Serbia &  Montenegro in fall 2004.  Follow-on initiatives in both Macedonia
and Serbia are currently underway. As the projects’ second and first years
(respectively) conclude with calendar year 2006, an external evaluation is
required to assess the projects’ success in generating the expected
results. For more information on ECMI and its activities with Roms, please

·        Excellent written English;
·        Familiarity with the living conditions of Roms in Macedonia/Serbia;
·        The ability to work under time pressure.


Job Descriptions

Serbia: As the follow-on to ECMI’s assessment in Serbia and Montenegro
approaches the end of its first year, ECMI is in the process of organizing
an external evaluation to be conducted over the period 3-9 September
2006.  This evaluation involves extensive in-country travel and carries an
honorarium of € 2 000.

Macedonia: This evaluation is for a follow-on project nearing the end of
its second year. The timeframe for this evaluation is 24-28 October 2006,
with an honorarium of € 1 500.

For both evaluations, costs for international and in-country travel, hotel

regulations will be covered by ECMI.

CALL FOR PAPERS

   Women, Gender and the Cultural
   Production of Knowledge

   8-12 August 2007,
   Sofia, Bulgaria

   Conference of the International Federation for Research
   in Women¡¯s History


   Cultural history deals with various ¡®artefacts¡¯ produced by human activity
throughout history: with both practices and representations, with written and
visual texts. It is interested in both written and oral (but also visual)
aspects of culture (understood in anthropological sense: cultural artefact as
locus of meaning).
   We welcome interdisciplinary contributions (coming from fields as diverse as
history and literary studies, cultural studies, art history, media studies,
anthropology, history of philosophy, historiography) dealing with historical
aspects of production, signification and reception of culture ¨C all from a
gender perspective. We aim to bring together scholars at different stages of
their careers from all over the world.


    We are interested in cultural production that deals with individual and
collective authorship, with modes of publication (i.e. with the ways that bring
cultural artefacts before the public), and with the historical context of
production;
    Cultural signification is important for the production and reception of
artefacts. It pays attention to the social conventions within which the
artefacts are produced (literary language, styles of painting, writing, film
genre, etc.);
    Cultural reception/consumption that studies how the artefact was
received/read/understood by contemporaries and the meanings it provoked later
under new historical circumstances;
   We are interested in studies that pay attention on the role gender, class,
ethnicity, race, age played in the process of cultural production, transmission
and consumption of knowledge, studies that consider:

    oral and written culture, both in traditional and modern societies;
    restricted and mass literacy;
    the role of literate culture in societies with predominantly oral culture;
    the role of oral culture in modern societies of mass literacy/high literacy
rate;
    the modes of reading and writing and their role throughout space and time, in
various places and historical periods;
    the role of traditional and modern media in the cultural production of
knowledge;
   We are interested:
   ¡ñ    in how cultural memory operates and in the related question about the
gender of that memory, and social and cultural production of women and gender in
history;
   ¡ñ    in the role religion/church, education and state play in the process of
cultural production and consumption.

     Submission of Abstracts  Abstracts in English (no longer than 300 words) +
short CVs (10-15 lines) should be sent to the organizers by e-mail:

Europe is groaning underneath the heat. Too much sun, too much heat,
too much sweat. Cool down! Take a swim in PLOTKI's new swimming pool
issue!

Take a swim

Do not be scared. Get your swimming suit and go swimming with PLOTKI
[how to swim in Berlin], find out how plotki community imagines
their favorite splish-splash [design your own swimming pool], go on
a visit to Tirana's open-air pool [aquarium for humans] or
experience what happens once the water flies off forever [swimming
site, camp pool]. Learn about [the surprising history of the
swimming suit], get hygienic by putting a plaster on your wart
before swimming [parvarti the plaster collector] or - in case there
is no pool nearby - follow the instructions on how to [beat the
heat]. And if you ever wondered if pools can also be filled with
fluid other than water, ask an insect [bernie the beetle] or take a
horrifying swim [...in blood and electricity].

