TY - JOUR TI - Between “Imperial heritage” and “Balkan neurosis”Federalist projects as seen from the Romanian perspective AU - Gavril-Antonesei, Gabriela TI - Between “Imperial heritage” and “Balkan neurosis”Federalist projects as seen from the Romanian perspective AB - The presentation focuses on federalist project and plans, political initiatives and addressing officials, (some of the) reactions of the Romanian intellectual and political elites to these projects, as well as their interpretations proposed by the Romanian historiography. Let us begin by stating that the Romanian culture is a distinctive example of the Central-European perception of being “in-between”, along with its possible conceptualizations, being mitigated by the deeply rooted conviction of the “enclave-like” character of this culture. The historic Habsburg heritage is presented exclusively negatively, and a number of historical fi gures, including both politicians and artists, are criticized for their “pro-Habsburg” or “pro-German” agitation, which is considered anti-national.
