This article aims to present the concepts of current European Union's policy towards the Roma, starting with its origins up until recent years, as well as briefly diagnose the involvement of the EU's ...institutions in developing and implementing programs and guidelines for national policies towards the Roma people in member states. This research paper also analyzes to which degree the activities of the European Union, with special emphasis on the period from 2011, positively influences the level of inclusion and integration of the Roma people into mainstream societies of EU member states. Finally, this article attempts to evaluate the results of the implementation of the above-mentioned policy as well as to predict the challenges which may arise in case of continuation of activities in this area.
Il contributo indaga un particolare aspetto del concetto di confine relativamente al mondo femminile romano: per le donne romane il limen, la soglia della loro dimora, è idealmente e culturalmente il ...loro limes, il confine oltre il quale la loro azione non può più essere libera, ma è controllata secondo canoni etici precisi che impediscono alle donne di partecipare alla vita politica oppure di muoversi liberamente al di fuori dell'Urbs. Attraverso l'analisi di testi letterari, scelti tra l'età repubblicana e augustea e oltre, si individuano locuzioni come limen, domi, intra vs. extra, ultra che marcano con tutta evidenza questa marginalità imposta dal mos maiorum. La trasgressione di questi limiti implica un abdicare ai valori-guida tradizionali femminili, come la modestia e la pudicizia e quindi incrina l'onore femminile, per cui in conclusione si analizza a fondo l'esemplare caso-limite di Giulia maggiore esiliata dal padre Augusto per un'accusa di comportamento immorale.
ABSTRACT - In the mid-nineteenth century, Genoa had a very lively musical life which shared the prevailing romantic climate in Europe and Italy In this cultural context the figure of Carlo Andrea ...Gambini (1819-1865) stands out. A comparison of the French text and its Italian translation highlights several variants, not devoid of ideological implications regarding the historical image of Columbus, which was and still is highly controversial. 1. Ieri sera adunque radunai una cinquantina di amici e di intelligent! fra" quali contavansi alcuni maestri e si eseguirono cinque pezzi delľ opera il Colombo. Questi pezzi erano i due finali, duc duetti, ľ aria del soprano con cori.15 Un accurata recensione della soirée usci alcuni giorni dopo sulľ«Espero» firmata dalla competente penna delľamico Giuseppe Novella: Il largo e la stretta del finale primo con cori, ľ aria del soprano pure con cori, il duetto a soprano e basso e il gran concertato finale secondo, furono i pezzi del dr amma suddetto che il Gambini offerse al giudizio, o per dir meglio alľammirazione de" dotti nelľarte, i quali unanimi resero giustizia al merito del giovane compositore ammirando sovrattutto la novità e sublimità de' concetti di cui è sfarzosamente cosparsa la sua musica molto ben servita dalla ricchezza e dalla robustezza deli'armonia, la quale si sarebbe viemmaggiormente gustata se invece delľaccompagnamento del solo piano-forte ci fosse stato possibile il sentirla eseguita da una buona e ben regolata orchestra... Persone intelligent! che hanno udito il lavoro assicurano che sará di molto effetto avendo ľ autore acconciamente introdotto nella Marcia alcuni Trio, uno alla spagnuola (Tempo di Bolero), ľaltro alľlndiana, accompagnato da Campanelli o sistri, ed il terzo
The author writes about growing up with her complex and enigmatic immigrant father, who lived many years as a stigmatized other, a Russian Jew in northern China. She focuses on the impact this ...personal family history has on her treatment with a female Romani patient from Eastern Europe, a more recent immigrant, who also lived many years as a stigmatized other. The author differentiates between the experience of one-time immigrants and migrants, the latter being haunted by generations of dislocation, which causes them to question their fundamental sense of safety and belonging. The author discusses the ways the personal and professional threads become interwoven in the work, impacting the bi-directional conscious and unconscious flow of the treatment. Together patient and analyst build toward a mutually transformative moment, following a clinical impasse.
This article presents a close reading of the Romani characters and their actions in five stories by Viennese Romani writer and activist Samuel Mago and in two stories by his brother, Hungarian ...award-winning journalist Károly Mágó, in their bilingual Romani and German collection glücksmacher – e baxt romani. Brief biographies and an outline of the history of Roma and antiziganism in Austria provide background to textual analysis that focuses on how characters in the stories engender baxt/“Glück,” which means both happiness and luck. This dual meaning has inspired philosophical, psychological, economic, and anthropological studies, but literary scholars have rarely examined the concept in texts by Roma. For the protagonists in the brothers’ stories, happiness and luck become based less on monetary fortunes than on other means to live and survive in dark times of persecution and discrimination. The characters’ decisions unveil perceptions of baxt that rely largely on acquiring food, preserving and passing down family heirlooms, receiving an education, and freeing oneself and one’s family from persecution.
Although intergroup friendships have been shown to reduce prejudice, little research has considered whether interventions fostering intergroup friendship would be effective in highly prejudicial ...contexts. We conducted a quasi‐experiment (N = 61) to test whether a contact‐based intervention based on intergroup friendship could reduce bias against Roma people among non‐Roma Hungarians. Participants in the contact condition engaged in a face‐to‐face interaction with a Roma person, and responded to questions involving mutual self‐disclosure. Through pre‐ and post‐test questionnaires, we observed significant positive change in attitudes and contact intentions among participants in the contact condition, while these effects were not observed among participants in the control condition. Positive change was moderated by perceived institutional norms, which corroborates the potential of contact‐based interventions.
Gianpiero Cavalleri is Associate Professor of Human Genetics at the Department of Molecular and Cellular Therapeutics at the Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland and is the lead author of a 2017 ...study into the genetic structure of the Irish Traveller community. The study provided an estimate of when Irish Travellers split from the ‘settled' population in Ireland. This population-based genetic research project involved researchers from the Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland, University College Dublin, the University of Edinburgh and the Hebrew University of Jerusalem and looked into the history and structure of the Traveller population in the context of ‘settled' Irish as well as neighbouring European and Roma Gypsy groups. A full-text version of the study first published in the journal Scientific Reports https://epubs.rcsi.ie/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?referer=https://www.google.ie/&httpsredir=1&article=1100&context=mctart. This interview took place at RCSI on Tuesday 21st November 2017.
