Invisible Archives: Makedonka – Organ of the WAF (1944- 1952), Historical Experiences and Cultural Memory

Review of the collective volume “Invisible Archives: Makedonka – Organ of the WAF (1944–1952), historical experiences and cultural memory”, published by the Centre for Research of Nationalism and Culture (CINIK), Skopie, Republic of North Macedonia, 2022. ISBN 978-608-66464-7-9.

Relationship between justice and economic growth: the effects of rule of law and democracy

ABSTRACT This study analyses the effects of justice on economic growth. In this context, the study investigates the impact of justice on per capita income in 43 middle-income countries between 2005–2021 with Parks-Kmenta, Beck-Katz estimators and the extended mean group estimator (AMG). Rule of law and democracy variables are used as justice indicators. National income per capita is used as an indicator of economic growth, and national income, fixed capital investments, fertility rates, public expenditures, education expenditures, life expectancy and openness to internationalization are used as control variables. The findings show that the rule of law has a positive effect on per capita GDP in Albania, Armenia, Ecuador, Jordan, Malaysia, North Macedonia, South Africa, Thailand and El Salvador. Democracy only has a positive effect on GDP per capita in Turkey. The study contributes to the limited literature on the relationship justice and economic grow. It differs from the literature by analysing the effects of the rule of law and democracy both on a country group basis and country-specific effects.

Silver from the North

Following Strabo, the mines at Damastion and in its wider region have traditionally been localized in western Illyria. But for several reasons the only known ancient silver mine, west of the Axios, in the Openika hills up modern Ohrid, is no option. Findspots of coins of the Damastion type, minted after the Chalkidian model, however hint at the wider Skupi/Skopje basin as an area of circulation and as a center of silver commerce. Two ancient mining districts can be located not far off, to its east and north, in the regions of Kratovo (in modern North Macedonia) and (somewhat later) Ulpianum (in Kosovo or southern Serbia). From both districts, in the first half of the 4th c., mineral silver travelled south via the Axios Valley and the Anthemous region to the federal Chalkidian mint at Olynthos. The mines in the Kratovo district bordered on Hellenized Paionia, whereas those in the north, belonging to Dardania, were far less in touch with Greek civilization. Damastion’s location, probably in the Paionian borderlands, accounts for the Greek character of its coins. They became models for those from Dardanian mines which, however, soon fell off Greek standards. Nonetheless, Damastion kept close connections with the Chalkidians: soon after the Peloponnesian War it had been founded by the Mendaians and other groups including refugees from Aigina. Chalkidian economic connections with the Dardanian north, based on silver trade, were an impulse for a defensive alliance that the Illyro-Dardanian king Grabos concluded around 357 with the Chalkidians against Philip. Extremely short-lived, it was cancelled by the Olynthians when they accepted Philip’s offer of a symmachy. They threw the stele inscribed with their Dardanian alliance into a river flowing by their city even before it was fully incised.

The power of women in the success of business family: A case study of Kosovo, Albania and North Macedonia

The main objective of this research is to emphasize the significant role women hold in leading family businesses in transitional countries such as Kosovo, North Macedonia, and Albania. It aims to demonstrate how women’s leadership can positively influence business performance, economic advancement and social development in these regions where traditional gender norms are shifting. Additionally, this study explores how empowering women in leadership roles can foster innovation, strengthen resilience, and ensure long-term sustainability for family-owned businesses ultimately contributing to the broader economic progress of these transitioning economies. This research aims to analyze family support, cultural factors and the influence of education on the advancement of women in leadership positions with a particular focus on family businesses. In this empirical research, 490 women from the countries above were included and the sample was randomly selected due to a lack of formal data. The results of the analyses were presented through descriptive analysis, Pearson correlation, Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) and T-test. The results indicate that family support has already a significant impacted advancement. Similarly, cultural factors have a positive influence. These factors have changed and are no longer obstacles to women's advancement as in the past, although in some rural countries this is still seen as an obstacle. Another important factor is education where women prioritize before taking leadership positions and continue with various training even after taking positions to be fully prepared to achieve their business objectives.

