The theoretical part of the paper conceptual-izes the contemporary socio-economic context of the quality of life and work in agriculture in Croatian rural areas, with a special emphasis on young people as key drivers of rural development. By operationalizing selected objective and subjective aspects of the quality of life, a qual-itative research was conducted using the method of semi-structured interviews with ten young farmers from family-run farms in these two counties. Bjelovar-Bilogora and Požega-Slavonia are two agriculturally strong neighbouring counties in North Croatia, one with higher and one with lower population density. The interviews encompassed questions about the advantages and disadvantages as well as obstacles and challenges faced by young farmers who are living in rural areas and working in agriculture, and their assessment of the satisfaction with rural life and future perspectives. The interviewees said the advantages of living in rural areas included personal ownership of house and land, fresh air, natural surroundings, peace and quiet, healthy life, and freedom. The disadvantages were mainly seen in poor infrastructure. The positive sides of being employed in agriculture were “being your own boss”, “working from home”, job security, autonomy in deciding upon your work hours, heterogeneity of different jobs within the occupation, possi-bility of progress and development, and healthy working environment. The negative sides were lack of popularity of this occupation, lack of time, dependency on external climate factors, large quantity of workload, instability of prices, and uncertainty that comes with this kind of agricultural production. The biggest obstacles for working in agriculture according to young farmers on family-run farms were administrative obstacles, lack of sufficient areas of land, cor-ruption, and nepotism.","PeriodicalId":39267,"journal":{"name":"Sociologija i Prostor","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-11-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45130086","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Adamović","doi":"10.5673/sip.59.2.1","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.5673/sip.59.2.1","url":null,"abstract":"After the earthquakes that hit Zagreb and Petrinja, the post-earthquake reconstruction and renewal of apartments and buildings became a key topic in the City of Zagreb and in the area of central Croatia. In the process of planning the post-earthquake rehabilitation and renewal, the involvement of residents is emphasized as one of the key factors of its success. Bearing that in mind, the research was conducted using the qualitative method of semi-structured interviews on a sample of apartment owners and representatives of co-owners in Zagreb’s Donji grad (N = 27). The paper presents the respondents’ opinions on the type of sustained damage and difficulties they encounter regarding the efficiency of the city and state government institu-tions. The research further indicates the problems within the buildings, including insufficient maintenance fees and (dis)satisfaction with the representatives of co-owners and managers of the buildings. The results show that the rehabilitation of buildings is slow and the whole renovation process is not in line with the expectations of respondents. Despite subsidies and the adoption of the Reconstruction Act, tenants will have to rely significantly on their own finances, despite the co-financing opportunities. Regarding the project of the complete city centre renewal after the earthquake, residents expect careful planning that combines residential and commercial development, balances the old and the new and preserves the city identity. They also expect the renewal that contributes to sustainable living conditions in the city centre, meets the citizens’ needs and raises the quality of living, avoiding the increasingly radical processes of touristification, apartmanisation and emigration from the city core.","PeriodicalId":39267,"journal":{"name":"Sociologija i Prostor","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-11-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49156345","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

According to the 2011 census, Slovenes in Zagreb number 2132 people, which is about 1/5 of all Slovenes in Croatia. Today, the Slovenian national minority in Croatia is the oldest national minority in Croatia. The average number of years according to the 2011 census was 59.7. This fact does not help Slovenian societies in Croatia, which have a very old membership. Preservation of national identity among Slovenes in Croatia is present primarily through the nurturing of the Slovene language, while the younger generations are more sus-ceptible to assimilation (especially those born in ethnically mixed marriages).

