One of the main foreign Napoca, Romania policy issues, with important consequences and the territorial integrity of the Romanian Principalities and then was the status of the Danube. In the present paper I analyzed the Romanian foreign policy between 1878 and 1914. Keywords: Romanian Foreign Policy, International Relations, Security, Foreign Policy Introduction The first time the issue is considered Danube is the Treaty of Bucharest between Russia and Turkey, signed on May 28, 1812, which ended the Russo-Turkish war took place between 1806 and 1812. The Clashes of interest between the major European powers were put on the agenda the need to solve the problem of freedom of navigation on international rivers and its consecration in an international act. Used the occasion to ensuring this was the Peace Congress in Vienna, met after the first abdication of Napoleon. The Final Act 1815 states in Articles 108-118, fundamental principles of river. Under Article 109, navigation on international rivers was free for all states without distinction between riparian and non-riparian states; is accurate but that freedom of navigation applies only to commercial navigation, not for the war.

SOLLEWIJN GELPKE The Report of Miguel Roxo de Brito of his Voyage in 1581-1582 to the Raja Ampat, the MacCluer Gulf and Seram Introduction For nearly four centuries, scholars of north-western New Guinea have been intrigued by a cryptic abstract of the Relagión que Migel Rojo de Brito da de la Nueua Guinea, written shortly before 1600 by Hemando de los Rios (Zaragoza 1876-1880, 1:187, 11:294-6). The full Spanish text of Brito's Relagión was eventually discovered on folios 139-149 of a Sino-Spanish codex of 1590 or shortly afterwards (Boxer 1950), and was published in 1979 (Boxer and Manguin 1979). In the Netherlands and in West Irian itself, several students of the area where Brito travelled expressed regret at the inaccessibility of the Spanish text. They intimated they would welcome a translation. Between 1945 and 1960,1 had occasion to visit all the places and islands in West Irian where Brito went, and to gain some knowledge of the people and languages of the Raja Ampat Islands. Armed with this knowledge, I have attempted to edit and translate Brito's report. Before going into this further, however, I wish to express my thanks to Professor C.R.

About 5500 B.C. the region was inhabited by Indo-European people, who in turn gave way to Thracian tribes. Today’s Romanians are in part descended from the Getae, a Thracian tribe that lived north of the Danube River. During the Bronze Age (about 2200 to 1200 B.C.), these Thraco-Getian tribes engaged in agriculture, stock raising, and trade with inhabitants of the Aegean Sea coast.

  • One Ukraine Or Many? Regionalism in Ukraine and Its Political Consequences
    Nationalities Papers, Vol. 32, No. 1, March 2004 One Ukraine or Many? Regionalism in Ukraine and Its Political Consequences Lowell W. Barrington & Erik S. Herron Intra-state regional differences are a central topic in the study of European and Eurasian politics. In Ukraine, regional differences have proven to be powerful predictors of mass attitudes and political behavior. But what does the “regional factor” in Ukrainian politics represent? Is it simply the result of compositional effects, or are the regional differences more than just a sum of other demographic factors correlated with geographic divisions? When analyzing regional divisions as an explanatory variable, what are the implications of employing different regional frameworks? In this article, we demonstrate how geographic divisions in the country hold up even when others factors—such as ethnicity and language use—are con- trolled for. As part of this inquiry, we compare the results of three competing regional frameworks for Ukraine: one with two regions, one with four regions and one with eight regions. While the eight-region framework is uncommon in studies of Ukraine, the decision to examine eight regions is supported by historical, economic and demographic arguments, as well as by the results of the statistical analyses presented in this article. Scholars who have focused on fewer regions in Ukraine may have underestimated the effects of regional differences and missed interesting stories about intra-state variation in Ukrainian attitudes and voting behavior. The results of this study carry important implications not only for the study of Ukraine but also for those interested in intra-state regional divisions across Europe and Eurasia.

  • THE LICRA V. Yahoo! CASE and the REGULATION of ONLINE CONTENT in the WORLD MARKET
    A RETURN TO LILIPUT: THE LICRA v. YAHoo! CASE AND THE REGULATION OF ONLINE CONTENT IN THE WORLD MARKET By Marc H. Greenberj ABSTRACT Over the past three years, a see saw battle has raged in Paris, France and in the heart of Silicon Valley in Santa Clara County, California, over the regulation of content on the Internet. The arena for this battle is the case of LICRA v. Yahoo!, which pits two non-profit human rights groups in France against giant Internet search engine and information portal Yahoo!, Inc. ("Yahoo"). The issues are (1) whether Yahoo may be prosecuted in France under French law for maintaining both auction sites that sell Nazi-related items and information sites promoting Nazi doctrine and (2) whether U.S. courts should enforce the resulting judgment. The first section of this Article presents the laws governing Internet content providers and the jurisdictional regime that gave rise to this see saw battle. The second section examines a series of court proceedings. The first two proceedings in France in 2000 resulted in a French court order directing Yahoo to add geo-location filtering software to its servers in Santa Clara. The subsequent California district court litigation filed in 2001 resulted in summary judgment for Yahoo. This judgment is on appeal. The third and final section explores the global implications of the French and U.S. proceedings. The section concludes that the international community should restructure certain principles governing international jurisdiction in Internet cases and adopt shared guidelines on online content available to the world market. These changes would promote the principle of international comity while allowing the Internet to retain most of its unique, borderless nature.

  • Soviet Political Parties and Leadership
    ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation: EMANCIPATION FROM DOUBLETHINK? POST- SOVIET POLITICAL PARTIES AND LEADERSHIP Peter Voitsekhovsky, Doctor of Philosophy, 2013 Dissertation directed by: Professor Vladimir Tismaneanu Department of Government and Politics This study examines the phenomenon of doublethink as a core feature of the “mental software” that continues to define the character of post-Soviet societies. It is revealed in patterns of prevarication and equivocation that characterize the thinking and behavior of both the elites and the masses. Doublethink is also manifested in incongruous values and duplicitous rules that prevail in society. It accounts for the perpetuation of simulative and fake institutions of “façade democracy.” Political parties in post-Soviet Ukraine are analyzed as a major example of simulative and imitative institutions. Here, traditional ideology-based party taxonomies prove misleading. Political parties are quasi-virtual entities with the character of “post- Orwellian political machines”: they operate in a topsy-turvy world of imitated supply and deluded demand. The study employs three levels of analysis: macro (surveys data and “Tocquevillean” observations); meso (biographical data and political discourse analysis); and micro (in-depth interviews).
