NARRATIONS, MEMORY, CONTEXTS the conference celebrating the centenary of the Treaty of Trianon Poznan, 8–9 October 2020. The conference will be held online. ABSTRACTS DR HAB . GRZEBORZ BUBAK Jagiellonian University in Cracow, Institute of Linguistics and Translation Studies (Uniwersytet Jagielloński, Instytut Językoznawstwa i Przekładoznawstwa, Kraków ) The Treaty of Trianon and its later consequences in Hungarian fictional film (Traktat z Trianon i jego późniejsze konsekwencje w węgierskim filmie fabularnym ) Historical motifs have marked their presence in Hungarian film almost since the very beginning, as a result of a succession of dramatic events affecting a generation after generation of Hungarians. Filmmakers drew upon the past whenever the opportunity arose. Sometimes it was revisiting the painful experiences of the past or accounting for painful memories. At other times it was a historical narrative never brought before an audience before, for political reasons. Lastly, at times it was the tide of the moment, such as the round anniversary of a historical event. The revolution of 1956, erased by Kádár from the collective memory, the years of Stalinist terror, the sensitive Jewish issue and recently the fates of former prisoners of war returning from the USSR have all found their place in Hungarian film. Is this also the case with topics relating to the 1920 Treaty of Trianon and its traumatizing provisions regarded as one of the most painful dates in Hungarian history? Neither the tragic experience handed down through generations nor the sense of injustice are going away. This text will attempt to answer the question of whether elements relating to Trianon and its consequences for the Hungarian state can be found in Hungarian film productions.

    Refugee Review Tribunal AUSTRALIA RRT RESEARCH RESPONSE Research Response Number: IND31233 Country: India Date: 2 February 2007 Keywords: India – Goa – Evangelical Christians – Shiv Sena – RSS – Jamat-e-Islami This response was prepared by the Country Research Section of the Refugee Review Tribunal (RRT) after researching publicly accessible information currently available to the RRT within time constraints. This response is not, and does not purport to be, conclusive as to the merit of any particular claim to refugee status or asylum. Questions 1. What is the activity of the Bajrang Dal, Jamaat -E-Islam, Rashtriya Swayam Sevak and Shiv Sena against evangelical Christians in Goa? 2. What difficulties do evangelical Christians face in Goa? 3. Would the police in Goa condone and/or be involved in discrimination / persecution against evangelical Christians in Goa by these groups? RESPONSE 1. What is the activity of the above mentioned four groups against evangelical Christians in Goa? 2. What difficulties do evangelical Christians face in Goa? 3. Would the police in Goa condone and/or be involved in discrimination / persecution against evangelical Christians in Goa by these groups? The state of Goa has a significant Christian population. According to the 2001 India census, Goa has a Christian population of 359,568 on a total population of 1,347,668 (there are 886,551 Hindus and 92,210 Muslims). Christianity, and the Catholic Church in particular, has played a significant role in Goa’s history and since Goa’s 1962 integration into the Indian Union this has continued to be the case.
