Jakovljevic considers the concept of theatricality as central to understanding the events that took place in Yugoslavia. He examines the country’s trials, state ceremonies and festivals, army maneuvers, propaganda, and pop culture as “rehearsals and temporary enactments of an ideologically formulated future.”.

Wetlands are extremely valuable natural features that have decreased significantly in number over time in Illinois and the United States ... Their important functions include flood protection, water conservation in times of drought, groundwater recharge, improvement of water quality through sediment reduction and contaminant removal, and providing habitat for native animals and plants, including many sensitive and state-listed threatened and endangered species ... Due to a federal "no net loss" policy on wetlands adopted through executive order by President George H. Bush in 1990, as well as a prevailing heightened interest in conservation in general, there is currently considerable interest in the restoration and creation of wetlands. Both Section-404 of the Clean Water Act of 1972 and the Swampbuster Provision of the Food Securities Act of 1985 require compensation or mitigation for the loss of wetlands. A number of federal and state programs such as Section 319 of the Clean Water Act and the Conservation Reserve Program within the Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) encourage wetland restoration and creation. In addition, various conservation organizations, such as The Nature Conservancy and Ducks Unlimited are very active in wetland restoration. Despite wetland restoration efforts and the national goal of no net loss, wetlands and wetland functions continue to be lost due to degradation of existing wetlands ... Unfortunately, no reliable information exists on the quality of existing wetlands or on trends in wetland quality over time ... The functional quality of existing wetlands is likely decreasing in many areas due to the combined effects of habitat fragmentation, alteration of hydrology, invasive species, and continued input of nutrients and pollutants. Furthermore, it is still debatable whether created or restored wetlands can adequately replace the suite of ecological functions provided by natural wetlands ... and the failure of many wetland compensation projects contributes to a continued national net loss of wetland functions ... The need for post-construction site monitoring and assessment of created and restored wetlands to evaluate functional success is widely recognized. ... At this time, there is little agreement on how to assess the success on quality of wetland restorations or creations.

This project is for the ecological rehabilitation of lagoons and natural communities at 24 parks within the Chicago Park District. The development of Chicago's lagoon system began shortly after the State of Illinois created the Chicago Park District in 1869. The lagoons were expanded over the next 50 years into 14 parks and they have become extremely important ecologic, recreation, and historic resources. A variety of factors over the last 140 years have contributed to the current deteriorated condition of the lagoons which require the expenditure of funds for major rehabilitation activities. Age of infrastructure, erosion, and sedimentation were the natural forces at work; however, the lagoons' popularity and lack of comprehensive management plan also contributed. All of the lagoons are eligible to be listed on the National Register of Historic places as major contributing features. Additionally, the lagoons in Columbus, Garfield, Humboldt, Jackson, Lincoln, Sherman and Washington Parks are historic landmarks. The Park District has already invested over $5 million for partial lagoon restoration at Humboldt, Douglas, Sherman, McKinley, Riis and Garfield Parks, and additional work is required.
