Romania diversa – Potentiale und Herausforderungen
Der vorliegende Band enthält eine Sammlung von Beiträgen, die auf der interdisziplinären Nachwuchstagung Forum Junge Romanistik, die vom 11.–13. April 2022 an der Universität Wien stattfand, präsentiert wurden. Die Tagung widmete sich dem Thema der Diversität und Vielfalt in den romanischen Sprachen, Literaturen und Kulturen.

Ein besonderes Anliegen dieser Publikation ist es, Einblicke in aktuelle Forschungsarbeiten von Nachwuchswissenschaftler*innen der Romanisti...
Migrationsfilme als "kritische Heimatfilme"?
Seit dem Zusammenbruch des Kommunismus ist die Anzahl im Ausland arbeitender Rumän*innen stark angestiegen. Inzwischen leben fast 20 % der Bevölkerung jenseits der Landesgrenzen. Transnationale Familienstrukturen mit in Rumänien zurückgelassenen Kindern oder Eltern und pluri-lokale Lebensweisen der Migrant*innen sind in kürzester Zeit zu einem alltäglichen Phänomen der rumänischen Gesellschaft geworden. Die Auswirkungen dieser Migration sind von gesamtgesellschaftlicher Relevanz und finden daher immer wieder Eingang in Literatur, Musik und Film. Diese Medien werden dabei von realen Ereignissen inspiriert, greifen aktuelle Diskurse auf und konstruieren eigene fiktionale Wirklichkeit...
Lovable Crooks and Loathsome Jews
In the years leading up to the World Wars, Germany and Austria saw an unprecedented increase in the study and depiction of the criminal. Science, journalism and crime fiction were obsessed with delinquents while ignoring the social causes of crime. As criminologists measured criminals' heads and debated biological predestination, court reporters and crime writers wrote side-splitting or heart-rending stories featuring one of the most popular characters ever created--the hilarious or piteous crook. The author examines the figure of the crook and notions of "Jewish" criminality in a range of antisemitic writing, from Nazi propaganda to court reporting to forgotten classics of crime fiction.

Coherence and Divergence in Services Trade Law
This book addresses topical questions concerning the legal framework of trade in services, and assesses how these issues are dealt with in GATS and in selected preferential trade agreements. In addition, the chapters discuss whether the differences and similarities (if any) are evidence of greater coherence or greater divergence. The book combines the individual analyses to provide a more comprehensive picture of the current law on services trade liberalisation.A quarter of a century after the conclusion of the General Agreement on Trade and Services (GATS), international law on trade in services is still in a state of flux: on the one hand, countries increasingly conclude bilateral and regi...
