Adrian Păunescu: literary, journalistic and political activity
No full textThe article aims to give an overview of the whole range of literary, journalistic and political activities of Adrian Păunescu. Our endeavor is structured in five sections and constitutes a presentation of the poet’s life and literary activity, his publicizing and social-political involvement in the Romanian landscape, with a focus on the problematic and thematic of his poems. The article attempts a delimitation of the poetic work under the incidence of two great political periods, marked in its literary direction by the turning point represented by the 1989 Revolution, a decisive moment in terms of freedom of expression. In the first period we can distinguish a first stage, that of youthful creation, and a second, from which a new vision of poetry and the world emerges. We therefore examine the development of poetry, in two stages, in the period from the 1960s to the 1980s and that after the 1990s, from the perspective of censorship, the political influences of the communist regime and freedom of expression. We devote a separate section to the period marked by the emergence of the “Cenacl Flacăra”, a young and nonconformist cultural movement created by Adrian Păunescu as an ideal space to promote poetry on national and patriotic themes. We will highlight some information on Adrian Păunescu’s political activity and how his political objectives evolved in relation to the regime change
Illegal Moldovan migration to the european union
No full textThis article analyzes the illegal migration from Moldova into the EU countries. The main routes to the EU countries are through Romania, Ukraine, Turkey and other countries. Each route has its own specific features, such as transport availability, visa / visa free regimes, etc. The author researches illegal Moldovan migration patterns (“green zone” passage, fake ID passage, breaking of labour and residential laws of the receiving country, etc.). Much attention is also attributed to researching the activity of national actors and their cooperation, as well as organization and realization of illegal labour migration. An attempt to determine the scale and trends of illegal Moldovan labour migration is made, based on statistical data. The author also unravels the Moldovan counter-illegal migration policy.Consortium for Applied Research on International Migration (CARIM-East) is co-financed by the European University Institute and the European Unio
Children’s Album for Piano in the Works of MoldOvan Composers
No full textThe author of the article examines piano works dedicated to children written by Moldovan composers from the point of view of their use in the piano educational practice as children’s cycles (albums and suites consisting of piano miniatures). For many Moldovan composers (L. Gurov, S. Lobel, V. Rotaru, Z. Tkach, A. Mulyar, B. Dubossarsky, O. Negrutsa, G. Ciobanu, etc.) the work on piano miniatures was a kind of «creative laboratory» that preceded the appearance of larger works — suites, sonatas, concertos, symphonies, etc.
The priorities in the children’s piano works of Moldovan authors are contrasting in style: slow lyrical pieces (Lullaby, Doina, Prelude, Song, Poem, etc.) and mobile miniatures (Jock, Batuta, Ostinato, Comic, Scherzo, etc.) with dance or scherzo-humor character. These plays can greatly enrich the repertoire of children’s music schools and lyceums, as they are distinguished by Moldovan color, national and genre properties, peculiarity of the figurative-emotional system and the certainty of technical tasks
DYNAMICS AND SPECIFICS OF CZECH-MOLDOVAN RELATIONS IN 1993–2021
No full textThe article analyzes the dynamics of Czech-Moldovan relations in the period from 1993
to 2021. The general chronological analysis is put into the context of regional trends in Central Europe and Eastern Europe, as well as the distinctive features of the Czech Republic’s foreign policy
and their changes over time. The article is divided into three parts corresponding to the phases of
the Czech-Moldovan political interaction: passivity in the 1990s, sharp activation in the period
2004–2014 and stagnation in the second half of the 2010s. The article pays special attention to the
humanitarian aspects of political interaction, which became the key area of cooperation in the
analyzed period. The author considers the influence of various factors on the changing nature of
interaction, identifies general trends that illustrate the specifics of Czech-Moldovan relations
Diversification trends in Moldovan international migration: evidence from Czechia and Italy
No full textThis contribution advances knowledge of contemporary Moldovan migration and is the first comparative description of the situation of Moldovans in Czechia and Italy. Our specific objective is to review evidence about how the concept of the migration-development nexus applies to the Moldovan situation. In the absence of comparable primary data on Moldovan migration our research design uses mixed methods and triangulates data from Moldova and across the main destinations for Moldovan migration, including Italy and Czechia. In addition to confirming prior research on the significance of remittances to the Moldovan economy since 1991, we report three additional findings. First, Moldovan migrants, particularly women who may work as domestic workers are often invisible and undercounted. Second, Moldovan migration is rapidly diversifying, with new destinations, selectivities, and forms and modes of mobility. Third, the global economic recession of 2008 had different implications for Moldovan migration patterns to and from Czechia and Italy. We conclude with a specific call for research that extends the migration-development nexus by examining social remittances and the mobility and labour strategies of Moldovan family reunifiers. The paper also argues for availability of robust data that would allow comparative analysis of international migration and could better support evidence-based debates about migration
The transition of Moldovan Vernacular Residential Architecture in the XIX century
