"This article tries to understand what type of film is approved by the Nicolae Ceauşescu regime and how it is promoted, through various propaganda channels. In this sense, we choose to discuss the film made by the artistic couple Manole Marcus - Titus Popovici, The Power and The Truth (1972), and we resort to a content analysis to understand the way it was made. We are also interested in the echoes of the film in the press of the time and how with the help of newspaper articles the authorities inoculate the idea that this film is the most important cinematographic achievement of the moment, a benchmark for political productions to be made from that point on. Keywords: Cinematography, Political Film, Nicolae Ceauşescu, Manole Marcus, Titus Popovici, Propaganda "

Alors que filmer en France est soutenu par la puissance publique, filmer la France est un projet plus difficile, malgré quelques belles réussites documentaires et cinématographiques.

This article examines gender mainstreaming in Sweden, which is an interesting case because several favorable conditions make its implementation likely. It addresses two main questions: (1) to what extent has gender mainstreaming been implemented and (2) what are the consequences? The article first discusses the pros and cons of gender mainstreaming as reflected in the international feminist debate. It then briefly describes the favorable conditions of the Swedish case and subsequently maps out the introduction of gender mainstreaming since 1994, focusing on the process and its politics. It concludes with a discussion of the Swedish experience in terms of the promise and pitfalls of gender mainstreaming identified in the feminist debate and the implications of the Swedish case for feminist theorizing on gender mainstreaming. Adapted from the source document.

Für die Auswertung von Zeitzeugeninterviews, die für einen Film, eine Ausstellung oder eine Präsentation genutzt werden sollen, braucht es neben der inhaltlichen auch die filmische Beurteilung. Denn jedes Interview, das mit einer Kamera aufgezeichnet wurde, ist eine Inszenierung. Entweder haben die Macher (Kameramann/frau Interviewer/in) das Bild arrangiert, oder die Interviewten haben sich selbst "in Szene gesetzt". Die Autorin beschäftigt sich in ihrem Beitrag mit der Abbildung von Menschen im Interview und wie die gefilmten Bilder "gelesen" werden können.

West European leaders had good reasons to oppose US Vietnam war policy. It threatened to alter the global balance of power while igniting unrest at home. Such turbulence led to a radicalized political atmosphere domestically. In this new environment, the "New Left" established a powerful foothold among the "68-generation". In many West European countries the new radical left rejected the older Socialist and Communist parties in favor of more radical political alternatives. In Sweden the Social Democratic government struggled to maintain a workable relationship with Washington while at the same time placating domestic anti-war opinion – thus preventing this issue from being hijacked by the far left. How did the Swedish Social Democrats resolve this dilemma? Although this is the most written-about episode in Swedish postwar diplomacy, this is the first book to scrutinize the impact of Sweden's Vietnam War policy on its domestic politics.
