AUTHORS SYNOPSES UDK 316.647.82-055.2:001 Mirjana ULE: THE HIDDEN DISCRIMINATION OF WOMEN IN SCIENCE Teorija in praksa, Ljubljana 2013, Vol. L, No. 3 4, pg. 469 481 684 On the basis of comparative statistical data and the results of research among doctors of science in Slovenia we find that the governance of science in Slovenia is gender-biased. The data show that women scientists obviously face aggravating circumstances in their progress up the career ladder, that women are also discriminated in their payment for work and that they receive less honour and prizes. At the same time, the research results show that discrimination in the governance of science is not only limited to women. The basic reasons for bias in science are nepotism and affiliation with lobbies and interest groups. We speak of hidden discrimination because discrimination is a cumulative effect of many separate, yet mutually balanced factors that result in an unbalanced proportion of both sexes in the scientific hierarchy and decision-making positions in science. Keywords: science politics, discrimination, gender bias, vertical segregation, glass ceiling index UDK 001.895-055.2:316.662 Alja ADAM: THE CONCEPT OF CREATIVITY, GENDER INEQUALITY AND POSITION OF WOMEN INNOVATORS IN SLOVENIA Teorija in praksa, Ljubljana 2013, Vol. L, No. 3 4, pg. 482 502 The article deals with an analysis of the concept of creativity in relation to the gender perspective, and focuses on the relationship between creativity and innovation by drawing attention to the women who work in Slovenia as independent innovators. In the first part of the text, I introduce the theory of the anthropologist Liepa, which establishes a parallel between creativity and inventorship, and I illuminate the concept of improvisational creativity presented by Hallam and Ingold. In the second part of the text, I introduce an analysis of the interviews made with the innovators and point out why the definition of creativity, which is connected to the relationship between innovation/technology, is unsuitable for conceptualising the position of women. The article addresses the concept of improvisation as an epistemological model through which we can reinterpret gender roles and relations in a positive and creative way. Keywords: creativity, innovation, women/innovators in Slovenia, improvisation, gender perspectives, technology

The analysed elections are an important milestone in the evolution of the Slovenian democratic parliamentary and party system and behaviour at the national level. The article examines the instability of the electoral capital of the electorate, as well as the decrease in parties electoral capital with respect to modes of the future democratic governance system and related problemsolving. Keywords: elections, national parliament, political parties, voters, electoral programmes, coalition, opposition 685 UDK 364.2:339.5/.7 Boštjan UDOVIČ: INDIVIDUAL ECONOMIC SECURITY AS A PRECONDITION FOR ENHANCING INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS?: THE CASE OF THE REGULATION (EC) 883/2004 Teorija in praksa, Ljubljana 2013, Vol. L, No. 3 4, pg. 530 548 The article deals with the link between individual economic security and international business in the European Union (EU). The main purpose is to present a historical overview as well as the main characteristics of Regulation no. 883/04, which is aimed at assuring the coordination of social welfare systems. We also consider the implications the Regulation holds for the development of international business within the EU. The article is based around the notion that the importance of welfare growth, during the formation of the European Economic Community, was mainly perceived as a vehicle for increasing international business and establishing mechanisms for the coordination of social welfare systems. The latter thus means that both were seen as complements instead of substitutes. Keywords: economic security, international business, Regulation 1408/71, Regulation 883/04, individuum, coordination of social security systems

