Dobrogea – A European Model of Multiethnic Coexistence
Journal Title: Dialogo - Year 2018, Vol 5, Issue 1
Abstract
Multiculturalism is a contemporary reality. The labour market has become dynamic and people can move, especially in the area of a united Europe, without hitting too many obstacles. However, the experience requires an understanding of how we behave in the space where we want to work in and in which we want to live. The rules of peaceful coexistence require the capacity of understanding the respect for the ethnic, cultural and religious identity of each person. Every ethnic community can and should contribute actively to the development of the interethnic and interreligious relations in the common space that we share. This study discusses a model of interethnic and interreligious coexistence that lies in the Romanian historical region of Dobrogea, made up of Constanța and Tulcea counties. We have considered necessary to present a retrospective summary of the history of this territory as a necessary preamble to the development of our topic. The presentation of each ethnicity, of the religious and ethnic map described in the latest national census and of the current situation of relations between the Romanian majority community and other minorities that live in this space portray the area as having a status of a “European model” of interethnic and interreligious coexistence.
