General Information MISSION STATEMENT International Youth Nuclear Congress 2000 'Youth, Future, Nuclear' (IYNC 2000), organized for the first time by a new generation of professionals in the nuclear field from different countries, was held in Bratislava Slovakia on April 9-14, 2000 to: - develop new approaches to communicate benefits of nuclear power, as part of a balanced energy mix; - promote further use of nuclear science and technology for the welfare of mankind; - transfer knowledge from the current generation of leading scientists to the next generation; - encourage the creation of a global network among young professionals. IYNC 2000 International Youth Executive Committee General Chair Alexandre Tsyboulia, IPPE Obninsk, Russia Organizing Chair Stanislav Rapavy, VUJE Trnava, Slovakia Technical Program Chair Florence Avezou, COGEMA, France Public Relations Chair Emmy Roos, Rocky Mountain Remediation Services, USA Publications & Web Chair Shannon Bragg-Sitton, University of Michigan, USA Technical Tours & Special Events Chair Robert Holy, Mochovce NPP, Slovakia International Chair Serguei Klykov, INPE Obninsk, Russia Reservations Chair Marian Kristof, Nuclear Regulatory Authority, Slovakia Registration Chair Kristina Kristofova, Decom, Slovakia Finance Chair Vladimir Michal, VUJE Trnava, Slovakia Corporate Relations Chair August Pipkin-Fern, Utility.com, USA Web-Master Sergei Tsyganov, Kurchatov Institute, Russia History Nuclear science and technology is not as popular as it was a few decades ago. There is the threat of its loss caused by the lack of new specialists entering the nuclear field.But the future of power engineering and other important areas of human activities belong to the nucleus. This fact is clearly realized by the young nuclear professionals who initiated the idea of holding the International Youth Nuclear Congress (IYNC) in 1997.At that time, a group of young specialists had come to the conclusion that their activities would be more efficient if younger generation organizations integrated their efforts.It was necessary to gather people who wanted to collaborate in the nuclear field. At the International Forum "Youth and the Plutonium Challenge" held in Obninsk, Russia in the summer of 1998, the participants confirmed once again their interest in holding the Congress. During the European Nuclear Congress in Nice, France in autumn of the same year, the organizing meeting took place. The youth from Russia, France, the United States and Slovakia stated the mission of the IYNC. The city of Bratislava, Slovakia was chosen as the location for the Congress. Bratislava has a rich history dating back to the Early Stone Age. It is a comfortable, placid and inexpensive city situated in the center of Europe not far from the International Atomic Energy Agency in Vienna. The Congress was supported by the representatives of nuclear industry from around the world. This allowed the Congress to attract youth, experts and sponsors. Several preparatory meetings of the Executive Committee took place in Boston, USA; Obninsk, Russia; and Bratislava, Slovakia. The Executive Committee included the representatives from different countries and organizations who actively worked to make the idea of the Congress come true. During the course of two years the intensive work was performed. Invitations were sent throughout the world with the call to talk about the current direction of nuclear youth activities and ideas concerning its future. Many organizations responded and sent their young specialists to the Congress. And finally the Congress took place! SPIRIT Much was done to make the Congress special for the attendees. The festival-like atmosphere and the positive work environment at the sessions were promoted by the high quality printed materials and handouts, by the flag of the Congress, and by the bright T-shirts with the IYNC 2000 logo. Enthusiasm was in everything that happened and it transferred to everyone. Technical Tours & Special Events Two technical tours were conducted as part of IYNC 2000. Participants had the choice of visiting the Bohunice Nuclear Power Plant and Radioactive Waste Treatment Center, or the Mochovce Nuclear Power Plant and Mochovce National Low and Intermediate Level RAW Repository. It was an invaluable opportunity for the participants, in particular for students, to see a real operating plant, to learn many interesting and useful things from the staff, and to ask the questions concerning plant operation and maintenance, technical features, ecology and safety of nuclear power plants. The social event program included Welcome reception, Farewell and Awards Dinner and special Slovak evening. Fun Run was held at the first day of the Congress. Technical Program Technical program of the Congress proved to be well balanced both on the issues discussed and by the number of experts among the speakers. Three Congress days passed in the course of intensive work. Students and young nuclear specialists shared their achievements. The topics of the Congress were directed to the future and were not limited by highly specialized issues. It was important to investigate the directions where the youth could apply their efforts in the most effective way. The Congress held both Oral Presentation sessions and Poster sessions. Every session started with keynote speakers and went on with youth presentations. The audience asked questions of the speakers and discussed the relevant issues. Eleven sessions with oral presentations and panel sessions were held. Besides the Opening Panel, Young Generation Session and the International Committee meeting the following topics were discussed: Nuclear Education and Transfer of Knowledge, Nuclear Technology, Political Aspects, Environment and Safety, Communication and Public Perception, Nuclear Programs and Technical Cooperation, Economics, and Fuel Cycle Challenges. A Media Training Workshop was held on April 12, 2000. Poster sessions were paired with plenary sessions and held during extended coffee breaks to provide participants the opportunity to view and discuss the ideas from the poster presentations. Nuclear power was created by humans for the welfare of mankind. The development of nuclear industry is impossible without interaction between different social groups. This thought was reflected at the sessions held at the Congress. "Y-Notes" sessions were held each evening following the formal sessions to give participants a unique opportunity for international discussions about the challenges facing the nuclear industry.

This is a big step towards the automatic processing and/or extraction of information, especially from official documents and newspapers, where the standard, literary language is used. Apart from those official languages, a large number of dialects or closely-related language variants are in daily use, not only as spoken colloquial languages but also in some written media, e.g., in SMS, chats, and social networks. Building language resources and tools for them from scratch is expensive, but the efforts can often be reduced by making use of pre-existing resources and tools for related, resource-richer languages. Examples of closely-related language variants include the different variants of Spanish in Latin America, the Arabic dialects in North Africa and the Middle East, German in Germany, Austria and Switzerland, French in France and in Belgium, Dutch in the Netherlands and Flemish in Belgium, etc.

