    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[Greater mobility of students, better conditions for studying, more practice, competition in the domestic and European market - these are characteristics of Bologna system which are partially achieved in B&amp;H, according to previous researches. Students are more likely to say: “Each professor has its own Bologna system’’. The purpose of this study is to see real situation on one private University in B&amp;H from students’ perspective. Questionnaire is designed and used to survey randomly selected students from University. Data were analyzed by using descriptive statistics, Chi-square, regression and correlation. Findings show that knowledge about Bologna system of education is low and the main reason is low University role in informing students about current educational system. Likewise, students perceive poor engagement of professors as a worst thing about Bologna, but, despite all disadvantages and advantages, they think Bologna system of education is better than traditional system.    Keywords: Bologna system, education, student perception, B&amp;H.  ]]></dcterms:abstract>

    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[Over the past decade, the traditional purchasing and logistics functions have evolved into a broader strategic approach to materials and distribution management known as supply chain management (SCM). Effective SCM has become a potentially valuable way of securing competitive advantage and improving organizational performance since competition is no longer between organizations, but among supply chains. Facing uncertain environments, firms have strived to achieve greater supply chain collaboration to leverage the resources and knowledge of their suppliers and customers. This research conceptualizes and develops five dimensions of SCM practice and tests the relationships between SCM practices, competitive advantage, and organizational performance in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Research will be conducted via questionnaire and the target groups are the companies in Bosnia and Herzegovina with developed supply chain management. According to the previous researches the results should indicate that higher levels of SCM practice can lead to enhanced competitive advantage and improved organizational performance. Also, competitive advantage can have a direct, positive impact on organizational performance.

    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[Paper refers to Liberalism and Multiculturalism as normative theories. Over the basic ideas of those theories goal is to make an introduce/overview of main interactions and influences. As result of interactions between Liberalism and Multiculturalism there are a lot of different concepts on social relations and on Individuality, Community, Freedom, Rights, Equality and Good Life as part of discussion that is not only in focus of Academic community but in focus of those who we know as policy makers or decision makers. It seems that the discussion on those topics as we mentioned will stay open and maintaine crucial influence on the future architecture of social relations and status of basic questions that are in core of the discussion.      Sažetak: Rad se bavi liberalizmom i multikulturalizmom kao normativnim teorijama. Preko temeljnih pojmova kojima se koriste i problemskog područja zajedničkog, objema teorijama u radu se nastoji ponuditi uvid u njihove složene odnose i utjecaje. Ti odnosi za rezultat imaju mnoštvo različitih koncepcija uređenja društvenih odnosa koji se tiču individue, zajednice, slobode, prava, dobrog života, jednakosti kao dio rasprava koje nisu u fokusu pažnje isključivo akademske zajednice već i onih u čijim su rukama mehanizmi moći i odlučivanja. Čini se kako će takve rasprave još dugo važiti za otvorene i izvršiti presudan utjecaj na buduću arhitekturu društvenih odnosa i status temelnjnih pitanja koja (pitanja) rasprava u sebi sadrži.]]></dcterms:abstract>

    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[Institutional (in) ability of the Dayton agreement to integrate conflicting national community politically and ideologically in a democratic community, caused different and often conflicting opinions on &quot;the spirit of Dayton&quot; and the consequences of such a regulation on the viability of the Bosnian society and the state of Bosnia and Herzegovina itself. The authors elaborate such disagreements on the system of government on the theoretical, legal and political level, on one hand. On the other hand, the authors give arguments that the thesis that the constitutional order of BiH ignores its financial sovereignty concluding that Bosnia and Herzegovina is financialy sovereign as one confederation could be. In the core of the legal debate on state regulation are different approaches to the allocation of responsibilities between state and entities, and to the organization of government. In this debate, the dominant question is whether Bosnia and Herzegovina is considered a federation or a confederation. In the disagreement of the national and political elite, the conflict based on ethno-national conception of ethnic homogeneity and national sovereignty over their territories, is dominant.  The solution for the viability of Bosnia and Herzegovina is observed through two conceptual levels. In the first one, the involvement of the international community, especially the European Union, in designing the changes of  Dayton seems inevitable. Per second one, Bosnia and Herzegovina will be left to reconcile by herself the present irreconcilable differences of their national political elites. In both cases, the minimum acceptable framework for all legal solutions should include the establishment of mechanisms for the protection of equal individual collective rights, equality of the constituent peoples in the entire national territory, including minority rights, and the adoption and implementation of international charters and conventions on human rights.      Sažetak: Institucionalna (ne)mogućnost odredbi Daytonskog sporazuma da integriraju politički i ideološki suprostavljene nacionalne zajednice u demokratsku zajednicu izazvala je različite, često i oprečne stavove „o duhu Daytona“ i posljedicama ovakvog uređenja po samu održivost društva i države BiH. Autori elaboriraju s jedne strane, neslaganja oko ovakvog državnog uređenja na teorijsko-pravnom i političkom nivou. S druge strane, autori argumentiraju tezu po kojoj ustavno uređenje BiH zanemaruje njenu finansijsku suverenost, iz čega izvlače tezu da je BiH finansijski suverena koliko i jedna konfederacija. U centru pravne debate o državnom uređenju stoje različiti pristupi u raspodjeli nadležnosti između države i entiteta, i organizaciji državne vlasti. U ovoj debati dominirajuće je pitanje treba li se Bosna i Hercegovina smatrati federacijom ili konfederacijom. U neslaganju političkih nacionalnih elita dominira sukob etno-nacionalnih nacrta o etničkim homogenostima i nacionalnim suverenostima nad svojim teritorijama. Izlaz za opstojnost Bosne i Hercegovine se sagledava sa dva konceptualna nivoa. U prvom se involviranje međunarodne zajednice, prije svega Evropske unije, u oblikovanje promjena Daytonskog sporazuma čini neminovnim. Po drugom, Bosna i Hercegovina će biti prepuštena samoj sebi i moraće sama da pomiri sadašnje nepomirljive razlike svojih nacionalnih političkih elita. U oba slučaja minimum prihvatljivog okvira za sva pravna rješenja trebao bi obuhvatiti uspostavljanje jednakih mehanizama zaštite individualnih kolektivnih prava, ravnopravnost konstitutivnih naroda na cijeloj državnoj teritoriji, uključujući prava nacionalnih manjina, te usvajanje i provođenje međunarodnih povelja i konvencija o zaštiti ljudskih prava.]]></dcterms:abstract>

