The essays in this thematic issue explore an important but often overlooked legacy of European multilingualism and the various power asymmetries and ideological values that characterize it, namely the multilingual practices of ethno-linguistic groups on Europe’s south-eastern periphery. Although the European Union has in the past twenty years adopted legislation that explicitly celebrates and supports multilingualism, linguistic diversity and minority language rights, its language policy has received criticism for tending to rely on and embolden national standardizing language regimes (Gal 2006; Leech 2017; Mandić and Belić 2018). Indeed, the European focus on the protection of language diversity and language rights appears to reaffirm a static model of language in that it relies upon “the idea of a European polity based on the cooperation of distinct nation states” and upon related codified languages which can be traced back to ideologies of Romantic authenticity and Enlightenment universality (Leech 2017: 34–35; Gal 2011). Scholars of the EU’s language and multilingualism policy found that the official discourses oscillate between highlighting traditional cultural values like diversity and the right to education in the speakers’ first language on the one hand, and promoting economic values and ideologies on the other hand (Krzyżanowski and Wodak 2011; Romaine 2013). Есеји у овом тематском броју истражују важно, али често занемарено наслеђе европске вишејезичности, као и асиметрије моћи и идеолошке вредности које га одликују, односно вишејезичне праксе етнолингвистичких група на југоисточној периферији Европе. Иако је Европска унија у протеклих двадесет година усвојила законодавство које експлицитно слави и подржава вишејезичност, језичку разноликост и језичка права мањина, њена језичка политика је критикована због склоности да се ослања на националне језичке режиме стандардизације (Gal 2006; Leech 2017; Mandić and Belić 2018). Заиста, чини се да европска усредсређеност на заштиту језичке разноликости и језичких права заправо реафирмише статични модел језика, јер се ослања на „европску политику засновану на сарадњи различитих националних држава“ и на, с њима повезане, кодификоване националне језике, а такве идеје потичу од идеологија романтичарске аутентичности и просветитељске универзалности (Leech 2017: 34–35; Gal 2011). Проучаваоци језичке и вишејезичне политике Европске уније показали су да званични дискурси осцилирају између истицања радиционалних културних вредности попут различитости и права на образовање на првом („матерњем“) језику говорника, с једне стране, и промовисања економских вредности и идеологија, с друге стране (Krzyżanowski and Wodak 2011; Romaine 2013).

А global desire to achieve prosperity and economic growth has been especially heightened in recent decades, which has led to an increase in the use of natural resources and an increase in GHG emissions, especially carbon dioxide. Consequently, a decrease in energy security, growth and price volatility of natural resources and climate change has occurred. The academy, policymakers, industry and civil society representatives accept that economic well-being and human well-being must be an objective that is achieved without escalating the use of natural resources and negative environmental impacts. Although developed countries are well on their way to achieving these goals, great uncertainty lies with developing countries, as they do not have all the mechanisms and instruments that are needed. Research on the interdependence of environmental quality and economic growth is significant because it provides policymakers with a better understanding of environmental and economic interactions. All of the above provides context and additional information for policymakers to facilitate the selection, creation, and adoption of appropriate policies, pointing to economic and environmental relationships that are often not obvious or intuitive. With a comprehensive theoretical overview of the theories and factors of economic growth and development, as well as an analysis of the integration and interdependence of the economy and the environment, one of the most significant contributions of this doctoral dissertation is a detailed description of the methodology and results of the econometric analysis of the panel causality of the nine Southeast European countries from 1995 to 2015. Panel unit root testing and Johansen-Fisher and Pedroni cointegration tests preceded Granger's causality analysis based on the vector error correction model and the Wald test. The results of the research unequivocally point to the existence of a two-way long-run causal link between real gross domestic product, carbon dioxide emissions, energy use, electricity consumption, and gross fixed capital formation. The results of short-term causality analysis are that gross domestic product and gross fixed capital formation in the short run cause changes in all other variables. On the other hand, carbon dioxide emissions, electricity consumption, and energy use do not cause changes in other variables in the short term. Based on all the results, it can be concluded that economic variables in the short run affect all environmental pollution variables, while environmental variables in the short run do not cause changes in the economic variables of the model.