Costs of treating serious adverse effects of drugs used for treatment of obesity: comparison of selected European countries

Drugs for the treatment of obesity show significant effectiveness, but the adverse effects (ADRs) of these drugs are numerous and varied, and some of them are highly cost-generating. Our research aimed to define the health care utilization pattern in treating ADRs of antiobesity therapy, to compare the costs of treating these ADRs among selected European countries, and to identify the key cost drivers. A comparative analysis of the costs of treating the ADRs of antiobesity drugs in 10 European countries (seven EU members and three from the Western Balkans) was conducted, and the impact of parameters of global health expenditures on them was assessed. There are considerable differences in costs of treating adverse antiobesity drug reactions among European countries: costs of treating gastroesophageal reflux disease varied almost 20 times between North Macedonia (12.6 EUR) and Estonia (202.9 EUR). The Gross Domestic Product per capita was an important cost driver in treating the majority of the ADRs studied (p < .001), except for retinopathy, anaphylaxis, and respiratory disorders. The Domestic Private Health Expenditure increased the costs of treating depression (p = .012), upper respiratory tract infection (p = .008), melanocytic naevus (p = .027), and drug-induced hepatitis (p = .023). Investment in pharmaceuticals, medical goods, and preventive care tended to reduce the costs of treating several ADRs, which are seemingly unrelated to the body site or mechanism. Healthcare utilization and costs of treating ADRs to antiobesity drugs vary significantly among European countries. These differences should be considered when creating inputs for cost-effectiveness and budget impact models to decrease their uncertainty.

Cultural and Behavioral Insights into European Social Media Users: Platform Preferences and Personality Types

The study examines European social media personalities based on age, gender, platform preference, and country of origin. The research sample, which consists of respondents from 19 European countries (Albania, Bosnia &amp; Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Cyprus, France, Georgia, Germany, Greece, Italy, North Macedonia, Poland, Russia, Serbia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Turkey, and the UK) reflects the general population ratio and predominantly includes middle-aged individuals ensuring representative findings. Almost two-thirds of respondents engage with social media daily, highlighting its pervasive role in European life. Analysis of platform preferences reveals that Facebook and Instagram are the most popular, while TikTok and Snapchat are less favored, particularly among older demographics. The study shows that gender differences are significant, with females favoring Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, and Snapchat, while males prefer LinkedIn and Twitter. This delineation underscores the varying social media consumption habits between genders. The study identifies three primary social media personalities: Lurkers, who passively consume content; Ultras, who exhibit obsessive usage; and Deniers, who balance regular use without dependency. Additional personalities include Ranters, Informers, and Peacocks, each representing unique motivations and engagement styles. This diversity in user behaviors highlights the multifaceted nature of social media engagement in Europe. A country-specific analysis reveals cultural and regional differences in social media use, with distinct preferences and behaviors emerging across Europe. For instance, Germans exhibit unique tendencies with a notable presence among Approval Seekers, Changelings, and Ghosts. Such variations underscore the importance of considering cultural contexts in social media strategies. The findings offer valuable insights for stakeholders, including marketers, policymakers, and platform developers. By understanding these diverse usage patterns, more effective campaigns can be designed, privacy and digital literacy issues can be addressed, and user experiences can be enhanced. This study underscores the integral role of social media in European life and provides a foundation for future research and strategy development.

Employees’ Motivation in the North Macedonian Energy Sector

Objective: This paper investigates the factors that enhance employee motivation within North Macedonia's three largest energy companies (ESM, MEPSO, and EVN Macedonia) and examines how these factors vary in relevance according to employee age.Method: A qualitative approach was employed, involving the creation and distribution of a questionnaire to employees across these companies.Results: The findings indicate that both intrinsic and extrinsic factors contribute positively to employee motivation, though their influence varies among the companies. Additionally, the significance and perceived value of these motivational factors are shown to differ according to employees' age groups.Originality: This is the first study to evaluate employee motivation specifically within the Macedonian energy sector.

