The teacher`s profession represents one of the most important and the most human professions. With their work, teachers influence on lives and development of their students importantly, and if affinities, abilities, and personalities of students will be developed in their full capacity depending on the teacher in a significant way. Through their personality, their knowledge, motivation, their competencies teachers influence the effectiveness of the whole educational process. On the other side, the success of an adult and its contribution to the development of any society depends on such effectiveness. Teachers` competencies development depends on their talent, wish, and readiness for permanent professional learning. The tempo of the technologies’ development today will require more and more adoption of changes which will, consequently, come in the educational process. So, this article aims to direct the analysis of the role of teachers` competencies and their professional development.

This paper explores the portrayal of violence and gender in its relation to different historical periods, countries, cultures, and religions. The aim is to determine the role these different aspects have in forming of characters’ identities and more specifically how it is all related to gender. The research will focus on Toni Morrison’s A Mercy, Elena Ferrante’s Tetralogy My Brilliant Friend, and Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie’s Purple Hibiscus. All three novels, regardless of the different periods they fictionalize and discuss, and the literature they belong to, are connected by the captivating darkness that runs deeply through their fictional fiber and portrays the horrible conditions and struggles women have to go through because of the violence they were succumbed to, but also the violence they have to resort to to survive and even thrive in the ever-changing, but always firmly men’s world. Morrison’s novel is set in the early stages of the slave trade in America when racial, religious, and class tensions were just beginning to form, Ferrante’s tetralogy focuses on the post-WWII Italy, poverty-stricken and violent neighborhoods of the outskirts of Naples, and Purple Hibiscus is set in postcolonial Nigeria, a country struggling with political instability and economic difficulties. All three authors with their respective novels render vibrant pictures of the lives of young girls and grown women, mothers, daughters, and friends, across times, countries, but also classes, that offer plenty of space for comparative research focusing on the presence and role of violence in their lives.

The paper presents the results of comparative empirical research conducted among social work students (N=146), who were grouped into two subsamples: students from the Australian College of Applied Psychology, Sydney and Melbourne (N= 71), and students from Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH) from the Universities of Banja Luka, Tuzla and Sarajevo (N=75). The subject of the research was the values in social work that determine the professional attitude and ways of intervening towards the users of the social protection system, among social work students in two different educational, cultural, and social-political environments (Australia and Bosnia and Herzegovina). The goal of the research was to determine whether there are differences in the attitudes and opinions of students about the values of social work, professional attitudes, and actions towards users of the social protection system, about the country of study and residence. The research was carried out using the research method (survey technique), for the needs of which a specially prepared instrument - Questionnaire (ORiSR/April 2020) was created, which examined students' attitudes about the professional relationship and measures of treatment towards users of social work services. The obtained results confirmed the assumed hypothesis that there are significant differences in students' attitudes regarding the place of study, that is, the different cultural and social circumstances in which future social workers are educated. Differences were observed in the evaluation of individual measures and forms of protection for users of social work services. Students from Bosnia and Herzegovina believe that adoption and foster care are preferable forms of protection for children without parental care, while the majority of students from Australia think that the adoption of children in same-sex unions should be allowed. Also, the obtained results showed that, even though the views of students from Australia and Bosnia and Herzegovina differ on some values of social work, essential differences were not observed in the values related to satisfying the primary interest of the user, subordinating personal principles to the values of social work and social activism of social work in the community.

This paper deals with an overview of the development of the philosophy of science in Croatia. The philosophy of science deals with the problems of the natural sciences seeks the meaning of science, and rationally looks at science from different aspects as its material object. In Croatia, the philosophy of science developed as in other European nations, therefore inseparable from the development of natural sciences and the social context. The paper presents some of the most significant representatives of philosophers and events that influenced the development of the philosophy of science in Croatia.

Placement in a social protection institution for children without (adequate) parental care is one form of social protection for children who need care. In the Republic of Srpska, by the Law on Social Protection, social institutions are established by the Republic of Srpska. For children without (adequate) parents who need placement in the Republic of Srpska, there is one social institution in which children and youth are provided with housing, food, clothing, assistance in education and training for work, care, health care, and other needs fulfillment. This paper presents the results of the research on the subjective assessment of aspects of the quality of life in a social institution for children without (adequate) parental care. The concept of quality of life is theoretically elaborated through subjective theories of quality of life. Quality of life was observed and measured as a multidimensional construct that refers to the physical, psychological, social, and behavioral components of children and youth placed in a social welfare institution. The method of content analysis was used to collect and analyze data, as well as in the empirical part of the research when processing and interpreting the research findings. Data were collected by the survey method with the use of a questionnaire instrument (KIDSCREEN-27). For data processing and analysis, different statistical methods were used. The results showed that children and youth placed in a social institution for children without (adequate) parental care in the Republic of Srpska rate all five examined aspects of life positively. Most of the aspects were rated as satisfactory. The overall mean value rating for all aspects is 3.52, which is an encouraging finding, due to the permanent need for residential placement for children without (adequate) parental care.

