvatske korišteni su podaci istraživanja Pilarov barometar hrvatskog društva, koje je provedeno u proljeće 2015. godine na reprezentativnom uzorku hrvatskih građana (N=1000). Za usporedbe Sjeverozapadne u odnosu na ostale dijelove Hrvatske uzorak je podijeljen na dva dijela: (1) stanovnike Krapinsko-zagorske, Zagrebačke, Varaždinske, Međimurske i Koprivničko-križevačke županije (N=196) i (2) stanovnike ostalih dijelova Hrvatske (N=804). Statistička značajnost razlika u pojedinim parametrima računala se t-testom. Usporedbe kvalitete življenja u Hrvatskoj i zemljama članicama EU (EU28) pokazale su da građani Hrvatske procjenjuju niže od europskog prosjeka svoje životno zadovoljstvo, financijsko stanje kućanstava, općenitu kvalitetu življenja te iskazuju niže razine povjerenje u državne institucije (vlada, parlament, pravosuđe, regionalne/lokalne vlasti). Osobito su niske bile razine povjerenja u regionalne i/ili lokalne vlasti gdje je Hrvatska zauzela zadnje mjesto unutar zemalja EU28. Jedini parametar koji je bio procijenjen iznad europskog prosjeka bila su očekivanja o financijskoj situaciji u idućih godinu dana, gdje su hrvatski građani iskazali iznadprosječni optimizam. Rezultati usporedbe različitih parametara kvalitete življenja između stanovnika sjeverozapadne i ostalih dijelova Hrvatske pokazali su da su stanovnici Sjeverozapadne Hrvatske zadovoljniji svojim životom, zadovoljniji odnosima u obitelji i među prijateljima, osjećajem pripadnosti svojoj okolini i osjećajem sigurnosti u budućnosti. Također, u odnosu na ostale dijelove Hrvatske iskazali su više razine povjerenja u pravosuđe, policiju, školstvo, crkvu, zdravstvo i EU parlament. Ovakvi rezultati upućuju na zaključak da je općenita razina kvalitete življenja u nekim aspektima viša u Sjeverozapadnoj, nego u ostalim dijelovima Hrvatske. ; Together with economic indices, happiness, life satisfaction and other subjective perceptions about quality of life and various societal processes in contemporary world became unavoidable in monitoring nation's social progress. The aim of this study was to compare several parameters that determine quality of life and life satisfaction between citizens of Croatia and other countries in the European Union (EU28). The second aim was to compare within Croatia the same parameters between citizens of North-West region and the rest of Croatia. The data for comparisons between Croatia and EU28 were based on the Eurobarometer survey conducted in 2015 in all countries of EU and several candidate countries. The data for comparisons within Croatia were based on the survey Pilar's barometer of Croatian society, which was conducted in spring of 2015 on the representative sample of Croatian citizens (N=1000). For the purposes of these analyses the sample was devided into: (1) citizens of Krapina-Zagorje, Zagreb, Varaždin, Međimurje and Koprivnica-Križevci counties (N=196) and (2) citizens of the other regions of Croatia (N=804). Statistical differences were determined by t-test analyses. The comparisons of quality of liofe indices between Croatia and EU28 showed that citizens of Croatia rated their life satisfaction, financial situation in households, general quality of life and trust in various institutions (government, parliament, justice, regional/local authorities) lower than EU28 averages. Especially low citizens rated their trust in local/regional authorities, where Croatia was at the last position within EU28. The only parameter which was rated above EU28 average were expectations about financial situation in one year, where Croatian citizens showed higher optimism than EU28 average. Comparisons within Croatia showed that citizens of North-West region of Croatia expressed higher levels of life satisfaction, satisfaction with family and friends, satisfaction with their feelings of acceptance by the community and feelings of safety in the future. Besides that, citizens of North-West region of Croatia showed higher levels of trust in justice, police, education system, church, health care and EU parliament than the citizens in other regions of Croatia. These results indicate that quality of life in North-West region of Croatia is somewhat higher in several components than in other parts of Croatia.
