The main goal of the paper is to investigate the forms of labor relations in institutional, subsidized theatres in Serbia. Given the social and economic crises, and today significant changes in the lifestyles of citizens of the world caused by the Corona virus pandemic, theatre institutions had to adapt to new market demands. Reduced production, inability to play large ensemble performances, problems in paying copyright contracts are some of the features of the work of theatre organizations. Having these turbulent circumstances, the subject of the paper should determine the influence of social circumstances on the formation of working relations in institutional theatres in Serbia. The paper will look at labor relations in the context of transitional cultural policy and the impact of the environment on defining the most optimal form of employment that should meet the needs of the state, city, municipality, as founders and financiers of the theatre organization, the needs of artists who strive for permanent employment that will provide them with existential security while providing them with an opportunity for artistic growth. By re-examining and analyzing the existing models of labor relations, the basic hypothesis we want to prove in the paper is that permanent employment and achieving permanent employment is the best solution for hiring artists in institutional theatre. In order to fulfill the set goals and prove the hypothesis, the paper will use theoretical research in the field of human resources management (Rahimic, Torrington, Hall, Taylor), labor law, cultural policy (Djukic), cultural studies (Klajic, Ristic, Djordjevic) as well as the case studies of form of employment in national theatres in the region. The paper also presents an empirical research that dealt with the impact the different forms of employment have on artists. The research shows that the establishment of a permanent employment relationship is of greater benefit to artist.

Covid-19 pandemic has changed the lives of people around the world. The specific situation in which the world found itself, required the adjustment of the forms of human behaviuor, in terms of constant and timely information. The study, conducted on a sample of 300 students and five universities and high schools in Serbia, aimed to examine the way students are informed about the Covic-19 pandemic, as well as students? attitudes about measures taken by the Government of the Republic of Serbia to combat the Covid-19 pandemic. Covid-19 has become an unavoidable topic in all communication channels. The media and social networks transmit numerous researches and theses on a daily basis and thus become the basis and the most accessible source of information, but one can often come across various information that leads to misconceptions. The most common information channel is represented by social networks and media, after that, students list friends as a source of information, then the Internet, doctors and finally all of the above. Although almost a third of the respondents trust the profession the most, that is, the doctor?s recommendations, as many as a tenth of the surveyed students do not trust it. It is also worrying that the majority of respondents do not have a positive attitude towards the measures adopted by the Government of the Republic of Serbia with the aim of combating the consequences of the Covid-19 pandemic.

Traditional folk architecture on Tara mountain, generally speaking, belongs to cultural areal of traditional building of dinarska brvnara type, i.e. building made of wood. In direct connection with Zlatibor mountain, where we can find some of the best examples of vernacular architecture, traditional building on Tara mountain does not show any specificity but at the same time does not lag behind comparison with other regions with the same type of building. In this paper we are presenting results of ethnographic field research in traditional folk construction of economic buildings. The field research was accomplished during years 2015 and 2016 in villages on Tara. The emphasis is on the economic buildings which are directly derived from structure of economic activities of rural population and we are taking into account both traditional and contemporary economic buildings. In this paper basic forms of organisation of space in households are presented as well. Preliminary analysis of the economic buildings on Tara shows that they clearly follow needs of traditional economy, needs which are determined with the culture of social organization as well as with the structure of economic organization. Construction and architecture of economic buildings also points out that they are on high utilitarian level and that they can represent relations between some economic activities.

Since the identity policies of the post-Yugoslav states have been creating tensions domestically and internationally in the last two decades, the aim of this paper is to study and explain the causes that encourage antagonisms. We start from the assumption that these causes are related to models of identity policy and memory culture mediated by transnational media. This is because the essence of collective identity is in the consciousness of belonging, which should not be an obstacle to coexistence and good neighborly relations, as long as that consciousness does not imply the negation of the identity system of social groups living in the state. Thus we come to the policy of pluralization of identity as a public policy pursued by the state policy of cultural memory as a ?social and cultural framework? of identity policy. In the absence of pluralization, culture is located on the scene of a struggle between different models of identity policies fueled by a densely intertwined network of transnational media. Their influence on public opinion formation comes from the realm of countercultural transculturalism and neoliberal globalism.

