Arumanian Has Had an Admirative! Victor A. Friedman University of Chicago* Indiana Slavic Studies, Vol
1 Surprise! Surprise! Arumanian Has Had an Admirative! Victor A. Friedman University of Chicago* Indiana Slavic Studies, Vol. 7, 1994. 79-89. The development of marked status categories -- i.e. verb forms and usages specifying the speaker's level of commitment to the truth of the utterance and referred to by terms such as evidentia reported, dubitative, admirative, witnessed, etc. -- has never figured in the catalogue of ˆclassi Balkanisms. This can be attributed largely to their apparent absence from Greek (but cf. Besevlie 1928) and Balkan Romance,1 coupled with their elusive nature; unlike obvious phenomena such a definite articles, modal subordinators, future auxiliaries and numeral formation, status categories ar difficult to define -- as seen in the voluminous literature that has evolved around them -- and sometimes even to identify -- as seen in the fact that they are not mentioned in the earliest grammars o the languages in which they are attested (cf. Pa˘rvev 1975, Ismajli 1982, Kastrati 1980). Moreover due to their expressive semantic nature, marked nonconfirmative status categories and usages ar absent or rare in textual sources, especially ordinary narrative prose. In their studies of Balka linguistics, Sandfeld (1930:119-120), Feuillet (1986:67), and Schaller (1975:79, 94) all treat the Albanian and Balkan Slavic phenomena as a bilateral correspondence at best.2 To this can be adde the fact that in the decades since Sandfeld's epochal study, the various Balkan languages hav achieved significant degrees of standardization, with the result that the surveys conducted in recen decades rely mainly on literary sources rather than the dialectal material that was the basis of earli works.3 Thus, for example, recent investigations generally take standard Romanian as representativ of Balkan Romance as a whole. -

Decentralization and Inter-Ethnic Cooperation
DECENTRALIZATION AND INTER-ETHNIC COOPERATION: COMPARING MULTIETHNIC MUNICIPALITIES IN MACEDONIA By Olimpija Hristova Submitted to Central European University Department of Political Science In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Supervisor: Carsten Q. Schneider CEU eTD Collection Budapest, Hungary 2013 Abstract After a small-scale ethnic conflict between the Macedonians and Albanians in 2001, Macedonia adapted power-sharing at the central level of government combined with decentralization in the form of enhanced local self-governance. With its mosaic multiethnic structure, Macedonia belongs to the group of ethnically, culturally and religiously divided societies where decentralized institutions were designed to accommodate increased demands for minority rights and to encourage different ethnic communities to cooperate. Yet whether decentralization serves its goal cannot be observed from the aggregate country level (Varshney 2002, Mehler and Tull 2011). Since decentralization exhibits its impacts at the subnational level, it is crucial to assess whether there is a variety of inter-ethnic cooperation across subnational units. Hence, the research question of this thesis is: What types of inter- ethnic cooperation are there across multiethnic municipalities in Macedonia seven years after the decentralization reforms? To address the research question, I engage in a systematic comparative analysis of nine multiethnic municipalities in Macedonia. The data gathering besides investigation of primary and secondary sources includes exploratory fieldwork through focus group interviews. Employing thematic and fuzzy set ideal type analysis, I derive four types of inter-ethnic cooperation among municipal councilors: dynamic, predominantly informal, pragmatic and minimal cooperation. Out of this analysis I derive hypotheses of the diverse impacts CEU eTD Collection decentralization has across subnational units within the same country. -

Macedonia 2013 International Religious Freedom Report
MACEDONIA 2013 INTERNATIONAL RELIGIOUS FREEDOM REPORT Executive Summary The constitution and other laws and policies protect religious freedom and, in practice, the government generally respected religious freedom. Almost all religious groups asserted that the government favored the Macedonian Orthodox Church-Ohrid Archbishopric (MOC-OA). Some groups stated that the government inconsistently implemented regulations for the registration of religious groups and the ownership and use of property by religious groups, favoring some, including the MOC-OA, over others. The head of the self-declared Orthodox Archbishopric of Ohrid, which has links to the Serbian Orthodox Church and does not recognize the MOC-OA, remains in prison for embezzlement and was convicted on separate charges of money laundering. Restitution of expropriated properties from the Yugoslav era continued to proceed slowly. There were reports of societal abuse or discrimination based on religious affiliation, belief, or practice. At times, ethnic tensions negatively affected religious freedom. The Bektashi community reported harassment and occasional threats from individuals with differing interpretations of Islam. The politicization of religious issues appears to be growing and has had a negative effect on religious tolerance. The Ambassador and other U.S. embassy officers met regularly with religious groups and government officials to discuss issues such as property restitution, interfaith tolerance, and the separation of church and state. Section I. Religious Demography The U.S. government estimates the total population at 2.1 million (July 2013 estimate). The last national census in 2002 estimated that 65 percent of the population was of the Orthodox Christian faith writ large and 33 percent of the Muslim faith.