Tranzicija je prouzročila značajno pogoršanje zdravstvenog i obrazovnog sustava u bivšim komunističkim zemljama. Mada je zdravstveni sustav ostao u javnom sektoru i službeno besplatan, rastuća proporcija siromašnih ne može priuštiti sve vrste medicinskih usluga. Obrazovanje je negativno pogodjeno i na strani ponude i na strani potražnje. U nekoliko zemalja bivše Jugoslavije, uglavnom Srbiji, Hrvatskoj i Bosni i Hercegovini, rat i njegove posljedice prisilile su tisuće nastavnika i sveučilišnih predavača i profesora da napuste zemlju. U drugim zemljama, kao što su Rumunjska i Bugarska, niska primanja i gubitak profesionalnog statusa i dostojanstva, potakao je neke prosvjetne radnike da napuste obrazovanje. Na strani potražnje, negativan utjecaj bio je trostruk; pad u prisustvu učenika nastavi, neredovito prisustvo nastavi i nedostatak motivacije. Ekonomska tranzicija dovela je do povećanja nejednakosti u svim istočnoeuropskim zemljama. Dvostruki proces tranzicije od komandne ka tržišnoj privredi i masovna privatizacija državnih poduzeća igrao je glavnu ulogu u širenju jaza u raspodjeli dohotka. Pojavu uskog sloja novih bogataša pratilo je drastično povećanje postotka onih koji žive u apsolutnom siromaštvu.

Iako su invazivni predstavnici roda Reynoutria proučavani od strane više autora, prevashodno na nivou pojedinačnih država, pojedinačnih staništa ili zaštićenih područja, nema naučnih radova u kojima se celovito analizira njihova ekologija, ukupno rasprostranjenje, kao i predviđanje buduće distribucije na području Srbije i jugoistočne Evrope. Takođe, evidentna je nedovoljna istraženost mehanizama adaptacije i strategije preživljavanja ovih taksona u antropogeno zagađenim staništima. Zbog svega, osnovni ciljevi ove disertacije su utvrđivanje prisustva i distribucije invazivnih taksona roda Reynoutria na području Srbije i jugoistočne Evrope, ekološka analiza u odnosu na klimatske parametre i tip staništa, procena invazibilnosti zaštićenih područja Srbije i jugoistočne Evrope, kao i analiza bioakumulacionih potencijala za makronutrijente i teške metale taksona R. x bohemica. Istraživanja su obavljena u periodu 2006. – 2016. godina. Zabeleženo je ukupno 4081 lokaliteta, u okviru tri različita tipa staništa. Najčešći taksoni su R. japonica i hibrid R. × bohemica. Primenom metode MaxEnt modelovanja utvrđeno je da padavine najtoplijeg kvartala (BIO18) imaju najveći uticaj na formiranje ekološke niše ovih taksona. Modelovana niša taksona R. × bohemica ukazuje na njegovu toleranciju visokih temperatura u različitim periodima godine, uz istovremeno niže količine padavina (i do 60 mm u odnosu na roditeljske vrste). Hemijskom analizom biljnih tkiva R.× bohemica, utvrđena je slaba akumulacija teških metala sa strategijom njihovog isključivanja, uz veoma efikasnu akumulaciju makronutrijenata. Rezultati upućuju na potrebu sprečavanja osnivanja novih populacija u blizini zaštićenih područja koja imaju pogodne sredinske faktore za razvoj ovih taksona. Although the invasive Reynoutria taxa have been studied by several authors, primarily at country, habitat or protected areas level, there are no scientific papers in which their ecology, distribution and future distribution predictions in Serbia and Southeastern Europe are completely analyzed. Also, there is lack of scientific research of adaptation mechanisms and survival strategies of these taxa in anthropogenically polluted soils. Hence, the main objectives of this dissertation are determination the presence and distribution of invasive Reynoutria taxa in Serbia and southeastern Europe, ecological study of bioclimatic parameters in different habitats and protected areas invasibility assessment in Serbia and Southeastern Europe, as well as R. × bohemica‘s bioaccumulation potential of macronutrients and heavy metals. Research was carried out in the period 2006-2016. A total of 4081 localities were recorded in seven SE Europe countries, in three types of habitats. The most frequent taxa are R. japonica and hybrid R. × bohemica. The precipitation of the warmest quarter (BIO18) had a highest influence on the potential distribution modelling of these taxons according to the MaxEnt. Potential distribution modelling revealed R. × bohemica's high temperature tolerance in different seasons with high durability of drought (up to 60 mm per year less precipitation than parental species). Weak heavy metal accumulation accompanied by exclusion, with very efficient macronutrients accumulation, seems to be the survival and expansion strategy of Reynoutria × bohemica according to the chemical analysis results. The results indicate the need to prevent the establishment of new populations near protected areas with suitable bioclimatic parameters for their development.

