went into full swing in the middle of the last decade. The studies are flourishing,
the subjects are proliferating until changing beyond recognition. The studies
have been turned to school. The doctoral studies have become comparable to
the previous master study. The criticism regarding the decision on the adoption
of the Bologna Declaration has been multiplying. It seems that the academic
community carries the responsibility for the upsides and the downsides. It was
not the ministers who proposed about 2,700 different diplomas, but rather the
mentioned community. What worries is the fact that the academic community
has never asked itself the question why Europe should need Bologna at all.
One of the possible reasons is the decision that the rich, the powerful, and the
aggressive need cheap, trained but uneducated professionals for workplaces.
And this is now promoted from the highest places in Croatia, and precisely at
the moment when an average American will change 10 to 14 workplaces until
the age of 38. There is one more idea behind the Bologna. Everything that has
any value has to be pulled out of the poorer countries, especially in the field of
natural sciences and technology.

(javnim i privatnim) životom građana. Klasični oblici totalitarizma – poput
fašizma, nacionalsocijalizma, staljinizma – zasnivali su se neposredno na represiji
i teroru, dok se neoliberalizam kao suvremeni oblik totalitarizma tek posredno
zasniva na represiji i teroru dok se neposredno temelji na manipulaciji.
Manipulacija počinje u medijskom prostoru odakle gotovo neprimjetno prelazi
u manipulaciju u političkoj domeni te naposljetku u manipulaciju »krajnjim
argumentom« fizičke moći u prepoznatljivim oblicima represije i terora (waterboarding,
Guantanamo, napad na Irak, politička umorstva i sl.). Osim prema
metodologiji, klasični i suvremeni totalitarizam razlikuju se i prema nositelju;
dok je nositelj, odnosno subjekt klasičnog totalitarizma u pravilu devijantni
oblik državne tvorevine, suvremeni je totalitarizam mrežnog karaktera i nema
