ABSTRACT: The paper is dedicated to the issue of termination or cessation of the international legal continuity of Montenegro after the end of the First World War.

ABSTRACT: For almost an entire century, the Christmas Uprising has been the subject of historiographical exposition, but the impression is that we have not moved further than the beginning, regardless of the fact that in the meantime several hundreds of books, contributions and essays and thousands of primary historical sources have been published on this subject. The author will try to synthesise the large number of issues into only those key ones, with the possibility of additional resolution, which in essence will lead to a re-examination of this event. KEYWORDS: 1919 Christmas Uprising, insurgents, Montenegrin Army, government in exile, Allied occupation, Whites, Greens, for the right, honour and freedom of Montenegro.

ABSTRACT: The paper, with an introduction to the pre-war unification talks, traces the relations between Montenegro and Serbia from the July crisis to the autumn offensive of the Central Powers in the Balkans in October 1915. The mutual ties of the two countries during this period were burdened by the rivalry of the Petrović and Karadjordjević dynasties. Montenegrin King Nicholas often resorted to alternative solutions, behind the back of the Serbian side, with which his country was on a common front. Such a policy in time of war, which required the highest degree of unity, produced serious difficulties for mutual cooperation and distrust of the Great allies towards the old sovereign. The events of the first war year had consequences in the latter events, the way of unification and the dethronement of the Montenegrin ruling family. KEYWORDS: The Kingdom of Montenegro, The Kingdom of Serbia, Serbian-Montenegrin relations, World War I, king Nicholas, Nikola Pašić, Sergey Sazonov

  • Žarko Leković, Svetozar Tomić – Nacionalni radnik, državnik i naučnik, 127-142  DOWNLOAD

Abstract: In the playground of those of our scientists who began their work in science at the end of the XIX and early XX centuries, and finished it before or after the Second World War, Svetozar Tomić occupies a significant and high position. He was a true systematic and methodological worker in researching complex socialist and anthropogenic issues, and without his works, the history of the regions he studied could not be written. Tomić’s works have a lasting value; they have shifted our knowledge and are inevitable in wider and deeper anthrop geographical and ethnological studies. Through the descriptions of settlements and lifestyles, Svetozar Tomić showed how much natural environment affects man and vice versa, man in the natural environment. He had an interdisciplinary approach in science, which he applied in his synthetic works. In addition, his scientific syntheses, generalizations and theories were preceded by precise tests and careful determination of the facts. Svetozar Tomić, using the method of Cvijić’s anthrop geographical school, described landscapes and folk life in the regions where tribal decorations were preserved at the time.

  • Maja Vehar, Ivan Smiljanić, i Peter Mikša, Slovenian Newspapers’ Views on Montenegro in 1918, 167-188  DOWNLOAD

Abstract: The paper gives a critical overview of articles in the Slovenian press from 1918, which discussed topics, events and issues relating to Montenegro. As major governmental and political changes took place that year, turning Montenegro from Slovenia’s formal military opponent to a member of the new common state, the press also reflected the gradual change in opinions, which nevertheless usually remained loyal to the principles and guidelines of an individual newspaper. The seventeen newspapers analysed mostly discuss the topics of the course of World War I, the territorial policy, the integration of Southern Slavs, Montenegrin foreign policy, and the Montenegrin ruling dynasty. Owing to the chaos of wartime and postwar events, the newspapers were unable to give a more thorough presentation of Montenegrin society and culture; hence, Slovenians could learn more about this aspect of Montenegro mainly from the books issued before the war and after it.