We have tried to open some new and possibly undisclosed vistas on the famous scene in the movie Schindler?s List, by Steven Spielberg, by probing the famous question: can and should the Holocaust be represented. To the best of my knowledge, the famous speech of the main antagonist of the movie, Amon Goeth, ?Today is history?, has not to this moment been treated in this manner, as the bearer of the insightful theories of style and philosophy. This is what we tried to remedy in this paper. We try to accomplish this by broadening the conceptual frames of the classical stylistics coming from structuralism of De Saussure, and by applying Mikhail Bakhtin?s philosophy of the speech genre, to this particular scene. Starting hypothesis, relating to the gap between Western and Russian semioses, was that classical semiosis, best represented by Peirce and Umberto Eco, would not tolerate this broadening of the diegetic script towards the biblical levels of the meaning, which are absent in this capacities of Western semiosis. We assumed that this was the subconscious plan of the director, namely, to represent the German plan: to make Holocaust not only reach the biblical proportions, but biblical style and meaning as well, and thus to immortalize itself. During the analysis we have encountered certain similarities in the distribution and the behavior of the figure of speech asyndeton, in the diegetic script of the movie, and the attitudes of the modernity, as they are represented in Catherine Pickstock?s book After Writing: Liturgical Consummation of the Philosophy. Together with Bakhtins? work, Pickstocks? analyses served as our guiding and starting point of the observation and manipulation of the deigetic text. After having discovered the aborted patterns of the stylistic reconfiguration, towards which nazi propaganda unsuccesufully aimed at, in order to accomplish the paschal rite de passage through controlling of the historical necessity, we moved toward the pictures of history, harboured in the depos of the Nazi understanding of what Jews and Germans are. We have found essential contradictions in this respect with the Nazis, stemming from the serious ontological error of confusing ancient Roman ancestral history and very deformed and reduced Judeo-Christian perspectives, which represent the only possible epistemological interface which can manouvre the Holocaust into description. Thus, we conclude, that this description is not only possible, but it is neccessary, just like its counterpart, representation.

The paper deals with the history of the judge exam in the Kingdom of Serbia. So far, this issue has not been the subject of legal-historical research, although the institution of a special judge exam has a tradition of more than a century in Serbian law. The subject of the paper is processed mainly on the basis of original unpublished and published archival material, as well as relevant domestic literature. Researching the history of the judge exam is important for researching the broader problem of judicial independence in the Kingdom of Serbia, since judicial competence is an important guarantee of judicial independence. The research of the history of the judge exam in Serbia is important at this moment given the fact that the official strategic documents of the Government of the Republic of Serbia announced the reform of the existing concept of the Bar Exam. Without knowing the beginnings of the application of the judge exam institution in Serbian law, it is difficult to implement a valid reform of the institution of the Bar Exam today. The institution of the judge exam was prescribed for the first time in the Kingdom of Serbia by the Law on Judges from 1891, but no sooner than 1911 did it come to life with the adoption of the Law on Judges and the Rules for Taking the Judge Exam. Only persons who worked in the civil service for a certain number of years had the right to take the judge exam, while lawyers who worked in the court were privileged in relation to lawyers from other professions. A number of measures were envisaged to ensure impartiality and publicity. The judge exam was three-part, consisting of a written essay (theme), solving a hypothetical case (clausura) and an oral exam. The legal-theoretical knowledge of the candidates about a specific institute, as well as the knowledge of national and comparative positive law were checked with the written essay. Clausura and the oral exam served to test the practical knowledge of the application of national material and procedural legislation.

The article examines the work of the first modern writer of the Serbian language, Eustahija Arsic. Undoubtedly, Dositej Obradovic?s student, in her short ethical treatise, published under the title ?Moral Lessons? (1816), presented a kind of list of leading virtues. At the beginning of the 19th century, almost every story about morality responded to the need to shape an intersubjective, national platform. Moral education aimed to create a better man, and a better man was necessary by all means. The 19th century will create it. He or she will appear in the form of an engaged national worker, liberal and cosmopolitan. The author?s profile of Eustahija Arsic testifies to the unusual, almost paradoxical modest courage of our first female writer. In order to illuminate it appropriately, we have firstly considered the configuration of the notion of beginning in the first decades of the 19th century. According to Eustahija, the beginning is a free act, the initiation of sharing, and its reflection points to taking the active life into one?s own hands.

The paper deals with the analysis of inter-regional differences in unemployment rates, including an assessment of changes in local labour markets in the 2010s. Comparison of statistics related to the labour market development exclusively at the national level does not allow a complete overview of the employment problems. Based on the available data of the Statistical Office of the Republic of Serbia, we have compiled three maps that give a visual representation of the unemployment in municipalities in Serbia. The first map demonstates the share of the unemployed in the total population of municipalities at the beginning of 2018 (taking into account the qualification structure of the unemployed population). The second map reveals the dynamics of unemployment rates in municipalities (value ratio for 2018 and 2010). Finally, the third map reflects the authors' vision of regionalization of the unemployment phenomenon in Serbia, expressed in identifying spatial configurations that differ in labour market characteristics. The regionalization of the phenomenon of unemployment in Serbia has enabled the identification of the most and least successful territories in terms of maintaining stability in the labour market. In addition, we highlighted the existing problems of the labour market, emphasized the importance of implementation of employment policies and inclusion in this process of all societal structures, starting with the state, local authorities, private and public sectors in order to achieve sustainable economic growth.

