Abstract:
This article is about social policies for minorities in general and minorities future in Europe in particular with a focus on the Crimean Tatars of Dobruja, Romania. This paper attempts to highlight some social and sociolinguistic issues and policies with the Crimean Tatar historical minority of Dobruja, Romania. The body of the paper provides few aspects about: their social history, process of romanianization and assimilation. Also, I gave an outlook on history, sociolinguistic, educational and cultural aspects of the Crimean Tatar minority, and Romanian state policies regarding the protection of minorities. This research is based both on quantitative and qualitative variables for which I used some documents, which are part of the heritage of the Başbakanlık Osmanlı Arşivi (The Ottoman Archives of the Prime Minister’s Office) fund Sādaret Mektūbī Kalemi Nezaret ve Devair Evrakı (A.MKT.NZD.), that provides information about Crimean refugees and their settlement in Dobruja. This study is based on face-to-face interviews conducted in Constanţa (Romania) in February, July and August 2016, content analysis of Romanian language press published after 1880 with Constanţa County Library “Ioan N. Roman” and Romanian language press from today’s Constanţa County. My paper delivers information about the Romanian government social and linguistic policies concerning the position of minorities in today’s Romania, lack of framework law for minorities and how it influenced people’s social behaviour.