Gregor LESJAK: (FORENSIC) EXPERTISE, RELIGION AND DRUGS: THE CASE OF THE SACRAMENT OF TRANSITION Teorija in praksa, Ljubljana 2013, Vol. L, No. 3 4, pg. 549 566 UDK 29:613.83 686 The article expands a forensic expert opinion on certain aspects of religious or spiritual use of ibogaine in Slovenia, written by the author on the request of a defendant. The argument recognises the religious use of entheogens in the tradition of Phanke s Good Friday experiment and even suggests that evidently religious settings may be less important when the experience is taking place in a New Age context. Available public documents on initiations with ibogaine into the Slovenian New Age community Sacrament of Transition are considered. Relations between the Slovenian state and religious communities are also explored at a time when the recognition of genuine religiosity has been demanded as a condition for achieving the legal status of a religious community. Keywords: religious communities, state, religion, new religious and spiritual movements, New Age, drugs, entheogens, ibogaine, Sacrament of Transition, mystical experience UDK 070.13:347.121.2 Rok ČEFERIN: THE INTERFERENCE OF THE SENSATIONALIST MEDIA WITH THE PERSONALITY RIGHTS OF LEGAL SUBJECTS: THE CASE LAW OF THE EUROPEAN COURT OF HUMAN Teorija in praksa, Ljubljana 2013, Vol. L, No. 3 4, pg. 567 583 In the article, the author addresses the issue of the collision between the freedom of the press on one hand, and the right to privacy and the right to personal dignity on the other, as defined in the case law of the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR). The author establishes that the freedom of the press is seriously threatened in today s global society, and due to the proliferation of sensationalist media the personality rights of those individuals on which the media reports are also threatened to an ever greater extent. He is in favour of governmental authorities taking on a more active role in regulating the position of the media in society, as well as of the limited introduction of awards of punitive damages for sensationalist yellow press. As his method of argumentation, the author applies an analysis of the case law of the ECHR, taking the findings of legal theory in the field of human rights law into account.

Based on the results, the following proposals are offered for the reformed model: (1) to amend Article 8 of the Constitution; (2) to correct the Act Regulating the Internal Organisation and System of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs; (3) to amend Article 21 on publication of the Decree on Publishing in the Official Gazette of the Republic of Slovenia; (4) and to adopt the Government decision Translation and redaction of the judgements and decisions of international courts and arbitral tribunals. Keywords: generally accepted principles of international law, customary rules of general international law, Article 8 of the Constitution of the Republic of Slovenia, sources of international law, Article 38 of the Statute of the International Court of Justice in the Hague 687 Drago KOS: ANALYSIS OF MOSQUE SITING IN LJUBLJANA Teorija in praksa, Ljubljana 2013, Vol. L, No. 3 4, pg. 603 621 UDK 28:726(497.4Ljubljana) An analysis of the decades-long search for a site for an Islamic religious and cultural centre in Ljubljana highlights several key reasons which have caused the project to remain unfulfilled. The initial impulses and motives to erect a mosque were connected with piety values, and in the first phase specific ideas for the site of the mosque suggested the vicinity of Plečnik s Žale

Ljubljana s biggest cemetery. The political emancipation of the Islamic population in Yugoslavia played an important role in these developments. However, after two decades of discussions, a nationalist and exclusivist interpretation of Plečnik s architecture rendered any such site officially completely unacceptable. Later, the search for a suitable site turned from representative areas to less visible, hidden and even degraded locations. A mosque or, rather, a house of prayer was only acceptable if its Islamic architecture was not too obvious and did not threaten traditional spatial identities. What has been recommended is an abstract mimicry that would conceal the Islamic nature of the planned building from the lay public. In support of these ideas there has been an ambitious intention: to build the mosque in the emerging European Islamic style. This may even mean that it would no longer be necessary to hide the mosque, but to proudly present the new building as an example of the integrative and creative abilities of European/Slovenian architecture and (post)modern society in general. Keywords: mosque, multiculturalism, tolerance, integration, spatial identity 688 UDK 159.9.016.1:165.12 Franc HUDEJ: DUALISM OF BODY AND SOUL Teorija in praksa, Ljubljana 2013, Vol. L, No. 3 4, pg. 622 641 The dualism of body and soul is present in theology and the sacred books of most religions, as well as in philosophical and psychological works. Descartes realised that the body is composed of matter, the soul is not the body and that ultimately the soul is infinite. Spinoza opposed Descartes idea of the dualism of soul and body. He realised that matter is behind all the features of infinity, indeterminacy and going so everything reveals its origins in matter. The latest research in the field of the live cell genome and the brain do not support the dualism of body and soul. The body is not only what we see and touch and the soul is not a separate entity but an integral part of the process in the neural network. Damasio notes that the human body is a complex and integrated whole with a brain that is constantly changing. Modern neuroscience recognises that all human mental activities attributable to the soul arise from the brain and that the brain and body form a single organism. Keywords: dualism, body, soul, genetics, neural network, awareness

