The information set out in Part I of the Report will, of course, be described more fully and in greater detail in Part II under the provisions of the Convention referred to in the body of the Report and in accordance with the Outline for Reports drawn up by the Council of Europe. The Report has been prepared by the Ministry of the Interior (Central Department for the Problems of Frontier Areas and Ethnic Minorities), with the assistance of the Office of the Council of Ministers (Department for Regional Affairs), the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Ministry of Education. When the Report was being drawn up it was also considered appropriate to seek the opinion of CONFEMILI (National Federative Committee for Linguistic Minorities in Italy). Italy’s policy concerning the protection of national minorities The Framework Convention for the Protection of National Minorities entered into force in Italy on 3 March 1998, following the adoption of Law No 302 of 28 August 1997 authorising its ratification and the deposit of Italy’s instrument of ratification on 3 November 1997. The guide to the drafting of the Reports to be submitted pursuant to Article 25 paragraph 1 of the Convention provides that Part I is to contain an introduction describing the way in which the Convention has been implemented in each country. It is clear, moreover, that an exhaustive account of the commitment and the efforts which Italy has made over the years in relation to the protection of minorities, in accordance with the principles set out in the Convention, must necessarily take account of the period preceding the adoption of the Convention. For historical reasons Italy has a multilingual context, with different populations which have been settled in its territory for centuries; it includes communities whose languages are German, Albanian, Greek, Slovenian and Croat, Franco-Provençal, French, Occitan, Catalan, Ladin, Sardinian and Friulian. The reasons for the presence of these groups in Italy are very complex. Linguistic minorities have settled in 13 Italian regions, apart from the two Provinces with Special Statutes, Trentino and Bolzano, which form the Region of Trentino-Alto Adige. Having regard to this linguistic and cultural wealth, the importance of which was taken into consideration by the Constituent Assembly, the Constitution includes, among its fundamental principles, a specific provision on the protection of linguistic minorities, namely Article 6, which provides that “The Republic shall safeguard linguistic minorities by means of special provisions”. ACFC/SR(1999)007 4 Particular attention was given to the protection and problems of linguistic minorities at the time of the foundation of the Italian Republic, and a significant and complex body of legislation relating to these matters was enacted during the years that followed. The subject has always been a central issue for both Parliament and the Government, and this was recently reaffirmed in October 1998 when the President of the Council of Ministers, presenting the Government’s programme to Parliament, emphasised that the Government, in order to ensure “the equality of all citizens before the law, [would] devote particular attention to ethnic minorities, by providing for the dynamic development of their special autonomous powers in order to protect their special features, particularly with a view to possible constitutional or electoral reforms”. In the Italian legal system the concept of “minority” is linked exclusively to that of language, or, rather, linguistic minority, on the basis of Article 6 of the Constitution. All other factors capable of distinguishing a minority, such as ethnic group, religion, race etc., are dealt with in other general articles of the Constitution; these articles provide that citizens are equal before the law without distinction as to sex, race, language, religion, political opinions and personal or social conditions, and guarantee personal freedoms, the right of assembly, the right of association and the right to profess one’s religion freely, both individually and in association, to promote that religion and to worship in private or in public. The fundamental aspect to emerge from these articles constitutes and defines the position of each and every individual vis-à-vis the Italian legal system: the Constitution asserts the principles of freedom and equality. These two principles permeate the entire Italian legal system; they establish that all citizens are entitled to equal treatment under the same conditions before the law and represent a crucial point on which the Constitution rests. The Italian Constitution contains the following two fundamental aspects: (a) absolute respect for the freedom guaranteed in Article 2, which states that “the Republic recognises and guarantees the inviolable rights of man, both as an individual and as a member of the social groups in which one’s personality finds expression, and it requires the performance of imperative political, economic and social duties”. (b) equality of treatment, which is clearly provided for in Article 3 paragraph 1, which confers equal social status and equality before the law on all citizens “without distinction as to sex, race, language, religion, political opinions, and personal or social conditions”. This paragraph, which

