3-6. Locs Dear Jaiiues/^ Thank You for the Information You
Ref. Ares(2014)54325 - 13/01/2014 • Ref. Ares(2013)3002738 - 06/09/2013 EUROPEAN COMMISSION Olli Rehn Member of the Commission Brussels, -3-6. Locs D(2005) JV9 C¿-ζ*- , Dear JaiIues/^ Thank you for the information you sent me on the situation of child care in Romania. As you can imagine I am well aware of the extreme complexity and sensitivity of this issue. For this reason the Commission has been very active in helping Romania to implement a child protection system in line with the standards of EU Member States. The PHARE programme has been used to help the Romanian authorities to implement modem structures in Romania. The new law which entered into force on 1st January 2005 is in line with the principles of our acquis and especially the UN Convention on Children's Rights (Article 21 of this Convention admits international adoption only if all other solutions have been exhausted). This is the spirit and the letter of the new law, which concentrates above all on the child's interests. These provisions have been assessed by an Independent Panel of Experts on Family Law of EU Member States under the chairmanship of a Belgian magistrate. They have concluded that the law and practice in Romania is now in line with the standards in place in our Member States. I folly understand that this sensitive issue raises different questions and symphatise with many of the different views expressed in this context. However, I feel that it is vital that the Commission continues to support Romania in implementing best practices of our Member States. -

The European Parliament Elections in Bulgaria Are Likely to Reinforce the Country's Political Stalemate Between Left and Right
The European Parliament elections in Bulgaria are likely to reinforce the country’s political stalemate between left and right blogs.lse.ac.uk/europpblog/2014/04/14/the-european-parliament-elections-in-bulgaria-are-likely-to-reinforce- the-countrys-political-stalemate-between-left-and-right/ 14/04/2014 The Bulgarian government currently lacks a majority in the country’s national parliament, with the governing coalition counting on support from 120 out of 240 MPs. Kyril Drezov writes that the upcoming European elections will likely be fought on the basis of this domestic situation, with European issues playing only a minor role, and the majority of seats being distributed between the two largest parties: the Bulgarian Socialist Party and the Citizens for European Development of Bulgaria (GERB). European Parliament Elections are still fairly new for Bulgaria – the 2014 elections will be only the third since accession. Like previous EP elections in 2007 and 2009, their function is purely as a test for changes in national politics. The present election campaign is overwhelmingly dominated by domestic concerns and is notable for the absence of EU-related issues. As a leftover from the accession days, the European Union is still considered ‘a good thing’ in Bulgaria and does not generate much passion. There is consensus amongst Bulgarians that key European policies are shaped somewhere else, and that Sofia’s role is to adapt to these policies whatever shape they may take. The big traditional players in Bulgarian politics gravitate towards particular European party families – Socialist, Christian Democratic and Liberal – and in their election manifestoes mostly parrot whatever line these party families take on the big European issues. -

EUROPEAN COMMISSION Olli Rehn Vice-President of the European Commission and member of the Commission responsible for Economic and Monetary Affairs and the Euro Karel De Gucht European Commissioner for Trade Statements following the EU-China High Level Economic and Trade Dialogue (HED) Fourth EU-China High Level Economic and Trade Dialogue (HED)/ Brussels 24 October 2013 SPEECH/13/854 Statement by Olli Rehn, Vice-President of the European Commission and member of the Commission responsible for Economic and Monetary Affairs and the Euro: Good evening. We have just had a very productive exchange of views with Vice-Premier Ma Kai and several Ministers on a wide range of economic and trade related issues. This has been done in the context of the Fourth High-Level Economic Dialogue between the European Union and China. The EU and China together represent around a third of global GDP. That means that our bilateral relations, as well as the impact we have on global economic relations, carry a lot of weight. Since the aim of developing a "strategic partnership" with China was announced in 2003 – a decade ago - there are now stronger trade links, and we have established working policy dialogues across a wide range of fields. On macro-economic policy coordination, we hold regular discussions on our respective economic policies at different levels, including with the Chinese National Development and Reform Commission, the Central Bank and the Ministry of Finance. In recent years, the crisis has posed very serious challenges to our economies, different in nature and size but all of them underlying the importance of global economic governance to tackle problems that have effects that cross borders; that affect the world economy. -

THE PENNSYLVANIA STATE UNIVERSITY SCHREYER HONORS COLLEGE DEPARTMENT OF SPANISH, ITALIAN, AND PORTUGESE L’ALTRO IN ITALIA: UNA TRADUZIONE E ANALASI CRITICA THE OTHER IN ITALY: A TRANSLATION AND CRITICAL ANALYSIS PAUL IMBARLINA Spring 2012 A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for a baccalaureate degree in Accounting with honors in Italian Reviewed and approved* by the following: Sherry Roush Associate Professor of Italian Thesis Supervisor Maria Truglio Associate Professor of Italian Honors Adviser * Signatures are on file in the Schreyer Honors College. ABSTRACT Today, Italy contains one of the most rapidly changing populations of the European Union. Currently, 7.2% of Italy’s 60 million residents are non-citizens. Recent demographic data trends towards a large demographic shift in Italy society. One of every six babies delivered was born to a foreign born immigrant in 2008. This wave of immigration, especially the segment arriving from Africa, has not been integrated smoothly into Italian society, however. Because of a prevailing xenophobic attitude in Italy, immigrants have been greeted with prejudice and even acts of violence. Thus, immigrants have become the “other” in Italy. The purpose of this thesis is to uncover “othering” in Italy and its origins through the translation of a work of a respected Italian journalist (Gian Antonio Stella). Additionally, this thesis offers a reflection on the process of translation. i TABLE OF CONTENTS ABSTRACT..………………………………………………………………………………..i TABLE OF CONTENTS……………………………………………………………………ii