  • Nemanja VUJČIĆ, Kasandrova ilirska politika, 7-20   DOWNLOAD

ABSTRACT: This paper is written as an attempt of investigation of the deeper motivation behind the two Illyrian campaigns of the Macedonian ruler Cassander (316 – 297 BC). Theresults of these actions were ephemeral and they are not seen as very important in the modern historiography. They are explained either as a kind of continuation of the traditional policy of the Macedonian kings towards their western neighbors or as an indication of increasingly important role played by the southern Illyrian tribes on the wider Mediterranean scene. This paper interprets these campaigns as a part of a well-planned expansion in the direction of the Adriatic Sea, an attempt that represents a fresh chapter in the history of the Macedonian relations with Illyrian peoples. Although the exact scope and the particulars of his plans are impossible to know now, Cassander’s policy in these parts anticipates similar designs of Philip V, one century later. Failure of these attempts should be explained by wider historical circumstances: more pressing issues were occupied Cassander’s attention and resources. After the initial success, he was not in the position to devote significant forces into defense and control of the occupied areas.

  • Snežana FERJANČIĆ, Some notes on the fragment CIL XVI 19 from Stara Palanka, 21-26  DOWNLOAD

Abstract: The collection of the City Museum of Vršac contains a small piece of a military diploma published by H. Nesselhauf in 1936 (CIL XVI 19). Close examination of the fragment has allowed us to propose a slightly different reading and interpretation of the partially preserved text. The inner side contained information on the place on the Capitol, in Rome, where the original document had been exhibited (ara gentis Iuliae). Two partially preserved witness signatures, consisting of their names and origo, are recorded on the outer side. One of them seemingly included additional elements, i. e. the filiation, followed by a tribe. Judging by the mention of the altar of the Julian family, the Stara Palanka fragment should be dated to the time between 68 AD and 71 AD.

ABSTRACT: The paper contains four overlooked documents about Stefanica Crnojević, the Duke (vojvoda) of Zeta; the documents are published according to the copies in the collection of documents from Kotor made by Antonio Bisanti and dating from the 18th century. Three documents are directly concerned with Stefanica’s entry into Venetian service 1451– 1452, while the fourth concerns his plea for military help in 1460, in expectation of an attack from the Turkish commander of the Medun Fortress.

ABSTRACT: This text presents observations on relationship of Petar II Petrović Njegoš, bishop and poet of Montenegro, to Byron – based on the portrait of English poet in the main room of Njegoš’s residence at Cetinje, the capital of Montenegro, as well as Njegoš’s records in his notebook. The text points to the crucial importance the English poet made in shaping the reception of Italy and its art in the first half of the 19th century, as well as the echo of Byron’s verses in Njegoš’s meditation on Italy. Special attention was paid to the Njegoš’s thoughts on the Colosseum and other ruins of Rome, which were colored by the phenomenon of Byronised Italy.

Special attention was paid to the battle of Grahovo (1858), territorial expansion that followed the demarcation with Turkey

Abstract: After the demarcation of 1858. tribe Lakes and Šaranci Piva remain under Turkish rule, which was so weakened that it was not even felt, and this limit will remain until the Berlin Congress in 1878, when the border between Montenegro and Turkey moves on the river Tara, and when that area became part of Montenegro. Piva area, ponds and Šaranci tribe were considered Turkish subjects, but they did not feel the same way, so that Montenegro gave a little tax, while Turkish tried to escape, striving with all his strength to join Montenegro. While still within the limits of the Turkish state are from 1858 to 1878 voluntarily pay taxes to the Montenegrin state.

  • Radenko ŠĆEKIĆ, U fokusu istorije i geopolitike Poluostrvo Krim (1774 – 2014.), 117-133  DOWNLOAD

Abstract: In the period from the late 18th to the present, a relatively small area of the Crimean peninsula is often found in the focus of geopolitical happenings. It was annexed to the Russian Empire after the Ottoman defeats and the Treaty of Küçük Kaynarca, which officialized the Russian expansion and hegemony over the Black Sea basin. This area of rich history and multi-ethnic composition again came into sharp geopolitical significance during the bloody Crimean War in the mid 19th century. Forced emigration of entire ethnic groups and joining the peninsula to Ukraine, distinguished the epoch of communism. In 2014, the annexation of the Crimea to the Russian Federation represented one of the reasons for new tensions in international relations. The harsh geopolitical rhetoric, economic and political sanctions, saber rattling, distinguishes contemporary global reality and multipolar world that is crystallizing.

