    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[Postmodernization and the Crisis of Law: Legal System and Rule of Law in „Brave New World“]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[Abstract: In the past few decades, due to far-reaching social changes caused by globalization and postmodernization, modern law and legal systems have changed significantly. Generally speaking, law has become less general, systematic, and hierarchical since the basic structural features of modern law changed.     New principles of the functioning of the legal system have taken advantage over the previous ones, i.e., instead of a public law model, a private law contracting model has established itself as the dominant way of regulating social relations. Moreover, the boundary between public and private law has become less clear, and new legal concepts, institutes, and disciplines have occurred while those which prevailed throughout the modern legal tradition have changed significantly. Postmodernization of law, among other things, brings a lot of negative “crisis” transformation, among which those worth mentioning are the spread of the neo-liberal law-and-order legal ideology and politics, the degradation of fundamental principles of the rule of law, changes in substantive and procedural criminal law for the sake of fast, efficient, and economic prosecution of criminal suspects, the breakdown of the (law of) welfare state (the latter being transformed into penal state), privatization of justice (e.g. judicial services), excessive juridization of social relations, and the transformation of legal subjectivity. In many important aspects, the postmodern transformations have taken contemporary law and legal systems back to the times of the early classical liberal legal system of the 18th and early 19th centuries.     The author argues that, in the process of their integration to European Union and the legal reform according to the European standards, the states should take into account the broader historical context of this process: the social and legal postmodernization which gave the law and legal system a new postmodern identity, on one hand, and the crisis of the concept of the rule of law, on the other.]]></dcterms:abstract>

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[Novelties in the Field of Alternative Measures and Sanctions in Juvenile Criminal Law in Bosnia and Herzegovina]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[In the last few years there is a process of reforming juvenile criminal law in Bosnia and Herzegovina. The main feature of this reform is reflected in the introduction of new legislative model of criminal status of juveniles, according to which the entire criminal status of juvenile perpetrators of crimes (substantive, procedural, enforcement) is being regulated by a single legislative text - Law on Protection and Treatment of Children and Juveniles in criminal Procedure. This law in almost identical form was originally adopted in the  Republic of Srpska (2010), then in the Brcko District of Bosnia and Herzegovina (2011), and finally in the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina (2014). In this paper author critically analyzes the changes brought about by the present legislative text in the field of alternative measures and sanctions, with emphasis on restorative justice (as the modern concept of social response to crime), which encountered in some of these alternative instruments dealing with juveniles in conflict with law.]]></dcterms:abstract>

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[The Effects of Foreign Direct Investments on Transition Economies: The Balkans Case]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[Abstract: The stabilized economic growth in the long-run lies ahead as an obstacle in the long road of development for many transition economies especially for those are in the Balkans. Some of the Balkan countries such as Croatia and Bulgaria have managed to get aboard to the European Union train. But for many others, the train has not arrived yet. Furthermore, many of those non-European Union member transition economies in the Balkans have to deal with an inheritance of a war economy experienced during early 90s. Today non-European Union member transition economies in the Balkans need to increase the capital flows to their countries for economic growth purposes. The literature on foreign direct investments suggest that there may be some positive effects on the economic growth of the host countries depending on many conditions - most commonly on absorptive capacities. However, are they really ready for this? Are the absorptive capacities in those countries at the extent in which enable them to extract benefits from foreign investments? The answer to this question is the key to truly understand the effects of foreign direct investments in those countries. Therefore, in this study, the effects of foreign direct investments on the economic growth of non-European Union member transition economies in the Balkans are investigated from the absorptive capacity perspective. This paper serves a role in comprehending the true dynamics of absorptive capacities measured through a new technique presented in this paper. The results confirm that current foreign direct investment flows to those non-European Union member Balkan countries are not able to work miracles given the absorptive capacities of the host countries.]]></dcterms:abstract>

    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[Autorica u radu analizira uređenje socijalno-ekonomskih prava djeteta normiranih u konvencijskom i domaćem pravu i otvara pitanje ko će ih i kako realizirati kada nadležni državni organi ne stvaraju pretpostavke za materijalnu i socijalnu sigurnost porodice s djecom. Ovo posebno što socio-ekonomske prilike roditelja, njihov radnopravni status, regionalne, statusne i druge okolnosti na strani roditelja djeteta determiniraju položaj djece, mogućnosti realizacije njihovih prava i odgovornost roditelja prema djeci. U tom kontekstu, u radu je naglašena potreba za drugačijim definiranjem mehanizama zaštite djece koji će djelotvornije doprinijeti ostvarivanju socijalnih prava djeteta, smanjenju siromaštva djece u Bosni i Hercegovini i osiguranju zajedničkih ciljeva zemalja EU u pogledu dječjeg siromaštva. Slijedom navedenog, cilj ovog rada je da se ukaže na propuste u zaštiti socijalno-ekonomskih prava djeteta koji su rezultat nedosljedne i nepravilne primjene postojećih zakonskih odredaba, ali i rezultat nepoštivanja prava djeteta garantiranih u međunarodnopravnim dokumentima koje Bosna i Hercegovina potpisuje i ratificira.  Ključne riječi: siromaštvo, socijalno-ekonomska prava djece, odgovornost roditelja, odgovornost države]]></dcterms:abstract>

    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[U slučaju neispunjena dužnosti roditelja da izdržavaju svoje maloljetno dijete, država se nije ograničila samo na primjenu sredstava u okviru porodičnog prava, već je, radi ostvarivanja prava na izdržavanje djeteta zagarantovanog međunarodnim dokumentima i nacionalnim zakonima, predvidjela i sredstva iz drugih pravnih područja. Krivično djelo Izbjegavanje izdržavanja predstavlja jedno od krivičnih djela iz glave XX Krivičnog zakona Federacije Bosne i Hercegovine: Krivična djela protiv braka, porodice i mladeži. U sklopu razmatranja ovog krivičnog djela sa kriminološkog aspekta,  u ovom radu bit će obrađena fenomenologija krivičnog djela izbjegavanja izdržavanja izvršenog u periodu od 2008. do 2013. godine na području Federacije Bosne i Hercegovine. Poseban osvrt će biti dat na  razloge ili motive zbog kojih je djelo izvršeno. Izvor podataka su pravomoćne presude Općinskih sudova u Federaciji Bosne i Hercegovine.

