  • D E C L a R a T I O N We Are Bulgarian Citizens of Roma Origin
    D E C L A R A T I O N We are Bulgarian citizens of Roma origin with a constructively critical and active civil position. We try to contribute to the development of Bulgaria in different areas according to our own strength and abilities. We are sensitive to the topics concerning the human and citizen’s rights and responsibilities, the solidarity in modern societies, the debate on equal opportunities for development and growth of everyone. With the present declaration we strongly condemn all attempts to impose a public discourse in which we, the Roma people are represented entirely as a group of unsocialized, antisocial and even inhumane creatures! We express our profound outrage at the systematic efforts of some politicians, crumbling the democratic process in the country trying to oppose the Roma community to the other social groups, thus endangering the interethnic relations and peace in the country! We are particularly shocked by the pathetic attempt to oppose the situation of Roma to that of Syrian refugees. Statements as "Syrian refugees are putting their hands in the pot of Roma!" are intolerable violation of our dignity. We strongly and firmly declare that we do not share and do not endorse such kinds of statements! Let us make it clear to everyone: We are not against Syrian refugees! On the contrary, we show solidarity with them and believe that they deserve protection because people do not become refugees in their own wish and will! As part of the family of the democratic countries and societies with developed human values, Bulgaria and all of us need to provide the necessary support to the people of Syria, who have sought refuge in our country to deal with this tragic stage of their life.

The first known civilization in the region was that of the Thracians, whose culture reached a peak in the sixth century B.C. Because of disunity, in the ensuing centuries Thracian territory was occupied successively by the Greeks, Persians, Macedonians, and Romans. A Thracian kingdom still existed under the Roman Empire until the first century A.D., when Thrace was incorporated into the empire, and Serditsa was established as a trading center on the site of the modern Bulgarian capital, Sofia.

One of winning team element which have little attention from scholars is bureaucrat. Although, normatively, bureaucrats are required to neutral in all type of general election, but in fact bureaucrats is very involved deeply in general elections. Based on empirical research in Sintang District and Ketapang District, West Kalimantan, Indonesia, we found that bureaucrats have a significant role as a winning team in pilkada (direct election for local leader). Patronage is a keyword to explain political relation between bureaucrats and candidate in pilkada. This situation was triggered by the fact that there are many candidates who have social background as civil servant and, consequently, have direct access to bureaucracy. Bureaucrats have high motivation to participate in pilkada as a broker due to protecting their vested interest. In our cases, the vested interest of bureaucrat is career stability which is promising additional personal revenue and social status.

  • The Formulaic Dynamics of Character Behavior in Lucan Howard Chen
    Breakthrough and Concealment: The Formulaic Dynamics of Character Behavior in Lucan Howard Chen Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2012 © 2012 Howard Chen All rights reserved ABSTRACT Breakthrough and Concealment: The Formulaic Dynamics of Character Behavior in Lucan Howard Chen This dissertation analyzes the three main protagonists of Lucan’s Bellum Civile through their attempts to utilize, resist, or match a pattern of action which I call the “formula.” Most evident in Caesar, the formula is a cycle of alternating states of energy that allows him to gain a decisive edge over his opponents by granting him the ability of perpetual regeneration. However, a similar dynamic is also found in rivers, which thus prove to be formidable adversaries of Caesar in their own right. Although neither Pompey nor Cato is able to draw on the Caesarian formula successfully, Lucan eventually associates them with the river-derived variant, thus granting them a measure of resistance (if only in the non-physical realm). By tracing the development of the formula throughout the epic, the dissertation provides a deeper understanding of the importance of natural forces in Lucan’s poem as well as the presence of an underlying drive that unites its fractured world.
