• Nevenka BOGOJEVIĆ-GLUŠČEVIĆ, Provisions of the Medieval Cattaro Statute on Testament and their Application in Notary Practice, 7-24   DOWNLOAD

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.

ABSTRACT: Napoleon’s France could treat Montenegrins as either opponents or potential allies, but in both cases, it needed to get to know them well. Colonel Somier under-took the adventure of collecting the necessary information in the field during his research visit to Montenegro. The most significant information he collected was about the population number, especially those at the disposal of the army, about the economic resources of the country and the political and administrative situation. Considering the ever-open possibility of invading Montenegro, it was important to know the communication system within the country and to own topographic material on it. The information which was then gathered and later printed in the travel memoirs Historical and Political Travel to Montenegro represent an important historical source, especially since they were collected at a time when Montenegro had a modest state administration and consequently a modest output of documents i.e. historical sources. Viala’s work as a historical source needs to be approached critically like all narrative testimonies.

ABSTRACT: In the paper, the author considers the geopolitical importance of Illyrian provinces. The English and the Austrian attacked Illyrian provinces in 1814, the former at sea and the latter on land. The Austro-British conquest of Illyrian provinces was completed in April 1814. The example of the Illyrian provinces proves Napoleon’s intention to rule European territory. A subtle military strategist he was, Napoleon saw the European stage as a battlefield in which audacity could mitigate or disable opponent’s action. Such notion of Europe suffered defeat and marked the beginning of the “agreement of nations” in Europe several months before the Congress of Berlin.

ABSTRACT: The article, based on the source materials from Venetian archives (Archivio di Stato di Venezia, Archivio della Scuola Dalmata dei Ss. Giogrio e Triffone) and on the previous results of historiography, presents main directions from the history of migrations from Montenegro to Venice in the period from the fifteenth to the seventeenth century. Chronological frame and periods of the most fequent migrations of the Montenegrins to Venice has been discussed, the way they were called in sources, places of their residence within the Venetian sestieri and parishes, their occupations, economic means and standard, their every day life within the circle of their families and friends, religious life and relations with Venetian ecclesiastical institutions and individuals, as well as their connections to the community of immigrants from the wider area of East Adriatic sea. In the conclusion, it is emphasized that migrations of the Montenegrins to Venice are an important, but not satisfactorily researched segment of history of this area and that they were an integral part of trans-Adriatic communications during the transitional period from the Middle Ages to the Early Modern Age

ABSTRACT: The text was devoted to the phenomenon of nation and national historical process. The aim of this text was to help in providing answers to questions like: why the pulsation of the nation and of the national has been still so powerful, in spite of the fact that after technical –technological revolution ‘nothing is as it used to be’. How come the nation and the national –as an ideological trend, remain ‘open’ questions or actual problems, potential or interfering factor that has been an unavoidable, consistent part of almost all current social processes including those in economical and social fields and political and cultural fields? For that sake, the article was divided into five parts.

The first one relates to the difficulties and temptations of defining the nation and the national. In that sense a genesis of understanding the nation and the national was composed moving from the very first features of their actualization to their developmental forms.

The second part focuses on the evaluation of the significance of the phenomenon of the nation and national for historical process. In this part, presented are different modern theoreticians’ explanations of why they though that forming of modern nations meant the great step forward in the development of modern democratic society, along with processes of socialization and affirmation of human personality.

The third part deals with possible positive and negative impact of the national on historical process, especially on its democratic component. A set of most important ideological and theoretical views have been elaborated  here as a phenomenon or an attempt was made to apply the latter concretely upon history.

The fourth part tries to provide explanation to some temptations that inevitably follow every realization of this phenomenon, especially if made in the pantheistic form.

The focus of the fifth part is the essence and contents of the use of the nation and the national. The stress was put on the misuse that are being produced through different nationalistic ideas and social and political movements inspired on such bases, affirmation of theory of socialist nation and attempts to construct a new conflict-less society, different nationalisms and chauvinism on such a platform.

ABSTRACT: Although the private trade used to be unwanted from the very beginning due to political and ideological viewpoint after the WW2, it survived to on a larger scale until the middle of 1948. Its significance was constantly minimized, though different measures imposed by authorities. The basic measures against the influence of private trade, before its final elimination, had been supervising of wholesale trade by founding state owned trade enterprises, introduction of the system of planned distribution of goods, punishing merchants for crimes based on war profit, nationalization from 1946, fighting against economic sabotage and speculation. Along with these measures being suspicious against existing trade staff and trying to provide professionals to trade as an economic  branch, the state herself has organized trade schools and courses for training new staff for work in the field of economy. In order not to provoke bigger disorganization in supplying of the citizens in the period when the participation of the state and cooperative sector in the wholesale trade had been rather insignificant, and foreign policy reasons had been basic reasons for postponing the final nationalization of retail trade until 1948. However, even the nationalization of 1948 has not been a complete one. In spite of all a couple of hundreds of private trade shops, the most of them in Serbia, i.e. Belgrade have survived as they were needed to supply people with  necessary good.
