        "I am Jugoslovenka!"

        Feminist performance politics during and after Yugoslav Socialism

        by Jasmina Tumbas, Amelia Jones, Marsha Meskimmon

        "I am Jugoslovenka" argues that queer-feminist artistic and political resistance were paradoxically enabled by socialist Yugoslavia's unique history of patriarchy and women's emancipation. Spanning performance and conceptual art, video works, film and pop music, lesbian activism and press photos of female snipers in the Yugoslav wars, the book analyses feminist resistance in a range of performative actions that manifest the radical embodiment of Yugoslavia's anti-fascist, transnational and feminist legacies. It covers celebrated and lesser-known artists from the 1970s to today, including Marina Abramovic, Sanja Ivekovic, Vlasta Delimar, Tanja Ostojic, Selma Selman and Helena Janecic, along with music legends Lepa Brena and Esma Redzepova. "I am Jugoslovenka" tells a unique story of women's resistance through the intersection of feminism, socialism and nationalism in East European visual culture.

        Basic emotions - Happiness

        by Tatjana Gjurković, Tea Knežević, Jelena Brezovec

        Happiness is one of the basic emotions in children and it occurs in the infant period. We often think that happiness does not require much discussion nor explanation because it is a good and positive feeling. However, happiness in small children can sometimes be incorrectly interpreted, wrongly processed, or negatively manifested in behavior, so this picture book series deals specifically with those situations. Picture books in the series are focused on the following topics: - Little fox learned that happiness lives in hearts / Happiness and material things or how to teach children that happiness does not reside outside of us, in toys and things, but that it is in our hearts- Lioness can be happy for others / Happiness for others or how to teach children that it is important to know how to be happy for others and their success for our own emotional health - Horse shares his happiness after effort and success / Happiness because of one’s own effort and success or how to teach children do accept help, try hard and then feel happiness and self-confidence because of their own success - Hamster feels calm and quiet happiness / Active happiness versus calm happiness or how to teach children to calm down, take a break, and feel happy as peace and relaxation within themselves