PREDICTIVE ROLE OF MATERNAL DEPRESSIVE SYMPTOMS AND PERCEIVED QUALITY OF LIFE ON POSTNATAL MOTHER-INFANT BONDING

This cross-sectional study was focused on the predictive role of maternal depressive symptoms and perceived quality of life on postnatal mother-infant bonding. Research show that impaired postnatal bonding has a negative long-term effect on child’s development. Relevant literature also acknowledges a scientific gap in the understanding of the relationship between maternal mental health and the quality of postnatal mother-infant bonding. Respondents were 162 women in the first 12 months after childbirth, advising with gynecologist in maternity hospitals in the Republic of North Macedonia. Edinburgh postnatal depression scale, subscales of psychological and environmental domain of the WHO Quality of Life Scale-brief, and Postpartum Bonding Questionnaire were applied to measure study variables. Results from hierarchical binary logistic regression showed that psychological domain of quality of life significantly predicted quality of postnatal bonding in the first and second block. However, its effect was suppressed in the third block when depressive symptoms variable was entered. The presence of depressive symptoms and environmental domain of the perceived quality of life significantly predicted postnatal mother-infant bonding. Findings confirmed the significant predictive relationship of maternal depressive symptoms and of environmental domain of mother’s perceived quality of life on the quality of postnatal boding. This gives reason for increased attention on development of mother–infant dyads during the postnatal period and on the importance of social support.

2.H. Round table: Health system description and comparison: lessons from the WHO/Observatory Insights series

Abstract The European Observatory on Health Systems and Policies has been working for more than 25 years on the systematic description, analysis and comparison of health systems in Europe. This workshop explores experiences so far with a new series of health system profiles, the Health Systems in Action (HSiA) Insights, launched in 2021 in collaboration with the WHO Regional Office for Europe. The first round of the Insights in 2021 was a pilot series, covering just five countries (Georgia, Kyrgyzstan, North Macedonia, Ukraine, and Uzbekistan). Since then, the series has grown to 13 countries in 2022 and in 2024 is covering almost all WHO Member States that are outside of the European Union (EU). The Insights aim to provide short and easily accessible documents that provide core information on a country’s health system, its key strengths and challenges, how it compares to other health systems in Europe, and how it impacts on the health of its population. This roundtable provides a platform for sharing experiences with devising, writing and using the series so far, bringing in country and comparative perspectives and involving the audience. The objectives of the roundtable are to a) identify best practices for the comparative description and analysis of health systems in the form of a series of country profiles; b) explore the challenges of drawing up country profiles where comparative data are lacking, incomplete or politicized; c) identify ways of disseminating and using country profiles; d) establish an opportunity for cross-country learning and skills development for the writing of health system descriptions and analyses. The roundtable will consist of four speakers. It will start with three very brief country presentations on the Insights for Israel, North Macedonia and Kazakhstan, followed by a brief comparative perspective on how to capture, compare and analyse health workforce trends across a broad set of countries, which is the Spotlight section of the 2024 round of Insights. This will be followed by a broad discussion with audience interventions to bring in the experience of other experts and countries. The moderated discussion will emphasise key learning points on how to devise a comparative series, how to write health system profiles and how best to use them to inform health policy-making. Key messages • The regular monitoring of health systems and policies is challenging, but essential for improving them. • Health system summaries require systematised approaches and up-to-date comparative data.

