71. Transforming archival description into semantically enriched form using machine learningIvančica Sabadin, 2025, original scientific article Abstract: Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to determine if it is possible to transform the archival description in the relational database into an ontology with a ma-chine learning algorithm. Method/approach: The research will be based on the CRISP-ML(Q) method. The following steps will be carried out: Business and data understanding; Data preparation; Modelling and Evaluation.Results: After the transformation of the archival description, the Random Forest classification was used to predict the predicate in the semantic triplets. The re-sults obtained were: precision: 86.1% and accuracy: 96.5%.Conclusions / findings: Based on the results, we can conclude that the hypoth-esis was confirmed and that the machine learning algorithms are suitable for transforming the archival description in a structured form into an ontology.

72. European Union and protagonists of archival protectionJelka Melik, 2025, original scientific article Abstract: Purpose: The purpose of our paper is to show that historical archives in Slove-nia and in other states, members of European Union, need changes in order to play a more important role in the society. Method/approach: The method used in our paper is first of all a descriptive method, showing the state of archives in Europe today. By using the comparative method, we compared the situation in the archival field in the European Un-ion with the vision of the future development of the European Union. The third method applied is the method of analysis and synthesis. Finally, the compilation method was used to summarize the findings. Results: We found that changes in the arhival field are necessary both in the Member States and at the level of the European Union.Conclusion/findings: In conclusion, we have identified the need for a threefold transformation of the archival field. First, it must be emancipated from its tradi-tional confinement within the cultural sector, with greater emphasis placed on the primary mission of archives: their essential contribution to democracy and the rule of law. Second, the relationship between public archives and records crea-tors must evolve. The archival profession should become more forward-looking, integrating the roles of both historical archivist and records manager. The ar-chivist must emerge as a key actor in the protection of archives, with responsi-bilities spanning from the creation of documents to their long-term preservation in historical repositories.Finally, transformation is also needed at the European Union level. The EU should take a more active role in identifying and supporting the archival needs of its Member States. Archival policy and preservation must become a shared concern and responsibility of the European Union.

73. The impact of regulations and policy on the long-term preservation of digital recordsTatjana Hajtnik, Rihard Fekonja, 2025, original scientific article Abstract: Purpose: This research analyzes the impact of legal, political, and standardiza-tion factors on the long-term preservation of digital records in public archives, with a focus on the Slovenian case within the framework of European regulatory and strategic guidelines. Special attention is given to the connection between in-ternational standards such as ISO/IEC 27001, ISO 16363, ISO/TR 18128, and le-gal acts such as the GDPR and eIDAS 2, and their influence on archival practice.Methodology: A qualitative methodology was used, including analysis of legal documents (laws, regulations), standards, political strategies, and professional literature. This is complemented by an analysis of cases from the Slovenian con-text that illustrate the influence of political decisions on archival legislation and the accessibility of records.Results: This research confirms that long-term preservation of digital records, the establishment of trustworthy repositories, and archival policy are closely intertwined with the legal and political environment. Legal compliance is fun-damentally ensured, but obstacles are mainly evident in the implementation of standards, political stability, institutional independence, and funding. Hypoth-eses H1 and H2 are confirmed, while H3 is partially confirmed – standards have high practical value, but limited implementation. The research also offers specif-ic recommendations and suggestions for further study. Discussion: The article presents the first comprehensive study in the Slovenian context that systematically connects the archival profession with the concepts of political stability, digital transformation, and risk management. It highlights the possibilities of applying international standards within the national legal frame-work and emphasizes the need to align archival policy with other public policies and strategic documents. The results are directly useful for legislators, managers of archival systems, information security experts, and researchers. Published in ReVIS: 01.07.2026; Views: 81; Downloads: 2

76. Kijaši : RomanUM o mestu, ki si je želelo reda bolj kot resniceSrečo Zakrajšek, 2026, artistic work Abstract: Roman se v dogaja mestu, kjer prebivalci izgubljajo zaupanje v institucije, red in medsebojne odnose. Zato skupina občanov ustanovi skrivno skupino Kijašev. Njihov namen je preprost: povzročiteljem težav vrniti posledice njihovih dejanj. Sprva delujejo z opozorili in simbolnimi kaznimi, kar med prebivalci vzbudi občutek reda in varnosti, nadaljujejo pa s silo – s kiji. Toda uspeh Kijašev sproži nevaren proces, ustvari se nov jezik nasilja. Mesto se zato odloči za napredek na podlagi strokovnih in znanstvenih rešitev ter sodelovanja prebivalstva, pri čemer je v veliko pomoč umetna inteligenca, ki predlaga številne inovativne rešitve tudi za prihodnost, obenem pa tudi opozarja na pretirano uporabo sodobnih tehnologij. Roman se zaključi optimistično. Mesto ni popolno, vse težave niso rešene, vendar ponovno postaja skupnost. Ljudje različnih starosti, kultur in prepričanj začnejo skupaj ustvarjati prihodnost. Osrednje sporočilo romana je, da trajnega reda ni mogoče doseči s kaznijo ali silo, temveč z medsebojnim razumevanjem, pripadnostjo in skupnim ustvarjanjem boljšega življenja. Posebna zanimivost romana je, da ga je, na podlagi samo dveh strani avtorjevih navodil, v celoti napisala UI, konkretno ChatGPT. Zato ga imenujemo tudi RomanUM. Roman je nastal v okviru projekta: Ustvarjalnost umetne inteligence. Keywords: Kijaši, roman, RomanUM, mesto, umetna inteligenca, nasilje, skupnost, sodelovanje, projekt, odgovornost, red, varnost, prihodnost, pripadnost, boljše življenje Published in ReVIS: 01.07.2026; Views: 81; Downloads: 4

