  • Leadership Strategies in Promoting the Image of the Mayors on the Web- Sites of Sector Town Halls and of Bucharest City Hall
    LEADERSHIP STRATEGIES IN PROMOTING THE IMAGE OF THE MAYORS ON THE WEB- SITES OF SECTOR TOWN HALLS AND OF BUCHAREST CITY HALL Viorica PĂUŞ Viorica PĂUŞ Professor, Department of Cultural Anthropology and Communication, Faculty of Journalism and Mass Communication, University of Bucharest, Bucharest, Romania Tel.: 004-021-318.15.15 E-mail: [email protected] Abstract The research deals with the leadership strategies used by the mayors of the six sectors and the General Mayor of Bucharest in order to represent and promote the organizational image and their own image. The success, performance and competitiveness of sector town halls and Bu- charest City Hall also depend on the quality of leadership and the leaders’ ability to use appro- priate, attractive and customized online commu- nication strategies in order to inform the citizens and achieve their electoral goals. This research has the following objectives: (a) to identify the online strategies used by the seven mayors-leaders; (b) to identify the sa- lience of tactics used by the seven mayors; (c) to identify the ethos categories within the mayors’ online messages. Keywords: local public administration, may- or, open leadership, communication, information, website, effi ciency. Transylvanian Review of Administrative Sciences, No. 47 E/2016, pp. 146-163 146 1. Introduction Leadership should not be strictly associated with multinational corporations and it should not exclusively refer to the employer-employee relationship. Mayors are a special category of leaders. Besides their internal communication within the city or town halls, they are elected by citizens and thus they should build solid relationships with the inhabitants as well.

Dincolo de zgomotul de fond afonic al feluritelor dispute se desprinde însă ceea ce a marcat ultima parte a anului: modul în care un incident, precum cel al in- cendiului de la clubul „Colectiv”, s-a repercutat asupra evoluţiilor politice, într-un scenariu desprins parcă din „Scrisoarea pierdută” a lui Caragiale: cum din con- fruntarea dintre PSD-ul aflat la guvernare şi PNL-ul dor- nic să-i ia locul cât mai curând a triumfat acest Dandanache XXI – guvernul Tehnocrat al lui Cioloş. Semnificaţia profundă a evenimentului constă în inca- pacitatea actorilor politici de a determina acele mutaţii pe care societatea le cere şi abandonul laş în faţa imix- tiunilor externe în cursul proceselor interne.

  • Report 2021, No. 9
    News Agency on Conservative Europe Report 2021, No. 9. Report on conservative and right wing Europe 20th May, 2021 GERMANY 1. tichyseinblick.de (translated, original by Roland Tichy, 19.04.2021) Baerbock is the green candidate for chancellor - and no other surprises It became clear: Now the Greens are competing with Annalena Baerbock. We are experiencing an epochal change in Germany, triggered by the quiet collapse of the Union and the FDP. It is no surprise that Annalena Baerbock became the Greens' candidate for chancellor; the time of men in the new, green painted world is up. They are accessories without a chance; and you only have to look at the Habecks of this world, then you know why: While the alpha males in the Union tear each other apart, the males in the greens are modest and flexible. Competence has long ceased to be a factor in the new world, in which feeling and then again feeling and then again feeling decide. It's about identity. If at some point Baerbock's post 2 should become vacant again, then certainly only one PoC * has the chance - People of Color, female. It's over, you machos like Jürgen Trittin or Joschka Fischer; you have made the greens great and superfluous. Enjoy retirement, it will be terrible. Not for you, green grandpas. Media cheers open It is also no surprise that the media, ARD and ZDF ahead, have opened the jubilation gates. It was hinted at. Baerbock fits too well into the scheme with which one believes in the sheltered workshops of fee-financed television that one can cope with the future.

  • 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.

  • “Keeping It Behind Closed Doors”: Discursive Representations of the (Un)Traditional Family in Romania
    “KEEPING IT BEHIND CLOSED DOORS”: DISCURSIVE REPRESENTATIONS OF THE (UN)TRADITIONAL FAMILY IN ROMANIA By Blanka Barabás Submitted to Central European University Department of Gender Studies In partial fulfillment for the degree of Master of Arts in Critical Gender Studies. Supervisor: Erzsébet Barát Second Reader: Elissa Helms CEU eTD Collection Budapest, Hungary 2019 ABSTRACT As a result of a citizens’ initiative led by the fundamentalist religious organization Coalition for Family, on October 6 and 7, 2018, a Referendum was held in Romania on the constitutional redefinition of the family as the union between a woman and a man instead of the previous union between spouses formulation. The thesis relies on the theoretical framework of right-wing populism (Wodak 2015) defined as a political ideology with its own form and content “that rejects existing political consensus and usually combines laissez-faire liberalism and anti- elitism” (Wodak 2015: 32) making an appeal to the common people considered to be quasi- homogenous. The thesis provides a critical discourse analysis of the pro- and anti-Referendum discourses that were constructed on social media by analyzing the contents shared by 7 Facebook pages in total in the month leading up to the Referendum. The main argument of thesis is that the mechanisms of right-wing populism (including a rhetoric of fear) can be identified in the pro-, and even the anti-Referendum discourse, although the Referendum itself was not initiated by a political party, but by the Coalition for Family organization, on the basis of fundamentalist religious values, who had the continuous support of the Orthodox Church.

Drama from the Club „Colectiv” and the Fall of Ponta Government Cristina Gelana* * Corresponding author: Cristina Gelan, [email protected] aLecturer PhD, Faculty of Letters, “Ovidius” University, University Street, no. 1, Constanta, Romania, [email protected], +40 721 650 457 Abstract http://dx.doi.org/10.15405/epsbs.2016.09.49 The paper that we propose aims a constructivist analysis about persuasive effects that media can cause in the public space by interpreting and reconstructing of the social events. The analysis is based on a triangular grille, where the structural, communicational and interactional dimensions contribute to illustrate the ways in which media facilitate the formation of social representations, creating certain types of behaviour and determining specific actions. Moreover talk about a media representation of certain events that generate criteria to assess situations, determine judgments to be applied to these events and contribute to create collective action. The applied part of the paper aims to analyse the social context in which had held the fall of Ponta Government, on November 4, 2015, in the context in which a few days had gone from the drama which happened in the Club “Colectiv”, on October 30, 2015. The analysis focuses on the effects of framing and those of priming on the means of mass communication have produced by the coverage of events related to this collective drama. © 2016 Published by Future Academy www.FutureAcademy.org.uk Keywords: Framing; priming; the collective drama; sociology of media; persuasive effects.
