The conference was organised in the context of Re- search Field 01 “Museums & Identity in History and Contemporane- ity” led by Professor Chris Whitehead at Newcastle University within the European project MeLa-European Museums in an age of migrations. MeLa is a four-year interdisciplinary research project funded in 2011 by the European Commission under the Socio-economic Sciences and Humanities Programme (Seventh Framework Programme). Adopting the notion of “migration” as a paradigm of the contemporary global and multicultural world, MeLa reflects on the role of museums and heritage in the twenty-first century. The main objective of the MeLa project is to define innovative museum practices that reflect the challenges of the con- temporary processes of globalisation, mobility and migration. As people, objects, knowledge and information move at increasingly high rates, a sharper awareness of an inclusive European identity is needed to facili- tate mutual understanding and social cohesion. MeLa aims at empower- ing museums spaces, practices and policies with the task of building this identity. MeLa involves nine European partners—universities, museums, research institutes and a company—who will lead six Research Fields (RFs) with a collaborative approach. The purpose of this book is to report on the themes debated at the conference. Introduction 10 — mela project: “placing” europe in the museum mela project: “placing” europe in the museum — 11 Introduction The imperatives surrounding the museum representation of place have shifted from the late eighteenth century to today. This is in part because the political significance of place itself has changed and continues to change at all scales, from local, civic, regional to national and suprana- tional. At the same time, recognition of changes in population flows, migration patterns and demographic movement now underscore both cultural and political practice, be it in the accommodation of “diversity” in cultural and social policy, scholarly explorations of hybridity or in state immigration controls. These issues, taken historically, have particular sig- nificance for contemporary understandings of the role of place in indi- vidual, collective and state notions of society in the EU, in member states and in other European countries. How do European museums present societies as bound to, or enabled by, place and places? Or as having roots in places and/or taking routes from, to and through places? What car- tographical groupings, borders, knowledges (e.g. archaeological, ethno- graphic etc.) and traversals order and organise populations into societies in the museum? What is the metaphorical “place” of place in European museums now, what does this say about identities? To invert these questions, we might ask what happens or what can hap- pen, when the “peoples” and “places” implicated in, and at least to some extent constructed in, museum representation shift, change, multiply, fragment and/or move? What happens when the museum desire for fix- ity is disrupted by new sensibilities towards population flows, multiple heritages and the shifting territories of geopolitical places? Should mu- seums’ representational practices change? If so how? What are the new dimensions of identity construction and production in museums whose physical place is fixed, but whose audiences, with their changing heritages previous page — and cultures, are not? Last but not least, what are the implications of such Destination X, Museum questions and issues for practice (curatorial, political, architectural etc.) of World Cultures, and for visitors and visiting? Gothenburg. 12 — mela project: “placing” europe in the museum This short volume comprises a number of situated reflections on these questions and themes and represents the proceedings of the international conference “Placing” Europe in the Museum: people(s), places, identities, held at Newcastle University in September 2012. This was the first in a series of events intended to complement and inform research within the MeLa consortium (http://www.mela-project.eu/). The papers published here represent a range of perspectives, practices and places. Extending and enriching Habermasian ideas of the communicative action in the public sphere, Luczewski and Maslanka contrast sites of memory (such as museums and heritage sites) in Germany and Poland. The authors attend to the complexities of representing national identity positions and alterity while remembering difficult histories pertaining to the effects and experiences of Nazism and Communism. Luczewski and Maslanka’s paper is in dialogue with Cadot’s essay on the place of mu- seums within the grand narration of the history of the European Union, and in particular the disruptive significance of Central and Eastern Eu- ropean countries as “ghosts” within the narrative of freedom and progress. Meanwhile, Adina Huma’s exploration of an Eastern European state cur- rently outwith the European Union—Moldova—illustrates the complex role of museums in positioning borders and recasting the geographical spaces for nationing and nationalism. Tietmeyer gives a curator’s account of the tensions which arise when seeking to represent European culture through stories of cultural en- counter, which force questions around the maintenance of entrenched identities and the assimilation of others. In a related account of similar tensions Ülker explores the play of tolerance and intolerance in politi- cal discourse and museum representations of immigrant communities in Germany, such as the Turkish guestworker labour force and their de- scendants. The paper draws on and contributes to a significant debate on notions of tolerance led by scholars like Wendy Brown and Slavoj Žižek, and problematises tolerance as an ideal and as a practise which perpetu- ates power relationships between the majority community and its others. Little reflects here on the development of a new permanent gallery—The Making of Modern Tyneside—at Newcastle upon Tyne’s Discovery Mu- seum, situated in the North East of England. Tyneside is a place with a significant population of migrants and descendants of migrants, but this is not well known or represented. Moreover, according to one survey negative feelings towards Black and Minority Ethnic (BME) groups are reportedly higher

