Zmiany przestrzeni symbolicznej

Author(s): Péter Portörö / Language(s): Polish Issue: 03/2014

The naming and renaming of public places/spaces has been playing a substantial role in relation to cultural, political symbols. A process of renaming public squares and streets has arisen in Hungary during recent years, akin to the political changes of 1989-1990. This process is primarily generated by right-wing parties, seeking connections with the conservative historical ideology of the period preceding the Second World War. It can also be seen as a process of eliminating the remains of socialism. After the change in government, for various reasons, a removal of “surviving” persons or concepts began. The current renaming process also symbolizes the economic, political and cultural preferences of the new establishment. After changes in the law after the governmental elections of 2010, new legal regulations provided the local authorities with the opportunity to request expert opinions from the Hungarian Academy of Sciences to determine if a denomination can stay or if should it disappear.

Auf dem Weg ins utopielose Jahrhundert

Auf dem Weg ins utopielose Jahrhundert

Author(s): Cornelia Klinger / Language(s): German Issue: 19/1999

Es soll hier nicht von der Zukunft die Rede sein und keine Voraussage gemacht werden, ob und welche Art von Utopien im Verlauf des 21. Jahrhunderts entstehen könnten. Und obwohl der Titel es nahelegt, soll erst recht nicht behauptet werden, dass in den vor uns liegenden hundert Jahren keinerlei utopische Ideen entwickelt werden könnten. Das wäre vermessen.

Die Orange Revolution

Die Orange Revolution

Author(s): Timothy Garton Ash,Timothy Snyder / Language(s): German Issue: 29/2005

Im vergangenen Herbst prägte sich die Ukraine zum ersten Mal in ihrer Geschichte im politischen Bewusstsein der Weltöffentlichkeit ein. In einer Volksbewegung, die als »Orange Revolution« bekannt wurde, versammelten sich auf dem Unabhängigkeitsplatz in Kiew bei frostigen Temperaturen große Menschenmassen, die orangefarbene Schals trugen, und forderten eine faire Präsidentschaftswahl. Sie haben gesiegt. Unter ihrem neuen Präsidenten Viktor Juschtschenko kann die Ukraine Kurs auf die von ihm und seinen Mitstreitern erhoffte funktionierende Demokratie und Marktwirtschaft auf rechtsstaatlicher Basis und auf eine Mitgliedschaft in der Europäischen Union nehmen.

National Role in Turkish Foreign Policy: Relations with Kurdish Regional Government of Iraq

National Role in Turkish Foreign Policy: Relations with Kurdish Regional Government of Iraq

Author(s): Özüm Sezin Uzun / Language(s): English Issue: 1/2013

Turkey's foreign policy has been in a state of change since the AKP (Justice and Development Party) government came into power in 2002. Regarding the internal and external factors, this article argues that the changes in identification national role have been one the factors that led Turkey to conduct a new pro-active foreign policy. Turkey has perceived duties and/or responsibilities for itself in its relations with other states in the regions to which Turkey feels deep-rooted historical, cultural and religious ties. The outcomes of this change have been observable in the relations between Turkey and the Kurdish Regional Government (KRG) in the north of Iraq, which evolved from conflictual to cooperative relations since 2008.

The Gulf War - A Clash of Cultures and Interests

The Gulf War - A Clash of Cultures and Interests

Author(s): Bertalan Kozma / Language(s): English Issue: 1/2013

The whole world kept their eyes on the events unfolding in the Middle East in 1990. Saddam Hussein launched his massive forces against Kuwait and soon got hold of the small, but extremely rich state, claiming it had always belonged to Iraq. The response came in the form of a state-of-the-art military offensive from the United Nations coalition forces. The Gulf War was the first fully televised and broadcast war in history, the public could follow the events live and breaking. My paper shall explore the true reasons behind this attack, bringing forth the infamous Saddam Hussein .April Glaspie meeting (ambassador to the USA in Iraq), in which she made misleading remarks and the several failed attempts at negotiation to prevent the war, all refused by the United States. My argument will hypothesize that it was in the core interest of the USA to strike militarily in order to maintain the balance of power in the Middle East thus providing a clearer picture between the two opposing opinions as per the cause of the Gulf War: protecting Kuwait from the dictator and attempting to gain full control over the vast oil reserves of Kuwait. Since, it is not all black and white.