Disability-adjusted life years 19 former socialist economies in the European region, 1990-2019

Abstract Background Within the Western Balkan Strategic Partnership Project (Work Package 4: Use of Population Health Metrics for Enhanced Surveillance), we conducted a study to describe health progress in 19 former socialist economies (FSEs) in Europe from 1990 to 2019. Our metric of choice was age and sex-standardized rates per 100,000 population of total disability-adjusted life years (ASR-DALY). Methods We applied joinpoint regression with extracted ASR-DALY data from the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation result tool. The annual per cent change (APC) and average annual per cent change (AAPC) from 1990 to 2019 were analyzed in 19 former socialist economies (FSEs) in Europe, including Albania, Belarus, Bosnia and Herzegovina (BH), Bulgaria, Croatia, Czechia, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Montenegro, North Macedonia, Poland, Moldova, Romania, Russia, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, and Ukraine. Results The ASR-DALY decreased in Estonia (APC1994-1997= -5.2%, p = 0.034; APC2013-2019= -0.7%, p = 0.07), Latvia (APC1994-1997= -6.3%, p = 0.03; APC1997-2007= -1%, p = 0.001; APC2007-2011= -3.9%, p = 0.01), BH (APC1995-1998= -13.3%, p = 0.041; APC1998-2019= -0.5%, p = 0.004), Bulgaria (APC1997-2000= -2.5%, p = 0.022), Lithuania (APC2007-2010= -4.9%, p = 0.018), North Macedonia (APC2007-2011= -1.9%, p = 0.023, APC2011-2019= -0.5%, p = 0.005), Czechia (APC2014-2019= -0.6%, p = 0.014), Moldavia (APC1998-2007= -0.6%, p = 0.06), and Ukraine (APC1995-2008= -0.5%, p = 0.035). Slovenia performed the best amongst the FSEs (ASR-DALY2019: 16677.51 for women, 21985.95 for men and 19134.73 for both sexes), Ukraine the worst (ASR-DALY2019: 26154.88 for women, 47983.60 for men and 35852.17 for both sexes). Conclusions Except for Ukraine, all FSEs in the European region achieved health improvement. The most common was a three-year decline in ASR-DALY. Health policy changes, investments in health care, and harmonization with EU regulations were among the factors contributing to improved population health in the FSEs. Key messages • Bosnia and Herzegovina is the only FSE in Europe with a continuous 24-year decline in total ASR-DALY. • Reducing total ASR-DALY significantly in a three-year time frame is possible.

Restoring trust in vaccination through collective engagement with key populations in Eastern Europe

Abstract Issue/problem COVID-19 vaccination rates remained below 50% in Moldova, North Macedonia, and Serbia, especially among vulnerable populations like pregnant women and those with chronic diseases. This was strengthened by a lack of targeted communication and training for healthcare workers, and COVID-19 fatigue. Strategies to increase vaccine demand and confidence are a global priority, especially among vulnerable populations. Description of the solution From May 2022 to April 2024, the USAID MOMENTUM Routine Immunization Transformation and Equity project employed behavior integration to design a social and behavior change strategy, centering on vaccination as a part of a healthy lifestyle. It was implemented through continuing medical education (CME) and community engagement (CE) workshops with vulnerable populations, supplemented by cross-country learning exchanges. The outcomes provide a framework for public health initiatives aimed at boosting vaccine uptake through innovative, behavior-based methods. Results 1,618 healthcare professionals, able to reach 2.5 to 4.8 million patients, received training in immunization, COVID-19 vaccines, and quality health service, and 99% indicated confidence in applying the knowledge. 265 CE workshops, engaging 4,079 patients, increased awareness and addressed concerns related to vaccination. Of 3,223 patients who were followed up, 47% reported setting an appointment with their doctor regarding vaccination, 27% discussed vaccination with their partners, and 7% proceeded to receive the COVID-19 vaccine. Lessons Behavior Integration helped address key barriers to vaccination and informed the design of strategies (i.e. situating COVID-19 vaccination as part of a healthy lifestyle). Establishing trust with healthcare providers and patients through collective engagement improved health behaviors. Focusing on health as a wider priority helped re-establish the significance of vaccination as part of a healthy lifestyle. Key messages • Behavior science and behavior integration helped identify and address barriers, as well as design tailored interventions to improve vaccination demand and confidence. • Collective engagement, focused on integration of COVID-19 vaccination as part of a healthy lifestyle, achieved results through addressing vaccine hesitance from both sides of the equation.

