ETHNICAL IDENTITY AND THE [RESERVATION OF VALUES IN MULTIETHNIC COMMUNITIES (CASE STUDY: DUDESTII VECHI, TIMIS COUNTY)
Keywords:
concept of community, concept of interculturality, ethnic minority, national minorityAbstract
This article is based on the data provided by an actual
research carried out in 2013-2014 in a multiethnic community in
the Banat area, Timis County, namely in the village of Dudestii-
Vechi (Old Dudesti). In this study, I have tried to find out from
the inhabitants of the studied community what their perception of
their own person is, but also of those who live with them. In this
respect, I have developed and applied a psycho-sociological
questionnaire, highlighting these aspects. Thus, in DudeÅŸtiiVechi,
the number of questionnaires applied was 590, and they were
applied to the following groups of people.
