Abstract: Seven decades have passed since the presentation of Schuman’s declaration, a concise powerful and visionary statement by French Minister Robert Schuman, which proposes the creation of the first European supranational organization for coal and steel. On May 9, 1950, at the French Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Paris, the process of integration of European countries essentially began. The ideas and concepts of the Schuman Declaration, which represents a turning point in the history of Europe, are incorporated into all future European treaties, from the Paris Treaty establishing the European Coal and Steel Community, through the Treaties of Rome and all their amendments, to the 2007 Lisbon Reform Treaty. Europe developed on the affirmation of the principles of peace, solidarity, economic prosperity and common European values. Today, the idea of European unification gathers 27 European countries, and one of the countries knocking on the door of the Union is Montenegro. This paper gives a brief overview of the integration path of Montenegro towards the supranational organization sui generis, as the Union is today. The chronology of tracing the European path of Montenegro can be viewed in the broader context of establishing the first relations with the European Economic Community (EEC) of the then Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia (SFRY) in the period from 1967 to 1991, then the characteristics of relations with the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia (FRY) with the then European Communities in the period from 1992 to 2003, and the relations that further developed in the period of the State Union of Serbia and Montenegro (SM) from 2003 to 2006, and finally the development of relations between the Union and the independent state of Montenegro in the period from the regaining Montenegrin independence in 2006 until today.

ABSTRACT: The main goal of this essay is to see if there is a certain, real causal link between so called Marshall plan and what is well known as Schuman declaration; that is, in wider, general sense, it is about establishing historical link between America’s foreign policy after World War II (firstly, period 1947-1950) and the beginnings of what we now usually call European integration. The essay shows that Shuman declaration is in fact not original initiative, but rather response or reaction to huge pressure that USA, especially in autumn of 1949 and on, did put on French government and France. USA wanted from France to assume lidership in Western Europe, and to come up with solution for “German question”, that is, some proposal that would have strong European dimension, which would enable re-integration of Western Germany into Western Europe and the family of European nations…and so and by that at the same time matching one of the most important, if not the most important goal of america’s overall foreign policy of the time.

Abstract: The rockshelter of Crvena Stijena (Nikšić municipality, Montenegro) is one of the most important Paleolithic sites in southeastern Europe. Its 20-meter deep sequence of archaeological deposits spans the Middle Paleolithic through the Bronze Age. The Middle Paleolithic deposits themselves, which cover an astonishing 12 meters in depth, contain one of the longest records of Neanderthal occupation in the region. Since its discovery in 1954, the site has been the subject of two major research projects; the data they have produced have helped make it a critical type-site for the Paleolithic in the Balkans. In this paper, our goal is to introduce the aims and methodologies of the new research collaboration at Crvena Stijena that we established in 2016. We first present the site within the context of the Middle Paleolithic of the western Balkans. We then describe the history of research at Crvena Stijena, and summarize the results of the last project, which were recently published. Finally, we describe the research questions that are guiding our new investigations, and the methods we are applying in order to answer these questions while preserving as much of the site as possible for future generations of archaeologists.

Abstract: The aim of this study is to introduce the intermediary role of Kotor in the Balkan missions comparing it to the same activities of Ragusa. From 1578 the Bolica family was responsible for coordinating the postal service from Venice to Istanbul, as a consequence of which the family acquired a vast network of connections in the Balkans. In the 17th century four members of the Bolica family which ran the postal service worked as the Balkan commissioners of the Congregation of Propaganda Fide. Franjo Bolica was the most outstanding of the four due to his personal qualities and as a result of both the importance of his commissions and the prosperity during the war of Candia (1645-1669).

Abstract: The paper is dedicated to the analysis of social and historical circumstances surrounding the origin and change in the territorial and administrative structure of the area of Onogošt (Nikšić) from mid-XV until early XVIII century. Even though the nahiyah of Onogošt was formed within its natural boundaries, as was the feudal župa preceding it, the censuses that followed proved it to be transformed in line with the principle of tribes and clans, thus being divided into four nahiyahs: Onogošt, Gračanica/Nikšić, Riđani and Komarnica. The local communities maintained complex relations which applied also to the change in their territorial position, the fact confirmed by scarce data. The recently published census of the Sanjak of Herzegovina from 1701 contained data which permit a better perception of the former territorial and administrative structure of Onogošt (Nikšić) and the neighboring areas.

