Prelmet Transilvania) Founded : March 2013 The Cluster Prelucrări Metale Transilvania, Metallcluster Siebenburgen, Cluster Metal Manufactoring Transilvania (PrelMet Transilvania) Founded : March 2013 The cluster is composed by fifteen SME , two companies (and the number grows ) , three universities , two city-halls , two regional administrations , six facilitators and last but not the least an specialized industrial park. Mission : The Cluster Prelucrări Metale Transilvania, Metallcluster Siebenburgen, Cluster Metal Manufactoring Transilvania (PrelMet Transilvania), aims to increase the organizational capacity of the Cluster. The need for implementing this project is determined by the regional and national need of developing cluster structures, based on networking and wining the trust of the economic agents in this type of representation, cooperation, collaboration and development for the future of their communities. The idea of this project was determined by the fact that a cluster is a strong mechanism that can contribute to a sustainable development at regional level, for beginning, and after that at national level. The competitive advantages offered by the cluster structure are deriving from the microeconomic level and are leading towards innovation, increase of the efficiency and supporting the start-up process. Main advantages for the companies that are members in a cluster are: (1) common specialized human resources; (2) common suppliers and specialized clients; (3) specific infrastructure with training institutions adapted to cluster needs together with development and research institutions; (4) dissemination of the knowledge inside the cluster. The main objective of the Cluster PrelMet Transilvania is to increase to companies’ efficiency and to reduce the differences between average level recorded at national level and the European Union’s level. The target is represented by recording economic increase by the members. As part of the main objective, it is desired that the clusters will include in the future more companies as the first result of the organizational enforcement, as well to create and implement an efficient communication system that will develop cooperation relations between cluster’s members and will gain also the trust in this organization that can offer them representativeness and can become a facilitator for their future development. A first step is straitening the organizational capacity of the cluster. For assuring the representativeness at regional level the cluster must extend its network of members including more companies in the area of metal processing that are willing to develop in this association, to work in a cluster network and to awareness them about the advantages of working in this associative form, to create and implement an efficient communication system that will help them to be a regional representative association and a facilitator for the future development The cluster aims to develop R&D&I activities , technology transfer and coordinates activities and projects at cluster level , in order to internationally promote thr cluster , to improve the cooperation between cluster’s members and attracting new members . Specific objectives – develop metal processing sector in Romania , especially in our proximity – improve R&D&I capacity ; stimulate R&D and factories cooperation ; improve cluster’s members access to R&D findings – improve cluster’s members access to technology transfer – improve cluster’s members productivity – focused training – gain advantage in existing market and improving access to new markets – develop cooperation and networking between members – support for a favorable business environment – internationalization Appendix List of companies : 1.

These geographical - historical characteristics of the Transylvanian region have generated through the historical periods the existence of a land with comprehensive meaning of the geographical space. In this context, the topic of our study discovers the birth of each town and his evolution over the years, its importance and functions in each historical period. In order to achieve a better knowledge about the geographical-historical evolution of towns in Transylvania we have identified and analyzed the differences between the ages of different towns referring to their first documentary attestation. Then, we deduced the three genetic types of towns in Transylvania region that can be divided into three categories: fortress and citadel, fair and primary resource town. The correlation between the ages of towns and their genetic type is performed, resulting in a novel approach for the geographical - historical research in the evolution of a town from the Transylvania region.

Development through participation has shifted the traditional paradigm by placing emphasis on a diversity of local actors, and has generated mixed results, depending on the socio-cultural context of the development area. The socio- cultural characteristics of the local respondents may provide clues that can prove helpful in optimising the strategy of social intervention.

