Abstract:

Ghimes-Faget, Transylvania, Romania is a complex region where ethnic identity is not clear. The area has been going through a continuing process of change. In the past century, history has been an important aspect in the daily lives of the residing individuals. With the constant changes in history, this has impacted ethnic identity in the region. This region is posed to be “the Csango” region in Transylvania and continues to increase in tourism. However, when examined in detail of how people in Ghimes-Faget ethnically identify themselves, a number of factors influence their decision. This thesis will examine the factors and the elements that I have found to be essential when discussing ethnic identity in the Ghimes region. I will provide examples from field research that was conducted in Ghimes-Faget in the summer of 2008.

Abstract:

This paper examines the issue of cultural assimilation in terms of Romanianization and Magyarization from the angle of a historical ethnography conducted in the Transylvanian village of Ghimeş-Făget, Bacău. These two concepts are readings of social change based on the assumption that the deep social transformations that Transylvania experienced during the changes of rule in the region between Hungary and Romania were parallel to the implementation of deliberate strategies of assimilation. More than simple reforms, these social changes are considered to have created shifts in the population's language, religion, sense of historical heritage and national identity. According to this perspective, Transylvania thus became Magyarized during Hungarian rule, and Romanianized after 1920. Focusing on the evolution of the educational system as a key factor in the execution of these policies, this paper attempts to demonstrate how these two processes can be related to each other and become, in a sense, complementary; it also develops an interpretation of the phenomenon of reassimilation through the concept of “national therapy.”

Abstract:

Cette thèse analyse les politiques à l'égard des minorités ethniques et religieuses sous une perspective comparative entre la Roumanie et la Bulgarie. La première partie s'interroge sur les politiques à l'égard des minorités dès la création des Etats-Nations et ensuite leur situation durant les régimes communistes dans les deux pays. La deuxième partie met l'accent sur l'analyse des deux modèles d'intégration des minorités après 1989 et étudie la question de l'émergence de la représentation politique des Turcs en Bulgarie, des Hongrois en Roumanie et des Roms dans les deux pays. La recherche étudie comment les politiques et les dispositifs sont destinés à favoriser l'intégration des groupes minoritaires dans les deux pays. Une attention est accordée à la genèse et à l'évolution, ainsi qu'à la mise en œuvre de ces projets d'action publique.Cette recherche est enrichie par l'analyse des entretiens semi directifs, des observations ainsi qu'une analyse des statistiques, de la presse nationale et locale, des dispositifs juridiques et des programmes des partis. Quatre hypothèses principales sont défendues dans cette thèse : la transformation des identités ethniques en identités politiques- l'idéologisation des politiques à l'égard de minorités- l'autonomisation du religieux par rapport à l'ethnique et, enfin, de l'impact indirect de l'européanisation sur le traitement des minorités.

Abstract:

The thesis examines the role of the concept of identity under nationalism as a principle of classification, simultaneously subordinating all of social reality to its premise, functioning as a boundary-marker and lending the prevailing social order authority by giving it the appearance of being founded on a correspondence with an immutable, external, natural phenomenon. The actual working of the principle of classification is rendered invisible by this analogy drawn from nature, investing it with a self-evident quality, which embeds it in the habitus (the thought categories and assumptions held in common by the collectivity, which bind it together), in the realm of doxa (unquestioned, shared beliefs). The contextuality of identity can be demonstrated by considering four different aspects, material, functional, affective and circumstantial. Material identity is distinguished by its high degree of stability, deriving from its permanence. It is the least problematic to the individual mind and as such situated within the doxa. Nationalism invokes identity as its principle of classification based on a simple dichotomy (those who belong to the nation and therefore act as repositories of the national essence and those who do not), convincing the members of the collectivity that they are materially different from outsiders. Where nationalism provides the unifying concept the state appropriates its principle of classification. However, the nationalist ideal of complete structural homology between the administrative reach of the state and the territory inhabited by those deemed to belong to the nation is often unattainable, hence the problematic nature of minority identity. It is against this backdrop that representations of Hungarian minority identity are analysed. The content of the representations (which straddle the political and cultural fields) is intimately linked to the dominant principle of classification, which shifted to that favoured by communism in the course of the period considered. Ceauescu's revival of national sentiment as a cohesive force ensured that the presence of the Hungarians in Romania remained problematic, reinforcing attitudes, which still persist today.

Abstract:

The thesis proposes a comparative textual research on Hungarian and Romanian cinema by setting up a model that informs the implicit cinematic reflection on socialism in film. By establishing two aesthetic categories – horizontal and vertical enclosure –, the thesis argues that the spatial structure of the narratives reveals and alludes to the oppressive policy of the Hungarian and Romanian socialist regimes. The first part of the research scrutinises the space in Romanian cinema, and investigates the birth of the vertical enclosure. The analysis focuses on the spatial representation of Bucharest, that is the claustrophobic illustration of the urban landscape and its space depicted by the tools of notorious surveillance on screen. As argued in the thesis, the architectural forms and their film representations build up a spatial constellation identical to Bentham’s Panopticon discussed by Michel Foucault. The second part of the investigation concentrates on Hungarian cinema and the evolution of horizontal enclosure in film. Through textual analysis of the selected films that are set on the Great Hungarian Plain, the thesis discusses the allegorical use of space during and after socialism. Therefore, while concentrating on the circularity of the location and the mise-en-scène of the films – that refer to the isolation and indefiniteness of space – the author argues that the directors recall the parabolic language of the cinematic corpus of the socialist epoch. As concluded by the work, the contemporary art cinema of Romania and Hungary both reference socialism by using space as the main device for the implicit textual reflections. In this way, horizontal and vertical enclosure also emphasise the revival of the forms of the socialist aesthetics.

