“…In foreign relations this was reflected in the creation of a certain 'exile-ability', i.e. the qualification for 'leaving' and 'functioning' home-and interest-related, even when far from home and working for long periods of time in unfamiliar conditions [14]. A typical example of this practice was the establishment of Hanseatic Offices in medieval times as the home-like base of merchants' communities in their principal destinations.…”

Regardless of size or location, port cities were strongly affected by industrial decline and forced to reinvent themselves. The port city we once knew was coined by a particular identity and culture, but now a new type of maritime city emerges with high-tech production, research institutions, tourism, leisure and other services. So, the port city in western countries underwent serious changes in its historic development path. In this process of transformation, one of the most important challenges was and is to change thinking and mentalities. The more distinctive the port city, the more exclusive and specialised its profile, culture and character-products of a historic legacy of maritime trading, seafaring, shipbuilding and all their related productive and service capacities-the greater the difficulty of responding to these challenges. Nonetheless, the changing patterns of local structures reflect essential elements and expressions of a typical local culture. The following reflections will argue that (1) "local culture" forms a third factor besides the socioeconomic structures and the institutional system, which strongly determines the local development; (2) this "local culture" is more or less a common characteristic of port cities all over Europe and in the western industrialised parts of the world, which have their roots in the European history (i.e. in USA or Australia) and (3) even today the typical maritime "local culture" plays an important role for the development of the postmodern port city, in spite of the strong forces of globalisation. Local culture affects the process of transformation by various functions. Hence, the typical development paths of port cities are not just pure adaptations to global dynamics. They are more an expression of a certain cultural autonomy reproducing the individuality and the diversity of port cities as well as their differences to the territorial, inland towns.

SAŽETAK:Koji su argumenti koji govore protiv vlade? Ima ih nekoliko. Prvo, u slučaju neuspjeha, postoji automatski izlaz: tvrtke koje ne ostvare dobit, objavit će bankrot, a njihovi resursi imaju tendenciju otići drugim, učinkovitijim upraviteljima. Drugo, poduzetnici upravljaju svojim vlastitim financijskim sredstvima ili sredstvima koja im je netko dobrovoljno povjerio. Međutim, to ne vrijedi za birokrate i političare. I što je najvažnije, prilikom svake komercijalne interakcije na tržištu, bilo da se radi o prodaji, kupovini, iznajmljivanju , davanju ili uzimanju zajma, prisutna je uzajamna dobit, barem u ex ante smislu predviđanja te također i ex post, po završetku obavljene trgovine. To se rijetko događa u etatizmu, svakako ne kad su u pitanju izvori financiranja i oporezivanja, budući da oni nisu dobrovoljni. Iznimka su relativno nevažni slučajevi kada kupac kupi nešto od vlade, poput recimo karte za prelazak mosta ili proizvođač proda nešto toj organizacijia (vladi), poput zrakoplova. Članak koji je pred vama je pokušaj elaboriranja ovih razmišljanja. KLJUČNE RIJEČI: vlada, anarhizam, libertarijanizam (slobodarstvo), pravda ABSTRACT:What is the argument against government? There are several. For one thing, there is automatic exit for failure: businesses that do not earn a profit go bankrupt, and their resources tend to migrate to other, more effective, managers. For another, entrepreneurs operate with their own funds, or those voluntarily entrusted to them. This does not apply to bureaucrats and politicians, in sharp contrast. Perhaps most important, in the case of each and every commercial interaction in the market, buying, selling, renting, lending, borrowing, there is mutual gain at least in the ex ante sense of anticipations, and usually ex post, after the trade, as well. This rarely occurs under statism, at least not with regard to its source of funds, taxation, since it is not voluntary. An exception would be the relatively unimportant cases in which a consumer purchases something from the government, such as a ticket to cross a bridge, or a producer sells something to this organization, such as an airplane. The present paper is an attempt to elaborate upon this considerations.

“…It may be that the latest phase of globalisation is producing, on the back of information technology and manic levels of travel, (19) Which is not to say that Sloterdijk is unaware of cultural differences in the qualities of space and spatiality. In particular, and particularly relevant to this paper, see the discussion of Chinese space in the second volume of Spha« ren (Sloterdijk, 1999). Oddly, he makes little of such differences.…”

'I have recognised through my travels that those with views quite contrary to ours are not on that account barbarians or savages, but that many of them make use of reason as much or more than we do. I thought, too, how the same man, with the same mind, if brought up from infancy among the French or Germans, develops otherwise than he would if he had always lived among the Chinese or cannibals and how, even in our fashions or dress, the very thing that pleased us ten years ago, and will perhaps please us again ten years hence, now strikes us as extravagant and ridiculous. Thus it is custom and example that persuade us, rather than any certain knowledge' (Descartes, 1994, p119).'Spatial cognition is a fundamental design requirement for every mobile species with a fixed territory or home base. And there is little doubt that it plays a central role in human thinking and reasoning. Indeed, the evidence for that centrality is all around us, in our language where spatial metaphors are used for many other domains, in the obvious cognitive utility of diagrams and tables, and in the special role of place in memory. The idea that space is a fundamental intuition built into our nature goes back at least to Kant, and the idea that our apperception of space is governed by cognitive universals informs much cognitive science. But in some ways human spatial cognition is puzzling. First, it is unspectacular -we are not as a species, compared to bees or pigeons, bats or whales, particularly good at finding our way around. Second, human spatial cognition is obviously variable -hunters, sailors and taxi-drivers are in a different league from the ordinary city dweller. This suggest that many aspects of effective spatial thinking depend on cultural factors, which in turn suggests limits to cognitive universals in this area ( 'We shall have to make a beginning from our written characters, for we suppose these to be our earliest form of picture, and even their present form has not entirely lost the pictorial quality' (Chiang Yee, 1960, p16).2
