  • Gammalsvenskby the True Story of the Swedish Settlement in the Ukraine
    Gammalsvenskby The true story of the Swedish settlement in the Ukraine Author: Jörgen Hedman © Copyright The people of Gammalsvenskby in the Ukraine, a summary In the year 1781 one thousand Swedish peasants from Dagö in Estonia were transported to southern Ukraine, where Catherine II (the Great), Empress of Russia, gave them new land. After an eight-month journey through Russia, during which half of them lost their lives the Swedes reached their destination. Instead of the houses and the cultivated land they had been promised an empty plain met them. Suffering extreme hardships and often tormented by bandit raids, famine and diseases, they built a settlement that was called Gammalsvenskby. It is not difficult to be fascinated by Gammalsvenskby and the destiny of its inhabitants. Here we meet Swedes who could witness history change the world, Swedes who, although being tormented by famine and diseases, worked hard and broke new soil in a cosmopolitan and unstable corner of Europe. This part of the world was the scene of events of international and domestic significance: the Crimean War 1853-56, World War 1, the October-revolution, bandit-raids during the said revolution, the Civil war between the White and the Red armies. This was followed by the Collectivization of the farmers, Stalin’s terror during the thirties, the Second World War and the German occupation in 1941-44, which for the people of Gammalsvenskby ended with a transportation to camps in Germany. Later in 1945 this led to the deportation to labor camps in Siberia. Treachery and exploitation runs all through their history: 17th- and 18th- century Swedish landlords on Dagö, who infringed their rights, betrayed them.

  • Twenty Years After the Iron Curtain: the Czech Republic in Transition Zdeněk Janík March 25, 2010
    Twenty Years after the Iron Curtain: The Czech Republic in Transition Zdeněk Janík March 25, 2010 Assistant Professor at Masaryk University in the Czech Republic n November of last year, the Czech Republic commemorated the fall of the communist regime in I Czechoslovakia, which occurred twenty years prior.1 The twentieth anniversary invites thoughts, many times troubling, on how far the Czechs have advanced on their path from a totalitarian regime to a pluralistic democracy. This lecture summarizes and evaluates the process of democratization of the Czech Republic’s political institutions, its transition from a centrally planned economy to a free market economy, and the transformation of its civil society. Although the political and economic transitions have been largely accomplished, democratization of Czech civil society is a road yet to be successfully traveled. This lecture primarily focuses on why this transformation from a closed to a truly open and autonomous civil society unburdened with the communist past has failed, been incomplete, or faced numerous roadblocks. HISTORY The Czech Republic was formerly the Czechoslovak Republic. It was established in 1918 thanks to U.S. President Woodrow Wilson and his strong advocacy for the self-determination of new nations coming out of the Austro-Hungarian Empire after the World War I. Although Czechoslovakia was based on the concept of Czech nationhood, the new nation-state of fifteen-million people was actually multi- ethnic, consisting of people from the Czech lands (Bohemia, Moravia, and Silesia), Slovakia, Subcarpathian Ruthenia (today’s Ukraine), and approximately three million ethnic Germans. Since especially the Sudeten Germans did not join Czechoslovakia by means of self-determination, the nation- state endorsed the policy of cultural pluralism, granting recognition to the various ethnicities present on its soil.

  • 'Russia Is a Threat': Estonia Frets About Its Neighbor
    Opinions ‘Russia is a threat’: Estonia frets about its neighbor In an interview, President Kersti Kaljulaid says Trump must stand up to Moscow. By Lally Weymouth March 24 Lally Weymouth is a senior associate editor at The Washington Post. TALLINN, ESTONIA Estonian President Kersti Kaljulaid is treading carefully. Sitting in her office this past week, she said she believes Vice President Pence’s assurances that, despite President Trump’s skepticism, the United States is committed to NATO. A NATO battalion just arrived to make this small and vulnerable Baltic nation feel safer from Russia, a powerful neighbor historically ambivalent about its independence. Kaljulaid, chosen last year as a compromise candidate, spoke to The Washington Post’s Lally Weymouth about Vladimir Putin, NATO and a childhood spent under Soviet occupation. Edited excerpts follow. Q. Is Russia a threat? Are you worried? A. Yes, I am worried. Russia is a threat. Not a physical threat to any NATO country but [a threat] to the international security architecture. In 2008, they moved on Georgia. Q. When Russia occupied Abkhazia and South Ossetia? A. That was the first sign. It blew over very quickly — European countries went back to business and life continued. This, of course, taught President Putin a lesson: He could push a little more. Q. He got the message he could do whatever he wants? A. If he does it bit by bit, yes. When he went into Crimea, it stopped for a while because the European countries and America this time recognized that they needed to draw a red line.

  • Reforms in the Hospital Healthcare System in Macedonia, Estonia and Hungary
    Reforms in the Hospital Healthcare System in Macedonia, Estonia and Hungary An overview of the implemented reforms, the reactions from stakeholders and evaluation of policies Introduction The aim of this study is to explore healthcare reforms of the public health system in Estonia, Hungary and Macedonia in terms of changes in the level of corporatization, autonomization and decentralization of the health care sector – commonly denominated as New Public Management (NPM), within the period of most recent and intensive reforms for each respective country. The study at hand consists of three individual country reports which reflect and assess the reforms which were implemented within their respective national contexts. Each of the reports, firstly provides an overview of the reforms implemented, while also assessing how these reforms fit within the NPM paradigm. Subsequently, each country report explores the effects of the reforms on health care employees and whether the changes had triggered some kind of collective responses by labor unions and the general public. Each country report concludes by highlighting the potential impact of employees and the public’s reaction in shaping the course of healthcare sector reforms and in the quality of health services in general. Finally, this study concludes with a comparative overview of the general trends in healthcare reforms in all three countries as representative of post-socialist transitioning states. Methodology Reforms in health care sectors were traced by sector-specific government programs and changes in the related legislation. Reaction of employees and the public were mapped through daily news and other media sources, surveys and opinion polls, as well as written declarations and petitions of labor unions and other related employee associations and patients’ representatives.