Ovom se studijom nastoje rekonstruirati osobitosti glazbene kulture u Mostaru u prvoj polovini XX. stoljeća, njezine vrste, ishodišta i značenje u kontinuitetu, s težištem na institucionalno organiziranoj glazbenoj praksi i njezinoj povezanosti sa širim društvenim kontekstom. Pristup što ga je nametnuo tako postavljeni istraživački cilj obuhvaća predstavljanje glazbene stvaranosti u okviru kulturne, ali i političke povijesti izabrana vremena, čiji je rezultat u najvećoj mjeri i bila. U polju autonomnoga, glazba do sredine XX. stoljeća gotovo da i nije postojala jer se funkcionalno povezivala s oblicima svijesti i načinima života sredine čiju su zbilju obilježile mijene režima, stranačka trvenja vlasti i vladara, gospodarske, političke i kulturološke razlike ostavivši zamjetne tragove u njezinu povijesnome hodu. Stoga se pristup glazbi kao dijelu cjelokupnoga društveno- političkog i kulturnoga života činio jedino ispravnim. Predložena građa može se promotriti kao mozaična cjelina satkana od dijelova što predočuju mjesta i oblike muziciranja, djelovanje istaknutih pjevačkih društava, amaterskih i profesionalnih glazbenih udruženja, školstva i organiziranih manifestacija preko kojih je glazba živjela u gradu Mostaru. ; This article was intended to reconstruct the peculiarities of the Mostar's musical culture in the first half of the 20th century, its species, starting points and meaning in the continuity, emphasizing the institutional organized musical practice and its connection with larger social context. The approach that was imposed by purpose of research includes the presentation of the musical reality whithin the cultural and political history of the determinated period, whose result in the larger part it was. In the field of the autonomous, music until the middle of 20.th century almost it has not existed, because it has been connecting functionally with the kindes of the conscience and living ways of the enviroment whose reality was determinated by regime changes, political party conflicts, economical, political and cultural differences leaving the significant tracks in its historical continuity. Because of that, the approach to music as the part of the entire socio-political and cultural life seemed to be the only correct one. The proposed material can be observed as the mosaic whole made of the parts presenting the localities and forms of the music practice, the activites of prominent choral societies, amateur and professional musical societies, the education and organized manifestations by which music has lived in Mostar.
U vremenu neposredno nakon ukidanja Vojne krajine 1881. godine i pripojenja ovoga teritorija Hrvatskoj pojavljuju se prve novine na teritoriju tadašnje Ličkokrbavske županije koja je ustrojena 1886. godine. Vrijeme nakon ukidanja Vojne krajine je vrijeme prilagodbe civilnom načinu života poslije vremena kada je ovaj teritorij predstavljao branu turskim prodorima u Hrvatsku. U takvim okolnostima gospodarske prilike i društveni život bili su prilagođeni vojničkom načinu razmišljanja. Ukidanjem Vojne krajine 15. srpnja 1881. godine ona je pripojena Kraljevini Hrvatskoj i Slavoniji kao autonomnoj pokrajini koja je imala obilježja državnosti u sastavu Zemalja krune sv. Stjepana. U Kraljevini Hrvatskoj i Slavoniji kao dijelu Austro-Ugarske što je određeno Austro-ugarskom nagodbom od 1867. godine i pod vlašću Franje Josipa I. (1848. – 1916.) otvara se mogućnost za stvaranje županija na tom teritoriju, a samim time i Ličko – krbavske županije. Tema ovoga rada je prikaz stanja u Ličko-krbavskoj županiji i posebno u njenom središtu, Gospiću, na prijelazu iz 19. u 20 stoljeće. Prije svega gospodarskih prilika, ali i društvenog i kulturnog života, odnosno uvjeta u kojima se pojavljuju prve novine koje su i glavni izvor informacija za ovaj rad. ; In the time immediately after the abolition of the Military Frontier in 1881 and the annexation of this territory to Croatia, the first newspapers appeared on the territory of the former Lika-Krbava County, which was established in 1886. The time after the abolition of the Military Frontier is the time of adjustment to the civilian way of life, after the time when this territory represented a barrier to Turkish incursions into Croatia. In such circumstances, economic and social life were adjusted to the military way of thinking. With the abolition of the Military Frontier on July 15, 1881, it was annexed to the Kingdom of Croatia and Slavonia as an autonomous province that had the characteristics of statehood within the Lands of the Crown of St. Stephen. In the Kingdom of Croatia and Slavonia as part of Austro-Hungary, which was determined by the Austro-Hungarian Agreement in 1867 and under the rule of Franz Joseph I (1848-1916), the possibility was opened for the creation of counties on that territory, and thus for the Lika – Krbava County. The theme of this paper is a review of the situation in Lika -Krbava County and especially in its center, Gospić, at the transition from the 19th to 20th century. First of all, economic opportunities, but also social and cultural life, ie the conditions in which the first newspapers appear, which are the main source of information for this work.
U radu se nastoji pokazati kakva je bila uloga pripadnica gradske elite u zagrebačkome Gradecu. Upozorava se da su, iako direktno nisu sudjelovale u gradskoj vlasti, bile usko povezane s njezinim nositeljima. Govori se o njihovoj ulozi u prijenosu vlasništva i društvenoga ugleda kao i stvaranju političkih veza te time i formiranju gradske elite. ; Although women in medieval towns could not participate neither in the city government nor in the election of the city officers, they had influence in the shaping of the urban elite, as is demonstrated in this article on the example of Zagreb Gradec. Women in the medieval city of Zagreb were able to obtain the full right citizenship, which allowed them certain privileges. Besides that, they were treated equally to male heirs according to the inheritance law. They were also treated equally in many other aspects of the urban life such as trade or in the city court. Some women were among the richest inhabitants of the city community, as were Francisca Donati, Margareta Rybarica, Katarina, the widow of Sigismund Mauri, or Katarina Soldinar. Furthemore, the usual way of integration of the new members of the urban elite was marriage into a family which already belonged to the urban elite, whether by marrying a daughter of the prominent citizen who was a judge or a juror, or by marrying a widow of the former member of the elite. Good marriage often proved to be more useful for political climb than regular kinship ties by blood. In that way, prominent women played a great role in the integration or consolidation of the urban elite.
