ISBN 978-90-807611-5-5 Romania and the European Union Changes and Challenges Country Report Series II (CORE-series) European Policy Studies Universiteit van Amsterdam Supervisor: dr. A.C. van Wageningen July 2009 Acknowledgement We, fifteen students enrolled in the Master programme European Policy of the University of Amsterdam, examined the changes Romania has gone through and the challenges it continues to face in Romania’s accession and integration into the European Union. We would like to thank all persons, organisations, companies and public administrative bodies that have assisted through cooperating and sharing their knowledge (see appendix 3). Without their support this research project would not have been possible. Our special thanks go out to Gabriël Badescu, Toma Burean, Florin Fesnic, Carmen Greab, Irina Kantor and the students of the Faculty of Political Science and Public Administration of the University Babes-Bolyai of Cluj-Napoca who contributed to our project. Furthermore, we would like to thank Mioara Pitut of the Romanian Embassy in the Netherlands and Dorin Perie of the University of Amsterdam. We would also like to thank our course supervisor Anne van Wageningen for his support and for giving us the opportunity to carry out this research project. This report is a collective effort for which we all take responsibility. It should be emphasised that this report must be seen as a study project as it is part of the Master programme European Policy. Preface I am proud to present the second of a series of country reports, in short the CORE series, of the master European Policy Studies. This report is about Romania. In 1989 Romania has changed dictatorial rule to democratic rule. Since 1989, Romania has also been engaged in a transition from a state led economy to a market economy. In 2007 Romania joined the European Union as a member state. It is safe to say that Romania has made some enormous changes in a period of no more than 20 years. Under my supervision and as a part of their master European Policy Studies, 15 students of the Universiteit of Amsterdam have organised a field research trip to Romania to investigate the aforementioned transitions and to address the question of the Romanian integration in the European Union. They had a political, legal and economical focus underpinned by a cultural and historical background. Their research has been interdisciplinary and this report shows just that. They combined desk research with interviews in Cluj-Napoca, Jucu-de-Sus and Bucarest. In only 14 weeks they have obtained insight in the internal affairs of Romania, its relationship with the European Union and some important problems still waiting to be solved. Romania has changed enormously. The cover photos resume these changes well. Still, some serious endeavours lie ahead for the Romanian people. Corruption, the modernisation of the infrastructure, the quality and content of education, the improvement of the judicial procedures and the development of a competitive agriculture are some of the Herculean tasks ahead for Romania. A mentality change is another. Romanian society at large could benefit from a more proactive attitude. Nevertheless, after obtaining the membership of the European Union, the same Union and the other Member States were quick to withdraw their administrative support, leaving Romania on its own to comply with the acquis communautaire. Member States keep underestimating the impact of forty years of entirely different histories. The wealth of this report not only stems from the information that the students gathered and analysed, it also is the result of the chosen interdisciplinary approach. This enabled the students to draw conclusions surpassing a single disciplinary approach. They thus proved that some inferences about our complex social reality can only be made after interdisciplinary research. Therefore once again, the second CORE-study clearly demonstrates the necessity of and need for interdisciplinary studies like European studies, particularly European Policy Studies. I took pleasure in coaching and accompanying these students. They were very much involved in making a success of this course. For them, the course itself was an adventure, as no preset course material was available. They had to find their own information and make a comprehensive selection. They were not discouraged by last minute changes in organising their interviews. During their collaboration they showed a genuine team spirit. This report proves for it. Finally, I want to thank Dr. Dorin Perie, colleague and also expert on Romania, for his contribution to the field trip. His historical explanations were of great help to the students to understand some complex issues of Romanian society. Of course I want to thank the fifteen participating students for their enthusiasm and their infinite dedication, which by far exceeded the demands of a compulsory assignment.

