  • Historical GIS: Mapping the Bucharest Geographies of the Pre-Socialist Industry Gabriel Simion*, Alina Mareci, Florin Zaharia, Radu Dumitru
    # Gabriel Simion et al. Human Geographies – Journal of Studies and Research in Human Geography Vol. 10, No. 2, November 2016 | www.humangeographies.org.ro ISSN–print: 1843–6587 | ISSN–online: 2067–2284 Historical GIS: mapping the Bucharest geographies of the pre-socialist industry Gabriel Simion*, Alina Mareci, Florin Zaharia, Radu Dumitru University of Bucharest, Romania This article aims to map the manner in which the rst industrial units crystalized in Bucharest and their subsequent dynamic. Another phenomenon considered was the way industrial sites grew and propagated and how the rst industrial clusters formed, thus amplifying the functional variety of the city. The analysis was undertaken using Historical GIS, which allowed to integrate elements of industrial history with the location of the most important industrial objectives. Working in GIS meant creating a database with the existing factories in Bucharest, but also those that had existed in different periods. Integrating the historical with the spatial information about industry in Bucharest was preceded by thorough preparations, which included geo-referencing sources (city plans and old maps) and rectifying them. This research intends to serve as an example of how integrating past and present spatial data allows for the analysis of an already concluded phenomenon and also explains why certain present elements got to their current state.. Key Words: historical GIS, GIS dataset, Bucharest. Article Info: Received: September 5, 2016; Revised: October 24, 2016; Accepted: November 15, 2016; Online: November 30, 2016. Introduction The spatial evolution of cities starting with the ending of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th is closely connected to their industrial development.

  • Romania Redivivus
    alexander clapp ROMANIA REDIVIVUS nce the badlands of neoliberal Europe, Romania has become its bustling frontier. A post-communist mafia state that was cast to the bottom of the European heap by opinion- makers sixteen years ago is now billed as the success story Oof eu expansion.1 Its growth rate at nearly 6 per cent is the highest on the continent, albeit boosted by fiscal largesse.2 In Bucharest more politicians have been put in jail for corruption over the past decade than have been convicted in the rest of Eastern Europe put together. Romania causes Brussels and Berlin almost none of the headaches inflicted by the Visegrád Group—Czechia, Hungary, Poland, Slovakia— which in 1993 declined to accept Romania as a peer and collectively entered the European Union three years before it. Romanians con- sistently rank among the most Europhile people in the Union.3 An anti-eu party has never appeared on a Romanian ballot, much less in the parliament. Scattered political appeals to unsavoury interwar traditions—Legionnairism, Greater Romanianism—attract fewer voters than do far-right movements across most of Western Europe. The two million Magyars of Transylvania, one of Europe’s largest minorities, have become a model for inter-ethnic relations after a time when the park benches of Cluj were gilded in the Romanian tricolore to remind every- one where they were. Indeed, perhaps the aptest symbol of Romania’s place in Europe today is the man who sits in the Presidential Palace of Cotroceni in Bucharest. Klaus Iohannis—a former physics teacher at a high school in Sibiu, once Hermannstadt—is an ethnic German head- ing a state that, a generation ago, was shipping hundreds of thousands of its ‘Saxons’ ‘back’ to Bonn at 4,000–10,000 Deutschmarks a head.

Contact data 1 Bucharest, 19 -24 of April 2012 Dear participants, A few years back, there was talk in ESU about making a coordinated effort to campaign on funding of higher education. Ever since, we have seen austerity get harsher. And I believe we were anticipating that well in 2009, but perhaps we never thought how arduous this road out of the crisis would actually be. Since the unions felt they did not want to commit to a European campaign effort, we had to find alternatives. Well, what has ESU been doing all these years? Projects; yes! But how have these been put to use? Surely our projects have aimed to inform and train to support unions on the national level, but also to provide policy advice and also evidence. So indeed, FIST was born! FinSt, excuse me! Financing the Students Future! With some innovation and extra thoughts into how to shift towards a campaigning union.

  • Note Regarding the Dissolution of the Working
    NOTE REGARDING THE DISSOLUTION OF THE WORKING POINT OF SC FONDUL PROPRIETATEA SA IN 15 CALEA VICTORIEI, ENTRANCE E, 2nd FLOOR, SECTOR 3, BUCHAREST SUBJECT TO THE APPROVAL OF THE EXTRAORDINARY GENERAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS DATED 29 NOVEMBER 2010 Taking into consideration the provisions of the Articles of incorporation of SC Fondul Proprietatea SA regarding the headquarter relocation, as well as letter no. 16651 of 18 August 2010 sent by the Romanian National Securities Commission, the former Directorate of the company decided to move the registered office from 17 Apolodor St., sector 5, Bucharest (the building where the headquarter of the Ministry of Public Finance is located), to 63-81 Calea Buzesti, 7th floor, sector 1, Bucharest, according to the rental contract signed between SC Fondul Proprietatea SA and Franklin Templeton Investment Management Limited United Kingdom, Bucharest Branch, on 29 July 2010. Upon establishment, the office of SC Fondul Proprietatea SA was in the same building as the headquarter of the Ministry of Public Finance, because the Ministry of Public Finance was a sole shareholder and no other headquarter was identified. In fact, the activity of SC Fondul Proprietatea SA has been developed at several working points, such as at World Trade Center and at Bucharest Financial Plaza, even since 2006. At present, the address of Bucharest Financial Plaza is registered with the National Trade Register Office as working point, although the rental contract expired on 30 June 2010. Having regard that the existence of the working point of SC Fondul Proprietatea SA in 15 Calea Victoriei, entrance E, 2nd floor, sector 3, Bucharest is no longer justified, as the rental contract expired, as well as the fact that, it is more organizationally efficient for the relation with shareholders, public institutions, our collaborators, as well as with any other third party to be managed from a single point (e.g.

  • Furnizorii Palatului Cotroceni- (1895 - 1930)
    FURNIZORII PALATULUI COTROCENI- (1895 - 1930) Ștefania DINU Abstract: The suppliers of the Cotroceni Palace and of the princely, then royal family Ferdinand and Maria were both those who held the Royal Court supplier's certificate obtained since the reign of King Carol I, and suppliers who did not own (or who had not applied for the Royal Court's supplier patent), but who, by delivering good quality goods, became its consistent and constant suppliers. If sometimes it had a slightly charitable aspect, the title of supplier of the Royal Court sought to promote some specialists who presented social, professional and moral guarantees, being, in fact, an official recognition of their merits. Through this title, the royalty encouraged crafts, production, services, its possession being a good example to follow. The granting of the patents of royal suppliers took place after the proclamation of Romania as a Kingdom and of Prince Carol of Hohenzollern as King, under the name of Carol I of Romania, when the princely suppliers existing until that moment, became royal suppliers. The supplier's patent of the Royal Court, according to the regulations regarding the granting of this title, from 1893, 1901, 1907, 1914 and 1920 shows that it "can be conferred on craftsmen, industrialists and merchants who, through ability and morality and a reputation in their specialty ". The patent for "supplier of the Royal House" was personal and non-transferable and was handed over without discrimination of race and religion, both to Romanians and foreigners. Once granted, the patent gave the right to place the royal insignia next to the firm and could be withdrawn if the holder no longer fulfilled a series of conditions required by the regulations regarding the granting of this title.
