Abstract

The aim of this article is to find in the pages of the national magazine Revista 22, reflections of the minority issue –in this case the targeted subject being the condition of Jewish minority of Romania in the country or emigrated elsewhere (as for instance Israel). The article brings into discussion also some reflections of Jews in Europe. The method of work is the critical interpretations of articles combined with a descriptive analysis of their content. Our conclusion leads to the fact that there is a small, active community of Jews in Romania represented at the political level as a minority community, pursuing specific interests who cherishes the memory of Holocaust and wants to say the truth about it, having important ties and connections with the Romanian Jews from Israel and being directly interested in maintaining Jewish interests in Israel. At European level, the problems, existing with the inner states minorities, are amplified by waves of migrations coming from Asia. The conclusion is that the Revista 22 brings a lot of information about the Jewish minority from Romania, resolving the historical issue of saying the truth about the Holocaust, but, as a recommendation, I suggest to bring more fresh news and periodically about Israel, as a vivid center of religions, that concerns European Union and its citizens.

Highlights

  • The aim of this article is to find in the pages of the national magazine Revista 22, reflections of the minority issue –in this case the targeted subject being the condition of Jewish minority of Romania in the country or emigrated elsewhere

  • The idea of diversity partnerships bring into the spotline the idea of European elections from May 25, 2014 and try to identify what means this for immigration and managing the European minorities’ policies

  • Lebedko in the article Interaction of ethnic stereotypes and shared identity in intercultural communication emphasized the idea of “shared Identity” which enable professionals and volunteers to get to know the “foreign” communities: “Of the greatest importance in intercultural communication is shared identity; scholars, teachers, students, tourists, nonprofessionals who go to various countries, study the phenomenon”. (Lebedko, 2014: 182) In this sense, the hours I spent to Jewish Community from Oradea while I was doing my doctorate in the history of Jews from Romania and Hungary during the years 1945-1953, reflected in Romanian and Hungarian historical writings, observing the community and lecturing books, helping me to have a closer, inner image of this community, traditions and religion, were extremely helpful
