Archaeology with its methodology is currently undergoing massive changes. While until recently, “archaeology” generally had the connotation of “digging” and the making of individual precious archaeological fi nds, non-invasive research methods are gaining more and more importance and have begun to challenge archaeological excavations as the primary archaeological information source. Moreover, today’s widespread use of large scale archaeological prospection has shifted the focus from single sites and finds to a more comprehensive approach into the research of cultural landscapes.

COBISS.SI-ID: 4624684Marx's famous words that it is not enough just to interpret it, but to change the world above all, have, as we know, impressed millions over time; in a planetary sense, they helped ignite the fires of the revolution and thus essentially mark the history of the 20th century. But among those who, following in the footsteps of Marx, then set about changing the world, there was never a unanimous consensus on which path to take in order to achieve real change. Quite the opposite; In fact, the history of the left in general and of world communism in particular has been marked throughout, and especially in the period between the two world wars, by sharp ideological disputes, political divisions and factional struggles that often ended in the thought of Leo Trotsky, in the blood.

COBISS.SI-ID: 1542022340Proliferation of renewable energy is high on the agenda of the European Union. In it, local government plays an important role. Besides traditional regulatory approaches such as legislation, nudging could have a positive effect on achieving the desired policy goals. This article analyses the legal framework within which the local-level practice of nudging is embedded in the Republic of Slovenia. Since EU-level legislation and ECHR aspects are analysed as well, the application of findings is broader than merely the national legal system. Nudging could be performed either by using the existing infrastructure or through the creation of local energy organisations. Three main groups of legal limitations are identified, namely state-level limitations, GDPR-related concerns and constitutional or human rights considerations. Defaults and individualised informing are emphasized as two of the most promising nudge-types in the field of renewable energy.