The elements of natural and cultural heritage that can be valorized in tourism were evaluated and the current state of tourism in the municipality was analyzed based on the statistical data and fieldwork. A survey was also conducted to find out the opinion of the local population on various aspects of tourism development in the Šestanovac Municipality. The results indicate that the number of tourists visiting Šestanovac is not large, but it is continuously increasing. So far, the most developed form of tourism is rural tourism on small family farms and in holiday homes and adventure tourism that takes place in the Cetina River Canyon, on Biokovo Mountain, and on cycling trails. The tangible and intangible cultural heritage is not yet sufficiently valorized and should be included more in the tourist offer. The local population believes that tourism can play a big role in the future economic development of the municipality and generally positively perceives everything that is happening concerning tourism in Šestanovac.","PeriodicalId":39267,"journal":{"name":"Sociologija i Prostor","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-04-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48086729","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Geographical Patterns and Geo-Economic Reasoning of the Pandemic Consequences: Old Geopolitical “Games” in the Post-COVID Global Order","authors":"Marta Zorko, Josip Lučev","doi":"10.5673/SIP.59.0.4","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.5673/SIP.59.0.4","url":null,"abstract":"The research provides a two-type analysis of the consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic on the global world order after 2020. The first dimension of analysis is oriented towards geopolitical parameters, while the second is based on the geo-economic consequences of the pandemic crisis. The authors identified and classified three types of geopolitical games in the international community: The game of non-movement and labeling;the game of vaccine racing and the game of securitization. Furthermore, the goal is to identify potential consequences for the economy of certain countries, but also the postulates of international political economy due to the contemporary geographical, political and economic patterns of behavior in a global pandemic crisis. The main thesis is aimed at confirming predictable and common patterns of behavior that are accompanied by tested mechanisms of attempts to exercise power in the international community (classical geopolitical power games in the new conditions). The aim of this paper is to develop scenarios of potential changes in power relations at the global level and to analyse the consequences with regard to the outcomes of the three mentioned games. Scenario analysis is a common geopolitical qualitative method most commonly used to assess risk in different spheres of society. Large corporations are using it most often in calculating financial fluctuations in business processes and decision-making, but it also appears in a number of projections in industrial-technological processes and in American institutes. The methodology is similar in the cases of financial scenario analysis, while in other social sciences (primarily geopolitics and security studies) it is about discovering potential and alternative worlds. In geopolitics, it serves to project potential developments in the global environment with regard to the creation of new world orders, and phenomena that can change the predicted outcomes of reality. While analyses of new world orders can also be attributed to methods of prediction in international relations;in contrast, scenario analyses are more than forecasts of developments based on past trends. They primarily include considerations of unpredictable factors or reversals in international relations, where a global pandemic is certainly one of them. © 2021 Institut za društvena istraživanja u Zagrebu – Institute for Social Research in Zagreb Sva prava pridržana – All rights reserved.","PeriodicalId":39267,"journal":{"name":"Sociologija i Prostor","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47260630","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Prilog istraživanju antimaskerske reakcije tijekom pandemije bolesti COVID-19 u Hrvatskoj","authors":"Branko Ančić, Dražen Cepić","doi":"10.5673/SIP.59.0.7","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.5673/SIP.59.0.7","url":null,"abstract":"Since the very beginning of the COVID-19 disease pandemic there have been alternative nar-ratives, not only in virtual spaces, but also as part of official explanations given by social actors relevant for managing the pandemic crisis. As a reaction to the disease spread, authorities eve-rywhere introduced quarantine measures, obligatory adherence to epidemiological measures, and economic lockdown, which led to protests against the measures in a number of cities worldwide, such as Berlin, London, Brussels, Dublin, Madrid, Paris, Rotter¬dam, even Zagreb (so-called anti-mask protests) during the summer and throughout the autumn and winter of 2020. In this paper, the notion of anti-mask attitude is viewed as a social phenomenon imply-ing not only a mere fact of not wearing a mask as an act of violating epidemiological measures, but also the reaction of people during the pandemic. This reaction is comprised of the percep-tion diminishing the danger of the SARS-CoV-2 virus or even denying its existence, along with the assessment that the imposed epidemiological measures are oppressive (too stringent). The theoretical framework of the paper is based on literature on conspiracy theories as an overarch-ing concept that helps understand the anti-mask movements. In the analysis, the data gathered by a questionnaire survey (CATI technique) during August, September and October 2020 on a nationally representative sample (N=1512) were used. In the paper, some determinants of inclination towards conspiracy theories were analysed as possible explanatory determinants of the anti-masker social reaction. The analysis pointed to two aspects appearing as key for understanding the anti-masker social reaction – existential conditions and the changes of these conditions due to the pandemic, and trust in relevant social actors’ / institutions’ management of the COVID-19 disease induced crises.","PeriodicalId":39267,"journal":{"name":"Sociologija i Prostor","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48168733","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While these measures were arguably successful in preventing the potential dire consequences of an uncontrolled pandemic, they also deeply influenced societies at the micro-, meso- and macrolevels. They disturbed interaction ritual chains, the building blocks of social reality as conceived in Randal Collins’ interaction ritual theory. This article identifies and discusses the social effects of lockdowns, quarantines and isolation measures. It addresses interruptions of interaction ritual chains and consequent problems in building up emotional energy and their impact on overall solidarity; the sustainability of economic classes as circuits of monetary exchange; the consequences of closed interaction ritual markets; the disturbance of the interaction ritual structure, the loss of emotional energy, rising violence in isolated households; as well as the consequences of isolation in one-person households. The article also addresses micro and meso-level strategies for coping with lockdown and isolation, particularly the potential of computer-mediated interactions to substitute face-to-face interaction; ability of emotionally entrained mass audiences to sustain overall solidarity through creating new “sacred objects”; and the emergence of negative emotional energy within previously energised groups and a consequent defiance to introduced measures.","PeriodicalId":39267,"journal":{"name":"Sociologija i Prostor","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46641591","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