  • Željko RUTOVIĆ, Istorijat razvoja štampe i medijske politike u Crnoj Gori, 135-146  DOWNLOAD

ABSTRACT: This paper attempts, through the theoretical prism, to emphasize the process of building media pluralism in Montenegro, mostly from the perspective of public policy, legislation and institutional framework in the past two decades. Since the second half of the 90s of the twentieth century, there has been a trend towards the establishment of new media entities, predominantly focused to the political sphere. The emergence of several media players on the media scene, often with clear conflict between political and programmatic positions, the turbulent political events, learning media professionalism and ethics, on the other hand, in the context of the European legal framework, required the implementation of high standards of respect for freedom of expression and the necessity of self-regulatory principles.

Abstract.  During the First World War, together with the suffering of the people Church hierarchy suffered as well. Although with limited possibilities at their disposal, Church dignitaries and clergy did their best to alleviate the difficult situation of the people. This essay devotes a special attention to the charity activity of three hierarchs: Mitrofan Ban, Archbishop of Cetinje and Metropolitan of Montenegro, Mounts and Coastlands; Bishop Kirilo Mitrovic of Zaholm-Raska and Metropolitan Gavrilo of Pec. The author employs a thorough pedantry in order to expose the manifold Mitrofan Ban’s charity activity that, being supported by the clergy, embraced all the layers of society, regardless of their religious or national affiliation.

  • Nataša MILIĆEVIĆ, „Gospod-in, građanin, drug, podanik“: društvene promene i jezik u Srbiji 1944-1950, 217-232  DOWNLOAD

ABSTRACT: This paper analyzes the influence of political and social changes on language as a means of social communication in Serbia/Yugoslavia within the first few years after the World War II. In addition to the general linguistic changes which were indicating the altered social relations, as well as emphasizing the new values, this paper also discusses the changes that occurred between and within the political and social groups. Special attention is given to the reaction of the Serbian middle class (bourgeoise) members pertaining to the linguistic changes, being themselves “sentenced” to „disappearance“ in the new structure of society and in the times of radical changes. Ultimately, the linguistic changes led to the altered state of consciousness and the creation of new societal identity.

    ABSTRACT: In this paper, the author deals with the question of formation of the state and legal subjectivity of Montenegro after it gained independence pursuant to the decisions of the Congress of Berlin. The decisions of the Congress were a milestone in the history of Montenegro and its statehood on both internal and foreign levels. Apart from improving the state apparatus in the normative and actual sense, they created space for the development of social relations on an economic, educational, cultural and, in a word, civic level, thus transforming Montenegrins from the status of “subjects” into citizens of an internationally recognized member of the international community.

    ABSTRACT:One of the epochs in history of Montenegro ended in 1878. The international and foreign political position was changed then, as well as the frame of its national political activities, of social, economical, and culturological environment. Changes in these domains had been expected, but it seems that it had not been anticipated how deep they would be and where would lead. What is also important, some of them had not been expected previously, so they forced the winners from the recent war to act accordingly, though involuntarily. It is obvious that Cetinje had no real knowledge about the area that was planned to be annexed to Montenegro before 1878. Another unexpected thing was the inadequate change of the international position of the state emerging from the Austro-Hungarian occupation of the Bosnia and Herzegovina, especially the legitimacy of its newly-established control. When it entered the war, Montenegrin elite thought more about the enemy than about the territories it planned to take over, which resulted in a position that it was easier to occupy the mentioned areas with arms than by adequate institutions.

    ABSTRACT: Until the outbreak of the Balkan Crisis in 1875, the Monarchy’s foreign politics of non-intervention into Balkan conflicts aimed at enabling the Ottoman Empire to solve its problems on itself. At the beginning of 1875, the minister for foreign affairs, Andrássy was alarmed by a not unlike intervention of Serbia and Montenegro in Bosnia-Herzegovina and its eminent consequences for the security of Dalmatia. Therefore, the occupation of the two Ottoman provinces became an open aim of his foreign policy. Another aim was to prevent a potential unification of Serbia and Montenegro. A sovereign status of Montenegro was a much better option. The paper’s first section will provide a short sketch of the Habsburg Balkan policy from about the Congress of Vienna (1814/15) to the Congress of Berlin (1878); the second will present an overview of the bilateral relations between the Habsburg Empire and the emerging state of Montenegro until 1878; the third section, finally aims to shed light on the Empire’s ambitions related to Montenegro at the Congress of Berlin.