Ovaj rad istraţuje promene tradicionalnih medija do kojih dolazi u novom, digitalnom okruţenju. U radu se polazi od pretpostavke da je prikazivanje svih sadrţaja u istom digitalnom kodu omogućilo konvergenciju koja je uticala na ove promene, kao i da su osobine imanentne kompjuterskoj mreţi donele novi kvalitet onlajn izdanjima tradicionalnih medija. Ispituje se hipoteza koja glasi da su ove tehnološke promene uticale na promenu karakteristika i uloge tradicionalnih medija i to tako da je brzina ovih promena zavisila od brzine i intenziteta tehnoloških promena u digitalnom svetu kao i od stepena razvijenosti tehniĉko-tehnološke infrastrukture. Promene su korenite i one zahvataju ĉitavo društvo. Informaciona revolucija i umreţeno društvo koncepti su koje je razvio Manuel Kastels (Manuel Castells, 2000, 2004, 2010a) i koji predstavljaju teorijski okvir ovog istraţivanja u ispitivanju odnosa društva i tehnologije. Cilj doktorskog rada je da ispita oblike i posledice transformacije tradicionalnih medija i da objasni zašto se promene odvijaju razliĉitom brzinom na globalnom planu, zatim unutar kruga razvijenih zemalja i posebno u grupi koju ĉine zemlje Jugoistoĉne Evrope koje su u procesu pridruţivanja Evropskoj uniji (Srbija, Bosna i Hercegovina, Makedonija i Albanija). U kontekstu opštih promena dodatna paţnja posvećena je studiji sluĉaja transformacije tradicionalnih medija u Srbiji... This work explores the changes in traditional media which occur in the new digital environment. The work assumes that the viewing of all contents in the same digital code enables convergence that caused these changes, and that the inherent characteristics of computer network have brought a new quality of online editions of traditional media. The hypothesis, which states that these technological changes affected the change of the characteristics and the role of traditional media in such a way that the speed of these changes depended on the speed and intensity of technological changes in the digital world as well as the development level of technical and technological infrastructure, is being examined. The changes are profound, and they affect the whole society. Information revolution and the network society concepts are developed by Manuel Castells (2000, 2004, 2010a), which represent the theoretical framework of this research in examining the relationship between society and technology. The aim of the doctoral dissertation is to examine the forms and consequences of the transformation of traditional media and to explain why the changes occur at different rates on a global scale, then inside the circle of developed countries, and especially in the group consisting of SEE countries that are in the process of joining the European Union (Serbia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Macedonia and Albania). In the context of the general changes additional attention was paid to the case study of the transformation of traditional media in Serbia...

This paper deals with the significant European aims of the process of intra-continental integration, as well as the role of the urban centers in its transregional cooperation. Although the process of transborder cooperation of towns exists also in other parts of the world, the roots of that complex form of cooperation appeared rather early in Western Europe. The area of Central Europe, especially the politically unstable southeastern part of the continent, are considerably late in this process. Serbia, especially its western and southern parts, is even more late in transborder regional cooperation of towns. The paper emphasizes that towns of Serbia, as development carriers with their intellectual potentials, have to express the ideas on starting the international actions. The possibilities are extensive: activation of neglected cooperation relations, improvement of technological and economical development, modernization of infrastructural systems, cooperation in culture, education, sports and recreation, environmental protection, etc. Towns need to find the ways for all kinds of cooperation with surrounding towns, if such cooperation gives the results which are favourable for both parties. Isolation from the world courses would lead to long-term stagnation. Rad obuhvata značajne evropske ciljeve procesa unutarkontinentalne integracije, kao i ulogu gradskih centara u transregionalnoj saradnji. Iako se proces transgranične saradnje gradova nalazi i u drugim delovima sveta, koreni tog složenog oblika saradnje na području Zapadne Evrope javljaju se veoma rano. Područje Centralne Evrope, a naročito politički nestabilni jugoistočni deo kontinenta, znatno kasne u ovom procesu, pa evropske integracije gradova su rezultat inicijativa EU koje izrazitije podržavaju njihovo formiranje. Srbija, posebno u svojim zapadnim i južnim delovima, još više kasni kad je u pitanju uključivanje u transgranični oblik regionalne saradnje gradova. Rad ističe da gradovi Srbije, kao nosioci razvoja sa svojim intelektualnim potencijalima, moraju da izraze ideje u vezi sa pokretanjem međunarodnih tokova. Te mogućnosti obuhvataju aktiviranje zapostavljenih i formiranje novih veza saradnje, unapređivanje tehnološkog i ekonomskog razvoja, modernizaciju infrastrukturnih sistema, saradnju na polju kulture, obrazovanja, sporta i rekreacije, zaštite životne sredine i dr. Gradovi treba da iznađu puteve za saradnju svake vrste sa gradovima u okruženju, ako takva saradnja daje obostrane pozitivne rezultate. U suprotnom, izolovanost od svetskih tokova će značiti stagnaciju na duže vreme.

