Thank you in advance for your time! By way of background, I currently serve as the Chief of Staff at When We All Vote, and I am thrilled to see an opportunity to potentially serve as the Executive Coordinator at Community Change. Through my previous work and current academic experience, I have developed strong organizational and collaborative skills. As a Scheduler on Capitol Hill, Account Executive for a fly-in consulting firm, and Executive Assistant to a CEO, I’ve managed logistics and operations for highly active members or principles. My responsibilities consisted of coordinating flights, constituent meetings, and corporate gatherings. There, I learned that no detail can be overlooked, and even the most obscure items can be helpful. This experience taught me the value of trust and teamwork. Additionally, as I matriculate through George Washington University, I have harnessed my project management skills while integrating the art of strategic communications. My passion is to equip marginalized communities with tools to engage with power as they enter the public square. Moreover, as a Black queer candidate who exists at these intersections, lived in an ecumenical home, studied at a historically black college and now a predominately white institution, these experiences have afforded me opportunities to educate while supporting subjugated groups. As the Executive Coordinator, I would support you both with the requisite tools to be successful, anticipate your needs, and optimize our efforts to build power and capacity for low-income people. I strongly believe in the work that is being done and would be grateful for the opportunity to discuss how I could serve Community Change. Sincerely, Gionelly G. Mills Gionelly G. Mills Gionelly G.

    Südosteuropa 57 (2009), H . 2/3, S . 284-304 DEMOCRACY AND MARKET ECONOMY WIM VAN MEURS Romania: New Membership and Old Habits? Abstract. Political developments in Romania as well as the resulting deficits in transition management since EU accession raise a number of fundamental but difficult questions . Should Romania’s “old habits” be thought of as a Huntingtonian blend of the country’s pre-communist political institutions and political culture mixed with “Ceauşescuism”, that is, Romania’s exceptional type of state socialism, sometimes dubbed “sultanism”? Or should these “old habits” actually be explained in terms of an event as recent as Romania’s EU accession proc- ess – and thus be seen as a sort of “post-accession syndrome”? Or should at least some part of the supposed Romanian or Balkan exceptionalism, to which Romania’s “old habits” are often attributed, be viewed in comparison with recent trends in the political culture – that is, the democratic attitudes of the citizens and the informal rules of the political process – in West European polities? Questioning path-dependencies cannot alleviate the problems caused by the obvious flaws in Romania’s political process, but thinking through negative pan-European trends does imply rethinking stereotypes about the Balkans . Wim van Meurs is an Associate Professor at the History Department of Radboud University, Nijmegen . History and Characteristics of Transformation Historically, Romania has been characterized by a modernization gap be- tween its southern and eastern regions, which remained under Ottoman rule until 1878, and its more modern, urbanized western and northwestern regions, which were under Habsburg rule until 1918 .

Political System The political system of Romania takes place in a framework of a semi-presidential republic, whereby the Prime Minister is the head of government and the President of the Republic is the head of state. The government exercises the executive power. Legislative power is vested in both the government and the two chambers of Parliament: the 412-seat Chamber of Deputies and the 176-seat Senate, which are elected for four years. Borrowing from its tragic past, the bicameral system in Romania is explained by the necessity to temper any possible authoritarian or extremist tendencies of a Chamber1. According to the Constitution, the Parliament of Romania grants the vote of confidence into the whole Cabinet and its political programme. Parliament also elects the magistrates composing the Superior Council of the Magistrature, and the two branches of Parliament are entitled to appoint three judges of the Constitutional Court each 2 .

  • Democratization Through European Integration: the Case of Minority Rights in the Czech Republic and Romania * Melanie H
    28 Studies in Comparative International Development / Summer 2003 Democratization through European Integration: The Case of Minority Rights in the Czech Republic and Romania * Melanie H. Ram While scholars have tended to focus on domestic factors as most critical to the consolidation of democracy, the post-communist European Union (EU) candidate states have exhibited a unique confluence of domestic and foreign policies, due to their objective of EU membership. This article assesses and compares the impact of the EU on policy making in two diverse candidate states in their first decade of transition, focusing on minority rights protection as a fundamental requirement of both EU membership and a stable democracy. I find that the EU has played a princi- pal role in the reform process and democratic consolidation of candidate states, even in the controversial field of minority rights. The degree and nature of the EU’s impact, however, has depended in part on the activism of the particular minority, EU interest and pressure, EU Member States’ own domestic policies, and the persis- tence of racism in society. n the post-communist transitions in Central and Eastern Europe (CEE), few Iissues have been as contentious as minority relations in multiethnic states. With minority discontent a potential threat to stability and democracy across Europe, the European Union (EU) has given considerable attention to minor- ity rights in CEE over the past decade and has used membership as an incen- tive to enforce compliance with human rights norms and agreements. While international institutions can be neither blamed nor credited for many of the developments in this region, the EU candidate countries in CEE appear to have been more successful at peacefully resolving minority rights concerns Dr.

  • The Checks and Balance of the State Branches in Romania
    LawThe checks Review and balancevol. VI, of special the state issue, branches December in Romania 2016, p. 197-206 197 THE CHECKS AND BALANCE OF THE STATE BRANCHES IN ROMANIA. AN ADMINISTRATIVE ASSESSMENT Associate professor Mihaela V. CĂRĂUȘAN* ABSTRACT This paper talks about the extent of public administration in connection to the separation and equilibrium of state’s power. This paper will try to address what the government of Romania has failed to address, which are the topics that must concentrate on enhancing its legal power as part of one state branch. This article focuses, also, on the links between the doctrine of the separation of powers and the concept of public administration in a cross-state branches perspective. Even if, the separations doctrine is at the root of the concept of public administration it remains unclear how administration relates to the other state powers. What is more, the doctrine proofs that public administration is an inner actor of the state’s branches and it can unbalanced or balance them. Keywords: administrative law, constitutional gridlock, regulatory power, independent authorities. 1. Introduction The principle of separation of powers is composed of several elements: separation of functions (among rule making, rule execution and rule adjudication), separation of agencies (constitutional court enforcing the constitution, and legislature, executive and judiciary operating in the post-constitutional stage), separation of persons and, most importantly, the structure of relations between the powers (pure separation, checks and balances on the decision level as in most presidential systems—or on the personal level as in most parliamentary systems).1 James Madison theory is that, the Constitution has to grant each branch its power, which serves the highest interests of the people, otherwise the quest to maintain the separation it becomes endless.

From year to year, the role of Social Media has become increasingly important. In this context, public institutions in Romania have started to use social networks more and more often, in order to increase the interest of citizens for interaction through social media. Usually, online communication channels do not replace other means of communication but offer the advantage of the large number of users who are increasingly active in these social networks. Also, public institutions maintain a close relationship with the media, given the fact that it can be a good channel of communication with citizens. Through this communication channel, they build a favorable image and make the activity of public administration transparent, which leads to an improvement in the relationship with citizens. Therefore, the relations of public institutions with the media are materialized through the organization of press conferences, through press releases or interviews with public administration leaders. Keywords. media communication strategies, public administration, social media 1. Central public administration. Theoretical approaches 1.1. General characteristics of the Central Public Administration The concept of "Administration" refers to the activity aimed at satisfying the general interest, in accordance with and by compliance with the law.
