Following this line of thought, political branding could benefit from the rise of social networks that promote more authenticity in relationships, due to their unmediated quality. Therefore, we explore the possibility of a more personable display of information through photographs on the Facebook pages of three Romanian women politicians – Elena Udrea, Alina Gorghiu and Oana Niculescu-Mizil. Preliminary findings indicate that politicians mostly use Facebook photographs to focus mainly on their official position and pro- fessional activities, not on personal angles of their lives, thus not making a clear distinction between the op- portunities offered by traditional media versus social media, particularly Facebook. Keywords: social media; Facebook political branding; Facebook photographs; Romanian women politicians. 1. Introduction Nowadays, Facebook enabled communication gains greater importance in image build- ing efforts of private and public persons alike. However, it is interesting to see if these dis- tinct categories use social networking in the same way to reach their objectives or if they employ different communication strategies. This paper analyzes the way in which Facebook is used by three Romanian women politi- cians, namely Elena Udrea, Alina Gorghiu and Oana Niculescu-Mizil, belonging to PDL (De- mocratic Liberal Party), PNL (National Liberal Party) and PSD (Social Democratic Party), the three main Romanian political parties. We intend to focus on their use of Facebook pho- tographs, as the visual elements of online identity-building are less researched, although cru- cial in establishing a certain identity. Firstly, we discuss the changes that new media brought in the field of communication and how they influence the process of political brand building. In addition, we also focus on the use of Facebook photographs as image vectors in supporting online personal branding ef- forts. Our aim is to establish the level of development reached in this field up to this moment and to select best practices in building a political brand online. * PhD candidate, National School of Political Studies and Public Administration, Romania, [email protected] ** PhD candidate, National School of Political Studies and Public Administration, Romania, [email protected] *** Popular phrase used in response to a person who has made an unbelievable or outlandish claim, com- mon on many forums around the Internet. Revista_comunicare_25.qxd 5/3/2012 12:54 PM Page 8 8 Revista românã de comunicare ºi relaþii publice We then examine the collected data regarding Facebook photographs of the three Roman- ian party members. For this purpose, we illustrate the way these politicians use visual cues as part of their online political branding strategy and show the similarities and differences be- tween them as they surface from our analysis. Specifically, we are interested in investigating if they use Facebook photographs in order to support their offline professional activities or rather to uncover more of their private life. 2. The rise of social networks: gaining access to private information The World Wide Web has suffered many transformations since its inception, and nowa- days we are experiencing a new reality that holds the promise of radical change in commu- nication – the emergence of the Web 2.0. The new reality also triggered the introduction of new syntagms like “web as platform”, “digital democracy”, “knowledge economy”, “open source”, “collaborative web”, “the cult of the amateur” etc. (Shih, 2009; Tapscott, 2009; Wit- tkower, 2010), describing

Freed from ideological and censorship constraints, latent anti­ semitism erupted in the public space, and after a while it became a cross­ party phenomenon. This does not mean that po liti cal parties had all put antisemitism on their banners; it rather means that regardless of ideology, both antisemitic prejudice and, above all, the perception of Romania’s “dark past”1 of the interwar period and the Second World War, as well as the role Jews had allegedly played in the early stage of communism, figured in simi­ lar shades, if not intensity, in all po liti cal formations. The “dark past” was by and large ignored and occasionally justified, while the claim about the Jews was overemphasized in what turned out to be a re nais sance of the “Judeo­ Bolshevik” myth.2 All of these ele ments were common to most East­ Central Eu ro pean countries. This is not to say that diferences between attitudes w ere not noticeable. One could, for example, distinguish between: (a) self­ exculpatory nostalgic -1— antisemitism, or parties and movements of a “radical return” to models of 0— the interwar radical right; (b) self­

The government claimed that the changes were imposed by Romania’s overcrowding prisons and repeated cases lost at the European Court of Human Rights in Strasbourg, who had threatened with a larger fine if some prison reform would not have been implemented. Romania has the largest number of prisoners in other EU member countries from all EU MS, besides a nearly double occupancy by domestic prisoners in the country. The government has the right to pass emergency ordinances, which become immediately enforced and are only later submitted to Parliamentary approval, and Criminal Code has been changed before in this way. Each government for the past twelve years has pledged to stop favouring this way of legislating over normal procedures, but in fact this has become the default way to pass bills due to high transaction costs in the Parliament. The other motive invoked by the government was that the Constitutional Court ruled in May 2016 as unconstitutional an article on power abuse asking for clarification1. The Court motivated with the Council of Europe (Venice Commission) report2, which asks that this notion is well specified to prevent the political abuse of anticorruption.

    QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ON ROMANIA’S ANTICORRUPTION IMPLOSION European Centre for Anticorruption and State Building www.againstcorruption.eu, www.romaniacurata.ro, http://sar.org.ro/?lang=en , www.integrity-index.org Abstract. Romania’s street protests of winter 2017 show the high sensitivity of young educated East Europeans to the problem of political corruption, but also the risks for the political use of anticorruption. Romanian charged or jailed the equivalent of a whole government in the last five years alone (eighteen ministers, two prime ministers, a former President, his brother, son-in-law, and so on) without any increase in trust in the political process and barely touching favoritism and diversion of public funds due to corruption. Instead, several elements of rule of law have come under siege. Core story On the evening of 31.01.2017, in its first month of government, the Romanian government chaired by Sorin Grindeanu adopted as a government ordinance a bill (Ordinance 13/2017) proposing amendments to Law no.268/2009 on the Criminal Code and Law 135/2010 on Criminal Code procedures. The government claimed that the changes were imposed by Romania’s overcrowding prisons and repeated cases lost at the European Court of Human Rights in Strasbourg, who had threatened with a larger fine if some prison reform would not have been implemented. Romania has the largest number of prisoners in other EU member countries from all EU MS, besides a nearly double occupancy by domestic prisoners in the country.

  • Romania 2015 Human Rights Report
    ROMANIA 2015 HUMAN RIGHTS REPORT EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Romania is a constitutional republic with a democratic, multiparty parliamentary system. The bicameral parliament consists of the Senate and the Chamber of Deputies, both elected by popular vote. In November 2014 the country held presidential elections in which electoral observers noted irregularities, including insufficient polling stations for the large diaspora community. The country held parliamentary elections in 2012, which observers generally considered to be without irregularities. Civilian authorities maintained effective control over the security forces. Major human rights problems included police and gendarme mistreatment and harassment of detainees and Roma. Government corruption remained a widespread problem. Systematic societal discrimination against Roma affected their access to adequate education, housing, health care, and employment opportunities. Other human rights problems included poor prison conditions and continued attempts by some political figures to compromise the independence of the judiciary. The government failed to take effective action to return Greek Catholic churches confiscated by the communist-era government. Personal and professional threats to journalists undermined media freedom. There were continued reports of violence and discrimination against women. There were some anti-Semitic acts and statements, and media continued to publish anti-Semitic articles. Anti-Semitic, racist, xenophobic, and nationalistic views continued to be disseminated via the internet. Government agencies provided inadequate assistance to persons with disabilities and neglected persons with disabilities in institutions. Societal discrimination againstLumeaJustitiei.ro lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and intersex (LGBTI) persons and individuals with HIV/AIDS, particularly children, remained problems. Employers subjected men, women, and children to labor trafficking in agriculture, construction, domestic service, hotels, and manufacturing.
