ABSTRACT: This paper deals with the development of Croatian politics ahead of the Sarajevo assassination and the outbreak of the First World War. The focus of attention is the question of a national issue whose interpretation of 1903 is gaining new significance due to the acute crisis of dualism, change of government in the Kingdom of Serbia, and the increasingly prominent activity of the heir, Duke Franz Ferdinand. On the basis of the analysis of parliamentary party programs and the activities of relevant political groups, unilateral dissatisfaction with the Croatian position in Austria-Hungary is noticed, and in the context of the state relations with Hungary, it stands out as an overwhelming problem of achieving Croatian financial autonomy. After the implementation of the annexation of Bosnia and Herzegovina, the approach to the national issue is tightened, and from then on, a considerable number of political actors have seen its solution only in affirmation of the principle of national unity in the integral area of the southern Slavs.

The paper provides an insight into the broader context of political and social in Croatia and the Austro-Hungarian monarchy; questions were raised – the maturation of national and class consciousness of national masses – which in the post-war period would be an important factor in radical social changes. The basic sources used in the paper are autobiographical records and diary memories of war participants as well as the records of individuals who participated in public life in the given period.

ABSTRACT: The Roman settlements of southeastern Dalmatia, namely Risinium, Doclea and Municipium S. were organized as other provincial municipal communities in the Roman Empire. The social structure of indigenous societies in this region before conquest is not clear. In the coastal settlements such as Risan, the process of Romanization started earlier and had deeper roots. In the central region, Docleates were peregrines, led by tribal aristocracy from the castelli such as Salthua, on the main road from Narona to Scodra. Their names suggest they were not Roman citizens, although they use Latin language in their inscriptions. In the hinterland epigraphic evidence shows a strong early presence of indigenous elite in the network of municipal political institutions.

ABSTRACT: The paper analyses foreign political activities of the Montenegrin metropolitan Peter II Petrović Njegoš in the 1930s, which bear the formal characteristics of diplomatic affairs. For this reason, the author believed them important for the study of diplomatic history of Montenegro, even though these were not typical diplomatic actions but rather international activities of a country which in fact exists but does not have the capacity of an international subject to speak of its diplomacy in the sense of international law. In order to explain the historical backdrop of the two Russian missions of Peter II, the author uses national archive sources from the Department of Archives of National Museum of Montenegro and National Archives of Montenegro along with the known literature, and he also relies to a great extent on the documents of the Foreign Affairs Archives of the Russian Empire. Thus, many details regarding both missions which have not been scientifically elaborated are explained, and can be useful to contemporary researchers in terms of the objectives and tasks of foreign political missions of Peter II.

• Dragana KUJOVIĆ, Smail-aga Čengić između dva epska portreta, 101-110  Download

ABSTRACT: Mažuranić’s epic poem The Death of Smail-aga Čengić described the death of mute sarrif of Gacko. The character of this Turkish hero took on epically hackneyed characteristics attributed to Turkish thugs in national poetry. The ruthless Turkish commander is contrasted with the oppressed Christian people, subject to all sorts of injustice and violence. There have been many at tempts at describing the Turkish dignitary Smail-aga Čengić, which are either epic or which surpass the epic frame, and they tend to place him in to an entirely different notion of reality, not without exaggeration which quite often unjustifiably coincides with a contrary cliché – a beautified and retouched image. By emphasizing the reputation of the mute sarrif, which he gained with courage, achievements and a dignified loyalty to Ottoman authorities, unlike inane, pathetic and hypocritical subjects, such image tells that reality painted a double picture in collective memory. However, the divided image is united by a historical con text, the same characters, events and details which enable an impartial research process, completely relieved of bias and attempts to humor the traditional, i.e. epic role division in to good and evil, “our” chivalry and “their” cowardice, which is usually blind and conventional.

ABSTRACT: The paper is an analysis of the position and upbringing of a Montenegrin woman in Montenegro clans and tribes. From the historical point of view, her role was tied to the family, which was also her most important personal and social function. Social value of women and their acceptance in the community (clan, tribe) they belong to, from birth until different years of age, was inextricably linked to the structure of family life. Household and raising children meant that a woman had to stay “tied” to the house all her life. Moreover, she participated in the course of her social life only in directly – through her father, brother, husband, son or other male relatives. The family was, therefore, her micro and macro world. Thus the position of a Montenegrin woman on the social ladder in the 19th century always depended on her dominant role in the vertical line of family relations and the social importance she would gain through affiliation with strong male figures: father, brother or husband. This resulted in the provisions of traditional law which preached inequality of sexes in the matters of heritage and property, of law, economy and other.

