MAREA REVOLTA ARABĂ 1916-1918 DRAGOŞ ILINCA* Abstract The historiography of the First World War suffers from what some may call a strongly Eurocentric perspective, given that entire regions that were caught in the conflagration are often overlooked. One of these regions is the Middle East, which played a significant role in the economy of war and the subsequent peace talks. Therefore, it is not so far-fetched to claim that the First World War is perhaps the most important moment in the creation of the modern Middle East and that the lack of continuity in the assumed commitments from the part of the European powers led to the appearance of security threats that have plagued this region ever since. The study below focuses on the Middle Eastern component of the First World War and its aftermath. Keywords: Arab Revolt of 1916, First World War, Middle East, Europe, Great Britain, Ottoman Empire În general, Primul Război Mondial (1914-1918) regiune a cărei semnificaţie pentru economia este privit ca un eveniment predominant „euro- războiului a fost una majoră, atât în ceea ce priveşte pean”.

  • Collective Memory and National Identity in Post-Communist Romania: Representations of the Communist Past in Romanian News Media and Romanian Politics (1990 - 2009)
    COLLECTIVE MEMORY AND NATIONAL IDENTITY IN POST-COMMUNIST ROMANIA: REPRESENTATIONS OF THE COMMUNIST PAST IN ROMANIAN NEWS MEDIA AND ROMANIAN POLITICS (1990 - 2009) A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY by Constanta Alina Hogea May 2014 Examining Committee Members: Carolyn Kitch, Advisory Chair, Journalism Nancy Morris, Media Studies and Production Fabienne Darling-Wolf, Journalism Mihai Coman, External Member, University of Bucharest © Copyright 2014 by Constanta Alina Hogea All Rights Reserved ii ABSTRACT My dissertation situates at the intersection of communication studies and political sciences under the umbrella of the interdisciplinary field of collective memory. Precisely, it focuses on the use of the communist past by political actors to gain power and legitimacy, and on the interplay between news media and politics in shaping a national identity in post-communist Romania. My research includes the analysis of the media representations of two categories of events: the anniversaries of the Romanian Revolution and the political campaigns for presidential/parliamentary elections. On the one hand, the public understanding of the break with communism plays an important role in how the post-communist society is defined. The revolution as a schism between the communist regime and a newborn society acts like a prism through which Romanians understand their communist past, but also the developments the country has taken after it. On the other hand, political communication is operating on the public imaginary of the past, the present and the future. The analysis of the political discourses unfolded in the news media shows how the collective memory of the communist past is used to serve political interests in the discursive struggle for power and legitimacy.

  • A New French Revolution? an Integrative Approach in the Analysis
    A New French Revolution? An integrative approach in the analysis of the Romanian transition A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Cand. Polit. Øyvind E. Lervik Department of Comparative Politics, University of Bergen, Norway February 2001 Avdeling for forskningsdokumentasjon, Universitetsbiblioteket i Bergen, 27.03.2001 SUMMARY This thesis has focued on the Romanian transition. The critical period concerned was from March 1989, with apparent signs of liberalisation, to the 1990 elections. Romania differed from the East and Central European transitions and the background of these cases. The Integrative Approach provided the analytical framework for relations between relevant structural characteristics and the violent revolution. An examination of several levels of aggregation gave actors’ preferences and the context of the transition, forming the basis for a game theoretic analysis. The issues justifying a transition questions and its proceedings were scrutinised. Selected theories in transitology were elaborated in light of these requirements. The study thus gave a methodological critique as well. The conclusions both gave insight into the forces that provoked the Romanian transition and illustrated how it was supervised. The observations provide contributions to generalisations on rational choices under transitions’ structural constraints, if supplemented with similar theoretical approaches to other cases. The Romanian transition was incomparable to the French revolution. Avdeling for forskningsdokumentasjon,

L’histoire du postcommunisme commence dans l’imaginaire collectif avec la chute du Mur de Berlin, le symbole pour presque 40 ans de la division Est-Ouest. Pour les Roumains, la date symbole pour la fin du régime communiste est le 22 Décembre 1989. Certainement, la surévaluation d’un court moment, la chute des régimes communistes n’est pas porteuse en elle-même. Néanmoins, son caractère et son déploiement influencent de manière significative la manière dont se construit, se consolide le régime démocratique d’après2. Cependant cette étude suit une niche particulière de l’étude des fondements démocratiques postautoritai- res/communistes, c’est-à-dire la construction de la réalité révolutionnaire par l’intermédiaire des médias étrangers.

    Annals of the Academy of Romanian Scientists Online edition Series on History and Archaeology ISSN 2067-5682 Volume 2, Number 2/2010 59 THE ROMANIAN REVOLUTION OF DECEMBER 1989 Ioan SCURTU Rezumat 1. 1989 fost un an revolu ţionar în istoria Europei. Atunci, regimurile socialist-totalitare (comuniste) din centrul şi estul continentului s-au pr ăbu şit, rând pe rând. Mai întâi în Polonia, apoi în Ungaria, Germania R ăsăritean ă, Cehoslovacia, Bulgaria, România. D ărâmarea zidului Berlinului, la 9 noiembrie 1989, a marcat începutul reunific ării Europei. Dac ă în celelate state revolu ţia român ă a avut o desf ăş urare pa şnic ă, în România, înl ăturarea regimului Ceau şescu s-a realizat pe cale violent ă, fiind înregistrate peste 1 000 de victime. În acela şi timp, revolu ţia român ă a avut un caracter radical, nemaitrecând printr-o etap ă de glasnosti şi perestroika (reforme ini ţiate de liderul sovietic Mihail Gorbaciov).