    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[The French Revolution was preceded by a long intellectual and ideological preparation that was significantly marked by works of Jean Jacques Rousseau, especially by his Social contract. Hence, the Rousseau is one of many french thinkers whose teachings influenced this epochal event and inspired french revolutionaries during the whole revolutionary period. It is considered that Rousseau announced the French revolution and was its guide. From Burke to Quinet and Taine, many in the French revolution recognized precisely his dominant influence. And they were right, especially if we take into consideration the widely accepted Francois Furet&#039;s opinion on how exactly the Revolution proclaimed itself the heir of Rousseau and that Rousseau&#039;s principle according to which no one can rule unless authorized by the people, gathered without differences, all the revolutionary currents. Taking into account his undoubted contribution and the fact that his political theory in general, and especially his concept of indivisible and inalienable popular sovereignty, despite certain internal contradictions, is the culmination and ultimate logical consequence of the pre-revolutionary bourgeois political thought, the author&#039;s intention in this work is to show how Rousseauism influenced the French revolution and the political activities of the revolutionary leaders.    Sažetak: Francuskoj revoluciji prethodila je duža intelektualna i ideološka priprema koju su u značajnoj mjeri obilježila djela Žan Žak Rusoa, posebice njegov Drušveni ugovor. Otuda je Ruso jedan od brojnih francuskih mislilaca čija su učenja uticala na ovaj epohalni događaj i koja su nadahnjivala francuske revolucionare u toku čitavog revolucionarnog perioda. Često se smatralo da je upravo Ruso najavio Francusku revoluciju i poslužio joj kao vodič. Od Berka, preko Kinea, pa do Tena, mnogi su u Francuskoj revoluciji prepoznali upravo njegov pretežan uticaj. I bili su u pravu, posebice ako se ima u vidu i široko prihvaćeno mišljenje Fransoa Firea o tome kako se upravo Revolucija proglasila Rusoovim baštinikom, te kako je Rusoov princip sukladno kojemu niko ne može da vlada ukoliko nije ovlašten od strane naroda, okupljao, bez razlike, sve revolucionarne struje. Uzimajući u obzir Rusoov nesumnjiv doprinos kao i činjenicu da je njegova politička teorija u cjelini, a posebice njegova koncepcija nedjeljive i neotuđive narodne suverenosti, uprkos pojedinim unutrašnjim suprotnostima, vrhunac i krajnja konsekvencija predrevolucionarne građanske političke misli, namjera je autorice da u radu prikaže uticaj rusoizma na Francusku revoluciju i na političko djelovanje revolucionarnih vođa.]]></dcterms:abstract>

When targeting specialization, employees of the business units are divided into very small units, according to some academics, combining of business and specialization of employees aims in the businesses.   Simplification of business units as small and narrow or combining of jobs, enrichment of jobs, improving of jobs relate structuring of business. The mechanics of the business structure depends on business units subdivide and detailed descriptions. All these mean that business units show elastic defines organically. For this reason, the possibility of specialization depends on settlement within the business.     This study connects specialization and business units. “How does specialization ensure?” “Should business-unit area be large or not?” “Is there any optimum point for the business is of specialization?” “Is there any impact of the business structure on the specialization?” The study seeks answer to the above mentioned questions.

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[The Role of Qualifications of Accounting Profession in the Prevention and Detection of Accounting Frauds in Companies in Bosnia And Herzegovina]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[The meaning and purpose of preparing and presenting financial statements of legal entities is collecting true and fair information from different users of financial statements who are on financial positions, which results in cash flows of the legal entity during a determined period. Unfortunately, the practice of financial reporting in the world, and here, largely weighed down by using illegal accounting techniques aimed showing financial position and success in accordance with the interests of the accountant / manager / owner of the company. The public expects auditors to detect all frauds in an entity committed by employees and managers. Unfortunately, the expectation that the auditor detects all accounting fraud committed in an entity is only a utopia for those who do not know the role and task of the audit. Hope for more efficient detection of accounting fraud today is a new discipline of accounting - forensic accounting and a new accounting professional title - forensic accountant. Unfortunately, in Bosnia and Herzegovina’s higher education institutions there is no systematic and scientific study of the discipline of forensic accounting, or an aim to implement the training and certification program for forensic accountant. The consequences of this situation are extremely negative for the whole economy, whereas business scams in the financial statements are followed, detected and prevented by the supervisory authorities and external auditors in accordance with their domain of activity, but research and practice around the world has shown that this is still an insufficient type of prevention.     The purpose of this paper is to provide a comparative overview of the roles of various qualifications of accounting profession in the active prevention and detection of accounting frauds in the companies, while the final aim of this paper is the presentation of relevant characteristics of forensic accounting as a relatively young scientific discipline, as well as highlighting the role of forensic accountant as a new accounting professional qualification in the fight against accounting frauds.    Keywords: accounting fraud, certified accounting technician, certified accountant, external auditor, forensic accountant.     ]]></dcterms:abstract>