Geopolitika Latin-Amerikában

Geopolitika Latin-Amerikában

Author(s): István Szilágyi / Language(s): Hungarian Issue: 2/2013

Geopolitics as a multidisciplinary branch of social science and as a theory of foreign policy appeared on the Latin-American continent in the second half of the 1920s. The main features they include are the next: aggressive approach to the space, the continental adaption of the organic state-theory elaborated by Ratzel and Kjellen, moreover, the developed geopolitical theory was thought to be converted into practice via the growing role of the army. The armed forces and their various institutions became the scientific centre of elaborating the new attitude to the international relations as a theory. When the army assumed the political power, however, it was given an opportunity to put these theories into practice. On the Latin-American continent the geopolitical schools with important theoretical background were established in Argentina, Brazil and Chile. In this study we introduce the Brazilian geopolitical theory and practice elaborated in the Supreme Military Academy and the Chilean geopolitical theory and practice established by generals Ramon Cañas Montalva and Augusto Pinochet.

Influenţa religiei în procesul de europenizare a Balcanilor de Vest

Author(s): Emilia Nicoleta Schiop / Language(s): Romanian Issue: 10/2017

The last major event, the Brexit, urges European leaders to keep cohesion between the member states and the enlargement for East, which was postponed, can be accomplished in the future. Serbia, Montenegro, The Former Republic of Macedonia are examples of countries who started the admission negotiations. Croatia is part of the European Union since 2013. The stability for this part of the continent is essential for the EU security and this can be settled by respecting the fundamental norms. In this process, religion plays an important role. It can influence the systems (directly or indirectly) and the mentality of the population. Communism also left an influence, because that system lasted tor a long time. In addition, this geographical area has ethnic and religious conflicts between Christians and Muslims deeply rooted in history (eg. Kosovo problem, Srebrenica massacre etc.). Montenegro has potential in this way, after Macedonia and Serbia, which have already lead most of the negotiation chapters to an advanced stage. Bosnia, Herzegovina and Albania are at the beginning. Accession negotiations developing in the Western Balkans is a topical subject. European Commission’s documents are public. There are also governmental documents which indicate the progress of the accession negotiations. There is no national or international case study, containing all the available information about the accession (there is different information from different sources). Also, there is no interpretation of the negotiation chapters with the stucture of position papers in European negotiations. There aregaps in the documents about the national interpretation from the Western Balkans states to align with European standards. This study will try to find the connection between the religious conflicts in Western Balkans states and their future accession (also by analyzing the negotiation chapters).

Decommunization of Symbolic Urban Space of Ukraine’s Megalopolises: Effective Local Government Capacity Building

Author(s): Natalia Rotar / Language(s): English Issue: 1/2020

The decommunization of urban symbolic space through the renaming of streets and settlements commemorating communist figures (toponymic remapping) has become a characteristic feature of the decommunization process across Eastern Europe. This paper provides an overview of the vigorous discussions over the toponymic remapping of urban space in the Ukrainian megalopolises of Kyiv, Kharkiv, Dnipro and Odesa. These case studies illustrate the important role of symbolic efficacy in consolidating Ukrainian society around the idea of democracy and the country’s aspirations for European integration. The main focus of our research was to analyse the actions taken to fulfil Ukraine’s decommunization laws, particularly with regard to the renaming of streets and settlements. We focus on the actions taken by local governments, the content of public debates, the decisions taken by regional authorities to step in if local outcomes did not fulfil the stipulations of national decommunization laws, and litigations initiated by local community groups aiming to push back against the changes. Our analysis of these debates allowed us to identify four key models of discourse, namely: case-law or litigation; the use of open letters; the Deputy’s address; and recommunization.We also consider how demographic characteristics of cities (especially age and ethnicity) affect the decommunization process, and look at how attitudes towards decommunization varies across the regions of Ukraine, finding.We argue that a multiperspective approach to Ukraine’s history, leading to a shared vision of its past, is vital in order to promote social cohesion, peace and democracy, whilst building the capacity of individual cities.

Bulgaria and Slovenia Protest Event Dataset (2009-2017)

Bulgaria and Slovenia Protest Event Dataset (2009-2017)

Protest cycles and protest patterns in Southeast Europe

Author(s): Ivaylo Dinev / Language(s): English Issue: 1/2022

This article aims to present findings from an original dataset on collective action in the protest arenas of Bulgaria and Slovenia in the aftermath of the global economic crisis, 2009-2017. Unlike other empirical studies which focus either on particular social movements or individual-level measurements, this dataset consists of all reports of collective action in the form of protests demonstrations, strikes, blockades, occupations, sit-ins, marches, petitions etc., derived from the national Bulgarian and Slovenian press agencies, including information about claims and actors. Along with a description of the data collection, techniques, and coding, the article identifies the phases of protest cycles and explores general protest patterns. The findings depict three distinct periods of activity in Bulgaria and Slovenia: the ascending phase of protest cycle involving immediate protest responses against austerity measures (2009-2011), massive anti-establishment discontent involving the dominant role of new informal protest movements (2012-2013), and the de-mobilization phase of mass protest and the rise of contention about cultural issues (since 2014).