Teorija in praksa, Ljubljana 2013, Vol. L, No. 3 4, pg. 642 657 Razvoj metodologije družboslovnega raziskovanja je v zadnjem desetletju nakazal številne spremembe v razumevanju raziskovalnih pristopov, predvsem na področju združevanja kvalitativnih in kvantitativnih metod. Pristop, za katerega se je uveljavilo ime refleksivna metodologija, pa večji poudarek namenja tudi spremembam v polju kvalitativne metodologije. Članek se v tem pogledu ukvarja z dvema uveljavljenima tehnikama, utemeljeno teorijo in induktivno etnografijo, ki vsaka zase ponujata specifične rešitve za ključna raziskovalna vprašanja v okviru kvalitativne metodologije. Ambicija članka je prepoznati raziskovalni potencial, ki nastane z združevanjem obeh pristopov. Vprašanja, na katera odgovarja članek, so povezana z dilemami o smiselnosti združevanja obeh pristopov, potencialnih prednostih, ki jih združevanje prinaša, ter, na koncu, identifikaciji metodološkega konteksta, ki takšen pristop sploh omogoča. Ključni pojmi: utemeljena teorija, induktivna etnografija, združevanje metod, kvalitativna metodologija, refleksivna metodologija 689 Ognjen PRIBICEVIC: VELIKA SPREMEMBA: VOLITVE V SRBIJI LETA 2012 IN NJIHOV VPLIV NA VZHODNI BALKAN Teorija in praksa, Ljubljana 2013, Vol. L, No. 3 4, pg. 658 670 UDK 324(497.11) 2012 V članku analiziramo najpomembnejše rezultate predsedniških in parlamentarnih volitev leta 2012. Dvanajst let po padcu avtoritarnega režima Slobodana Miloševića se je v Srbiji zgodila korenita politična sprememba. Novo vlado sta sestavili dve stranki iz Miloševićevega časa: Srbska socialistična stranka (SSS) in Srbska napredna stranka (SNS), ki je bila ustanovljena po razpadu Šešljeve Srbske radikalne stranke. Tretja članica koalicije je nova stranka Združene regije Srbije pod vodstvom Mladjana Dinkića (prejšnja G17 Plus). Treba je poudariti, da sta se tako Socialistična stranka kot Napredna stranka spremenili in sta na ravni izjav sprejeli prodemokratično in proevropsko politiko. Težek gospodarski položaj, napačna strategija Demokratične stranke, ki je vodila v predčasne

predsedniške volitve, in krepitev Socialistične stranke so povzročili poraz Borisa Tadića na predsedniških volitvah in poraz njegove stranke na parlamentarnih volitvah. Poleg tega je Demokratična stranka zavzela napačno strategijo v odnosu do Napredne stranke. Na začetku ji je pomagala pri odcepitvi od Srbske radikalne stranke, pozneje pa je SNS obtožila, da Srbijo vodi v vojno. Na območju Zahodnega Balkana je vladal precejšen dvom glede sprememb v Srbiji. Glavni razlogi za ta skepticizem so radikalna preteklost voditeljev Srbske napredne stranke in nekatere izjave novega srbskega predsednika Tomislava Nikolića. Po drugi strani pa so največje zahodne sile pozdravile spremembe v Srbiji, saj verjamejo, da bo nova vlada hitreje reševala vprašanje Kosova.
