Politics of Recognition: Post-1990 cinematic remembrance of the Holocaust and Porajmos in Romania and the Republic of Moldova in comparative perspective

该研究项目的重点是1989/90年之后的电影制作，涉及罗马尼亚和摩尔多瓦共和国对犹太人（大屠杀）和罗姆人（Porajmos）的迫害和灭绝。在这两个国家，法西斯主义和第二次世界大战期间犹太人和罗姆人被驱逐和谋杀的记忆是历史政治的争议领域，与这两个社会承认这些少数群体的当代政治密切相关。这些冲突将通过两个研究视角进行分析：首先，电影本身将被检查的叙事结构和图像模式。一个交叉的视角将有助于揭示性别、种族、宗教和其他社会差异类别在过去的电影叙事制作中的联系，第二，电影的制作和接受将被视为围绕社会承认和犹太人和罗姆人在两个社会中的社会地位的社会谈判的焦点。民族志方法有助于考察这些历史政治冲突中的行动者和行动者群体。特别关注电影在争取承认中的作用。本研究将努力使用各种比较和转移分析：关于大屠杀和Porajmos的电影作品将相互关联，罗马尼亚和摩尔多瓦共和国的发展将在其具体和相互考虑-这一研究项目的目的是详细描述罗马尼亚和摩尔多瓦共和国对少数群体政治的民族自我形象和社会自我理解的重新塑造。为此，电影与记忆的关系将在欧洲民族学以行动者为中心、以实践为中心的视角下得到更准确的界定。

This research project focuses on film production after 1989/90 that deals with the persecution and extermination of Jews (Holocaust) and Roma (Porajmos) in Romania and the Republic of Moldova. In both countries, memories of the deportation and murder of Jews and Roma during Fascism and the Second World War represent disputed domains of the politics of history closely linked to contemporary politics of recognition of these minorities in both societies. These conflicts are to be analyzed through two research perspectives:First, the films themselves will be examined with view to narrative structures and iconographic patterns. An intersectional perspective will help to uncover the connections between gender, ethnicity, religion and other social categories of difference in the production of cinematic narratives of the past.Second, the production and reception of films will be considered as focal points in societal negotiations surrounding societal recognition and the social place of Jews and Roma in both societies. Ethnographic methods will help to examine the actors and actor groups in these conflicts of history politics. Particular attention will be given to the role of films in struggles for recognition.This research will strive to use various comparative and transfer analyses: cinematic productions about the Holocaust and Porajmos will be placed in relation to one another, and the development in Romania and the Republic of Moldova will be considered in its particular and mutually-constitutive elements.The aim of this research project is to provide a thick description of the refiguration of national self-images and societal self-understandings in Romania and the Republic of Moldova view to minority politics. For this purpose, the relationship between film and memory will be more precisely determined from an actor-centered, practice-focused perspective of European Ethnology.