  • Czech Language and Literature Peter Zusi
    chapter 17 Czech Language and Literature Peter Zusi Recent years have seen a certain tendency to refer to Kafka as a ‘Czech’ author – a curious designation for a writer whose literary works, without exception, are composed in German. As the preceding chapter describes, Kafka indeed lived most of his life in a city where Czech language and society gradually came to predominate over the German-speaking minor- ity, and Kafka – a native German-speaker – adapted deftly to this changing social landscape. Referring to Kafka as Czech, however, is inaccurate, explicable perhaps only as an attempt to counterbalance a contrasting simplification of his complicated biography: the marked tendency within Kafka scholarship to investigate his work exclusively in the context of German, Austrian or Prague-German literary history. The Czech socio-cultural impulses that surrounded Kafka in his native Prague have primarily figured in Kafka scholarship through sociological sketches portraying ethnic animosity, lack of communication and, at times, open violence between the two largest lin- guistic communities in the city. These historical realities have given rise to the persistent image of a ‘dividing wall’ between the Czech- and German- speaking inhabitants of Prague, with the two populations reading different newspapers, attending separate cultural institutions and congregating in segregated social venues. This image of mutual indifference or antagonism has often made the question of Kafka’s relation to Czech language and cul- ture appear peripheral. Yet confronting the perplexing blend of proximity and distance, famil- iarity and resentment which characterized inter-linguistic and inter- cultural contact in Kafka’s Prague is a necessary challenge.

  • 'New Look' in Name's Standardization in Ukraine Iryna Sofinska Abstract ***** My Country Has a Long-Going History Despite All Pa
    ONOMÀSTICA BIBLIOTECA TÈCNICA DE POLÍTICA LINGÜÍSTICA 'New look' in name's standardization in Ukraine Iryna Sofinska DOI: 10.2436/15.8040.01.95 Abstract In this article I concentrate mostly on standardization applied to anthroponymy in Ukraine, however, in fact, till now there are no official standards of names. Therefore, after the ‘iron curtain’ failed among ordinary citizens there appeared a seduction for young parents to be not like the others and to give their children names, which are far from Ukrainian traditions and religious views, but popular in other countries of the world and are used in other languages. Such names entered into general Ukrainian onomasticon through the music, literature, movies, television etc. but still remain very rare. Nowadays, the main issue is dedicated to correct transcription and transliteration of registered names, and therefore, to demonstrate position of the State in this particular question. According to the reports of the Ministry of Justice of Ukraine for last five years almost ‘standardized’ onomasticon of popular names in Ukraine have not been changed seriously, however, Ukrainian forms of names prevail over the others. ***** My country has a long-going history despite all parts of the modern Ukraine since XIV century and till the end of World War II were separated. They were parts of different countries with different legal systems and anthroponymic traditions. Even during a turbulent 20th century (we can characterize it by periods of political upheaval, brutal dictatorship, forced famine, genocide, war, resistance movements, economic uncertainty and renewal of independence) territory of Ukraine was divided in several parts, which have been included into different European countries (Austria and Hungary, Czech and Slovakia, Poland, Romania and Soviet Union) with different ethnicity, language, religion, administrative and political structure, level of economic and industrial development.

Further copies made in accordance with such instructions may not be made without the written permission of the Author. CEU eTD Collection i Abstract This thesis provides a look the fundamental programmatic articles of the Croatian National Revival. It attempts to first contextualize the Croatian national movement within the context of the Habsburg Monarchy, and especially in regards to the relationship of Croatia and Hungary. Secondly, the thesis attempts to explore the possible continuity between the ideology of the Croatian National Revival and the Enlightenment. This is done using some of the fundamental documents of the national movement. Looking at the political program of the national movement, I attempt to identify the influences of the Enlightenment in both explicit and implicit level. Furthermore, as this thesis is on a fundamental level concerned with nationalism, I will explore the interaction between the political programs of the national movement and historical narratives as both are often found in the same text.

Slavic Departments). Yet the very concept of Slavicness is inherently problematic. Objectively, the only feature that binds all Slavs together is linguistic – the common genealogy and the present similarities of their languages.

  • The Making of the Slavs: History and Archaeology of the Lower Danube
    The Making of the Slavs This book offers a new approach to the problem of Slavic ethnicity in south- eastern Europe between c. and c. , from the perspective of current anthropological theories. The conceptual emphasis here is on the relation between material culture and ethnicity. The author demonstrates that the history of the Sclavenes and the Antes begins only at around . He also points to the significance of the archaeological evidence, which suggests that specific artifacts may have been used as identity markers. This evidence also indicates the role of local leaders in building group boundaries and in leading successful raids across the Danube. The names of many powerful leaders appear in written sources, some being styled “kings.”Because of these military and political developments, Byzantine authors began employing names such as Sclavenes and Antes in order to make sense of the process of group identification that was taking place north of the Danube frontier. Slavic ethnicity is therefore shown to be a Byzantine invention. is Assistant Professor of Medieval History, University of Florida THE MAKING OF THE SLAVS History and Archaeology of the Lower Danube Region, c. – FLORIN CURTA CONTENTS List of figures page ix List of tables xiii Acknowledgments xiv List of abbreviations xv Introduction Slavic ethnicity and the ethnie of the Slavs: concepts and approaches Sources for the history of the early Slavs (c. –) The Slavs in early medieval sources (c. –) The Balkans and the Danube limes during the sixth and seventh centuries