In the early 2014, the global political scene was marked by the emergence of the so-called Islamic State established in the Middle East. It was a direct result of the military intervention of the Western military alliance in Iraq in 2003 and it created chaos ensuing the intervention in this country and the wider region of the Middle East. The pivotal religious and political concept of its operation is a form of government based solely on Islamic (Sharia) law. The origins of this unrecognized, paramilitary, terrorist organization were linked to the year 2004 when the fundamentalist, militant Sunni groups, along with other Islamist organizations, jointly took part in the armed conflict against Western, military invasion forces operating in Iraq. The additional target of their terrorist activities was the political regime officially in power in Iraq at the time, which operated politically and militarily in cooperation with the US and pro-Western forces. The religious and political ideology of the so-called Islamic state is exemplified by the propaganda tactics of violence and extreme interpretation of the Koran and radical Islam as well as by the continual fight against Christians and Jews. It is founded on the methodological promotion of war as a means to quench the non-Muslim countries and Muslim apostates. Establishing the global caliphate, or the global Islamic state, with extreme organizational and functional structure, was the primary strategic objective of the newly formed organization. The emergence of the Islamic State has opened a number of issues which are speculative in part. Although very present in public and covered by the media, this phenomenon has not yet been fully explored scientifically. The more profound causes of the occurrence and development of ID can be viewed and followed concurrently with the emergence and development of Islamism and its forms - from Wahhabism to present day Islamic terrorism at the beginning of the 21st century. In order to address these issues, uncover and comprehend the true essence of the phenomenon of the Islamic State, it was necessary to thoroughly explore the origins and development of this phenomenon. It has undoubtedly played an important role in the destabilization of the international peace and security, caused a different political, military and security constellation of the most important countries on the global political scene, and in part, caused their polarization and confrontation based on petty political, economic and other interests.

The origins of this unrecognized, paramilitary, terrorist organization were linked to the year 2004 when the fundamentalist, militant Sunni groups, along with other Islamist organizations, jointly took part in the armed conflict against Western, military invasion forces operating in Iraq. The additional target of their terrorist activities was the political regime officially in power in Iraq at the time, which operated politically and militarily in cooperation with the US and pro-Western forces. The religious and political ideology of the so-called Islamic state is exemplified by the propaganda tactics of violence and extreme interpretation of the Koran and radical Islam as well as by the continual fight against Christians and Jews. It is founded on the methodological promotion of war as a means to quench the non-Muslim countries and Muslim apostates. Establishing the global caliphate, or the global Islamic state, with extreme organizational and functional structure, was the primary strategic objective of the newly formed organization. The emergence of the Islamic State has opened a number of issues which are speculative in part. Although very present in public and covered by the media, this phenomenon has not yet been fully explored scientifically. The more profound causes of the occurrence and development of ID can be viewed and followed concurrently with the emergence and development of Islamism and its forms - from Wahhabism to present day Islamic terrorism at the beginning of the 21st century. In order to address these issues, uncover and comprehend the true essence of the phenomenon of the Islamic State, it was necessary to thoroughly explore the origins and development of this phenomenon. It has undoubtedly played an important role in the destabilization of the international peace and security, caused a different political, military and security constellation of the most important countries on the global political scene, and in part, caused their polarization and confrontation based on petty political, economic and other interests.","PeriodicalId":40081,"journal":{"name":"Zbornik Matice Srpske za Likovne Umetnosti-Matica Srpska Journal for Fine Arts","volume":"12 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80032189","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}
The aim of this paper is to portray the reception of the Septuagint in the early Church. Firstly, the synagogue view of the translation is provided, from the reports in which the origin of the translation is enthusiastically discussed, to the rejection of the Septuagint. A particular emphasis is placed on theological argumentation attempting to prove the divine inspiration of the translation of the Seventy. In this process, the prominent figures are: Justin Martyr, Irenaeus of Lyons, Clement of Alexandria, Origen, Pseudo-Justin, Epiphanius of Salamis, Cyril of Jerusalem, John Chrysostom and Augustine. The paper deals with two textual disputes over the authenticity of the Septuagint text as the legitimate successor of the original Hebrew consonant text. Textual deviations were often a reason for such confrontations. The first dispute is between Julius Africanus and Origen. Within it, Origen clarifies textual issues of certain Old Testament books. Jerome and Augustine took part in the second dispute. Jerome leaned more towards the Hebrew truth (Hebraica Veritas), while Augustine put more stock into the translation of the Seventy. These confrontations clearly reflect the status of the Septuagint in the early Church. Finally, a concise review of the further status of the Septuagint in the Western and Eastern Churches is provided.