    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[Ukoliko bi građani bili osjećajni, kada je u pitanju socijalna zaštita socijalno osjetljivih kategorija stanovništva, a posebno djece, pravne norme jedva da bi bile i potrebne, a moralne norme bi bile dovoljan garant socijalne zaštite djece. No, pošto smo svjedoci porodične disfunkcionalizacije i njene intenzivne dezorganizacije te nadolazećeg plimnog talasa sveopće društvene desenzibilizacije, na državi je obaveza normiranja socijalne zaštite djece. Shodno tome i naša država je donijela brojne pravne akte i pristupila najznačajnim međunarodnim pravnim dokumentima kojima je garantovan visok stepen zaštite djece. U praksi to baš i ne izgleda tako. Pitanje provođenja onoga što su organi vlasti u zemlji preuzeli kao „breme na svojim plećima“ je na vrlo niskom nivou, što uveliko ugrožava pravnu sigurnost djece i dovodi u opasnost njihov socijalni status. Stepen jurizacije socijalne zaštite djece je na dosta višem nivou od faktizacije zagarantovanih prava. S druge strane, postoji još jedan očigledan problem. Mnogobrojnim zakonskim i podzakonskim pravnim aktima unutar države djeca su često dovedena na rub diskriminacije, jer je očigledno poželjnije biti rođen u jednom kantonu spram drugog ili u jednom entitetu spram drugog. Treći problem je odsustvo empatije i senzibiliteta onih koji vladaju spram onih kojima vladaju.  Ključne riječi: neravnopravnost, socijalna zaštita, dijete, društvo.]]></dcterms:abstract>

    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[U radu se propituju trendovi u suvremenim društvima koji utječu i na pravne sustave u kojima se imati nameće kao dominanta koja potire ono praiskonsko biti.  Evidentno je da ideologija neoliberalizma širi utjecaj na društvene i humanističke znanosti. Ukida se povijesna geneza obitelji, a pojedinac se podvrgava tržišnim zakonima i u sferi privatnog života.  Društvo tako postaje uronjeno u gospodarstvo, umjesto da je gospodarstvo uronjeno u društvo. Tržišna demokracija nudi se kao zamjena za socijalnu demokraciju, a  budući da tržište nije podređeno etičkim normama ono osiromašuje društvene odnose koji se temelje na uzajamnosti i solidarnosti. Temelj obiteljskih odnosa je ljubav. Siromaštvo ni u kojem slučaju ne smije biti spomenuto u zakonu, niti se smije pojavljivati u obrazloženjima sudskih odluka kojima se roditelje kažnjava oduzimanjem roditeljskog prava.  Ključne riječi: siromaštvo djece, obiteljsko pravo, socijalna država.]]></dcterms:abstract>

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[Financial Compensation for Mental Pain Caused by a Death of a Close Person]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[Abstract: In normal life circumstances, due to a harmful event which results in a death of a person, it is an undisputed fact that the closest relatives of a deceised person experience mental distress.The closest relatives are indirectly damaged, and the right for compensation for mental distress that they have suffered from due to the death of a close person is the right on behalf of the indirect loss they have experienced.    As the mental distress belongs to the scope of an immaterial damage, an intangible loss and there is no possibility to go back to the previous state of things, the only way to compensate for this type of loss is monetary compensation. The amount of money that is adjudicated in these cases represent satisfaction for the loss that has been experienced and are a mean which serves the purpose of relieving the pain for the loss of a close person.     It is widely known that the pain a parent experiences, especially the one a mother experiences when she loses a child, and the trauma children experence when they lose a parent are of high intensity.    Children will suffer form the experience longer than older persons due to their youth. The pain parents experience is more permanent than the pain a spouse experiences, especially if it is a young spouse from a short marriage since there is a possibility to establish a new marriage or cohabitation. All these circumstances are of the vital importance when determining the amount of money]]></dcterms:abstract>

    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[Abstract: The article presents an inclusive framework on three major constructs namely intercultural communication competence, service reliability and customer satisfaction in the grocery retail settings in Malaysia. The constructs’ validity and reliability were examined based on structural equation modeling. Based on the proposed framework, a number of propositions were developed to facilitate empirical investigation on intercultural communication competences of the selected grocery retail outlets. This contributes to the development of a theory based path model that links the intercultural communication competence to service reliability and customer satisfaction. While numerous scholars have considered the extensive topics of service quality and customer satisfaction, however, none of those studies explored on the critical role of intercultural communication competence and incorporated the construct with perceived service quality and customer satisfaction. One of the most critical finding of the study is the dimension of perceived service quality and intercultural communication competence have positive relationship and it also progressive finding for further research on other dimensions of perceived service quality.]]></dcterms:abstract>
