Abstract:

Borders within borders: A new regionalism in contemporary Croatian literatureThe article is an attempt at a synthetic presentation of Croatian literature researchers’ reflection about regionalism in the twentieth and the beginning of the twenty-first century. The author observes that there is a tendency to see Croatian literature as one that produces two different models of texts in terms of poetics and philosophy – the northern, which is “Central European,” and the southern, which is “Mediterranean.” She then examines the coherence of the “ideal types” delineated by researches according to the themes and literary devices utilised, based on two short stories from 2006, by writers one of whom is from the northern and the other – from the southern part of the country. Granice wewnątrz granic. Nowy regionalizm we współczesnej literaturze chorwackiejArtykuł jest próbą syntetycznej prezentacji refleksji chorwackich badaczy literatury na temat regionalizmu w XX i na początku XXI wieku. Autorka wskazuje na istnienie tendencji do postrzegania chorwackiej literatury jako realizującej dwa odmienne – północny tj. środkowoeuropejski oraz południowy tj. śródziemnomorski – modele tekstów w zakresie poetyki i filozofii, a następnie na podstawie dwóch opowiadań z 2006 roku, napisanych przez pisarzy z Północy i Południa, sprawdza przystawalność nakreślonych przez badaczy „typów idealnych” do materiału literackiego.

Abstract:

AbstractAnalysis of political regionalism and regionalist parties has traditionally neglected the case of Germany. We argue that this is a curious ommission. This article looks to redress this balance by applying frameworks created for understanding the determinants of regionalist party success to the Bavarian Christian Social Union (CSU) and the eastern Germany Party of Democratic Socialism (1990–2005, PDS). Although very different in terms of their politics, both parties have been successful as they have followed strategies and tactics evident in the broader regionalist parties' literature. This article therefore deepens our knowledge of regionalism in Germany, while also testing regionalist literatures in a new country-context.

ResumenMagallanes se ha provisto a sí misma de una literatura particular y con tintes que la singulariza con respecto a la producción del resto del país. Desde esta posición,haciendo primar las particularidades por sobre la hegemonía que se cierne sobre el continente, la novela de Eugenio Mimica plantea la posibilidad de reinvención del cono sur austral a través de la refundación histórica, política y económica de Magallanes, El atractivo del discurso mimiciano reside en que, en este afán por recuperar la historia particular, se cae en un regionalismo exacerbado y xenofóbico, propio de la condición postmoderna. EPalabras clave: utopía/distopía, enclave, frontera, postmodernidad, regionalismo.Utopian/dystopian regionalist discourse on Un adiós al descontento by Eugenio MimicaAbstractMagallanes has provided itself a particular literature that makes it unique with regards to the literary production of the rest of the country. From this perspective, taking precedence over the continental hegemony, Eugenio Mimica´s novel raises the possibility of reinventing the Southern Cone through a historical, political and economic refounding of Magallanes, not from the official historiography, butfrom its own formation as insular and southern enclave. The appeal of Mimician discourse lies in its zeal for retrieving a particular story, it falls into an exacerbatedand xenophobic regionalism of postmodernity.Key words: utopia/dystopia, location, border, postmodernity, regionalism

Abstract:

As the discipline of Comparative Literature expands beyond its traditional concentration on the literatures of a few European great powers, our expanded range of vision involves rethinking Europe itself as well as the larger global production of literature. Already in the 19th century, comparatists were deeply engaged in sorting out relations between major powers and minor literatures, as can be seen in the ambitious early journal Acta Comparationis Litterarum Universarum, edited in the 1870s by the Transylvanian comparatist Hugo Meltzl. This article discusses Meltzl's journal and its struggles against the great-power cosmopolitanism represented by Meltzl's rival, the German comparatist Max Koch. As an illustration of the importance of trans-national perspectives in understanding European identity, the article concludes with a discussion of the recording of pagan myth in medieval Iceland.