  • The National Structure of the Romanian Population at the 20Th of October 2011 Census
    STUDIA UBB GEOGRAPHIA, LIX, 1, 2014, pp. 5-26 (RECOMMENDED CITATION) THE NATIONAL STRUCTURE OF THE ROMANIAN POPULATION AT THE 20TH OF OCTOBER 2011 CENSUS GR. P. POP1, R. RUSU1 ABSTRACT. – The National Structure of the Romanian Population at the 20th of October 2011 Census. This is the third study regarding the national structure of the population of Romania. The first two approached the 1992 and 2002 censuses and were published in Studia UBB, Geographia, 2 (1991) and the Romanian Review of Political Geography (2004)2. On the census day, Romania had 20,121,641 inhabitants, of which 83.45% (16,792,868) are Romanians, while the other 16.55% belong to: Hungarians 6.10% (1,227,623 inhabitants), Gypsies 3.09% (621,573 people), other 18 national minorities (Ukrainians, Germans, Turks, Russian-Lipovans, Tartars, Serbs, Slovaks, Bulgarians, Croats, Greek, Italians, Jews, Czechs, Poles, Chinese, Armenians, Csangos, Macedonians) and the category “other national groups” have together only 1.21% (242,767 inhabitants). There is also a category of people for which the information was ”unavailable”, totaling 6.15% (1,236,810 people) of the Romanian population (fig. 1). As requested to assess the essential issues of such a subject, one needs to analyze the distribution of the national minorities across Romania, at the level of the counties and the eight geographical-historical provinces of Romania: Transylvania, Moldavia, Dobrudja, Muntenia, Oltenia, Banat, Crişana and Maramureş. Generally, regarding the presence of the Romanian population, one notices the following situation at the level of the counties: in 18 counties of the total of 41 in Romania, the weight of the Romanian population is over 90%, including all the eight Moldavian counties (Bacău, Botoşani, Galaţi, Iaşi, Neamţ, Suceava, Vaslui, Vrancea), six out of the ten counties of Muntenia (Argeş, Brăila, Buzău, Dâmboviţa, Prahova, Teleorman) and four out of five counties of Oltenia (Dolj, Gorj, Olt, Vâlcea).

This is possible and easier thanks to the creation of new innovations about means of communication and means of transport. These factors (so the desire to be more united and the consequent creation of new innovations) have created a new era known as the “era of the globalization”. There are two consequences of the phenomenon of the globalization which are extremely important in my work: the international migration and the evolution of the means of communication.

  • Nicknames of Romanian Politicians After 1989
    Nicknames of Romanian Politicians after 1989 Daiana FELECAN, Oliviu FELECAN Key-words: nicknames, political discourse, pragmalinguistics, semantics, sociolinguistics 1. Preliminaries 1.1. Politicians’ nicknames – strategies of argumentum ad hominem1 The present-day world of Romanian politics takes the shape of a theatre of operations from a warring area, a Gaza Strip whose property deed is continually claimed by parties found at either ends of the political spectrum. These parties insult one another publicly, suspect and tell on one another to the National Anticorruption Directorate. They even listen in on their private conversations and discredit each other by means of compromising films. All the aforementioned events, alongside many others, unfold before the alert yet blind eyes and under the allegedly fair consideration of a system of justice that is overwhelmed by the multitude of penal cases pending before courts of law, with ever-postponed trial dates. Nicknames have become means of attack, picked by belligerent interlocutors from the arsenal at hand. They are prolonged-release antidotes used to destroy opponents and their effect is visible in the long run, as nicknames become part of users’ collective memory. When this happens, speakers associate a nicknamed individual with the verbal tag considered emblematic of the nickname bearer. Contemporary Romanian society appears to be increasingly oblivious of the principles that underlie its foundation (politeness, promoting respect in interpersonal relationships and acknowledging the distribution of social roles). As a result, the psychological and linguistic profile of Romanian society was altered along with the institution of democracy after 1989. The consequences of hastily adopting a recently imported configuration, unspecific to a community that is respectful of traditional values yet anxious to follow the pace of globalisation and Americanisation at once and at any cost, are also salient in one of the most prolific language compartments, i.e.