For its next issue, the Eastern European magazine PLOTKI is looking
for online authors to offer "monthly updated rumours" on the
topic "BLUE". PLOTKI authors are expected to contribute to the
magazine by coming up with an idea and a material (journalistic,

The topic is "blue". Light blue, dark blue, or just BLUE. It's up to
you.

PLOTKI is a non-commercial project. All PLOTKI authors,

themselves to reporting from and about Eastern Europe in an
unconventional way. So far we are not able to pay anybody, but we
are always able to cover production expenses.

European Yearbook of Minority Issues, Volume 4 2004/2005

The European Yearbook of Minority Issues provides a critical and timely review
of contemporary developments in minority-majority relations in Europe. It
combines analysis, commentary and documentation in relation to conflict
management, international legal developments and domestic legislation affecting
minorities in Europe.

Part I contains scholarly articles, and, in 2004/5, features three special focus
sections on Ombudsman Institutions, The EU and Minority Protection, and The
Caucasus Region.

Part II reviews the implementation of minority legislation and international
standards at the universal and regional levels as well as new developments in
relation to them and contains a list of international norms.

Apart from providing a unique annual overview of minority issues for both
scholars and practitioners in this field, the Yearbook is an indispensable
reference tool for libraries, research institutes as well as governments and
international organisations.

The European Yearbook is edited in collaboration with the Minorities and
Regional Autonomies Department of the European Academy Bozen/Bolzano. Volume 5
will appear in early 2007.

Seventeen years after the onset of revolutionary
changes in 1989,Central and Eastern European societies
are still confronted with their histories. Memories
and recollections of the past are contested and the
past is painstakingly constituted through the
interplay of collective construction, political
bargains, reversals, rationalizing of refusals to come
to terms with it as well as attempts to recognize
the past and cope with it. Central and Eastern Europe
(CEE) have witnessed unprecedented spatial and
population shifts and splits which marked the 20th
century globally. Many minorities which were often
local majorities or equal in number were left in the
aftermath of wars as mere memories that quickly faded
due to the rapid intrusion of communism. The process
of building societies which are not just
ethno-culturally heterogeneous but also open to all
diverse groups has been contingent on coming to terms
with the past. This process became the arena for
opening ways to facing current challenges such as
migration, borders dissolution and violation of local
social and economic balances.
Since 1989 CEE societies have undergone unparalleled
social change,however, the expected reforms in the
spheres of law, public policy, culture, media, economy
and social policies have been substantially delayed
and compromised. The simultaneous emergence of
free-market economies and pluralist politics led to
situations in which the statequickly withdrew or
collapsed, and distinctions between state, collective,
and private domains became unclear. It has been in the
interest of those actors that emerged in this initial
phase of change to prolong a specifically
post-socialist culture between socialism and the free
market. This may have decisively contributed to the
Eurosceptic backlash in the ranks of particular
mainstream political forces and in specific cultural
segments and sections of societies in some CEE
countries. What is in this light the meaning of "the
big European switch" of 2004 and its upcoming
enlargement follow-up? How 'Central and Eastern
European' have the CEE countries stayed and Western
Europe become? What are the reconstituted boundaries?


Held by School of Social Studies, Masaryk University,
Brno, Czech Republic, 28th - 30th June 2007 and
organized in cooperation with the School of Slavonic
and East European Studies, University College London,
the conference presents a major opportunity for
postgraduate students and young academics to discuss
the events in Central and Eastern Europe also
including but not limited to Russia, Eurasia, the
Balkans, and the Baltic States. We invite submissions
and participants from a wide range of disciplinary
perspectives. Proposals should be sent, as email
attachments, to: tomasekm@... at the latest
January 31, 2007.

Dear all,

If anyone here is in contact with Raluca Soreanu of Central European
University and could ask her to get in touch with me, I'd be extremely
grateful: the organisers of a conference she attended in February need
to get in touch with her, and we've exhausted every other channel we

Turkey, Germany and the Wars in Yugoslavia. A Search for
Reconstruction of State Identities?

