With a surface-area of 238,391 km2 and a population of 21,584,365 (July 1, 2007), Romania is one of the relatively large states in Central Europe, coming third after Germany; as regards its neighbours, it ranks second after Ukraine. The country lies in-between two conflict foci, the former Yugoslav space and the former Soviet Union, were the Transnistrian conflict has a direct bearing on the Romanian population of the Republic of Moldova.

<p> Between 1937 and 1943 the Romanian blouse plays a more pivotal role than previously acknowledged in Matisse's development of a pictorial sign language.

By tracking the Romanian blouse, this thesis offers a counter-narrative to the standard monographic study or formal reading of Matisse&rsquo;s work.

Abstract:
After the collapse of communism in Romania, in December 1989, nationalism played an important role in the development of political life. This thesis proposes an explanation for why this has been the case. I identify the Greater Romania Party as the most representative nationalist political formation in post-communist Romania and examine it as my case-study. My analysis distinguishes the core aspects of the PRM's ideology and studies how its discourse is constructed. In doing so, I argue that the success of the party could only be explained by the fact that it employs a nationalist discourse th

Abstract:
The fall of Ceausescu in 1989 drew attention from the Western media to the plight of children raised in Romanian `orphanages'. Over a decade later, Romania is still fighting the `institutionalised children crisis', despite receiving Western help to improve its childcare system, and having repeatedly undertaken failed reforms. Since its application for EU membership in 1995, Romania has been asked to address this problem as a matter of priority, owing to concerns about the negative impact of institutional rearing upon child development.

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 l

This thesis has a twofold aim. It first argues that monetary policy is inherently political because it involves struggles over meaning. It modifies Niebyl’s (1946) conceptual approach with an explicit attention to meaning, advancing a theory/ policy discourse/institutional practices nexus for exploring central banking. It shows that the emergence of leading representations of monetary processes (in Ricardo, Keynes and Friedman) involved discursive struggles during periods of crisis to assign meaning to problems and establish dominant interpretations.

This thesis discusses the Romanian Revolution of 1989 through the critiques of its authenticity that have emerged in the field of critical theory over the past twenty-five years. It applies a different theoretical model for interpretation, that of performative contradiction, and reconsiders accusations of inauthenticity through this lens. By introducing this new model, the objective is to liberate this specific political event, and also political events at large, from the burden of authenticity, which amounts to an expectation of adherence to a specific form of identity politics.
