Ило Трајковски По професија, како социолог, се препознавам себеси како научник. И затоа, во моите настапи за поширока јавност настојувам да се држам до принципите на научноста. Тоа значи, пред сè, до научниот метод. Според Исак Њутн, научноста е специфичен начин на испитување на појавите, начин на доаѓање до сознанија за појавите или начин на […]
Ilo Trajkovski The issue of leaving the country is getting more and more serious. We run out of doctors and workers, there are less and less young people, and the elderly are left on their own. Along with this, the country runs out of hope, the prospect disappears. Stories of NATO and EU integration don’t […]
Ilo Trajkovski Many values have collapsed in this time of transition, of which it seems we cannot get out. The meaning of many things that mattered to us has been destroyed, which served us as signs of our behavior as people, as parents and children, as collaborators, colleagues and as citizens. However you prefer, but […]
Ilo Trajkovski Many events during this past year, and especially after April 27, 2017, raise the question of the relationship between partisanship and civilization. But let’s be completely honest with ourselves. This question is not exclusively ours. I did not find the immediate reason for this consideration of this question in an event in our […]
Ilo Trajkovski The referendum has passed! Long live the referendum! In the case of our referendum, it’s as if the principle to which all conflicting societies or groups persist is somehow denied. According to this principle, the profit and joy of one is the loss and grief of the other. Although we are undoubtedly such […]
Ilo Trajkovski The referendum campaign is in full swing. Emotional temperatures are high and rise even higher. Like in a pan in which ajvar, or aver if you prefer, is cooked. Until September 30th, the ‘Ajvar Day’, it is expected various oils that prevent the combustion of the mixture of peppers and aubergines to come […]
These days, the mass media renewed the news about the publication of the so-called Shanghai list of the best universities in the world. From the journalistic circles, the news spread across the academic community to the wider public. Parallel to the presentation of information, messages are also posted that should influence the political awareness of […]
Ilinden 2018 is over! Once again, the celebration of our biggest national holiday, rather than strengthening national unity, has brought a deepening of divisions. The unpleasant events of the celebration at Meckin Kamen reminded us of a similar feuding of the holiday twenty years ago. Our current President, Gjorgje Ivanov, compared himself with the then-President […]
One of the most commonly heard words nowadays is the term “leaders’ meeting”. The media yet again diverts the attention of the public to our leaders. My view of them is guided by the question of the sources of their power. Where does the power of the Macedonian political elites, leaders and leadership come from? […]
I’ve been traveling a lot out of the country in the past ten days. Often for a longer period of time. And every time I went back, even though I’m a sociologist, I was amazed at the speed at which the changes took place. Not so much from the material aspects of the changed appearance […]
And so it happened! The expectations of the Macedonian ethno-nationalists that their Greek counterparts could “save” us from the presumed catastrophic agreement, which Prime Minister Zaev accepted, did not come true. Tsipras endured their objections and the agreement was signed. The Macedonian Parliament ratified it. Despite the opposition of Greek and Macedonian nationalists, the wheel […]
“We have one name, we carry it in our soul, we would give our lives for you, Oh Macedonia!” That’s what the song says! Macedonia is, therefore, a soul – someone’s. Macedonia is an idea for something and for someone. And ideas are the guides to action, including the willingness to sacrifice the life for […]
The title of this first article of mine seems to be an appropriate announcement of what I intend to achieve with the planned columnist series in the “Nezavisen/Independent” daily newspaper. My intention is to analyze and meditate on the many phenomena in our modern society that are the result of unlawfulness or as it is […]
