After the fall of the Iron Curtain in 1989, millions of Romanians
emigrated in search of work and new experiences; they became
engaged in an interrogation of what it meant to be Romanian in a
united Europe and the globalized world. Their thoughts, feelings
and hopes soon began to populate the virtual world of digital and
mobile technologies. This book chronicles the online cultural and
political expressions of the Romanian diaspora using websites based
in Europe and North America. Through online exchanges, Romanians
perform new types of citizenship, articulated from the margins of
the political field. The politicization of their diasporic
condition is manifested through written and public protests against
discriminatory work legislation, mobilization, lobbying, cultural
promotion and setting up associations and political parties that
are proof of the gradual institutionalization of informal
communications. Online discourse analysis, supplemented by
interviews with migrants, poets and politicians involved in the
process of defining new diasporic identities, provide the basis of
this book, which defines the new cultural and political practices
of the Romanian diaspora.