    ABSTRACT: Montenegrin foreign policy goals have not been fully achieved by gaining the independence at the Congress of Berlin. It was a common opinion of its leadership that the state, territorially enlarged and internationally recognized, had yet to fulfill some its ambitions. The most suitable moments for accomplishing these tasks were the times of international crises, when the order established by the Great Powers at the Congress of Berlin became violated. The one of them was the crisis developed in the fall of 1908 by Austro-Hungarian annexation of Bosnia and Herzegovina. The largest number of official documents, governmental memos, notes, letters, telegrams and other diplomatic correspondence that revealed Montenegrin wishes and intentions regarding its position in this question date from the mentioned few months of annexation crisis. These claims were not equally addressed to the all Great Powers, but the majority of them, the greatest and most determined, were a part of the correspondence with Russia.

    ABSTRACT: The paper deals with the diplomatic background of the events between the Austrian-Hungarian annexation of Bosnia and Herzegovina and the preparations for the First World War. It provides details of the involvement, interests and actions of the diplomatic and intelligence services of the Russian and Austrian-Hungarian empires, as well as the related activities of the Serbian and Montenegrin governments. While the policy of Vienna was to secure the expansion further into the Balkans, where the annexation of Bosnia represented only the first step, Serbia and Montenegro sought their own territorial enlargement and regarded the Austro-Hungarian activities as an open threat. Due to the complex imperial relations with Austrian-Hungarian Empire and her efforts elsewhere, Russia considered it would be highly inconvenient if hostilities broke out in the Balkans at that time, and it influenced Serbia and Montenegro to turn they attention toward south and south-east. The Balkan Wars were the outcome of such policy, which further shifted the political balance in the region and led to preparations for the final showdown.

    ABSTRACT: Throughout the 19th century there had been modest educational opportunities and conditions for the education of Montenegrin youth within Montenegro. These were somewhat improved solely with the opening of the Seminary, the Theological – Teacher Training School, the Girls‘ Institute and the Gymnasium at Cetinje in the second half of the 19thcentury. The established educational institutes contributed to the increase in the number students being educated within Montenegro and those who, upon finishing these schools, left to continue their education outside the Montenegrin borders, i.e. Abroad.

    The political reputation of Montenegro among the European public, as well as the political and poetic popularity of the Prince-King Nikola I Petrović contributed to the establishment of diplomatic relations with many European countries. With the establishment of diplomatic relations between Montenegro and the European states, there was an increase in the number of students who were educated abroad.

    Certain countries and their governments, with which diplomatic relations had been established, played a significant role in offering scholarships to the students of secondary schools, colleges and universities, since they would grant several scholarships a year to Montenegrin students who were being educated abroad. Italy, France, Serbia, Russia, Turkey, Bulgaria and other countries offered scholarships to a certain number of students from Montenegro for the studies at secondary schools and university institutions in their respective countries. Upon completing their education, only one third of Montenegrin youth returned to Montenegro to work in state institutions.

    ABSTRACT: The relationships between Ottoman Empire and Montenegro which declared its independence in 1878 were developed to a good point, especially during Abdul Hamid and Nikola’s reign. Thanks to these good relations, loan agreements were among the financial supports. In this presentation, two loan agreements signed in order to loan to Montenegro through Ottoman Bank will be mentioned and the effect of these two loan agreements on Ottoman-Montenegro relations will be discussed.