Abstract:

The primary objective of this research was to identify andanalyse the challenges faced by ethnic minority studentswhile studying and building an academic career in the highereducation system of Serbia. The secondary objective was toanalyse the unconscious and conscious gender biases towardsethnic minority women, when building their academic careersand in reaching decision-making position in academia. Thetertiary objective of was to raise awareness about theincreased demand for human resources in the technical fieldsand that therefore more women should be steered towards thestudying engineering.The research was conducted based on 2192 filled inquestionnaires and 45 semi-structured interviews. Theresearch results showed that language, intersecting withgender, ethnicity and class result in a new inequality concept.It was shown that women are under-represented in technicalfields, which has its roots in gender stereotypes. Finally, itwas shown that women are less motivated to reach higherpositions in the Serbian higher education system than men.The author proposes a set of policy recommendations forsolving/mitigating the identified challenges, e.g. deconstructionof gender stereotypes via improved teachingaids in elementary and high schools, optimised Serbianlanguage teaching to eliminate the language difficulty facedat the start of their higher education; as well as the foundingof an ethnic minority research centre, which would researchthe challenges faced by ethnic minority communities.

Sekundarni cilj je analiza nesvesne i svesne rodnepristrasnosti prema ženama etničkih manjina u toku izgradnjeakademske karijere i pri dosezanju visokih pozicija unutarakademije. Tercijarni cilj istraživanja je podizanje svesti otome, kako je potražnja za ljudskim resursima na tržištu radau oblasti tehničkih nauka značajna i da je stoga potrebnousmeriti veći broj žena ka tim oblastima. Istraživanje jesprovedeno pomoću 2192 popunjena upitnika i 45 polustrukturiranaintervjua. Istraživanjem je utvrđeno da jezik,koji je u intersekciji sa rodom, nacionalnošću i klasom,rezultira novim konceptom nejednakosti. Takođe je dokazanoda su žene nedovoljno zastupljene u tehničkim oblastima, štoje najvećim delom moguće pripisati rodnim stereotipima.Konačno, utvrđeno je da su žene manje motivisane dadosegnu visoke pozicije od muškaraca u sistemu visokogškolstva. Autorka predlaže skup mera za rešavanje i/iliublažavanje identifikovanih izazova, npr. dekonstrukcijarodnih stereotipa pomoću unapređenih nastavnih materijala uosnovnim i srednjim školama, prilađen program učenjasrpskog jezika za učenike iz etničkih manjina sa ciljemizbegavanja jezičke barijere na početku studija; odnosnoosnivanje centra za istraživanje statusa i izazova zajednicaetničkih manjina.

This thesis analyses the policies aimed at influencing the situation of the Hungarian minorities in Romania and Slovakia undertaken by three European organisations, the Council of Europe, the EU and the OSCE High Commissioner on National Minorities. The focus is on the way in which the organisations have conceptualised contested concepts concerning national minorities, minority rights and minority policy in general, when reacting to the policies of the Hungarian, Romanian and Slovak states that have been directed at the Hungarian minorities. Starting with the assumption that many of the concepts upon which minority policies are based are essentially contested, the thesis sets up a framework for analysing the use of specific interpretations of such concepts in argumentation. More specifically, the framework makes it possible to look at how specific interpretations or conceptualisations of such concepts have been used as implicit warrants. By analysing the use of warrants in the texts issued by the organisations in the arguments reacting to the Hungarian minority policies of the three organisations, the thesis provides a picture of how the conceptualisations of different contested concepts developed. Furthermore, by comparing the use of conceptualisations by the organisations, it is argued that although the organisations started out from different positions, they have gradually converged. And this convergence was centred on the emergence of an ideal minority policy which framed the minorities as unitary entities, which should have the right to influence decisions affecting them as minorities. This convergence was due to the appearance of the Framework Convention on the Protection of National Minorities, increased cooperation between the organisations and the reliance of the EU on the assessments of the other two organisations in the context of EU enlargement. Yet, the organisations have often been incoherent, and have treated different issues from very different perspectives.

Abstract:

In response to shifting borders and radical changes in political and economic regimes, a great number of Hungarian Romanians left their homeland in the last century. Drawing on ethnographic fieldwork in a Hungarian village in Romania, in this thesis I argue that the growing uncertainty in villagers’ working lives, a result of the high unemployment accompanying post-socialist transformation, and ethnic and class based disadvantage in Romania, impels them to engage in pluriactivity in their livelihood strategies. This includes circular labour migration in Hungary and other European Union states. Economic inequalities within the expanded EU create an ethnically segmented labour market, in which working class Transylvanian Hungarians become associated with certain types of work, in this case, temporary and often undocumented jobs in the least desirable sectors of the economy.

Abstract:

The diploma thesis deals with the position of the Hungarian minority in Serbian Vojvodina and Romanian Transylvania using the comparative method. Hungarians in Serbia and Romania represent a very large national minority and they became an integral part of the local culture and society. The level of Hungarian minority rights in the host countries is compared in four areas: legislation, political representation and institutionalization of the minority, mother tongue education opportunities and the Hungarian minority media. Apart from a brief outline of the historical context, the work focuses exclusively on the period after the fall of communism in both states to the present. During these years, there has been the biggest shift in the area of minority rights. The concept of ethnic parallelism is applied to all researched areas. Related to this, the so-called ethnolinguistic vitality approach is used, which deals with the conditions for the preservation of minority languages in the majority society. Special attention is paid to the influence of the Hungarian government under Primer Minister Viktor Orbán on the life of Hungarians abroad, which is significantly growing.