77. Trauma and the extremist life cycle : a study of former fighters in LebanonJanja Mikulan, 2026, original scientific article Abstract: This study examines the role of trauma in the radicalization
journeys of former Salafi-Jihadist militants from Tripoli, Lebanon.
Utilizing life-history interviews with ten ex-militants and experts,
it explores how different forms of trauma interact across phases
of involvement, engagement, and disengagement. Findings
indicate that early adversity – including neglect, poverty, and
violence – disrupted identity formation, fostered insecurity and
desensitization, increasing susceptibility to recruitment. Social
traumas, such as the 2013 mosque bombings, further fuelled
collective victimhood and a desire for revenge, dignity, and
heroism. During the engagement, a combination of empowering
and traumatizing experiences led to symptoms of moral injury.
Finally, disengagement – often triggered by traumatic
imprisonment – rarely led to successful reintegration, leaving
respondents with complex PTSD, stigma, and marginalization.
Theoretically, this study positions trauma not as a peripheral
factor, but as a central mechanism that shapes involvement,
sustains engagement, and obstructs disengagement. It
demonstrates that radicalization functions both as a coping
strategy and an attempted identity reconstruction. Empirically, it
provides rare qualitative evidence from a Middle Eastern context.
Practically, the findings emphasize the need for trauma-informed
counter-extremism strategies that link individual healing with
community and structural interventions. Keywords: travma, radikalizacija, nasilni ekstremizem, identiteta, salafizem-džihadizem, Libanon Published in ReVIS: 01.07.2026; Views: 105; Downloads: 2

78. The Significance of reflexivity in the framework of wider societal trends and cycles : the case of Slovenia in a global contextTea Golob, Matej Makarovič, 2026, original scientific article Abstract: The article analyses the decline of reflexivity in Slovenia based on four waves of a national survey conducted between 2018 and 2024. The findings reveal a consistent reduction in reflexivity levels, contradicting the linear expectations of modernisation trends of individualisation, universalisation, structural differentiation, and rationalisation. Instead, the results suggest growing instability within prevailing cultural frameworks and value systems, indicating a shift away from individualistic and materialistic orientations. These trends imply that social change may be better understood through cyclical rather than linear models, reflecting generational replacement or broader transformations in the cultural foundations of late modern societies.

80. Collision Between Contractual Software Licenses and Mandatory European Union Law: Open-Source Models, Digital Regulation, and Harmonization of the Legislation of the Republic of SerbiaDejan Popov, 2026, not set Abstract: “Collision of Contractual Software Licenses and Mandatory EU Law: Implications for Open-Source Models and Harmonization of the Legislation of the Republic of Serbia”
This master’s thesis examines the relationship between contractual freedom in software licensing and mandatory norms of European Union law. The research is based on a doctrinal approach and focuses on the analysis of EU directives, the case law of the Court of Justice of the European Union, and a comparative overview of Serbian legislation.
The study focuses on key legal instruments, including Directive 2009/24/EC, and the Cyber Resilience Act (Regulation (EU) 2024/2847), as well as the relevant case law. Particular attention is paid to the principle of exhaustion of distribution rights, the interoperability exception, and the compatibility of open-source licensing models with EU competition law.
The analysis highlights the challenges posed by modern software distribution models, particularly SaaS and subscription-based services, which challenge the traditional application of the exhaustion principle by replacing ownership with access-based use.
The findings indicate that contractual autonomy in software licensing is significantly limited by mandatory EU rules, particularly in the areas of exhaustion, interoperability, and reverse engineering. Additional constraints arise from new regulatory frameworks that impose requirements related to security, transparency, and risk management.
The comparative analysis indicates that, despite formal harmonization with EU law, the Serbian legal framework still contains significant gaps, particularly in the areas of interoperability, digital exhaustion, and enforcement of mandatory norms. These inconsistencies create legal uncertainty and practical challenges for Serbian IT companies operating in the European market.
The thesis concludes that further legislative and institutional alignment is necessary in order to ensure effective application of EU standards and greater legal certainty in the field of software licensing.