Abstract: The paper deals with the development of Benito Mussolini’s position on the so called „Adriatic question”, i.e. place of Adriatic region in Italian foreign policy during the First World War. That means that Mussolini’s political inconsistency and changes were not due to ideological reasons, since they were the results of opportunistic and selfish political considerations. As the public opinion in Italy took a clear uncompromising stand concerning the territorial dispute with its Adriatic neighbor, he adjusted his approach for exploiting the increasing political consensus, which the nationalist propaganda was gaining among Italian public opinion.

Abstract: This text presents observations on Njegoš‘s interest in science and technical achievements within the context of his epoch. His was an age of „Romantic science“ which transformed the rationalism of Enlightenment of the previous century with visionary passion, as it also did the reception of science in the public eye. Njegoš‘s dedication to science and technical achievements which relied on science was an expression of the liveliness of his spirit, intellectual views and constant striving to modernise his country.Njegoš introduces new technical achievements into major state project which he initiates, into visual representation of his country, effemeral events, by which he expresses an awareness of Montenegro as an entity and of himself as its ideator and ruler. Particular attention is given to Njegoš‘s encounters with contemporary wonders of science and technical achievement during his travels. Special significance is assigned to Njegoš‘s note on the Crystal Palace, raised for the Great Exhibition in London in 1851, which offers a sublimation of the new, modern age.

Abstract: The images of urban architecture become increasingly featured on the coins and seals issued in the medieval West in the 11th and particularly in the 12th century. This iconography is featured on the coins issued by the Crusaders and the coins of the newly-formed states after the 1204 dissolution of the Byzantine Empire. Citadels also become increasingly featured on the money coined in the coastal cities of the medieval Serbian state in the 12th and subsequently in the lands ruled by the Balsic family. The paper examines the iconography of these images, the methods and versions of visual representation of medieval cities and urban communities featured on coinage and seals, as well as the messages conveyed through this iconography.

Abstract: Analyzing archive materials, mostly written in Latin alphabet, legal historians and romanists have come to a conclusion that the hereditary legal institutes treated, as welll as other institutes of the private law of the southern Adriatic communes, had a feature undertaken mainly from the classical roman Law, or recepted ius communae. Some deviations were present to a less or greater extent, and reflected direct and indirect influences of Slavic and Byzantine law that were coming from the Balkan Peninsula’s inland to coastal centres. Further investigations on detailed sources of many issues are needed to make a mosaic of the dominant influences on the formation of medieval private law in Adriatic coastal towns. This paper is a continuation of my research on the institute of testament in Medieval Cattaro, and it is related to the analysis of the statutory provisions on testing freedom and obliged testaments forms, as well as the application of these form in order to determine a real influence and significance of the classical Roman law and similar ones, developed later on its normative arrangement and real legal life.

Abstract: Although there is an enormous literature and numerous volumes of historical material on Montenegro Outlaw Movement, after the First World War, and on Montenegrin army in Italy, there are still some gaps and unanswered questions regarding this topic. One of these gaps is the participation of the Herzegovinians and Bosnians in the Montenegrin legion in Gaeta, and their motives or reasons for joining the fight for dynastic rights of dethroned Montenegrin leader. According to the statements of the returnees to the Kingdom of SHS in the March of 1921, we can see how they reached Gaeta and understand the relations between the officers and the soldiers in the military camp. Besides, their statements provide valuable facts on suffering of the subjects of the newly formed Kingdom of SHS in the Italian camps, after the First World War.

Abstract: The paper examines how Western interests and perceptions of the Balkans affected the policy of great western powers towards the region at the beginning and at the end of the twentieth century. First Carnegie Endowment report on the Balkans was prepared on the American initiative by the international commission led by French senator D`Esturnel de Constant that investigated the causes and the conduct of the Balkan Wars. Published in 1914, shortly before the beginning of the World War One, it condemned the atrocities committed by the belligerents and advocated closer transatlantic cooperation in formulating Western policy towards the Balkans. Reprint of the 1914. report was published in 1993 with the introduction written by George F. Kennan during the Civil War in Yugoslavia and led to the second Carnegie Endowment report entitled „Unfinished Peace“, prepared by the international commission led by former Belgium prime minister, Leo Tindemans. Elaborating on the 1914 thesis that only transatlantic cooperation can pacify the post-Cold War Balkans and control the Balkans nationalisms that were, in Kennan`s opinion, threatening peace and stability in Europe. Even though he considered the Balkans an European problem Kennan conclude that this situation is one to which US cannot be indifferent advocating the use of force to stop the war and long-lasting involvement of the West in reconstruction of the region.