Abstract:

Mark Storey, "Country Matters: Rural Fiction, Urban Modernity, and the Problem of American Regionalism" (pp. 192––213) This essay intervenes in the critical debates surrounding nineteenth-century American regionalism, arguing that such debates have tended to ignore the possibility of a shared and trans-regional category of "rural fiction." Developing this notion, I suggest that literary representations of rural life in the late nineteenth century are a crucial and neglected way of understanding the geographically indiscrete transformations of urban-capitalist modernity. Further, by examining these transformations through the prism of rural fiction, we can challenge the urban-centric tendency of postbellum American literary history. Drawing on several writers who have been the focus of much of critics' attentions on regionalism (Edward Eggleston, Hamlin Garland, and Sarah orne Jewett in particular), this essay considers both the generic and thematic instabilities of rural fiction, arguing that these instabilities serve to encode and refract the social and cultural context from which this fiction emerges. Reading rural fiction against the background of the increasing similarities between geographically distinct areas of rural life, and reconsidering many of the works that we currently gather under the regionalist rubric as, instead, rural, a distinct perspective can be gained on the standardizing and flattening processes of modernity itself.

Abstract:

O regionalismo gaúcho esteve historicamente permeado de singularidades, tendo a construção do tipo característico “centauro dos pampas” predominante em muitos escritos do gênero. Mesmo que a literatura gaúcha goze de multiplicidade de textos, que retomem características específicas dos lugares em que foram construídas, há textos que rumam para a universalidade com poucas referências ao regional. A presente pesquisa bibliográfica de cunho qualitativo visa empreender reflexões acerca da literatura gaúcha, que se desprende do regionalismo característico para aventurar-se pelos terrenos da universalidade. Se para Ítalo Calvino, o clássico é aquele que não terminou de dizer o que tinha para dizer, Anne-Marie Thiesse intitulou o “check-list identitário” uma série de especificidades capazes de garantir a singularidade de determinado grupo social. Neste contexto, ter-se-á a análise da obra Pequenas epifanias, de Caio Fernando Abreu. Os resultados apontam que obras como esta se constituem a exceção à regra sem perder reconhecimento, com seu lugar entre os pares da literatura regional, mesmo que fuja da “pureza inicial” caracterizadora da literatura gaúcha. Palavras-chave: Literatura Regional. Crônica. Crítica Literária. Universal. AbstractThe Rio Grande do Sul regionalism was historically permeated by singularities, with the construction of the characteristic type “centaur of Pampas” prevalent in a lot of writings. Even though the Rio Grande do Sul literature enjoys a multitude of texts that comprise specific features aboutthe places wherethey were built, there are texts that head for the universality with few references to the regional. This bibliographical research of qualitative nature aims at undertaking reflections about the Gaucho literature which breaks loose from characteristic regionalism to venture out towards the universality land. To Italo Calvino, the classic is the one that has not finished saying what he or she had to say, AnneMarie Thiesse entitled the “check-list identity” a series of special features capable of ensuring the uniqueness of a particular social group. In this context, there is the analysis of the book Pequenas epifanias, by Caio Fernando Abreu. The results show that books like this are an exception to the rule without losing recognition, with its place among the pairs of regional literature, even though it deviates from the “original purity” characterizing the Gaúcha literature.

Abstract:

This essay isolates, analyzes, and contextualizes a prevalent character type in nineteenth-century American fiction that it calls (following Ina Ferris) the “remnant.” Although remnants appear in the earliest American experiments in fiction, the type becomes truly ubiquitous in postbellum regionalist writing. Depicted as living relics or belated leftovers from superseded cultural epochs, remnants, the essay claims, project the distinctly modern modalities of displacement and ontological insecurity into the regionalist texts they inhabit, thus unsettling the conventional critical readings of the genre as a backward-looking nostalgic form while also opening anew the question of regionalism’s complicated appeal for its contemporary readers. While beginning and ending with Sarah Orne Jewett’s representative remnant figure, Captain Littlepage, the essay also surveys several lesser-known examples, discusses the type’s peculiar characteristics, and speculates on the reactions it drew from its original audiences.

Abstract:

Most of the current scholarship focuses on the functional aspects of regionalism such as economic and security issues, and the literature tends to be too focused on American or European concerns (Katzenstein, 2005; Higgott, 2007; Ravenhill, 2008). Despite the early examination of varied ideas of Asian regionalism (Milner and Johnson 1997, He, 2004, Acharya 2009), there remains a substantive lack of critical scholarship that focuses on the study of Asian ideas, proposals, and visions of regionalism.