An internally displaced people are people who are forced to flee but who remain in their own countries. World leading organizations on climate change indicate particularly the risks of flooding in South East Europe by the end of the XXI century. It is estimated that 90% of South East Europe is located within transboundary river basins and is poorly regulated, which makes the region highly prone to floods. The last decades have emphasized the vulnerability to the floods as well as an inadequate protection measures and disaster management, especially for Serbia and Bosnia and Herzegovina. Interno raseljena lica su prinuđena da napuste mesto prebivalištva, ali ostaju unutar granica svoje zemlje. Predviđanja vodećih organizacija u svetu o klimatskim promenama ukazuju na potencijalne rizike, naročito od poplava, na teritoriji Jugoistočne Evrope do kraja XXI veka. Procenjuje se da 90% teritorije Jugoistočne Evrope spada u okvir prekograničnih i loše regulisanih rečnih slivova, što region čini vrlo sklonim poplavama. Poslednje decenije dokazuju ranjivost po pitanju poplava, kao i neadekvatnih mera zaštite i menadžmenta nesreća, naročito u Srbiji i Bosni i Hercegovini.

New world order and rearrangement of Europe transform the position of Balkan region -instead as the "crossroad" between East and West, it is more often included into the area of Western influence. In European relations developed "core" is gradually spreading toward "periphery" removing the traditional Balkan culture. The europeisation of Balkans and spreading of Western European civilization's circle gives the arguments that the term Balkans should be replaced with the term Southeastern Europe. The europeisation or balkanization is not geopolitical but civilization choice in front of all Balkan nations. Novi svetski poredak i preuređenje Evrope, transformišu položaj balkanskog regiona - umesto "raskršća" između Istoka i Zapada, on sve više ulazi u perimetar ili polje uticaja Zapada. U evropskim relacijama razvijeni "centar" postepeno se širi ka "periferiji", i potiskuje tradicionalnu balkansku kulturu. Evropeizacija Balkana i širenje perimetra uticaja zapadnoevropskog civilizacijskog kruga sve više daje osnova da se termin Balkan zameni terminom Jugoistočna Evropa. Evropeizacija ili balkanizacija to nije više geopolitički, već civilizacijski izbor, pred koji su stavljeni svi balkanski narodi.

Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA) represents a significant tool for environmental evaluation of plans and programs. Inclusion of mandatory SEA in national legislative represents at the same time important prerequisite for synchronization with European legislative. In the moment, when SEA application in South East European (SEE) countries is still at the very beginning, this paper will try to show the comparative analysis of SEA systems in these countries from legal, institutional and procedural point of view. The main aim is to discover potential obstacles and barriers in implementation, together with exchange of experiences for future adjustments or development of existing systems. Strateška procena uticaja na životnu sredinu (SPU) predstavlja značajan instrument za ocenu podobnosti planova i programa sa aspekta uticaja na životnu sredinu. Uključivanje obaveze donošenja SPU u nacionalno zakonodavstvo istovremeno predstavlja bitan preduslov sinhronizacije sa legislativom Evropske unije. U trenutku kada je primena SPU u zemljama Jugoistočne Evrope još uvek u začetku, rad će pokušati da pruži komparativni prikaz sistema SPU u ovim zemljama sa zakonskog, institucionalnog i proceduralnog aspekta. Osnovni cilj je otkrivanje potencijalnih smetnji i poteškoća u implementaciji, uz razmenu iskustava radi boljeg prilagođavanja ili usavršavanja postojećih sistema.