  • Experts Weigh in on Istrian Food
    The “Authentic” Blend: Experts Weigh in on Istrian Food By: Daša Ličen Abstract This article examines the discourses and concepts of regional Istrian gourmet heroes, who bring into being and distribute ideas on what “authentic” Istrian cuisine is. Citizens of three different countries who speak four different languages, these experts consider themselves most of all Istrian and characterize Istrian foods as alternative foods in contrast to mainstream agro-industrial varieties. Drawing on ethnographic fieldwork, this essay focuses on how these experts arbitrarily use adjectives such as “authentic,” “traditional,” “natural” and others in overlapping ways which I will show create obstacles to labelling the precise terminology of each. Ultimately I argue that these descriptors are all interchangeable in the experts’ discourse(s) on Istrian food, furthermore denoting Istrian food itself, although most of the time they absolutely do not mean the same. This mishmash is nowadays one of the main elements unifying the Istrian region as such, and while similarly present in many different places, Istria’s food movement is unique, because of its geographical and historical contexts. Key terms: Istria, alternative foodways, experts, authenticity, region, Mediterranean diet. Introduction Experts like to put the word Istrian before the name of a recipe to denote that the dish belongs specifically to the Istrian region of Italy, Slovenia, and Croatia, or they use some other positive adjective to reconfirm the quality of the product. Dishes thus carry names such as “good homemade bread,” Ličen, Daša. 2016. “The “Authentic” Blend: Experts Weigh in on Istrian Food.” Digest: a Journal of Foodways and Culture 5:2: n.

  • 1954, Addio Trieste... the Triestine Community of Melbourne
    1954, Addio Trieste... The Triestine Community of Melbourne Adriana Nelli A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Victoria University November 2000 -^27 2->v<^, \U6IL THESIS 994.5100451 NEL 30001007178181 Ne 1 li, Adriana 1954, addio Trieste— the Triestine community of MeIbourne I DECLARATION I hereby declare that this thesis is the product of my original work, including all translations from Italian and Triestine. An earlier form of Chapter 5 appeared in Robert Pascoe and Jarlath Ronayne, eds, The passeggiata of Exile: The Italian Story in Australia (Victoria University, Melbourne, 1998). Parts of my argument also appeared in 'L'esperienza migratoria triestina: L'identita' culturale e i suoi cambiamenti' in Gianfranco Cresciani, ed., Giuliano-Dalmati in Australia: Contributi e testimonianze per una storia (Associazione Giuliani nel Mondo, Trieste, 1999). Adriana Nelli ABSTRACT Triestine migration to Australia is the direct consequence of numerous disputations over the city's political boundaries in the immediate post- World War II period. As such the triestini themselves are not simply part of an overall migratory movement of Italians who took advantage of Australia's post-war immigration program, but their migration is also the reflection of an important period in the history of what today is known as the Friuli Venezia Giulia Region.. 1954 marked the beginning of a brief but intense migratory flow from the city of Trieste towards Australia. Following a prolonged period of Anglo-American administration, the city had been returned to Italian jurisdiction once more; and with the dismantling of the Allied caretaker government and the subsequent economic integration of Trieste into the Italian State, a climate of uncertainty and precariousness had left the Triestines psychologically disenchanted and discouraged.

  • The Ethnographic Research of the Digital Divide
    DIGITAL DIVIDE IN ISTRIA A dissertation presented to the faculty of the College of Communication of Ohio University In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy Igor Matic August 2006 The dissertation entitled DIGITAL DIVIDE IN ISTRIA by IGOR MATIC has been approved for the School of Telecommunications and the College of Communication by Karen E. Riggs Professor, School of Telecommunications Gregory J. Shepherd Dean, College of Communication ABSTRACT MATIC, IGOR, Ph. D., August 2006, Mass Communication DIGITAL DIVIDE IN ISTRIA (209 pp.) Director of Dissertation: Karen E. Riggs This dissertation covers the Digital Divide phenomena in the Istrian region. Istria is a Northern Adriatic peninsula that is administratively divided between three European countries: Croatia (which covers approximately 90% of the peninsula), Slovenia (app. 7%), and Italy (app. 3%). In this dissertation my goal was to articulate the most influential theoretical frameworks that are used to explain the Digital Divide today and I try to give an explanation of the issue through ethnographic procedures. The goals of this research include the examination of the current Digital Divide debate, extension of the theory toward the local understanding and perception of this global phenomenon. Additionally, I wanted to identify different interpretations of the Digital Divide in three countries within one region and compare the differences and similarities in new technology usage and perceptions. Also, I was interested to see how age - which is described as one of the major Digital Divide factors - influences the relationships between older and younger generations, specifically relationships between parents and children, instructors, students and co-workers.