  • The Republic of Budjak: Next in Line?
    (https://neweasterneurope.eu/) The Republic of Budjak: Next in line? The idea of the Republic of Budjak appeared at the turn of the 1980s and 1990s within the process of a national awakening triggered by perestroika. The republic was supposed to include the localities where Gagauzians and Bulgarians lived in southern Moldova and, in another variant, were also in the neighboring southern part of the Ukrainian Odesa region. No such scenario was realised, however Gagauzians from Moldova managed to create their (separatist) republic that existed till 1994 when their region was granted autonomous status within a unitary state. From time to time, the idea of the Republic of Budjak had returned. January 2, 2015 - Marcin Kosienkowski (https://neweasterneurope.eu/post-author/marcin-kosienkowski/) - Articles and Commentary (https://neweasterneurope.eu/category/articles-and-commentary-50/) Crucially, it was highlighted in a November 2014 report (http://www.economist.com/news/europe/21637415-little-known-place- interests-both-ukraine-and-russia-towards-unknown-region?fsrc=scn/tw_ec/towards_the_unknown_region) by Kyiv-based “Da Vinci AG” Analytic Group because of the Russian-Ukrainian conict, attracting the attention of some mainstream newspapers such as Nezavisimaya gazeta (http://www.ng.ru/cis/2014-11-27/1_kiev.html) and The Economist (http://www.economist.com/news/europe/21637415-little-known-place-interests-both-ukraine-and-russia-towards-unknown-region? fsrc=scn/tw_ec/towards_the_unknown_region). Bessarabia spring of 2015 The “Da Vinci AG” Analytic Group warns in its report that the Republic of Budjak could be established in the spring of 2015. It would be rather called the Bessarabian People’s Republic, alluding to the already existing peoples’ republics of Donetsk and Luhansk, and it would not be limited just to Gagauzians and Bulgarians, encompassing the whole southern part of the Odesa region.

Washington, DC December 17, 2010 Copyright 2010 by Andrew Robarts All Rights Reserved ii A PLAGUE ON BOTH HOUSES?: POPULATION MOVEMENTS AND THE SPREAD OF DISEASE ACROSS THE OTTOMAN-RUSSIAN BLACK SEA FRONTIER, 1768-1830S Andrew Robarts, M.S.F.S. Dissertation Advisor: Catherine Evtuhov, Ph. D. ABSTRACT Based upon a reading of Ottoman, Russian, and Bulgarian archival documents, this dissertation examines the response by the Ottoman and Russian states to the accelerated pace of migration and spread of disease in the Black Sea region from the outbreak of the Russo-Ottoman War of 1768-1774 to the signing of the Treaty of Hünkar Iskelesi in 1833. Building upon introductory chapters on the Russian-Ottoman Black Sea frontier and a case study of Bulgarian population movements between the Russian and Ottoman Empires, this dissertation analyzes Russian and Ottoman migration and settlement policies, the spread of epidemic diseases (plague and cholera) in the Black Sea region, the construction of quarantines and the implementation of travel document regimes. The role and position of the Danubian Principalities of Moldavia and Wallachia as the “middle ground” between the Ottoman and Russian Empires

The paper focuses on Budjak’s status after the Treaty of Bucharest, dated 1812. Ottomans abandoned Bessarabia to Russia with this treaty. Then, Russia seperated Budjak Region from Bessarabia. Before the treaty, both of them had been a whole with the name of Bessarabia. According to Ottoman archive documents, Ottoman Empire dealt with the demografic movements and security problems of Budjak after the treaty. The subject of this study is Ottoman and Russian officials’ diplomatic negotiations on these problems.