A Certain Kind of Freedom

Άφρικα: A Certain Kind of Freedom is pivoting on artistic exploration and re-interpretation of a 'difficult' recent past. In part soundwalk, in part performance art, in part punk archaeology, in part getting lost in the dark; the work is a nocturnal rumination bringing together historical bewilderedness with first-person embodied experience of a place. The artist leads a night walk towards and inwards Agios Achillios island in Small Prespa Lake in Greece – near the borders of Albania, and North Macedonia – and back. En route, the walking audience is exposed to wildlife sounds and animal vocalisations, to orchestrated drama, and to historical records directly or indirectly concerning the broader geographical area and its significance during the Greek civil war.

Multi-hazard modeling of erosion and landslide susceptibility at the national scale in the example of North Macedonia

Abstract Due to favorable natural conditions and human impact, the territory of North Macedonia is very susceptible to natural hazards. Steep hillslopes combined with soft rocks (schists on the mountains; sands and sandstones in depressions), erodible soils, semiarid continental climate, and sparse vegetation cover give a high potential for soil erosion and landslides. For this reason, this study presents a multi-hazard approach to geohazard modeling on the national extent in the example of North Macedonia. Utilizing Geographic Information Systems, relevant data about the entire research area were employed to analyze and assess soil erosion and susceptibility to landslides and identify areas prone to both hazards. Using the Gavrilović Erosion Potential Method (EPM), an average value of 0.36 was obtained for the erosion coefficient Z, indicating low to moderate susceptibility to erosion. However, a significant area of the country (9.6%) is susceptible to high and excess erosion rates. For the landslide susceptibility assessment (LSA), the Analytical hierarchy process approach is combined with the statistical method (frequency ratio), showing that 29.3% of the territory belongs to the zone of high and very high landslide susceptibility. Then, the accuracy assessment is performed for both procedures (EPM and LSA), showing acceptable reliability. By overlapping both models, a multi-hazard map is prepared, indicating that 22.3% of North Macedonia territory is highly susceptible to erosion and landslides. The primary objective of multi-hazard modeling is to identify and delineate hazardous areas, thereby aiding in activities to reduce the hazards and mitigate future damage. This becomes particularly significant when considering the impact of climate change, which is associated with increased landslide and erosion susceptibility. The approach based on a national level presented in this work can provide valuable information for regional planning and decision-making processes.

The Princely Burials of the Central Balkans in Context

Despite a consensus that the Late Hallstatt ‘princely’ burials heralded the emergence of the earliest complex societies in the central Balkans, there is room for nuance. In this article, the ‘princely’ burial horizon is examined in light of the opposition between group-oriented and individualizing societies, while accepting that burials are as much an ideological statement as a reflection of social structure. On this theoretical basis, the author presents a study of two groups of ‘princely’ burials in North Macedonia and Bosnia in relation to contemporary and later burials, and with reference to settlement size in the Late Hallstatt and Classical–Hellenistic period. His analysis reveals that the inequality in burial assemblages of the Late Hallstatt ‘princely’ burial horizon decreases in the mortuary record of the fifth–fourth century bc, whereas the settlement size in the Classical–Early Hellenistic suggests emerging differentiation.

RUSSIA’S HYBRID WARFARE IN THE WESTERN BALKANS: GEOPOLITICAL STRATEGIES AND PROXY ACTORS

This paper examines Russia’s hybrid warfare tactics against the Western Balkans, focusing on using direct and indirect methods to exert influence in the region. The study delves into Russia’s strategic use of media manipulation, cyberattacks, and disinformation campaigns, alongside its employment of proxy state and non-state actors such as Serbia, Republika Srpska, and the Serbian Orthodox Church. Leveraging historical, cultural, and religious ties, Russia seeks to destabilize the Western Balkans and prevent closer integration with NATO and the European Union. Special attention is given to the geopolitics of elections, where Russia manipulates electoral processes in countries like Montenegro and North Macedonia to favour pro-Russian or anti-Western political forces. By analyzing key case studies, this paper explores how Russian hybrid warfare exploits regional vulnerabilities—such as ethnic divisions and weak political institutions—while employing tactics of soft power and military cooperation. The findings indicate that Russia’s hybrid warfare, including electoral manipulation, poses a significant threat to regional stability and international security, underscoring the need for strengthened Western engagement to counter Russian influence. This study offers critical insights into the evolving nature of hybrid warfare and its implications for the geopolitical landscape of Southeast Europe.

Factors influencing farmers' willingness to provide private land for a coordinated flood mitigation scheme in the Drin basin

AbstractFlooding poses a significant and recurring threat in numerous regions. The adverse impacts of flooding can be mitigated through risk sharing, such as insurance or risk reduction. However, insurance might not be accessible in underdeveloped markets or in instances where floods are too frequent. Similarly, the necessary funding or land for structural measures might not be available. Alternatively, measures could be implemented on private land, either through individual initiatives or as part of a coordinated effort. This approach was explored in the flood‐prone regions of Albania and North Macedonia. A survey conducted among 124 farmers revealed that 73% of them are willing to allocate land for flood mitigation, provided they receive adequate compensation. Furthermore, certain factors increase farmers' willingness to cooperate. A logit model indicated a positive correlation between expectations of future floods (increased severity and frequency), receipt of ex‐ante financial support, positive perception of the effectiveness of agricultural flood mitigation measures, and age. Those who view flood protection as personal responsibility and those more inclined to pay for flood insurance are less likely to cooperate. The findings could be utilized to identify farmers who are likely to contribute to establishing a coordinated effort on a stable basis.

7th ERL Conference Links between Beliefs and Language held at the heart of Europe, in Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina – a report

On 27-28 June 2024, the Association for the Educational Role of Language organized the 7th International Pedagogic and Linguistic Conference entitled Links between Beliefs and Language.

The two-day conference was preceded by a pre-conference meeting, during which...

Mitochondrial data unravels the human-mediated introduction of Mediodactylus kotschyi (Squamata: Gekkonidae) to the Central Balkan Peninsula

Abstract Kotschy’s gecko, Mediodactylus kotschyi, is native to the Eastern part of the Mediterranean Basin and a successful colonizer, with an extensive distribution across the Balkans and outside its native range. In Serbia, it was presumed native in Prizren (Kosovo and Metohija province) and introduced across the remaining territory. To explore the origin of Serbian Kotschy’s gecko, we collected specimens from most of the Serbian populations where the species was recorded and assessed their phylogenetic relationships based on three mtDNA markers (COI, cytb, 16S rRNA) under Maximum Likelihood (ML) and Bayesian Inference (BI) approaches. First, our results support that the specimens found in Serbia belong to M. kotschyi. Second, all populations except Prizren belong to the subspecies M. kotschyi skopjensis. Furthermore, the Italian populations are sister to the specimens from Prizren, suggesting a Balkan origin for these populations, which settled in Apulia likely through ancient human-mediated dispersion. The small genetic differentiation found suggests that Kotschy’s gecko rapidly colonized the Central Balkans, originating from Northern Greece and North Macedonia. The results also suggest a story of multiple, complex (most likely) human-mediated introductions. However, further studies should be conducted to properly elucidate the colonization pathways, and to truly disentangle the potential fast natural range expansion from an anthropogenic dispersion of this gecko species.
