so we set out to study the coverage of Palestinian and Israeli victims by German press systematically!

The resulting study 'Hierarchies in Death' was just published #OA by Peacebuilding www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....

Oba društva su danas puno konzervativnija nego prije trideset godina. Često su mlade generacije koje su odrasle u posljednja dva desetljeća znatno kon...

Siniša Malešević: Jugoslavija se koristi kao strašilo za djecu – Portal Novosti Apsurdno je da se u Hrvatskoj izvikuje ustaški pozdrav. Da nije bilo partizana ova država sigurno ne bi postojala, ali u posljednjih trideset godina sve se radi