No full textStarting with the 14th century, Principality of Moldova inhabited the territories between Nistru River, the Black sea, Danube and the Carpathian Mountains. This location, although having well-delimited natural borders, represented the intersection of multiple spheres of influence such as the intersection between the Ottoman Empire and the European Monarchies, Islam and Christianity etc.Since 1504 Moldova has been in a decline which led to its occupation under Ottoman rule, which was followed by ruthless oppressions of the state in terms of law, economy and rule. Nevertheless, the harshest oppression was experienced under the Russian occupation. With the treaty of Bucharest in 1812, the territory of Moldova is ruptured in two regions – Basarabia which was ceded to the Russian Empire, and Moldova that stayed under Ottoman occupation for 50 more years. This paper aims to shed light in the transition of vernacular residential architecture from Basarabia under the denationalization policies established by the Russian Empire. This will be followed by a comparative study with the architectural development of the unoccupied region of Moldova. The research question is posed: What are the characteristics of the Moldovan vernacular architecture in Basarabia and how did it change in the 19th century in comparison with the Non-occupied region of Moldova ? The content of the research starts with a brief text explaining the lay of the land, internal/external factors that influenced Moldovan society, culture and architecture. The historical descriptive chapter is followed by an extensive description on the typical architecture of the residences in rural regions and their building technology. The chapter would subsequently describe the local residential typologies in terms of space and area.The research further broadens into two chapters explaining the traditional ornamentation and dimensions/structure subsequently. This allows a broader overview into the similarities, identities and differences of the minorities that inhabited the land that is described in the next chapter - Regional and Ethnic characteristics of Moldovan residential vernacular architecture.To answer the last part of the research question, comparative study is presented in the conclusion chapter of the research, it simultaneously leads to more questions that this research managed to tackle and prospects of study. The conclusion of this research states that although the local population met little to no interaction between West and East Moldova (Basarabia) their architectural identities stayed the same in terms of components and ornamentics. It is of course important to underline that while the occidental part of Moldova developed further its decorative crafts, the oriental one saw multiple changes due to the new minorities that were forced into the province.AR2A011Architectural History ThesisArchitecture, Urbanism and Building Science
The needs of Moldovan diaspora through the prism of Maslow’s Hierarchy
No full textPublicat in: International Scientific Conference “Classical and Innovative Approaches in Contemporary Economic Thought: Considerations regarding the quality of life in the context of a changing Europe”, 2nd Edition (May 27, 2016) / Editorial Board: Elina BENEA-POPUȘOI [et al.]; Organisational Committee: Elina BENEA-POPUȘOI [et al.]. – Chisinau: ASEM 2016. – 176 p. ISBN 978-9975-75-844-4; ISBN 978-9975-75-845-1 (PDF) (pag. 168-174)One of the important effects of migration for the entire world is the creation of diasporas abroad. The creation of the Moldovan diaspora represents a relatively new process. This article presents the evolution of the needs of the Moldovan diaspora through the prism of Maslow’s hierarchy as well as the ways in which these basic needs along with the self-fulfilment needs can be satisfied. The author also describes the evolution of the needs of the Moldovan diaspora throughout the seven editions of the Congress of the Moldovan Diaspora, the strengths, the aspects requiring improvement and the suggestions that would help the members of the diaspora meet their aspirations and goals
Transforming the old into a foundation for the new - lessons of the Moldova ARIA Project
No full textThis paper is a case study of what is recognized as one of the more successful projects in any country in the Europe and Central Asia region, not to mention in the poorest country of the region-Moldova. The ARIA project shows new ways to attack some of the most intractable problems of private sector development in Europe and Central Asia: how to facilitate reorganization and liquidation bankruptcies; how to promote small and medium enterprise spin-offs and new start-ups; and how to promote new learning at the enterprise level, both in the form of"Marshall Plan"programs with more advanced post-socialist countries, as well as continuous improvement programs (such as those adapted from Japanese programs). The prime mover for these programs is the quasi-public restructuring agency, ARIA, which was established as part of the Moldova Private Sector Development I loan. ARIA was structured to try to combine private sector entrepreneurship with a public function in the process of restructuring and bankruptcy. The study tries to account for the strategies and innovations that lead to results. And it tries to connect the ARIA strategy to past development literature by viewing the study through Albert Hirschman's work on social learning and change.Enterprise Development&Reform,Public Health Promotion,Banks&Banking Reform,Health Monitoring&Evaluation,Small Scale Enterprise,Health Monitoring&Evaluation,Banks&Banking Reform,Small Scale Enterprise,Microfinance,Private Participation in Infrastructure
THE IMAGE OF THE CUCKOO IN THE MOLDOVAN SONG FOLKLORE
No full textStudying the ornithological morphology images of the traditional culture of different nations is one of the directions of modern ethnomusicology. In this article the author considers the image of the cuckoo in the Moldovan folklore tradition on the example of the analysis of a number of song texts. As material for research, were used the samples of song folklore, collected during field expedition work, presented in a comparative analysis of the poetic texts with the famous songs from the earlier published folklore collections (collections by Z. Tkaci, C. Rusnac, and A. Kriminsky). As a result, there is established the prevalence of motifs of loneliness, disorder of life connected with the image of this bird. The author sees this peculiarity classifying the cuckoo to a masculine gender (in the Romanian language), but not to woman’s (in the Russian language)