Abstract:

In his recently published seminar Life Death (1975–76), Derrida engages in a close reading of Heidegger's refutation of the biologistic interpretation of Nietzsche. Derrida explains that, building on his interpretation of Nietzsche as the peak of metaphysics, Heidegger wishes to rescue the latter's metaphysical discourse from its biologizing character. In this article, I argue that Derrida's reading centres on the ontological regionalism undergirding Heidegger's refutation. To develop this argument, I test the following three hypotheses. First, I show that the later exploration offered in Life Death draws on the schematic reading of Heidegger's question of being provided in Of Grammatology (1967). Second, I explain that, for Derrida, through his refutation of Nietzsche's supposed biologism, Heidegger reaffirms ontological regionalism in order to secure the whole interpretative system that interweaves together his reading of Nietzsche and Western metaphysics and his thinking of being. Finally, I highlight Derrida's emphasis on the relentlessness of Heidegger's denunciation of biologism. I demonstrate that, for Derrida, this can be explained as biology, which is a discourse on life and nature that since its beginnings touches on the blind point of regionalism.

Abstract:

The problem of refugees has become a global phenomenon that brings widespread impacts to all involving parties. The humanitarian crisis of the Rohingya ethnic group increased the number of refugees in ASEAN who needs international protection. However, legal and political framework governing refugee protection in ASEAN is still very insignificant. This research is to answer whether regionalism is successful in resolving the problem of refugees in international level and whether a regionalism approach can be applied in ASEAN level to deal with refugees. This study used normative juridical research methods with literature study techniques. Based on the results, the study revealed that regionalism has successfully solved the problem of refugees. However, the development of regionalism needs to be improved to deal with mass-influx problems. Regionalism has succeeded in encouraging world regions such as Europe, Africa, and Latin America to form various binding regional mechanisms (CEAS, OAU Convention, and Cartagena Declaration). Compared to the universal approach, regionalism is a better option because of its flexible nature. It also provides choices to member states in handling refugee protection activities. Based on the comparison of regionalism practices from the three regions, the regionalism approach in ASEAN has a great potential to solve refugee problems more effectively.

Abstract:

The concept of regionalism reemerged in literary studies discussions a few years ago. The following essay discusses this concept in the context of late medieval literature. In the essay the author is applying three new approaches to the notion of regionalism, which are based on the studies of both language and literature. On the basis of the discussed results, the dychotomy of two structures is introduced: ‚Abgeschlossenheit‘ of a region and its ‚Durchlässigkeit‘.

Abstract:

The article deals with the issue of regional development in the context of the paradigm called the new regionalism. The main aim of the analysis was to show the essence and specifics of the concept of new regionalism in relation to contemporary development processes in the regional dimension. In the first part of the article – using the method of analysis of the literature on the subject – a concise characterisation of the most important trends and directions of changes in the theoretical approaches to regional development was made. On this background, the discourse of the new regionalism was presented, focusing on the discussion issues of ideological, scientific and practical character identified in the studies on regionalism. Then the essence of the new regionalism as a development paradigm for modern regions was presented. In the last part of the article, the main threads of the critical reception of the concept of new regionalism are mentioned. The analysis and characteristics carried out in the article lead to the conclusion that the paradigm of new regionalism is – despite some weaknesses – an adequate response to contemporary development trends and global transformations. It creates a chance to overcome development problems in each region, among others, by using mechanisms and resources of independent, sustainable development and, as a result, reducing inequalities and socio-economic disproportions between regions.

Abstract:

The scientific literature presents various definitions of the concepts of ‘regionalism’, ‘regionalization’ and ‘interregional interaction’. The processes associated with globalization and integration manifest themselves in the form of consolidation of macro-regional ties. The formation of big macroeconomic zones of priority cooperation covers neighbouring and geographically close countries. The consolidation of large economic spaces is accompanied by the creation of regional economic organizations and integration communities aimed at deepening trade, economic cooperation and regional division of labour. In parallel with the formation of large economic and political regional associations at the macro level, globalization has accelerated the process of diversification of territorial administration functions within individual states. The redistribution of power within individual countries is seen as a parallel process of regionalization at the grassroots level. The signs of regionalism at the micro level include the increasing role of subnational territorial communities, the growth of their interest in establishing closer cooperation with the border territories of neighboring countries. In the most general sense, the author considers regionalism as a dynamic feature of international political and economic processes, indicated by the diversification of management functions at different levels of socio-political organization. The methodology of political science distinguishes the manifestations of regionalisms at the macro and micro levels. Various manifestations of regionalism are embodied in the design of large economic spaces, the redistribution of power within individual countries, increasing the level of regional self-government, development of interregional contacts and interregional integration ties between neighbouring and/or geographically close countries. The practice of interregional cooperation is most successfully applied within the framework of multilateral integration associations, primarily in the EU and in the wider European space covered by the scope of European conventions and decisions in the field of spatial cooperation of territorial communities and authorities, including local and regional self-government. Interaction between subnational regions includes the conclusion of agreements between territorial communities of neighbouring countries, the creation of interregional associations and contractual networks of interregional cooperation.