    ABSTRACT: After the decisions of the Congress of Berlin and positive outcome of the war with Ottoman Empire from 1876 to 1878, Montenegro became an independent state. This paper deals with the situation which also arose from this outcome, i.e. when a great number of the Muslims population decided to emigrate from the newly formed state. They emigrated towards Bosnia and Sandzak of Novi Pazar, and the emigration saw members of all society groups who feared possible violence of new authorities and the loss of privileges. They were called “mouhadzirs” or “mouhadzers”.

    The papers, which on pages of Ecrits Historiques deal with this topic can be divided into two categories: a) research papers that investigate mouhadzirs’ further destiny, directions of their migrations, reasons for emigration etc, and b) research papers dealing with the problem of emigration as the introduction to their land and properties being occupied by Montenegrin Orthodox settlers.

    ABSTRACT: The paper deals with the complicated diplomatic and political background of the events in the courts of these two Balkan countries in early 20th century. After it had become obvious that King Alexander Obrenovic was unlikely to have successors, Russian diplomatic representatives had to deal with many different, more or less apparent interests to inherit his throne. In the eve of, and immediately after the assassination of King Aleksandar and his wife, two dynasties, Petrovic and Karadjordjevic, were seen as the main contenders, but Russia also had to deal with the position of Austrian-Hungarian Empire, that fully opposed the two Balkan states coming under the rule of the same dynasty. Since this particularly applied to the Montenegrin dynasty, and since the Russian Tsar had strictly forbidden a nomination of the Russian Grand Prince Alexander Mihailovic, Peter Karadjordjevic was elected King of Serbia.

    • Adnan PEPIĆ, Novine Malumat o posjeti Knjaza Nikole Istanbulu 1899. godine, 239-248  Download

    ABSTRACT: After gaining the independence at the Congress of Berlin in 1878, relations between Montenegro and the Ottoman Empire were on a relatively high level. They were especially good during the reign of Prince Nikola and Sultan Abdulhamid the Second, mostly due to their mutual friendship. Such relations resulted in two visits of Prince Nikola to Istanbul, in 1883 and 1899. The second visit was widely commented in Istanbul daily newspapers. One of them was Malumat, which on several occasions published articles regarding the Prince’s visit. This paper intends to provide an overview of Malumat’s reporting on the Prince Nikola’s visit to Istanbul in 1899.

     

    • Massimo BUCARELLI, D’Annunzio, Italy and the Independence of Montenegro 1919-1920, 249-263  Download

    ABSTRACT: The aim of this work is not to focus on these well known aspects of the political and military action of D’Annunzio. Its purpose is rather to emphasize the connection between D’Annunzio’s plans, and the national questions in the Western Balkans at the end of the World War I. Above all, this paper strives to shed some light on all the initiatives taken by D’Annunzio with the aim to restore the independence of the Kingdom of Montenegro. There is no doubt, in fact, that he was one of the last political leaders in Italy and in Europe who fully supported and tried to do all he could for the survival of Montenegro as an independent and sovereign State.

    Specifically, there are three crucial questions, which the paper addresses: 1) when D’Annunzio seized Fiume in 1919 and ruled the city for 15 months, did he have a global plan for the political and territorial settlement of the Western Balkans or did he have in mind only the annexation of Fiume to Italy? 2) Provided that he had a plan for the Balkan nations and countries, what was the role which Montenegro was supposed to play in that strategy? 3) Did D’Annunzio try to accomplish his political and military plans alone with his entourage, or was he supported by the Italian government, or perhaps by some Italian political and military authorities?

     

    • Hatice ORUÇ, Ottoman Turkish Manuscripts about Montenegro in the reign of Sultan Abdülhamid II, 265-270  Download

    ABSTRACT: There are certain papers about Montenegro composed in the process of the Berlin Treaty of 1878 and afterwards. These papers, connected with the political, military, state and foreign policy of the Ottoman State, were first written during the reign of the Sultan Abdülhamid II and also continued to be produced in the times that followed. This paper deals with works of Münif Pasha, Kâmil Kapudân, Mehmed Subhi, Ahmed Tevfîk (translation from Serbian), Ahmed Sedad and Ismail Fazıl (Cebesoy) Pasha.

