Abstract We are going through troubled times, with worldwide pandemic crises affecting us altogether: citizens, companies and states.

Integration of animal health and public health surveillance sources to exhaustively inform the risk of zoonosis: An application to visceral leishmani…
2019
Abstract Visceral leishmaniasis (VL) is a parasitic disease that is endemic in more than 80 countries, and leads to high fatality rates when left untreated. We investigate the relationship of VL cases in dogs and human cases, specifically for evidence of VL in dogs leading to excess cases in humans. We use surveillance data for dogs and humans for the years 2007–2011 to conduct both spatial and spatio-temporal analyses. Several models are evaluated incorporating varying levels of dependency between dog and human data. Models including dog data show marginal improvement over models without; however, for a subset of spatial units with ample data, models provide concordant risk classification …

Sequencing toponymic change: A quantitative longitudinal analysis of street renaming in Sibiu, Romania.
2021
Recent scholarship in critical toponymy studies has refashioned the understanding of street names from innocent labels to nominal loci of historical memory and vectors of collective identity that are embroiled with power relations. Urban nomenclatures consist of more than mere linguistic signposts deployed onto space to facilitate navigation. Street names are also powerful signposts that indicate the political regime and its socio-cultural values. Drawing on these theoretical insights, this paper is focused on Sibiu (Romania) and explore the city’s shifting namescape in a longitudinal perspective spanning one century and a half of modern history (1875–2020). The analysis is based on a compl…
The Infra-Constitutionality of European Law in Romania and the Challenges of the Romanian Constitutional Culture
2016
This article deals with European Law as a legal transplant facing the Romanian constitutional culture, in the context of constitutionally limiting the Romanian State’s sovereignty as a member of the EU. Consequently, the reception of the EU law into the Romanian constitutional system (and culture) is determined by two paradoxically divergent Romanian legal-cultural traits: on the one hand, the necessity (bearing accents of national legal pride) to cherish and fructify the Romanian legal (constitutional) traditions, reified, as I shall denominate, as ‘the adapted Romanian law’, and stipulated in the 2003 amended Constitution as a ‘tradition firewall’ / ecran de traditionalite. On the other h…