Abstract:

In this essay I discuss the short stories of the Appalachian and West Virginian writer Breece D’J Pancake (1952-1979) in order to reflect on the ways in which the experience of peripherality comes to be registered in literature. Taking the cue from recent articulations of world literature as the literature of the capitalist world system, I argue that Pancake is a peripheral modernist: the formal oscillation between a realism traditionally associated with regionalist writing and “irrealist” elements stands as a mark of his peripherality. Both the class focus of Pancake's stories and their broad environmental theme may be regarded as symptoms of the region’s structural position within the processes of capital accumulation. I maintain that there is a utopian impulse permeating Pancake’s fiction. It can be located in Pancake’s descriptions of the environment and the temporal disjunctions present in his stories. Keywords: Breece D’J Pancake, literary regionalism, capitalism, peripherality, modernism, utopia

Abstract:

Since 1990, the number of preferential trade agreements has increased rapidly. The argument in this article explains this phenomenon, known as the new regionalism, as a result of competition for market access; exporters facing trade diversion because of their exclusion from a preferential trade agreement concluded by foreign countries push their governments into signing an agreement with the country in which their exports are threatened. The argument is tested in a quantitative analysis of the proliferation of preferential trade agreements among 167 countries between 1990 and 2007. The finding that competition for market access is a major driving force of the new regionalism is a contribution to the literature on regionalism and to broader debates about global economic regulation.

The novel highlights the status of the traditional art of music of the South in the Karisal area and the position of the arts in relation to the fertility of the soil. Esra the novel 'Sancharam' was written by S. Ramakrishnan, popularly known as. In this book, the author has recorded that every person in the Karisal region, which is full of problems such as poverty, infertility, caste, religion, domination, politics, rule and power, is full of local characteristics and myths related to that land. The article sets out to tell the story of the Karisal myth told by the narrator through the novel and the biological properties that are realized through it.

Abstract:

International bankruptcy has been grown by international trade. It has been created a wide literature about it. It is one of the essential factors to survive in the international trade space. Setting and enacting laws in this regard remarkably will help solve the legal troubles in the case of international trade. The aim of the present research is to investigate international bankruptcy with an emphasis on trade bill approved in 2013. The results show that new bill has somewhat been able to make general regulations and intended fundamental principles in UNCITRAL Model Law considered. It is done with regard to United Nations Commission on International Trade Law regarding borderless bankruptcy. By investigating different articles of the new bill it can be inferred that the tendency of the legislator is towards a theory of regionalism. Although it is somehow adjusted (regionalism based on interactions). The absolute basis of regionalism has been deduced from that. Therefore it could be said that the legislator has somewhat been lead to the theory of regionalism based on international interactions.

Desde el asunto del lenguaje, pasando por la parodia y el humor, hasta las cuestiones del regionalismo y el cosmopolitismo son tratadas en este artículo. Se sopesan desde la actualidad las visiones que sobre Carrasquilla hicieron Baldomero Sanín Cano, Rafael Maya, Hernando Téllez, Rafael Gutiérrez Girardot y Rafael Humerto Moreno Durán, entre otro. Este itinerario culmina con una lectura de las posiciones que la Revista Mito y los nadaístas asumieron frente a la obra del escritor antioqueño. Descriptores: Crítica literaria colombiana del siglo XX; Regionalismo; Realismo; Lenguaje popular; Humor y parodia: Revista Mito; Dadaísmo; Valoraciones sobre la obra de Carrasquilla. Abstract: This is a survey on the ways 20th century Colombian literary critics have interpreted Tomás Carrasquilla's literary production. The confrontation of the different readings allows to approach the more polemical issues provoked by the author in the core of national literary criticism, such as: language, parody and humor, regionalism and cosmopolitanism. The points of view of Baldomero Sanín Cano, Rafael Maya, Hernando Téllez, Rafael Gutiérrez Girardot and Rafael Humerto Moreno Durán are weighed here from a contemporary perspective. This itinerary closes with a reading of the positions assumed about Carrasquilla's work by the editors of the journal Mito and the Nadaistas.