  With the phasing out of the Cold War, not only the countries of the
former  Eastern bloc faced challenges in their internal and external
policies, but  also those of the Western bloc. Countries belonging to the
Western
  alliance had to deal with indigenous problems that emerged with the
end of  the bipolar world order on the one hand, and also cope with changing
  international circumstances in their foreign policies on the other
hand. Two countries of the western world emerged as the ones that were most
  deeply affected by the new phase of international politics and faced
  considerable pressure to transform their structures accordingly.
These were Turkey and Germany. This study aims to explain the attitudes of
  Turkey and Germany to Yugoslav conflicts, beginning with the wars in
  Slovenia and Croatia in the summer of 1991 to the end of the Kosovo
War. It tries to analyse how state identity or search for a new state
identity affected foreign policy of Turkey and Germany in the the post-Cold
War era in the case of the Yugoslav wars. It argues that during the conflicts
  Turkey wanted to prove that it was still Western-oriented, still  interested in
contributing to Western security by trying to acquire a  new
  identity of "regional power". On the other hand, Germany was
attempting to  show that it was not considering a renationalization of foreign
policy or  projection of power politics. Berlin also aimed at showing it was
still a  loyal ally and was concerned with not being behind the other
countries. In  other words, Germany remained committed to its European identity.
The
aim  of this study is to contribute to identity studies in the international
  relations discipline.

New Book: Media and Minorities in South East Europe



By South East Europe Media Organisation / Oliver Vujovic & Thomas A. Bauer
(ed.)



As a first of its kind, the book covers the situation of minorities and the
media in: Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus,
Greece, Hungary, Republic of Macedonia - FYROM, Moldova, Montenegro,
Romania, Serbia / Kosovo, Slovakia, Slovenia, Turkey and Ukraine. SEEMO has
tried to report on both officially recognised minorities in this region and
those that do not have an official minority status in some countries.

The book includes presentations by some minority media outlets, as well as a
contact list of selected media. There are also special reports on the
minority media of Roma and Aromanian in the region. Other special reports
cover the legal framework and the education of minority media
representatives. The book also gives an overview of minorities and the media
and reviews of several important international and regional conventions,
declarations, guidelines, instruments, conclusions and recommendations
regarding minorities, languages and media.

Ursula Plassnik, Austrian Minister for Foreign Affairs said in her
introduction to the new book: "The region of South East Europe, and
particularly the Western Balkans, constitutes one of the main foreign policy
priorities of the current Austrian EU Presidency. At our informal meeting in
Salzburg in March 2006 the Foreign Ministers of the EU and the countries of
the Western Balkan jointly adopted a declaration reaffirming and
strengthening the European perspective for the countries of the Western
Balkans. By doing so, we sent a strong signal of encouragement and of joint
political will to the whole region. Our common goal is to draw the countries
of the Western Balkans closer to European structures and, thus, to our
European community of values. The Western Balkans is part of Europe’s
history and will be part of our common future. In the last years the South
East Europe Media Organisation (SEEMO) has successfully built up a
reputation as a key actor of civil society, committed to promoting freedom
of the press and professional journalistic standards, and thereby
contributing to the development of democratic societies in the region."  She
added: "I therefore appreciate SEEMO’s commitment to fostering mutual
understanding between majorities and minorities."

The introduction by the Representative on Freedom of the Media of the
Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE), Miklós
Haraszti, states: "The essence of the democracy assumes the full inclusion
and integration of all peoples into the life of the nation, no matter what
language they speak." About minority media he said: "We have identified some
key problems holding back the development of the minority media: Minority
media outlets are hardly ever economically viable; Low training in diversity
reporting; Lack of collegial solidarity between journalists from different
ethnic backgrounds. The results of our projects have also shown that,
despite all differences that are determining the working environment of the
minority media in the different countries, the following factors have
universal validity: 1. The role of public service broadcasters is still
vitally important. The private sector alone cannot guarantee per se a
pluralistic media landscape. 2. Support from the government is of crucial
importance for the survival of minority media. The practice of direct state
funding always leaves room for state control over media and should be
avoided. Following the examples of some multilingual democracies, mechanisms
of indirect support, such as tax benefits, reduced postage costs or
cross-subsidies, should be considered in order to enable minority media to
operate independently. 3. The media, both mainstream and minority, should
promote mutual understanding in multilingual societies by reflecting the
multi-ethnic and multilingual society instead of focusing only on their own
community.”
