Analysis and Promotion of Policy Debate on the European Future of Turkey and Ukraine in Four Central European States (2006.04.04)
The Peace Institute is currently involved in the implementation of a project ‘Analysis and Promotion of Policy Debate on the European Future of Turkey and Ukraine in Four Central European States’ within a consortium of policy institutes from the following states: Czech Republic (EUROPEUM Institute for European Policy), Hungary (Center for Policy Studies) and Poland (Institute of Public Affairs). The main goal of the project is investigation of the prevailing social attitudes to the question of further enlargement including Turkey and Ukraine and presentation of factors influencing state and character of the debate concerning the enlargement. The project is a joint initiative of four policy centres of the Policy Association for an Open Society (PASOS) and runs from 1 April 2005 until 1 April 2006. -
Disappointing Trends in Slovenian Television (2006.03.01)
Despite far-reaching reform of its broadcast sector since 1991, Slovenia – Europe’s most prosperous new democracy – recently adopted regressive broadcasting legislation. Yet an important analytic report on television in Slovenia, presented today in Ljubljana, finds that this worrying development is consistent with a visible trend of high-level reluctance to abandon political influence over the management, editors and journalists of the public service broadcaster, RTV Slovenia. As well as showing that political parties and governments have tried to exert such influence, the report also finds that ownership transparency is lacking in the commercial broadcast sector. -
Two new books published in the Politike Symposion Edition (2005.09.01)
Two books, which present proceedings from two international seminars organized by the Peace Institute in 2004, have recently been published in English language in the Politike Symposion Edition: The Heart of the Matter: The Contribution of the Ethic of Care to Social Policy in Some New EU Member States (edited by Selma Sevenhuijsen and Alenka Švab) and Women and Trafficking (edited by Simona Zavratnik Zimic). -
New Book: Media Ownership: Impact on Media Independence and Pluralism in Slovenia and Other Post-socialist European Countries (2005.09.01)
The issues of media ownership concentration and the formulation and implementation of an effective media legislation received considerable attention in recent years. Within the Media Watch program, we drew attention to the threat these issues pose to media pluralism in 2002 based on the analysis made by Sandra B. Hrvatin and Lenart Kueie. One year later, in 2003, a regional research and advocacy project was proposed and approved. It was carried out from July 2003 to June 2004 by the Peace Institute within the South East European Network for the Professionalisation of the Media (SEENPM). Its goal was to bring together the post-socialist European countries and initiate a debate about media concentration and potential changes in public policies. -

New book: Cultural Revisionism. Culture between Neo-liberalism and Social Responsibility (2004.06.01)
The study Cultural Revisionism by Maja Breznik is a critical review of European cultural policies. These have earned the epithet "revisionist" because of their revival of the old paradigm of exalted culture intended for social elites. The author analyzes the national reports on cultural policies in France, Sweden, The Netherlands, Finland, Austria, Italy and Slovenia. The focus of her attention are social distribution of cultural goods and paradigms of "democratization", "decentralization" and "liberalization". Cultural Revisionism looks into the recent changes that drew European cultural policies away from the social-democratic ideological framework and towards the neo-liberal model.
