  • Anti ‑Romani Terrorism in Europe 1
    Anti ‑Romani terrorism in Europe 1 Miroslav MAREŠ Politics in Central Europe (ISSN: 1801-3422) Vol. 12, No. 2 DOI: 10.1515/pce-2016-0013 Abstract: This article analyzes terrorism against the Roma in Europe. It identifies acts of terrorism in violence that targets the largest stateless nation on the continent and categorizes this terrorism according to current research methods. Focusing on events in both Western and Eastern Europe, the article analyses and compares the most significant terrorist acts against the Roma of recent years. It concludes that anti ‑Romani terrorism is heterogeneous in terms of tactics, strategies, and ideological justification, yet can usually be subsumed into the broadly conceived category of far ‑right terrorism. The variety of attacks suggests that terrorist acts are an offshoot of the broad spectrum of anti‑Romani activity, and are influenced by contemporary trends in inter ‑ethnic violence. Key words: Romani people, terrorism, Europe, far right, racist violence Introduction For several decades now, a wave of substantial anti ‑Romani violence has been present in Europe, a continent on which the Roma are the largest stateless ethnic group or nation. This article analyzes violence against the Roma throu‑ gh the prism of terrorism. The issue is examined from the point of view of the victims—members of the Romani population or its constituent ethnicities. Building upon this basis, the strategies of the terrorists themselves are analyzed and categorized according to the generally respected typologies of terrorism. In order to do this, a framework for analysis is first introduced; this is based on the typologies of terrorism in general and those of far ‑right terrorism in 1 This article was written as part of the grant project GAČR GA408/11/0709 “Contemporary challenges of democracy in East Central Europe,” funded by the Czech Science Foundation.

The Thermenregion is the exception, producing the best Pinot Noirs of Austria.” Frank Smulders, MW “...the dry whites...of the Thermenregion were every bit as impressive” Stuart Pigott, wine author, New York “Let’s begin in the Thermenregion … with the world’s best St. Laurent.” René Gabriel, Weinwisser magazine, Switzerland “Thermenregion is all about nuances and to experience this , one must remain quiet, open and attentive. Virtues of fruit like clarity, transparency, depth and authenticity first then become apparent.

    WHC Nomination Documentation File Name: 1033.pdf UNESCO Region: EUROPE AND THE NORTH AMERICA __________________________________________________________________________________________________ SITE NAME: Historic Centre of Vienna DATE OF INSCRIPTION: 16th December 2001 STATE PARTY: AUSTRIA CRITERIA: C (ii)(iv)(vi) DECISION OF THE WORLD HERITAGE COMMITTEE: Excerpt from the Report of the 25th Session of the World Heritage Committee The Committee inscribed the Historic Centre of Vienna on the World Heritage List under criteria (ii), (iv), and (vi): Criterion (ii): The urban and architectural qualities of the Historic Centre of Vienna bear outstanding witness to a continuing interchange of values throughout the second millennium. Criterion (iv): Three key periods of European cultural and political development - the Middle Ages, the Baroque period, and the Gründerzeit - are exceptionally well illustrated by the urban and architectural heritage of the Historic Centre of Vienna. Criterion (vi): Since the 16th century Vienna has been universally acknowledged to be the musical capital of Europe. While taking note of the efforts already made for the protection of the historic town of Vienna, the Committee recommended that the State Party undertake the necessary measures to review the height and volume of the proposed new development near the Stadtpark, east of the Ringstrasse, so as not to impair the visual integrity of the historic town. Furthermore, the Committee recommended that special attention be given to continuous monitoring and control of any changes to the morphology of the historic building stock. BRIEF DESCRIPTIONS Vienna developed from early Celtic and Roman settlements into a Medieval and Baroque city, the capital of the Austro- Hungarian Empire. It played an essential role as a leading European music centre, from the great age of Viennese Classicism through the early part of the 20th century.

  • Singer in Concert
    José Cura the Singer in Concert Then comes José Cura and the stage explodes. He’s a real professional with remarkably constant contact with the audience. The audience gave thanks with a standing ovation. Súgópéldány, February 2015 José Cura’s early years as a singer followed the normal trajectory of young, talented artists: working to acquire experience, reIining stagecraft and gaining exposure. The hustle required to “make it” in theaters and open air venues often prove over-whelming but Cura thrived under the intensity, the pressure, the public gaze. No matter the size of the crowd, he pressed on, giving his all, willing his all, to reach each member of the audience, to sell himself and his potential. The struggle to succeed strengthened his resolve and honed his instincts as an entertainer, allowing the emerging showman to gain conIidence, to burnish his charisma. Cura careened from opportunity to opportunity, from stage to stage, city to city, developing his unique style of delivery and spreading his charm, inevitably creating the trajectory needed to launch a legendary career. Recitals with reduced piano scores are a starting point in the development of a young vocalist. Cura learned quickly: performances of highlights from Cavalleria rusticana at the Teatro dell’Arca in Milan, La fanciulla del west for the Circle Dordoni in Brescia, Il trovatore at Teatro Rosetum in Milan. Cura also secured his Iirst appearance outside Italy in 1992, in Breisgau, Germany, with an evening of Italian opera favorites. Small roles in operas (Le remendado in Carmen and Il capitano dei ballestrieri in Simon Boccanegra) led to bigger roles (Albert Gregor in Il caso Makropulos, Lt Niki in Sogno di un valzer, Jan in La signorina Julie) and a Iirst recording (Le villi, live from Martina Franca).