When we talk about education, we usually mean planned influences that are exerted on the student to develop all his potential on the one hand. On the other hand, the question arises whether there are unintended influences in the education process, whether their outcome is positive or negative, and whether pedagogy also deals with such spontaneous, unintended processes. Therefore, the goal of this research was to examine and analyze the views of pedagogues, associate and scientific-teaching professions on the nature of the influence that is realized within the framework of education. The sample has the characteristics of a deliberate and convenient sample, and it is composed of pedagogues with associate and scientific-teaching titles from two public universities in the Republic of Srpska. The paper used the method of theoretical analysis and descriptive statistics, and of the techniques, the survey technique. The results show that pedagogues, associate, and scientific-teaching professions under education imply a synthesis of intentional and unintentional influences on the student, only a small number of pedagogues consider that the term functional education is inadequate for what it represents and do not give suggestions for its redefinition. The pedagogues think that the (un)intentionality of education is still a current and open question of pedagogy, but not a fundamental one. In the context of the environment, they believe that the family community is a synthesis of intentional and unintentional influence, and the same integrations are not renounced in the institutional environment as well as in the educational activities that took place even in the pre-civilization period. The results can serve as an initial investigation of the phenomenon of (un)intentionality in education and serve as a basis for further quantitatively and qualitatively larger research, but also for the theoretical foundations of all those who in any way discuss the theoretical issues of general pedagogy.

The results of the analyses show that in addition to the differences that exist between different disciplines, there is generally a trend of an increase in the number of researches conducted as a team and a decrease in the number of individually conducted research. Therefore, the paper aimed to look at the possibilities, assumptions, and challenges of achieving an interdisciplinary approach to basic, developmental, and applied research in didactics using the method of theoretical analysis and synthesis. Basic research is applied not only in didactics, but also in disciplines closely related to didactics (psychology, sociology, philosophy, cybernetics...) and forms the basis for establishing didactic regularities, and has the task of determining didactic knowledge of capital value and significantly influences the development of didactic theories, educational and teaching practices in all types and levels of schools and other educational institutions and forms of organized learning and teaching. An interdisciplinary approach to developmental research, which refers to the investigation of the regularities of the application of research results obtained through basic research, can directly contribute to the improvement of didactic theory and practice. Through applied didactic research of an interdisciplinary character, researchers find solutions for specific practical questions and problems of educational and teaching practice in certain conditions based on known didactic knowledge. Certain assumptions and challenges in the realization of interdisciplinary research in didactics aim to ensure methodological competence, scientific objectivity, and the integration of several disciplines. In the concluding remarks, it was emphasized that research methodology in didactics that has an interdisciplinary approach is not realized in isolation, but in dynamic and creative cooperation with other disciplines. With integrated basic, developmental, and applied didactic research of an interdisciplinary character, we contribute to the development of scientific theory and progressive changes in teaching practice and the educational process in general.

Over time, the societies’ relation towards people with disability has changed its course, due to the influence of scientific knowledge, as well as the influence of artistic representation of disability. Cinema is a globally present medium, so the question of its influence on the attitudes of society has emerged. In this paper, overall 20 movies in which the main character has a disability have been analyzed. The analysis shows the dominance of disabled male characters. The main characters often have motoric impairment, followed by mental disorders, and intellectual disability. Mental disorders are in analyzed movies portrayed with aggressive behavior (e. g. violence). The movies are mostly mainstream, and profit-driven. Implications are multiple: there is a need to construct inclusive cinematography – (sub)discipline within the media culture, which could adequately address the question of social stigma and social marginalization of people with disabilities, which is at this point globally present in current media (movies and series). Also, there is a need for the introduction of critical content in media culture within the education curriculums, as well as a need for promoting alternative cinema, as adequate media for promoting inclusive values.

The paper analyzes the discursive strategies of apparent empathy and ideological polarization that were used to legitimize discrimination against covered female students in the Republic of Turkey. We approached this complex social problem from the point of view of critical discourse analysis, which represents an interdisciplinary research area centered on the interest in researching the manipulative use of language. The ban on wearing headscarves in universities in Turkey was the fruit of the Kemalist conception of modernism and hegemony established by the Kemalist elites. An important role in preserving that hegemony was also played by the media, whose primary goal was to legitimize social injustice and protect the social order based on an asymmetric distribution of power. They performed this role of the media through the manipulative use of language within clearly recognizable discursive strategies, which was shown by the analysis of the newspaper text that is the subject of this paper.

They performed this role of the media through the manipulative use of language within clearly recognizable discursive strategies, which was shown by the analysis of the newspaper text that is the subject of this paper.","PeriodicalId":33261,"journal":{"name":"Drustvene i Humanisticke Studije","volume":"38 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135364204","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}

When talking about the rule of law as a contemporary constitutional and theoretical principle, most of the public usually refers to the period of the emergence of theoretical models that tend to the modern understanding of the organization of the state, legal order, and society, from the period of the Enlightenment to the period of various theoretical concepts of the modern era. However, as it is known in the domain of constitutional theory, ideas concerning the concept and purpose of government, the constitution, laws and legislation, rights and obligations, legality and legitimacy, and all other categories that constitute elements of the principle of the rule of law (as it is understood today) – as a very complex notion, have been the subject of consideration since the earliest times, at the very beginnings of the development of the philosophical-legal thought. The purpose of this paper, by its capacity and scope, is not contained in the elaboration of all theoretical models regarding elements that make the content of the rule of law which appeared during the historical development of human civilization – which would otherwise be an impossible task, but in the elaboration of some characteristic theoretical considerations during ancient and medieval period in which the beginnings of the idea of the rule of law can be found as well as the very beginnings of the development of that idea in contemporary sense.
