prof. dr. Darko Darovec Visokošolski učitelj
Darko Darovec is Full Professor of history (from 2009). His research work is based on large amounts of unpublished primary archival sources, preserved in archives and libraries in Koper, Piran, Venice, Ljubljana, Trieste, Vienna, Rijeka and Pazin. On the basis of his research over the last few years he presented the complex image of the borderland issues and the structure of conflicts and crises in the Adriatic region (f. e. the book A Brief history of Istra, which was also reprinted and translated into languages: English, Croatian, Italian). Long-term experience in the fields of social, economic and cultural history of Istria and Northern-Adriatic region during the Middle Ages and especially in early modern period present the basis of his work which is also influenced by his studies of different sources and literature published within the Adriatic region and elsewhere. His main field of research are: medieval and modern history of Istria, Slovenia and Mediterranean, with a special emphasis on law history, history of culture, society and economy. In the frame of his research projects is dealing with European customary systems of conflict resolution (project FAIDA – Marie Curie Actions 7th FP EU, at Ca’ Foscari University Venice) and in the context of research program The past of North Eastern Slovenia and neighbouring regions of Austria, Hungary and Croatia (at University of Maribor) is dealing with Slovenian modern history, especially from the interdisciplinary perspective of the Slovenian nation and state bulding, and with different forms of representations of cultural memory within research project “The Contemporality of the Understanding Context and the Expression of Personal and Social Freedom”, within research project »Social Functions of Fairy Tales« at the Institute IRRIS and within research project “Cultural Memory of Slovene Nation and State Building”, financed by Slovenian Research Agency.