Tokom srednjeg veka u Ugarskoj su se našli i mnogi pripadnici dinastija iz susednih, ali i iz drugih evropskih zemalja. Predmet istraživanja u ovoj tezi su clanovi dinastija iz zemalja jugoistocne Evrope, odnosno sa Balkanskog poluostrva (Srbija, Bosna, Vizantija, Bugarska, Osmansko carstvo), koji su u periodu od 12. do prvih decenija 16. veka boravili u Ugarskoj kraljevini i bili ukljuceni u njen državno-pravni sistem. U fokusu istraživanja su srpski župan i ugarski palatin Beloš iz 12. veka, njemu savremeni bosanski ban Boric i njegovi potomci, sinovi bivše vizantijske carice Margarite Jovan An'eo i Viljem od Sentomera, bosanski banovi iz 13. veka, narocito Prijezda I i njegovi sinovi, srpski kralj Stefan Dragutin, bosanski ban Stjepan (( Kotromanic i njegova kci Jelisaveta, supruga ugarskog kralja Lajoša (, zatim sinovi kralja Vukašina Dmitar i Andrijaš, despoti Stefan Lazarevic, &ura' Brankovic i njegovi potomci, srpski despoti u Ugarskoj iz druge polovine 15. stoleca, bosanski kraljevi pocev od Tvrtka I do Stefana Tomaševica, herceg Vladislav Kosaca i njegovi naslednici, i konacno, bugarski carevic Fružin i osmanski princevi Murat i Davud Celebija. Njihov položaj u srednjovekovnoj Ugarskoj razlikovao se u zavisnosti od vremena i okolnosti u kojima su došli u ovu zemlju (bracne i porodicne veze me'u dinastijama, izbegli clanovi vladarskih porodica koji su našli utocište u Ugarskoj, vladari susednih država koji su kao vazali ugarskih kraljeva dobijali posede na teritoriji kraljevine). Cilj istraživanja bio je da se na osnovu raspoloživih podataka u istorijskim izvorima sagleda položaj clanova dinastija iz zemalja jugoistocne Evrope u pravnom i politickom sistemu Ugarske kraljevine, njihovi posedi, uloge koje su ove licnosti imale u odnosima Ugarske sa zemljama iz kojih su poticale, i, na kraju, da se na taj nacin bolje osvetli politika ugarskih vladara prema njihovim jugoistocnim susedima u srednjem veku. During the Middle Ages many members of the dynasties from neighboring countries came to Hungary, as well as from other European countries. In this Ph.D. thesis members of the dynasties from South Eastern Europe are studied, that is from the Balkan countries (Serbia, Bosnia, Byzantium, Bulgaria, Ottoman Empire), those who stayed in the Kingdom of Hungary during the period from 12th to the early decades of the 16th century and were involved in its state and legal system. The study focuses on the Serbian župan and Hungarian Palatine Beloš from the 12th century, his contemporary Bosnian ban Boric and his descendants, the sons of former Byzantine Empress Margaret John Angel and William of Saint Omer, Bosnian bans from the 13th century, especially Prijezda I and his sons, Serbian king Stefan Dragutin, Bosnian ban Stjepan II Kotromanic and his daughter Elizabeth, the wife of Hungarian King Lajos I, then the sons of King Vukašin Dimitar and Andrijaš (14th century), Despots Stefan Lazarevic, George Brankovic and his descendants, who became Serbian despots in Hungary in the second half of the 15th century, then Bosnian kings from Tvrtko I to Stefan Tomaševic, Duke Vladislav Kosaca and his successors, and finally, Bulgarian prince Fružin and Ottoman princes Murat and Dawud Celebi. Their position in medieval Hungary differed depending on the time and circumstances in which they came to this country (marriage and family ties between dynasties, exiled members of royal families who have found refuge in Hungary, the rulers of neighboring countries, who had received estates in the Kingdom as vassals of the Hungarian kings). The aim of the study is to perceive, based on the data available in historical sources, the position of members of the dynasties from the South-East Europe in the legal and political system of the Kingdom of Hungary, their possessions, the roles that these persons have played in Hungarian relations with the countries from which they were originated, and, finally, to better highlight policies of Hungarian rulers to their southeastern neighbors in the Middle Ages.

This paper investigates the long-term changes in the hydrological time series. For this purpose, we use the trend analysis. The trend analysis is performed by using the standard Mann-Kendall trend test and by using the multi-temporal approach. The analysis is applied to the standardized and averaged time series of seasonal and annual flow of the river Sava at the stations Zagreb and Sremska Mitrovica for period from 1926 to 2005. It is concluded that the trend of seasonal and annual flow series of the Sava River are downward. The trends of annual flows in the region (Danube, Velika Morava, Lim) confirm this general pattern according to which the trends of annual flows in south-eastern Europe are downward. The multi-temporal analysis shows that the trend direction and intensity in the sub-series change with the long-term periodicity. The changes in trend direction and intensity depend on the length of the sub-series and the position of the sub-series within the whole time series. U ovom radu analizirane su dugoročne promene u vremenskim serijama oticaja. Razmatrano je prisustvo trenda i višegodišnjih vodnih i sušnih ciklusa. Analiza trenda vršena je standardnim Mann-Kendall testom, a pored toga trend je analiziran korišćenjem tzv. multi-vremenskog pristupa u kojoj se trendovi računaju za podserije različitih početaka i dužina. Analiza je sprovedena na standardizovanim i osrednjenim serijama sezonskih i godišnjih proticaja na reci Savi na stanicama Zagreb i Sremska Mitrovica za period 1926-2005. Kada se posmatra ceo period, zaključuje se da je trend sezonskih i godišnjih proticaja na reci Savi opadajući. Trendovi godišnjih proticaja u širem području (Dunav, Velika Morava, Lim) su u skladu sa ovim rezultatima, dok reka Tisa poseduje rastuće trendove godišnjih proticaja. Multivremenskom analizom pokazano je da se trend razlikuje za različite podserije. Na smer i nagib trenda vremenskih serija utiče dužina serije kao i položaj podserije unutar cele serije. Promena smera i nagiba trenda ima ciklični karakter što odgovara smenama višegodišnjih vodnih i sušnih perioda.

Zemlje Jugoistične Evrope (JIE) uvodile su post-socijalističke reforme prema tzv. ,,šok terapiji’’, što je imalo za posledicu privremeni, kraći ili duži, pad BDP-a, životnog standarda i industrijske proizvodnje. Naročito je pad industrije bio ,,Ahilova peta’’ privreda ovih zemalja. Dokument Strategija Jugoistočne Evrope 2010 (SEE 2020 Strategy), koja je usvojena nedavno, treba da označi prekid ovog trenda, i pomak od modela rasta koji se zasniva na uvozu i potrošnji, ka modelu razvoja koji se zasniva na većem učešću stranih direktnih investicija (SDI), bržem tehnološkom razvoju, većoj konkurentosti i zaokruživanju socioekonomskih reformi. Međutim, nema pouzdanih empirijskih dokaza da će rast koji je zasnovan na SDI biti efikasniji sa stanovišta regionalnog razvoja od rasta koji je zasnovan na regionalnoj štednji, većem udelu doznaka iz inostranstva i resursima domaćih investitora. Treba uočiti da je poslednjih godina suma domaćih izvora znatno premašila ukupnu sumu SDI. Kako sadašnja situacija tako i budući izgledi nalažu da region JIE treba da razvije zajednički pristup razvoju, praćen propisima i institucionalnim aranžmanima na regionalnom nivou. Countries of the SEE introduced market and other post-socialist transition reforms by applying the so-called ‘’shock therapy’’, with subsequent transitory drop in GDP, standard of living and industrial production. Particularly industrial collapse happened to appear as the "Achilles heel" of the SEE economy. The SEE 2020 Strategy tends to reverse current trends from the consumption-led model of growth to export-led and FDI driven type of growth, based on accelerated technological development, growth of competitiveness and completion of socioeconomic reform. However, there has been no evidence that is the FDI type of growth would be more efficient for regional development than that based on regional savings, remittances and resources of domestic investors. To note, in recent years domestic sources tremendously exceeded the total sum of FDI. The current situation and future prospects call for developing a common approach in this region, and concomitant supra-national regulations and institutional arrangements.
