This paper analyzes the theory of Islam as a religion that could have formed a rationalistic civilization, based on scientific progress, individualism and democracy. One of the representative studies on this topic is the work of Mustafa Akyol Reopening of Muslim Minds, in which the author uses the method of counterfactual analysis, posing the fundamental question: what would Islamic civilization look like if in the Sunni majority had not prevailed Ash’ari theology, but rationalistic, Mu’tazili theology? Although it could be said that the author of this study does not err when he concludes that Ash’ari occasionalism stopped the development of science in Islam, he nevertheless errs when he claims that the doctrines of voluntarism, predestination, and uncreatedness of the Qur’an, were generators of injustice in Islamic society. In this paper we tried to analyze the metaphysical foundations of these doctrines, re-examine the validity of the hypothesis about their harmfulness, and re-examine whether the observed harmful effects come from Islamic tradition or from the more recent attempts of modernization of Islam.

In this paper the author highlights the contemporary relevance of Machiavelli’s teaching as contained in The Prince and Discourses. In a dialogue with Claude Lefort and his groundbreaking interpretation of the Florentine (1972), this paper offers an alternative, subversive reading of Machiavelli’s theory of political conflict. At the same time, the author highlights the elements of a specific Machiavellian theory of recognition through a critical engagement with Honneth (1995). The author argues that the fundamentally democratic character of Machiavelli’s project is directly related to the ability of the plebs to recognize their novel function in the social field and to audaciously adopt queer “identity”. This is made possible only with the help and the support of the prince. In the text, the plebs represent a dynamic collation of diverse groups (of Others) which are being oppressed in the society. The plebs are invited to transform their desire not to be oppressed into a positive desire “to be” and become in such a way that enables them to maintain their difference in contrast to the greats. By discovering the “self” as a place of radical alterity, the plebs ceaselessly invent new modes of being which are opposed to the “regimes of the normal”. In this way the plebs become an inexhaustible source of innovations which are available for the entire citizenry. Queering of the plebs enables a higher degree of (our) common being in the society. The strength of a democratic society directly depends on the vitality of the plebs’ desire and their ability to imagine, produce and sustain new modes of life. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The aim of this paper is to examine the possibilities and scope of the participatory model of BIH libraries in the period of self-governing socialism for the purpose of rethinking the way of doing business and relations with library users through a new, participatory approach. Participatory activities in pre-war BIH libraries and theoretical assumptions of participatory librarianship can serve as a starting point for considering the current model of involving library users in their capacity as its members. The results of this paper will try to show that the participatory library model always depends on certain socio-political aspects of government, starting from different methodologies and ways of cooperation, but also that certain type of understanding of participation further implies wider civic engagement or verification of the existing social situation. The importance of this analysis is in a better understanding of the two types of participatory approaches in libraries that, due to redefining relationships with users, can lead to different forms of social action and management.

When we talk about the European idea, Europe as a geographical or cultural space, or especially about the European Union, we can often hear about the Founding Fathers of EU and the famous trio of Robert Schuman, Konrad Adenauer and Alcide De Gasperi, and eventually Jean Monnet with them. This is historically grounded and certainly justified. But very rarely we can hear about the great French philosopher Jacques Maritain and about his influence on the European project and Euro-Atlantic integration. This should not be seen as an injustice, but only as a curiosity. This paper, in which the author brings and expands some excerpts from his doctoral dissertation, seeks to shed some light on Maritain's role in this context, i.e. to try to look at the future of Europe in the light of his philosophy, and especially in the context of the issue of the relationship between politics and religion. In one sentence - over the past century, Maritain has played perhaps the most important role in shaping the idea of European and world unity, and despite everything that discourages us today, the future of Europe and then the whole world in the light of Maritain's philosophy is not dark and there is room for everyone in it. Is it possible and wise to think about the future of European unity without thinking about the world unity? If the unification of Europe is a good thing, is the unification of the world even better? Is the anthropological question the crucial one? How important is religion in the context of Europe and its future? What about secularity and secularism? What is the future of religion? Are Europe and EU (exclusively) Christian continent and project? Is democracy conceivable without Christianity? To what extent is religion/faith personal and private, and to what extent is it a public matter? What about the controversial relationship between religion and politics? Finally, what does all this mean for interreligious dialogue within the EU - especially between Jews, Christians and Muslims? – these are some of the issues that the author deals with in his work or just points to.

The essence of democracy is to enable citizens to participate in the decision-making process. In order to actively participate in the process of democratic decision-making, it is necessary to have an own view on certain issues. Based on the freely formed and expressed attitude of contemporary democracy, they ensure a consistent and clear application of the will of citizens in the process of making key political decisions. Bosnia and Herzegovina faces great challenges today. Citizens do not have the possibility to exercise passive voting rights under equal conditions. Normed human rights and freedoms are not exercised in practice. Citizens do not have a developed political culture and in a kind of vicious circle that is a consequence of material endangerment do not engage in political processes. The paper analyzes elements that influence the impossibility of carrying out socio-political processes in a democratic spirit, in a way that fits modern democratic countries.
