Mapping the political toponymy of educational namescapes: A quantitative analysis of Romanian school names
2019
Abstract This study sets out to map the political toponymy of Romanian schooling network. Starting from the theoretical premise that national memory is toponymically inscribed, inter alia, on a series of public organizations that form an institutional namescape, the paper reads the Romanian historical memory through the looking glass of school names. Exhaustive data was collected for the Romanian secondary schools bearing a nominal identity (N = 2850). Data were analyzed in terms of the ethnic and gender distribution, the social (occupational), spatial, and historical structures of the Romanian educational namescape. Our findings reveal that the political toponymy of the Romanian schooling …
A Lite Romanian BERT: ALR-BERT
2022
Large-scale pre-trained language representation and its promising performance in various downstream applications have become an area of interest in the field of natural language processing (NLP). There has been huge interest in further increasing the model’s size in order to outperform the best previously obtained performances. However, at some point, increasing the model’s parameters may lead to reaching its saturation point due to the limited capacity of GPU/TPU. In addition to this, such models are mostly available in English or a shared multilingual structure. Hence, in this paper, we propose a lite BERT trained on a large corpus solely in the Romanian language, which we cal…

THE IMPACT OF THE INDUSTRIALIZATION PROCESS ON THE OTHERS SECTORS OF THE ROMANIAN ECONOMY.THE DYNAMIC ESTABLISHED BETWEEN INDUSTRY AND AGRICULTURE (1…
2012
Once obtained its independence, Romania began a vast process of rebuilding its economy on new bases. The main interest was focused on developing a national industry, the industrialization process representing one of the most significant chapters of the Romanian economic history, as well as of the history of the national economic thought. Placing/considering the industry as the center of the economic system came to invalidate the theory of a "signally agrarian Romania", marking the beginnings of a diversification concerning the structure of the Romanian economy. Although the industrialization constituted an unquestionable premise of the modernization of the economy, the Romanian society and …
Youth Migration Aspirations in Georgia and Moldova
2018
This study investigates in what ways individual and household capabilities and their general life aspirations affect migration aspirations in particular, among Georgian and Moldovan youth. The utilized sample was extracted from nationally representative surveys and considers youth aged 11 to 19 (N=3,583). Multi-level, step-wise probit models are used to predict youth migration aspirations. Among the findings are that individual capabilities, aspirations, and household capabilities significantly impact youth migration aspirations, while household aspirations are statistically insignificant. The results further emulate the importance of residential satisfaction, the effects of gendered social…

2016
We live in a period which is inseparably linked to new forms of electronic communication. The Internet provides its users with newforms of communication including messaging, discussions, and chats. It appears that the written language used in email messages, forums, blogs and chat sessions differs from standard written language. The Computer becomes a tool, a sort of mediator, which indirectly modifies the CMC discourse. The aim of the contribution is to analyse specific forms of such type of written communication which appears in Romanian and Czech chats.
Postilla all'opera di Andrea Camilleri
2022
The language of the novels of Andrea Camilleri is idiosyncratic, accreting onto Sicilian dialect like a saprophyte. However, the novels of Camilleri have had greater national literary success in Italy in the last 30 years. The first part of this text will attempt to explain the reasons for this cultural phenomenon, against the backdrop of the Italian linguistic panora- ma. The second part gathers together aspects of Camilleri’s prose, which shed light on the nature and origin of his literary expression.