Abstract:

This essay analyzes genre's impact on racial representation in a body of popular fiction that has shaped European Americans' definition of Asian American identity for more than three-quarters of a century: the Charlie Chan novels of Earl Derr Biggers. To advance his stated goal of overturning Chinese stereotypes, Biggers experimented with genres of locale and criminality. The Hawaiian setting of his first Chan story, The House without a Key, challenged the generic topography of Chinatown regionalism by invoking a counterintuitive regionalist prototype, while the book's plot followed the conventions of classical detective fiction, a highly formulaic subgenre of crime literature that perpetuated racist stereotypes while dominating best-seller lists throughout the 1920s and 1930s. Exploiting a unique feature of the detective formula known as rule subversion, however, Biggers enlisted the genre's very tendencies toward racism to undermine racist stereotypes.

Abstract:

An attempt is presented to reconstruct the historiosophical and literary-critical sources of Grigory Potanin’s article “A novel and a story in Siberia.” This article is key to the literary criticism of the “senior” regionalists. Consideration is given to two phenomena: 1) the Russian literature of the 19th century, regarded as “incorrect” as it was forced to evolve rapidly due to the lagging in its development (the consequence of the forced modernization of Russia), and 2) Western European literature, regarded “normal” and supplying the Russian literature with forms seen as models. These two phenomena were reproduced several decades later on a more local scale though less consistently: 1) Russian literature, having become “normative” for the Russian reader by the 1870s, and 2) the literature of Siberia lagging in its development compared to Russian literature. The leaders of Siberian regionalism would speak about the “specialness” of Siberia when comparing it both with Russia and Europe, with this “specialness” requiring a special representation. Considering criticism as an institution that “supervises” literature, Potanin, as his associate and friend Yadrintsev, suggested a radical thesis about the absence of literature in Siberia in his article. At the same time, relying on Karamzin’s article “Why are there few author talents in Russia?” and the first “Philosophical Letter” by Chaadaev, Potanin joins the discourse of the “shortage” of literature generated by several Russian critics of the first third of the 19th century. Potanin’s thought follows the paradigm formed in literary criticism and historiosophical discourse of this period.

Abstract:

This article analyses the early circulation, reception, and translation history of Ian Maclaren's bestselling Scottish local-colour fiction in the United States, the Netherlands, France, and Switzerland. It sketches a comparative model which illuminates the agents of transnational cultural mediation crucial to the international popularity of local-colour fiction in the late nineteenth century. In the USA, key factors for Maclaren's popularity were the interconnected transatlantic publishing world and audiences already receptive to dialect literature. In Europe, while the bestselling quality of his collections and readers’ previous familiarity with regional fiction played a significant role, additional factors included: in the Netherlands, Maclaren's clerical background and the place of established religion in publishing; in France and Switzerland, periodicals attentive to international trends in fiction and to internal regionalist phenomena, along with the initiative of a translator with a flair for Breton regionalism and well connected to the Swiss and Parisian literary milieux.

Abstract:

Abstract This article explores American novelists’ focus on towns or counties (such as Sweet Water, Eatonville, Winesburg, Yoknapatawpha) whether real or imagined, rather than states, and what that might teach us about the novel’s understanding of political totality and democratic action. Novels about towns or counties have been typically conceptualized with the discourse of regionalism, yet that has not led to a literary critical discussion of the federalist system of individual states joined in and as one nation, and how capitalist and corporate power impacts that totality. Focusing on Willa Cather’s novel A Lost Lady (1923), this article develops the notion of “stateless regionalism.” Cather’s novel portrays a political jurisdiction’s complete subsumption by the railroad corporation. Expanding on the town’s fate, the novel portrays the danger of the corporate form—with its attendant incentives, values, and limitations—as it dominates other social, democratic, and political institutions, including municipal town life and, eventually, characters’ sense of self.Cather thus offers us stateless regionalism: the realistic feeling of a political world that does not really function like a political totality at all.

