LOS CAMINOS INCIERTOS DEL VÍNCULO
Este texto quiere proponer algunos caminos para responder a una demanda, la de repensar la noción de vínculo social. La demanda resulta tanto de un debate, muy generalizado en el campo de las ciencias sociales y especialmente las dedicadas al estudio del parentesco, que se interroga por la vigencia de las herramientas teóricas heredadas para pensar el vínculo, sobre todo cuando nos enfrentamos a situaciones empíricas propias de lo que llamamos “desaparición social”, esto es, la producción sistemática de vidas fracturadas, de existencias en las que se quiebra lo que daba consistencia y sentido a la vida, incluyendo los vínculos. Alejándonos de argumentos de tono apocalíptico, que vaticinan el colapso sin remedio de la vida tal y como la conocíamos, y también de otros más ingenuos, confiados en su recuperación, apostamos por entender el vínculo en las situaciones en las que este parece negado o insostenible pensándolo en el terreno de un hacer que se articula sobre tres verbos: emparentar, buscar, sustanciar. Cerramos el texto apostando porque ese movimiento ha de ir acompañado de un replanteamiento de nuestros modos de hacer ciencias sociales.

Domestic and international politics of Portugal’s declining naval power, 1820-1910
Abstract This article aims to estimate Portugal’s naval power and explain its variation between 1820 and 1910. Our measure of naval power is the total annual tonnage of combat ships. In addition, we compare Portugal’s naval power to that of Great Britain, which had the largest navy of that period. Although there were a few episodes of increase in Portuguese naval power, the central trend is one of sharp decline. The factors explaining this trend are, at the domestic level, economic fluctuations, internal conflicts and the political role of the Army. At the international level, the independence of Brazil and Lisbon’s position vis-à-vis the European powers stand out. We also seek to weigh the influence of these factors on the main episodes of change in the tonnage of Portugal’s combat ships. We conclude that domestic political factors played a leading role in determining the country’s naval power.

Univerzitetska nastava u „tvrdim“ i „mekim“ naukama: akademska plemena ili ka zajedničkoj kulturi?
This paper critically analyzes the distinction between the so-called“hard” and “soft” sciences, with a particular emphasis on the teaching quality inthese academic fields. Firstly, it presents the origin and characteristics of this populardichotomy, as well the idea of a hierarchy of sciences in philosophy and sociology.It then points out the relative inadequacy of this hierarchy, but also its heuristicvalue, based on relevant and contemporary research on scientific knowledge anduniversity teaching. In this regard, it thoroughly analyzes the concepts of academictribes, territories, and epistemic cultures at the university environments. We arguethat the anthropological concept of culture can offer valuable insights into the innerworkings of physical, life, and social sciences, and claim that different academiccultures significantly influence the character of university teaching. Finally, thispaper emphasizes the possibility of building a common academic culture in termsof teaching quality, i.e. a shared quality culture.

Zigmunt Bauman: Sociologija Mnogostrukosti Pristupa
In this paper, the author explores the sociology of Zygmunt Bauman, which is viewed as the multiplicity of approaches, that is, as a sociological thought composed of various sources and influences. Although eclectic and hybrid, Bauman’s sociology has not lost its authenticity. The paper represents a modest attempt to create an approximate whole of a critical and engaged public sociology from the multitude of diverse topics that Bauman addressed. These characteristics are the most lasting and powerful features of Bauman’s entire sociology, regardless of its extensive thematic content, theoretical heterogeneity, and methodological inconsistencies. Without intending to be original or strict sociological discourse, Bauman’s sociology of postmodernity has shown how sociological classics can be used in the interpretation of the fluid modern society. The author emphasizes that, in Bauman’s work, there is a strong demand to overcome classical sociology with all its historically accumulated problems and theoretical-methodological infrastructural divisions and limitations; to maintain a connection with its foundations while also finding space within them for new interpretative schemes, for a new hermeneutics, and for the language of new metaphors. This metaphorical language of Bauman’s, which will also face criticism, represents a research effort and a conscious risk to delve into the real social life of concrete people and their practices.

Krajnja desnica u srpskoj političkoj misli Dragoš Kalajić kao uzor i simbol savremene srpske krajnje desnice
The paper theoretically defines far right, extreme right and radical right. Afterwards, it embedds thought and practice of Dragoš Kalajić in the context of various ideological streamings within the European far right 1971-2024. This half-century period can be roughly divided into three subperiods: 1) from the first Kalajić’s books till multi-party system formation 1971-1989; 2) from multy party-system formation till Kalajić’s death 1989-2005; 3) after Kalajić’s death. The first one was determined by Kalajić’s adoption of Giulio Evola’s and the New Right ideas. The second one was related to Wars of Yugoslav succession, formation of the ”Serbian New Right“, consisted of Kalajić’s closest extreme right followers, extreme right Serbian National Renewal and its paramilitary unit White Eagles, and Kalajić’s orientation towards Russia and Alexander Dugin’s ideas. The third one was marked by posthumous ideological Kalajić’s influence on Serbian academic authors of radical right orientation. Ideology-critical approach reveals reasons behind the fact that an Evola’s epigon was enabled to publish three books at reputable publishers in former Yugoslavia, and has been highly respected among extreme rightists since the end of socialist Yugoslavia. By the same token, the paper explains why Dragoš Kalajić has recently become a role model and symbol for the mainstream intellectuals who converted to radical right ideas.