ABSTRACT: The basic aim of this work is to show the development of the political relations between the Kingdom of Serbia, and the Principality (and later Kingdom) of Montenegro during the reign of the two most rival-ling dynasties – Petrovic and Obrenovic, and the dynasty of Karadjordjevic after 1903, as seen through the eyes of British diplomats in Belgrade. In the period between 1878 and 1910 there were so many diplomatic reports which alluded to the poor relations between the two states, dynasties and crowns especially during the reign of King Milan Obrenovic of Serbia and Prince Nikola Petrovic of Montenegro. They hated each other. King Milan believed that Prince Nikola was a puppet in hands of Russia, and that his goal was to remove him from the Serbian throne and take his place. At the same time, Prince Nikola was frustrated because Milan Obrenovic declared Serbia a Kingdom. The relations improved somewhat during the reign of his son, King Alexander, but they grew even worse after 1903 than they had been before the Coup d’Etat in May.

• Živko M. ANDRIJAŠEVIĆ, Razvoj elektroprivrede u Crnoj Gori 1910-1945., 143-179  Download

ABSTRACT:at the beginning of the 20th century, electric power is introduced in Montenegro, but not for public use (street lights and houses), but rather for a specific purpose (of supplying machineries). The first one to use electric power to operate its equipment was the radio-telegraphic station in Volujica in 1904. Putting the Cetinje electric power plant, meant for public use, in to operation in 1910 was an important event because it meant that Montenegro had adopted an achievement of the developed world. Three years later, electric power plant in Bar was also put in to operation. Along with the two electric power plants (in Cetinje and Bar), electrification of other places on the territory of Montenegro was started in 1918. In 1941, the first hydroelectric power plant “Podgor” was put in to operation (near the village Podgor in Crmnica). The hydroelectric plant “Podgor” had the capacity of 300 kW, and its primary purpose was to generate electricity to operate pumps that delivered water to Cetinje. If we consider the first stage of development of the Montenegrin electric power industry, which lasted from 1910 until 1945, it becomes clear that a significant progress was made in this branch of economy, though the progress may seem modest compared to other parts of the Yugoslav state. The progress which was achieved may not have satisfied wishes and expectations but it corresponded to the current needs of Montenegro and the economic climate, which ultimately determined its size.

ABSTRACT: The term totalitarianism is relatively new, appearing in the books at the end of the period between wars, and it has particularly spread after World War II. Etymology defines totalitarianism as such political system in which state or a party leadership administers and controls the entire social life – economy, education, culture, science, philosophy, even relations within families and everyday communication between people – by means of coercion. Totalitarian regimes are those which delighted a part of Europe after World War I, and not only people but also the educated and upper classes of society, regardless of the simplicity, violence and irrational postulates of the ideas and positions of those ideologies. In that regard, propaganda is probably one of the most important instruments of totalitarianism, where it took on unforeseen proportions. Previous propaganda principles were elaborated, and practice yielded and perfected new and more efficient action techniques.

He believes that those books could be used as an important starting point in studying Slavic legal customs. Bogišić believed that the common law of Slavic people was a segment necessary for studying and understanding it. For this reason, he conducted his famous polls but, as we can see, he also used all available sources for which he believed contained elements of common law of Slavic people.

ABSTRACT: The subject of this work is conservation of an amphora from the site of Doclea, located in the vicinity of Podgorica, Montenegro. The amphora was found during the excavation campaign which took place in 1958 – 1962, when about 300 tombs were unearthed and a large number of whole and fragmented amphorae were discovered. The amphora which is described in this paper was the only one found in the southeastern necropolis of Doc lea. This type of amphora is common in the 1st and early 2nd centuries AD. The amphora was found in a very fragmentary state and the absence of its large part, made the conservation very complicated. During the process of conservation all the steps of the conservation procedure were executed and recommendations were made for the further preservation of amphora in appropriate conditions in order to eliminate damaging influence of the outside factors.