Abstract:

It is a truth universally acknowledged that literature mirrors society. Among many branches of literature, regional literature is what undoubtedly keeps us bound to our soil i.e. our culture and traditions. Some people think that traditions are all static, stable and unalterable. However, this is not so. Even our traditions also change with the change of time. In fact, tradition is the gift of the historic sense. A writer with this sense of tradition is fully conscious of his own generation, of his place in the present, but he is also acutely conscious of his relationship with the writers of the past. The historical sense involves a perception, not only of the pastness of the past but also of its present. In brief, the sense of tradition implies (a) a recognition of the continuity of literature, (b) a critical judgment as to which writers of the past continue to be significant in the present and (c) a knowledge of these significant writers obtained through painstaking effort. Tradition represents the accumulated wisdom and experience of ages and so its knowledge is essential for really great and noble achievement. Regional literature is perhaps the only branch of literature which, by portraying these changing traditions, keeps us in touch with our ancestors, in touch with the world at present and in touch with the hope to make our world better and better. In fact, Indian literature stands as the mirror of Indian culture, quintessential of its exceedingly rich pre-historical tradition. Regarded as one of the oldest body of the literary works, Indian literature goes back to even those times, when copious written literature was still not in vogue and oral form was very much prevalent. And regional literature in India is an integral and inseparable body of writings, which was the precursor of this enriched past, laced with the potential orators and writers. A strong characteristic of the Indian regional literature is the sublime influence of regional Kathas, fables, stories and myths, which later developed as a distinct genre and were termed as the ‘regional literature. Indian literature, thus, as the cradle of the art of narration, gave birth to an important and independent genre of literature, the regional literature of India. The regional literature of India since the ancient times has traveled an extensive traversed path to gain the chic outline and shape that it possesses in present Indian panorama. The journey of regional literature of India is long, yet rich; it unveils the saga of the changing tradition of India, whilst murmuring evanescently about the exhaustively recognizable past of India.

This essay analyzes how, marginalized by national literatures and threatened by the rise of regional mass media in the 1980s and 1990s, northern Mexican border authors and their texts consistently concerned themselves with the temporalities of representation——particularly in literary narrative. Through their treatment of temporal issues, these writers directed themselves toward a local, transnational reading community and enacted a critical regionalism that articulates local signification within larger processes reshaping the role of literature in contemporary Latin America.

Abstract:

Why Does Regional Literature Need an Imaginarium of Horror? On Gothicizing Lower Silesia The article focuses on the relationship between gothicism and regionalism in the literature of Lower Silesia. The author poses a question about the role of the imaginarium of horror in shaping the psychotopography of the region, in which real, spectral and affective topographies converge. An important context is the peripheralization of the region after the political transformation, which resulted in economic regression of Lower Silesia. Gothic regionalism is therefore interpreted as a reaction to social, economic and political processes taking place on a local and global scale, but perceived from a peripheral point of view. As a descriptive term, however, it allows to recognize several aspects: the key role of center-periphery relations, local-global interactions, the influence of late capitalism, the return of repressed events as the uncanny, the horror of everyday life and the exclusion of what exceeds the internal normativity of regional communities. Works of selected authors were analysed, e.g. Joanna Bator, Olga Tokarczuk, Henryk Waniek, Jakub Bielawski, Maciej Bobula.

Abstract:

The article presents an analysis of the recent dismantling of the Union of South-American Nations (UNASUR) under the governments of the liberal-conservative turn recently experienced in South America. Through the mobilization of excerpts from speeches by Heads of State in the region, it is possible to note that the allegedly “ideological” character of UNASUR is presented as the main justification for leaving the institution. Having that in mind, the main objective of the article is to interrogate narratives about the ‘ideological’ character of UNASUL. For that, the article presents a literature review on regionalism, pragmatism and ideology to challenge this narrative. It is argued, first, that pragmatism and ideology in regionalism are not dichotomous, but complementary concepts. Moreover, despite UNASUR’s ideological elements, the organization represents a series of alignments and pragmatic factors in its institutionalization and performance. Finally, it is argued that the proposals for “de-ideologization” and “pragmatic realignment” of the regionalism of the new rights in South America are, in fact, more ideological than pragmatic as they claim.