    These works, published in late 19th and early 20th century, were probably composed with the didactic purpose of providing information for the political and military milieu of the time and thus, they all give considerably significant information and knowledge about the history of Montenegro, its geography, administration, army, people, lifestyle and culture.

    • Žarko LEKOVIĆ, Drobnjak nakon Berlinskog kongresa, 279-293  Download

     

    ABSTRACT: The paper deals with the situation in Drobnjak area in the north-east of Montenegro that came under its jurisdiction after the Congress of Berlin. By its decisions, Tara was marked as the border between Montenegro and the Ottoman Empire. Despite a certain enlargement of territory after the war which had just ended, there were aspirations for a new enlargement in Montenegro. Due to this fact, Drobnjak was rich in events concerning the conflicts and upheavals that brought internal changes, surpassing large material shortage, and achievements in personal rights and freedom.

    This period is characterized by very frequent and violent conflicts on the Montenegrin-Ottoman border and by generally unstable conditions on the territory of Drobnjak. The conflicts were relentless, along with attacks, the stealing of cattle, killings and illegal commerce, which made the life of the population difficult and sometimes even unbearable. But a strong influence from Cetinje and its instructions and advice helped to somewhat ease the situation. Ottoman authorities built many watch towers and guard houses by Tara after 1878, cutting off very strong family relations and making it impossible for the Christian population to use land and pastures on both sides of the river.

     

    • Radenko ŠĆEKIĆ, Ideja crnogorske državne nezavisnosti u unutarpolitičkom životu Crne Gore krajem XX i početkom XXI vijeka, 295-308  Download

    ABSTRACT: The paper follows an idea of Montenegrin independence during the last 130 years. In the wide range of dates important to Monte-negro, 13th July is set aside as a synonym for „Montenegro‘s stability and a symbol of freedom.” Article 26 of the Berlin Treaty defined the international legal status of Montenegro, whereby „Montenegro’s independence was recognized by the Porte and all the High Contracting Parties that have not recognized it yet.” The Article meant that the Montenegrin independence was confirmed by the countries which had not previously done it, primarily by Turkey.

    July 13, 1941 is an equally important date in the modern Montenegrin history. In the decades following World War II, the significance and symbolism of July 13 was constantly emphasized in the Montenegrin public, as a date which should personify the free spirit and individuality of Montenegro, its courage and devotion to the ideals of honor and freedom.

    During 1992, the question of state status, i.e. of Montenegro staying united with Serbia in the form of FRY, represented a battlefield between the government and a portion of the opposition which advocated the independence of Montenegro. A referendum on the status of Montenegro was organized, and the option to stay within the federation won the support of over 90% of voters. Nevertheless, Montenegro continually sought to increase its sovereignty and independence from the federal state by transferring functions from the federal to a republic level, which reached its culmination at the referendum in May 2006.

     

    • Miomir DAŠIĆ, Politički i vojni odnosi Crne Gore i Osmanskog carstva 1878-1884, 309-323  Download

    ABSTRACT: This essay provides an overview of political and military relations of the Princedom of Montenegro and the Ottoman Empire from the Congress of Berlin in 1878, decisions of which Montenegro became territorially enlarged and internationally recognized as an independent country, until 1884 when the Istanbul Convention was signed between the two governments, which mainly settled the border disputes between the two previously bitter enemies. The Treaty of Berlin outlined the borders between Montenegro and the Ottoman Empire, but in drawing and marking the borders on site, there were serious disputes over marking the borders, dual ownership, mutual traffic, compensation for the property of Turkish subjects who emigrated from Montenegro, and over other problems on both sides of mutual border. Montenegrin government and the Porte initially contended over surrendering urban towns which the Ottoman Empire was in obligation to cede over to the Montenegrin state under the Treaty of Berlin (Kolašin, Podgorica with Spizza and Žabljak fortresses) along with certain territories (Lower Zeta, part of Vasojevići from the river Zlorečica to Lim), over establishing borders between Upper and Lower Vasojevići (between Trepča and Vinicika), the Šekular territory and other regions along the southeast Montenegrin border.
