SVETOZAR BOTORIĆ, the first film producer in the Balkans
Svetozar BOTORIĆ was born in 1857 in a small country spot called Botorići (where members of his family still live and dedicate themselves to agriculture), not away from the mountainous village of Opaljenik, 20 km distant from Ivanjica, i.e. 240 km far from Belgrade. Following his arrival in Belgrade, S. Botorić worked in various commercial businesses; as an exceptional hard-worker, he succeeded in saving money and acquired successively a coffe-shop and a restaurant; finally, he became (in May 1899) the owner of the hotel «Paris», located at Terazije (centre of Belgrade). Quickly, he had intuition of the importance of cinema industry, opened a movie theater in his hotel and became the representative of the famous «Pathé frères» film company in the Balkans. Then, he invested his own resources (State subsidies did not exist) and, in a short period (1911-1914), he produced two feature films and twenty documentaries. His whole activity was designed to help his country and Serbian people and leave spiritual and cultural legacy to future generations. His patriotic work did not stay unnoticed by Serbian enemies : promptly after their invading of Serbia (1915), Austro-Hungarians sent him to a concentration camp in Nežider. S.Botorić died there on November 27th 1916, leaving his widow Slavka with three minor children: his son Miloš (13 years old), daughter Roksanda (9y) and little Stanica (7 yrs). Slavka Botorić did not marry again and succeeded in bringing up her children (all of them had university degrees), asking them to never forget their roots and spiritual and cultural Serbian traditions.

Треба бдети планетарно Разговор са Његовим Преосвештенством Епископом лосанђелеским и западноамеричким Максимом
У Христу је могућ свет без граница
Преосвећени владико, можете ли да нам кажете неколико речи о томе шта је то глобализација и како Православна Црква посматра савремене токове глобализације?
- Као и сваки други живи организам, тако и Црква врло динамично осећа како глобализација, као нова друштвена парадигма, обликује наше животе. Глобализација је непобитна реалност, чија су доминантна обележја: глобални капитализам, глобална влада и глобално грађанско друштво. Уопштено говорећи, то је тежња и деловање ка поимању света као једног, као целине. Зато глобализацију схватам као нови појам за једну стару, готово архетипску, тежњу и појаву а то је сложено питање односа „јединства" и „мноштва" које од самих почетака мучи људски дух. Мислим да је глобализација - заједно са њеним синонимима, као што су мондијализација, екуменизам, интегризам, космополитизам и сл. - неизбежна тема за размишљање о природи људског друштва и начинима његовог функционисања у том процесу „сажимања света" и кристалисања опште свести о свету као једном. Свакако, питање није само теоријско него се дотиче свих практичних видова живота. Са разлогом сматрам да је посреди не само политички него метафизички проблем: како плуралитет довести у јединство са Једним, избећи превагу једног над многим и vice versa. Главно питање јесте: како да појединачно и локално не буде жртвовано, или посматрано само као пуки шраф у безличном строју васељенског механизма? Социолози, политиколози и други стручњаци нас обавештавају о позитивним и негативним импликацијама овог феномена кроз економску, политичку, културну, техничку призму - јер то су аспекти кроз које се глобализација активно одвија.