In recent years increased attention has been paid to the role of culture and creativity as significant factors influencing economic development. Another crucial phenomenon shaping the economy is the great importance of regionalism. Culture, creativity and regionalism seem to facilitate coping with the troubles of our times in a better way. This paper aims to contribute to a better understanding of the ways culture and creativity influence the building of a regional innovation system. A review of crucial literature considering the regional innovation system and the role of culture and creativity in the economic development is provided. The conclusion from qualitative research suggests that the significance of creativity in the Nuremberg Metropolitan Region is widely acknowledged and is an attempt to exploit this finding.(original abstract)

Regional Literature and Literary Studies: Towards Polylogue, Openness and Commitment The paper discusses the phenomenon of “decentralization” of literature and literary culture in Poland after 1989. The author focuses his attention on regional cultural magazines, literature in selected regions as well as on regionalism in literary studies. He analyzes their relationship with the activation and empowerment of local intellectual and literary communities, the transformation of their social identity and the revision of history and collective memory. Literature and literary studies of the regions, according to the author, contributed to the transformation of Polish culture, creating in it a space for the voice of minorities, migrants, expellees and inhabitants of the borderlands.

Abstract:

This article aims to analyse the legal status of regional cooperation among the South Pacific countries and territories, as not every entity in the Pacific Basin possesses International law features of a state. Regionalisation, as well as regionalism, as illustrated by the example of the South Pacific region, is a new topic to examine, especially in the Polish and European literature. Therefore, this topic does need further and deeper analysis. First of all, both regionalism and regionalisation are international phenomena that were set against the process of globalisation only in the last two decades of the 20th century. Secondly, the Pacific Ocean became more dominant in geopolitics than the Atlantic Community at the beginning of 21st century. There are many publications regarding local cooperation mechanisms worldwide. Most of them, though, concern political and/or economic integration, and neglect the legal aspects of regional integration. The outcome of this article is nonetheless to present the contemporary legal statusof the South Pacific cooperation, though it is at the stage of regionalisation, while not yet regionalism – fully formalised and structuralised just as it is on the other continents.

Abstract:

One of the most striking developments in the world trading system since the mid 1990s has been the surge in Regional Trade Agreements (RTAs). From about 50 till 1990, the number of RTAs has crossed 250 in 2003. As trading within RTAs does not come under the purview of World Trade Organization (WTO), this explosive growth of regionalism is threatening to emerge as an alternative to the WTO led international trading system. This has initiated an intense debate among economists whether RTAs are “building blocks” or “stumbling blocks” of the multilateral trading system. In this backdrop, this paper traces the reasons behind this resurgent regionalism and surveys the literature on RTAs and its interaction with the multilateral trading system. This paper attempts to look at these issues from the perspective of a developing country.

Full text

Abstract:

This essay argues that the short-lived West Indies Federation (1958–62) was not only undermined by the failure of the regional intelligentsia to comprehensively communicate a narrative of regionalism to the majority of the archipelago’s peoples but also further compromised by the BBC Caribbean Voices literary radio program broadcast to the region between 1943 and 1958. During this fifteen-year period leading up to federation, Caribbean Voices broadcast West Indian literature, as well as critical commentary by the program’s longest serving editor, Henry Swanzy, that generally emphasized territorial rather than regional nationalism. Consequently, the program’s content had the inadvertent effect of undermining the narrative of regionalism, at the popular level, that BBC officialdom and the region’s intelligentsia seemed to have taken for granted. The essay therefore concludes that the narrative failure of federation was prefigured in the widely and more persuasively articulated story of territorial nationalism that was presented in much of the literature and editorial commentary broadcast to the region via Caribbean Voices in the decade and a half leading up to federation.

Abstract:

Abstract The lexeme travail(lier), well-known in Medieval French, pertains in limited use to the notion of travel, in the specific sense of ʻ(to) travelʼ. Our work shows that this precise meaning could be identified as a regionalism that first appeared in Anglo-Norman during the second half of the 12th century, quickly spreading on the continent to the other regional areas of the Oïl territory. Adopted in Middle English by the end of the 13th century, it survives in Modern English as travel and its derivatives. The present paper recounts the journey of this semantic regionalism during the past centuries, establishes a syntactic-semantic synthesis of its different uses and formulates a hypothesis on the modalities of its origin.
