THE IMPACT OF LEGISLATIVE CHANGES IN THE EDUCATIONAL FIELD ON ROMANIANS IN UKRAINE

Summary/Abstract: The Romanian and the Ukrainian culture, in fact the one from the Chernivtsi region, have intersected several times throughout history, knowing different stages of intensity, depending on the political evolutions. As the sociocultural reality does not always correspond to the legal reality, the study of Romanian communities abroad is a duty of Romanian researchers, especially since the Romanian community in Ukraine was not, historically, a marginal, insignificant, but was a cultural center and scientifically significant during the period of Greater Romania. Some of the important problems faced by Romanians abroad are: access to education in their mother tongue, the official use of the Romanian language in administration and justice, financing the activities of Romanian minority associations, Romanian-language media, preservation of religious identity, representation at the level of the administration, the lack of parliamentary representation, the restitution of the properties that belonged to the Romanian community. In this context, it is interesting to know the legal framework with incidence in the field, as well as the role of the institutions that the Romanian state has placed, over time, in the service of Romanians abroad. In this article, we will bring to the fore the phenomenon of migration and the eternal attempt of Romanians everywhere to preserve their ethnic, cultural, linguistic and religious identity. From this perspective, the legislative framework that responds to the needs of Romanians everywhere has a major impact on them and any change in it greatly affects them.