  • DANIEL DUMITRAN, Jewish Cemeteries Of
    DANIEL DUMITRAN, Jewish Cemeteries of Romania: Alba Iulia Case Study Abstract: Places of memory and also holders of significant historical information, Jewish cemeteries were in Romania insufficiently subject to recovery efforts. The dramatic decline in Jewish communities led to the cessation of the use of several cemeteries and to severe deteriorations of funerary monuments. According to statistics from 2007, of the 810 registered cemeteries, over 750 were in places where Jews no longer existed. In the last decade a general inventory has been made and the risk factors for the preservation of gravestones have been indicated. However, concrete interventions for research and preservation of cemeteries have been delayed. In these circumstances, the question is whether their meanings (sacred places, places of memory, vestiges of the past) have been preserved for the non-Jewish communities, or whether they are doomed to oblivion, like the communities they served. My paper tries to answer this question, based on the results of an ongoing project, regarding the inventory and description of gravestones existing in the Jewish cemeteries of Alba County. The only city in Transylvania where Jews had the right of settlement from the seventeenth century, Alba Iulia hosted a large community of Jews, originally Sephardic, and later majority Ashkenazi. The cemetery, with continuing function attested from the mid eighteenth century, reflects the combination of strictly observed tradition and tendency towards integration into the host community, in the last quarter of the nineteenth century, when Jews acquired civil emancipation. The few monumental crypts belonging to rich families illustrate their full integration in the host Hungarian community.

  • Damages and Dreams from a 20-Year-Old Conflict. the Case of Rosia Montana and the Struggle for Sustainability
    Örebro University Master’s Course in Sociology with a Sustainable Development Focus Supervisor: Benedict Singleton Examiner: Ylva Uggla Date: 28 May 2018 Damages and dreams from a 20-year-old conflict. The case of Rosia Montana and the struggle for sustainability Student: Denisa Elena Leonte 1 I thank my family and friends for supporting me throughout the process of writing this thesis. To Octavian, Oana, Irina, Frita, and Raluca 2 Abstract How do transitions to sustainability emerge? Save Rosia Montana Campaign is a representative socio-environmental movement, that cancelled an open-cast gold mining project in the urban- village of Rosia Montana, Romania. After almost 20 years of conflict with the mining project initiators, the people that oppose mining are now struggling for implementing tourism as an alternative development of the place, that could allow the possibility of sustainable development. The research aims to assess the extent that Rosia Montana represents an example of an environmental conflict that generates change towards sustainable development. The paper reconstructs the history of conflict around Rosia Montana by using the theoretical framework of ecological distribution conflict, while it's investigating the outcomes that this struggle produced. By revealing the visions of sustainable development and the challenges experienced by the opposition to mining, we can understand the notion of alternatives in conflict. The alternatives to development from Rosia Montana are questioning conventional perceptions of development and democracy, while requesting social transformation for meeting their needs and enhancing their quality of life. Keywords: ecological distribution conflict, alternative development, environmental justice movements, sustainability transitions. 3 List of abbreviations.

    START UP INFORMATION City/Partnership Alba Iulia Contact (name-institution-mail) Project Name of the project-action to be developed Cooperation Thematic Area Concrete Challenge Faced SHORT SUMARY OF THE CITY’S CONTEXT • General presentation Alba Iulia is a 74000-inhabitant city located in Transylvania, at the center of Romania. More than 700 employees work for the Municipality. Alba Iulia is an emergent European tourist destination, due to its impressive 2000-year historic and cultural heritage. It is the symbol city of Romanian unity (in 1918, the unification of Romanian provinces took place here) and it is marketing itself as “The Other Capital”. Alba Iulia was the first Romanian city to draft a city brand manual adhering to international standards. Its branding strategy focuses on the main identity element of Alba Iulia: Alba Carolina Citadel, an 18th century citadel built by the Austrian Empire, which was recently rehabilitated with funds offered by the EU, the Romanian government, the Kingdom of Norway, the Japanese government and the United Nations. Alba Iulia has the highest EU fund absorption rate per capita in Romania - 150 million euros were attracted to the city in the last 10 years. It is also the first city in Romania to receive a rating from Moody’s (in 2015, Ba1 with positive outlook) and the only Romanian city to have had a technical assistance agreement with the World Bank. Alba Iulia has also been mentioned in publications such as Forbes, Washington Post or Corriere della Sera, as a best practice example in the field of cultural tourism and city branding strategies.
