Church Reckoning with Communism in Post-1989 Romania

The present volume focuses on the relationship with Communism of Romania's most important religious denominations and their attempt to cope with that difficult past which continues to cast an important shadow over their present. For the first time ever, this volume considers both the majority Romanian Orthodox Church and significant minority denominations such as the Roman and Greek Catholic Churches, the Reformed Church, the Hungarian Unitarian Church, and the Pentecostal Christian Denomination. It argues that no religious group escaped collaboration with the Communists. After 1989, however, most denominations had little desire to tackle their tainted past and make a clean start. In part, this situation was facilitated by the country's deficient legislation that did not encourage the pursuit of lustration, which in turn did not lead to a serious movement of elite renewal in the religious realm. Instead, a strong process of reproduction of the old elites and their adaptation to democracy has been the dominant characteristic of the post-Communist period.

Cu un cuvânt însoţitor al Preasfinţitului Mihai Frăţilă, episcop greco-catolic de Bucureşti „Martiri ai credinței, martori ai fericirii, sfinți... Fiecare dintre noi a cunoscut oameni care au trăit în curățenie morală, care au vorbit despre fericire, care au trăit asemenea sfinților. Mulți români de-a lungul deceniilor comuniste au murit în penitenciare, au avut parte de experiențe atroce și de privațiuni teribile. De ce doar unii dintre ei sunt canonizați? Pentru că martiriul celor șapte episcopi greco-catolici povestit în aceste pagini s-a petrecut în raport cu o comunitate de credință și cu un jurământ de slujire prin care ei nu-și mai aparțineau ca in...

Istoria Romanilor de la Carol I la Nicolae Ceausescu

Culegerea de studii “Istoria romanilor de la Carol I la Nicolae Ceausescu” reprezinta o reusita sinteza a istoriei noastre pe o perioada de peste un secol, in care Romania a cunoscut diverse regimuri politice si avantul modernizarii, dar si o criza economica si doua razboaie mondiale devastatoare. In acest context economic si politic, romanii au reusit, pentru prima data in istoria lor zbuciumata, sa traiasca toti in granitele unui singur stat – Romania. Prof. univ. dr. Ioan Scurtu a reusit sa fixeze principalii piloni in evolutia istorica de la momentul Marii Uniri pana la regimul comunist al lui Nicolae Ceausescu. De asemenea, evidentiaza pozitia celor mai importante personalitati care au marcat aceasta perioada istorica cum ar fi: Carol I, Nicolae Iorga, Hitler, Constantin Argetoianu si Nicolae Ceausescu, dimpreuna cu pozitia Romaniei la conferintele si tratatele de pace care au avut loc in acest rastimp. Fiecare studiu este realizat cu un deosebit simt istoric si critic, exhaustiv din punct de vedere bibliografic si stiintific. De asemenea, cu fiecare din aceste studii, istoricul si dascalul vine sa completeze istoria romanilor pe perioada sus amintita.

Names and Naming

This edited book examines names and naming policies, trends and practices in a variety of multicultural contexts across America, Europe, Africa and Asia. In the first part of the book, the authors take theoretical and practical approaches to the study of names and naming in these settings, exploring legal, societal, political and other factors. In the second part of the book, the authors explore ways in which names mirror and contribute to the construction of identity in areas defined by multiculturalism. The book takes an interdisciplinary approach to onomastics, and it will be of interest to scholars working across a number of fields, including linguistics, sociology, anthropology, politics, geography, history, religion and cultural studies.
