Identitatea și vitalitatea etnolingvistică

Etnolingvistic Identity and Vitality

Cristina Chiru

Full text (PDF) 

Abstract (Rezumat în limba engleză): The ethnolinguistic identity was built on situated identity theory and is not static, but dynamic, and situation ally dependent. The concept of ethnolinguistic vitality is used to designate the sociostructural forces that determine a particular ethnic group's continued existence as a separate and active collective entity within heterogeneous societies. Bourhis, Giles and Rosenthal (1981) distinguished three dimensions: the status of the group in the larger society, demographic variables, and institutional support for the group. Bornman and Appelgryn distinguished five dimensions: institutional support, group status and power, maintenance of identity, maintenance of symbols, and threat to identity. But they emphasized that it needed to establish whether the five dimensions identified are universal dimensions of ethnolinguistic vitality, or whether they were merely products of the unique circumstances.

Despre măsurarea intenției de vot în sondajele de opinie

How to Measure Vot Intention in the Survey

Bogdan Voicu

Full text (PDF) 

Abstract (Rezumat în limba engleză): The bulk of this paper is dedicated to investigate the causes and effects of non-responses in the political surveys. I used 27 data bases provided by different Institutes and private companies to prove that the predictions on the results of elections are better if there are taking in account not only the estimations from the vot item but also the characteristics of the survey by itself. Romanian mass media noticed that different surveys conducted in the same period of time, are producing different estimates of the vote intentions. Usually, the "disfavored" political parties are incriminating of malevolence the agency that was collecting the data, while the public opinion formulates doubts about the probity of this agency. In this paper, I am arguing against this point of view using theoretical explanations doubled by empirical evidences. My first point is that the proportion of the people with "no declared vote intention" varies among surveys as it is determined by the position of the vote intention item in the interview. On its tum, this is determined by the type of survey (focused or not on evaluations of the political process and its actors) and the length of the questionnaire.
