Story You Don't Want to Read, About People You Don't Want to Meet

By: Aleksandra Osman

No one dreams of becoming a refugee. I know – I was one, a child fleeing war-torn Sarajevo. Though the Bosnian War has faded from global attention, for those it displaced, the struggle persists. Being a refugee is not a one-time event, but a lifelong series of petty humiliations as you chase the elusive prize of acceptance in a new homeland. This collection shares raw stories from refugees like me who now call Canada home. On paper, Canada welcomes diversity; in reality, immigrants often face a glass ceiling that excludes us from full participation. With irony, in this multicultural nation we are made to feel like uncomfortable outcasts burdened by our pasts. You may not want to hear our stories because they highlight bitter truths - that even in an open-armed country, refugees endure judgement and distance. But acknowledging these stories is the first step toward positive change. By reading about our intersecting struggles you become part of the solution helping to shift perspectives and bring us in from the margins. Our histories make some uncomfortable, but are essential to share if we hope to build a more inclusive society.

Ideology, Political Transitions and the City

The Case of Mostar, Bosnia and Herzegovina

By: Aleksandra Djurasovic

Recent history has seen Bosnian and Herzegovinian (BiH) cities undergoing several transitions. Their cities have developed under socialism (1945 – 1992), have suffered through the civil war during the 1990s, and during the last twenty years have been undergoing a slow and multifaceted transition to an indeterminate end point. Focusing on the post-socialist, postwar, and neoliberal transitions experienced in BiH, the book shows that planning systems deviated from control-oriented and top-down regulation to flexible approaches for more open for informal development. The book analyzes several levels of planning-related processes: the former Yugoslavia, BiH, the city of Mostar, and three urban zones (the Industrial Zone Bišće Polje, the City Zone Rondo, and the Historic District and the Old Town Zone) in order to offer insights into the new planning systems in the late phase of post-socialist transition.

Tężnie jako czynnik kształtujący mikrobiologiczną jakość powietrza w uzdrowisku

By: ALEKSANDRA BURKOWSKA-BUT

W ostatnich latach popularnym sposobem na przyciągnięcie turystów i uatrakcyjnienie miejscowości uzdrowiskowych stało się budowanie otwartych inhalatoriów. Tężnie solankowe mogą być nie tylko atrakcją turystyczną, ale i ważnym obiektem leczniczym. Jednak brakuje doniesień literaturowych na temat ich funkcjonowania i oddziaływania tężni, szczególnie w kontekście mikrobiologii środowiskowej oraz zdrowia publicznego. Praca ta zawiera pierwszą długoterminową ocenę mikrobiologicznego zanieczyszczenia powietrza na terenie uzdrowisk nizinnych ze szczególnym uwzględnieniem otoczenia naturalnych inhalatoriów.
