Negocieri româno-americane: transferuri culturale ?i intelectuale
Romanian-American Negotiations: Cultural and Intellectual Transfers
Wilson was treading a very fine line, where there were genuine and legitimate conflicting interests. He said he thought America would be first, not in the selfish spirit, but first to be in Europe to help whichever side won. Not to take sides, but to be there to promote justice and to help rebuild after the conflict.
Sarah Churchwell, Smithsonian Magazine (2018)
The "Gheorghe ?incai" Research Institute for Social Sciences and the Humanities of the Romanian Academy, Târgu Mure? invites you to participate in the International Conference Romanian-American Negotiations in Education, Culture and Art, which will be held online on 15-16 June 2023. The conference is organized in the frame of the project PN-III-P4-PCE-2021-0688, with the title "The Ethos of Dialogue and Education: Romanian - American Cultural Negotiations (1920-1940)" financed by UEFISCDI - CNCS. The project focuses on defining, researching and analyzing the multivalent cultural and educational negotiations between Romania and the United States and their implications for interwar political and diplomatic relations.
The purpose of the Conference is to identify, analyze and apply the concept of negotiation in the educational, cultural, identity, religious, artistic or gender fields, to highlight their effects and implications on Romanian-American relations. The theme is topical in the current context of the escalation of international political-military conflicts, unexpectedly leading to the creation or consolidation of new opportunities for natural communication and collaboration in the academic, cultural, artistic and scientific fields, including between Romania and the United States. The conference is an invitation to intercultural and international communication and openness in the context of Romanian-American relations. Interdisciplinary and intercultural, comparative and multiperspectival, national and international methodological approaches are favored.
Topics will include:
