Since Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine, repressive legislative changes and tightened war-censorship prompted a new wave of media professionals leaving the Federation. This study explores how Russian journalists resettling in the Baltic states articulate their professional identity and view the Russian versus Baltic governments’ attitudes while adapting abroad. While recognizing the Russian oppositional sphere’s role in democracy promotion, this research draws insights from thirteen semi-structured interviews conducted in the fall of 2023 with exiled media professionals in Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania. The study employs Mark Deuze’s ideal typical values on professional ideology (public service, immediacy, autonomy, ethics, and objectivity) supplemented by Patric Raemy’s take on resilience theory, utilizing a hybrid inductive-deductive methodology with apriori themes of a) oppositionality and ideology, b) logistics and migration as well as c) adaptation and resilience. Findings showed that exiled journalists’ articulations of anti-war positions were intrinsically connected to their professional roles. There were also strong commitments to transparent information access. In parallel, editorials experienced either de- or reiterated hierarchization stemming from working in crisis. Key professional challenges included circumventing censorship, financial struggles, and losing access to domestic informants. Adaptive and maladaptive mechanisms ranged from being psychosocial to technical. Adaptation overall was reflected in strengthened corporate solidarity and in exiled media outlets’ joint moral-legal responsibilities for proxy-reporters / Sedan Rysslands fullskaliga invasion av Ukraina har repressiva lagändringar och skärpt krigscensur föranlett en ny våg av yrkesverksamma inom mediebranschen som lämnat federationen. Denna studie undersöker hur ryska journalister som flyttat till de baltiska länderna artikulerar sin professionella identitet och betraktar den ryska kontra de baltiska regeringarnas attityder, samtidigt som de anpassar sitt arbete utomlands. Med emfas på den ryska oppositionella sfärens demokratifrämjande roll, utgår denna forskning från semistrukturerade intervjuer med tretton exiljournalister i Estland, Lettland och Litauen utförda hösten 2023. Studien nyttjar Mark Deuze idealtypiska värden kopplade till journalisters professionella ideologi (public service, omedelbarhet, autonomi, etik och objektivitet) vilka kompletteras av Patric Raemys bidrag till resiliensteori. Uppsatsen använder sig av en induktiv-deduktiv tematisk hybridmetod med tre apriori-teman: a) oppositionalitet och ideologi, b) logistik och migration, liksom c) anpassning och resiliens. Resultaten visade att exiljournalisters artikulering av sin antikrigsställning var inneboende kopplad till deras professionella rolluppfattning. Det rådde även en stark pliktkänsla i att försäkra transparent tillgång till information. Parallellt upplevde exilredaktionerna antingen försvagade eller förstärkta internhierarkier till följd av sitt arbete i kris. Professionella nyckelutmaningar innefattade kringgående av censur, ekonomiska svårigheter och en förlorad tillgång till inhemska informanter och källor. Så kallade ’adaptiva’ och ’maladaptiva’ mekanismer hyste alltifrån en psykosocial till teknisk karaktär. Gruppens anpassning överlag speglades i en stärkt företagssolidaritet och i exilmediers gemensamma morala och juridiska ansvar för sina proxyreportrar.

This thesis examines the media strategies employed by leading figures and organizations in the Russian political opposition landscape, namely Alexei Navalny's Anti-Corruption Foundation (ACF), Dmitry Gudkov's Secretariat of European Russians, Mikhail Khodorkovsky's Russian Action Committee, Feminist Anti-War Resistance, and Ilya Ponomarev. Using critical discourse analysis as its core methodology, the study aims to unravel the complex dynamics between stated values and media strategies. The strategies analyzed include 'Investigative Outreach,' 'Diaspora Engagement,' 'Media Magnate Mobilisation,' 'Grassroots Guerrilla Artivism,' and 'Dual Role Diplomacy.' The study is framed within the theoretical constructs of social constructivism and media frame theory. These frameworks allow for a critical examination of how the media strategies of these entities are socially constructed and framed, thereby shaping public perception and narrative. Key findings reveal that although these strategies amplify political reach and influence, they also pose challenges such as dilution of core messages and ethical quandaries.

[pt] Como entender a obra literária dedicada às imagens de infância escrita por Walter Benjamin? Especialmente se ele enuncia essa obra, como fez nas Palavras Prévias de Infância berlinense: 1900, em 1938, enquanto um procedimento de vacinação (Verfarhen der Impfung)? Esta tese visa compreender e apresentar essa vacinação. Para isso seguimos o rastro que liga as imagens de infância à nostalgia, uma vez que é dessa relação que decorre a vacinação. Benjamin preparava-se para o exílio, contudo ele já se encontrava exilado. Então, do que se tratava, efetivamente, quando ele escreveu essas palavras? Tratava-se de uma despedida de casa, da cidade de Berlim, mas também do permanente sentimento de perda sobre a irreversibilidade do tempo. O que isso significa? Que, uma vez sitiada entre duas guerras mundiais, Infância berlinense foi concebida na contramão de uma experiência histórica, cujo resultado se antevia no horizonte mundial, em virtude de outra experiência (Erfahrung) sobre a qual Benjamin refletia desde a juventude. Esta seria pautada por uma transmissibilidade da linguagem humana ciente da verdadeira perda de experiência: o isolamento, o esquecimento, o mutismo e a morte. É nesse sentido que a obra procura chegar a uma coletividade através de imagens narrativas que suscitam a memória dos leitores. É por isso necessário entender os processos de escavação iniciados por Benjamin para encontrar, enterrados, objetos perdidos que tocam ainda nas raias da vida. Para tal, apresentamos três capítulos: o primeiro versa sobre as relações da memória e a filosofia da história; o segundo, sobre a concepção moderna de nostalgia e aquela que Benjamin apresenta; o terceiro, sobre os processos de escavação e a infância em Benjamin. Para ele, o passado é um outrora em direção ao qual se vai quando se encontra a cognoscibilidade dos seus vestígios no agora. Estes vestígios podem ser fragmentos, ruínas e imagens, deixados por uma experiência efêmera. Nesse caso, do que se sentiria nostalgia? Devemos responder sabendo que existem pelo menos dois tipos de nostalgia: uma que apela à atividade da linguagem e da arte e outra inoperante, até nociva. O exílio, como expressão limite do isolamento humano, exige um posicionamento diante da vida. Analisaremos como responderam Adorno, Benjamin e Brecht. Por fim, chegaremos às diferentes abordagens de Benjamin sobre o tema da infância: desde a análise de livros pedagógicos à criação de um programa para um teatro infantil proletário; passando pelas transmissões radiofônicos que o filósofo redigiu e emitiu, até chegar às imagens de infância. Em Infância berlinense Benjamin opera a mais misteriosa de todas as capacidades humanas que é transformar imagens em histórias e histórias em imagens. Ao tornar uma vivência muda numa experiência transmissível apresentava-se uma arte da nostalgia porvir. / [en] How to understand the literary work dedicated to childhood images, written by Walter Benjamin, especially if he states this work as a process of inoculation (Verfarhen der Impfung) in the Preface of Berlin Childhood around 1900? This thesis wishes to comprehend and present this inoculation. For such, we follow traces which link childhood images to nostalgia, once the inoculation results from such link. Benjamin said he had prepared to the exile, while he had already exiled. So, what had he meant effectively when he wrote those words? He meant he turned his home out, Berlin, but also he turned out from the permanent feeling of lost, generated for the irreversibility of time. Once besieged between two world wars, Berlin Childhood had been written against of an historical experience which results were predictable in international horizon, thanks other concept of experience (Erfahrung) in which Benjamin had reflected about since his youngness. Experience would be shaped by transmissibility of human language, and we must to have in mind a kind of lost of experience: insulation, forgiveness, muteness and death. In such way, the work seeks to build collectiveness through narrative images aroused in the memory of readers. So, we ought to comprehend the process of excavation started by Benjamin to find buried and lost objects which deals with the borders of life. For such, we present three chapters: the first, on the relations between memory and philosophy of history; the second, on the modern conception of nostalgia and that, showed by Benjamin; and the last, on the process of excavation and childhood by Benjamin. For him, the past is an ertswhile which we go in its direction when we found the cognoscibility of its traces in a now. These traces may be fragments, ruins and images, let for a short-lived experience. In such case, what kind of nostalgia would we fell? We ought answer with two kinds of nostalgia: one which appeals to the speech and art activity and other inoperative, until harmful. As the limit expression of human insulation, the exile enforced a life positioning. We analyze how Adorno, Benjamin and Brecht answered to that. In the end, we developed different approaches on Benjamin reading of childhood: since his analysis of pedagogical books to the creation of a program to the proletarian childish theater, passing by radio transmissions written and broadcast by him, as such childhood images. In Berlin Childhood, Benjamin operates the most mysterious human capacity which is to transform images in stories and stories in images. Changing mute livings in broadcastable experiences, he showed for us a becoming art of nostalgia.

[pt] Este trabalho estuda a sétima visão do profeta Zacarias (Zc 5,5-11). A pesquisa surgiu da análise das interpretações que apresentam as seguintes questões: 1. tendência misógina, que atribui à mulher o mal, em detrimento do significado do todo que foi revelado: o efá; o olho deles em toda a terra; os elementos utilizados para tampar o efá e aprisionar a mulher (disco, pedra e chumbo); 2. a remoção do mal, sem morte e destruição: duas mulheres com asas como de cegonha, com vento em suas asas, levantam o efá entre a terra e os céus e o levam para Senaar, onde uma casa será construída, preparada, e onde será assentado sobre sua base. Chama a atenção uma mulher sentada e aprisionada dentro de um efá. O objetivo do estudo é compreender o sentido da extraordinária imagem visionada e dos elementos revelados, no seu contexto sócio-religioso, e o significado teológico da visão. Para isso, foram feitos pesquisa bibliográfica dos últimos 50 anos, análise textual com utilização do método histórico-crítico e análise sincrônica, considerando o texto canônico. Diferentemente das interpretações existentes, que consideram a mulher pecadora e sedutora, concluiu-se que determinado grupo que retornava do exílio na Babilônia, com ideais proféticos, fiel à religião e às tradições, pretendia a mulher sentada no meio do efá (submetida) e prisioneira, por se mostrar com protagonismo com o qual o grupo não concordava. A remoção do mal com final feliz é a resposta de YHWH a este grupo, uma teologia, na qual prevalece a Pedagogia e o Amor divinos para com a mulher e os transgressores, a quem YHWH concede espaço e cuidado para que voltem e se reintegrem à sociedade. / [en] This essay aims to study the seventh vision of the prophet Zechariah (Zech 5:5-11). The research arose from the analysis of interpretations presenting the following issues: 1. a misogynist tendency, which associates women with wickedness to the detriment of the significance of all that was revealed: the ephah, their eye through all the earth; the elements used to cover the ephah and entrap the woman inside it (disk, stone, and lead); 2. the removal of wickedness without death and destruction: two women with wings like the wings of a stork, with wind in their wings, lift the ephah up between the earth and the heaven and take it to Shinar, where a house will be built and prepared for it, and it will be set there upon her own base. The image of an entrapped woman sitting inside an ephah is noteworthy. The objective of this study is to understand the meaning of the extraordinary image envisioned and the elements revealed in it in their socio-religious context, as well as the theological meaning of the vision. For this, a bibliographical research of the last 50 years was carried out alongside with textual analysis using the historical-critical method and synchronic analysis considering the canonical text. Unlike the existing interpretations that consider women as sinful and seductive, this paper concludes that a certain group of exiles returning from Babylon, faithful to religion and tradition and with prophetic ideals, intended for the woman to be sitting in the ephah, (submitted) as a prisoner, for presenting herself with a leading role with which they did not agree. The removal of wickedness with a happy ending is YHWH s response to this group, a theology in which divine Pedagogy and Love prevails towards women and offenders, to whom YHWH grants space and care to allow them to return and be reintegrated into society.

L’histoire moderne de la Pologne est marquée au sceau des migrations et de l’exil. Depuis les années 1830, il n’est pas une décennie au cours de laquelle des Polonais n’aient pas trouvé un refuge patriotique ou économique, en Grande-Bretagne, de façon transitoire ou définitive. Néanmoins, avant 1939, un nombre réduit de citoyens polonais réside en Grande-Bretagne. En mai 1940, la chute de la France, terre d’accueil provisoire, précipite l’arrivée de soldats polonais et du Gouvernement en exil de Pologne. La Conférence de Yalta en février 1945 ramènera les civils polonais sur les chemins de la diaspora, mais les quelque 160 000 Polonais sont pour la plupart nés dans la jeune Deuxième République de Pologne, indépendante de 1918 à 1939. Leurs origines socioculturelles sont variées. Néanmoins, quelles que soient leurs aspirations pour l’avenir, ils pensent presque tous les poursuivre dans une Pologne indépendante à l’issue de la Seconde Guerre mondiale. Le monde bipolaire de 1945 en décide autrement car leur patrie ne va recouvrer qu’une indépendance toute relative. / Poland’s modern history has been bearing the mark of migration and exile. Ever since the 1830s, every decade has seen Poles finding a patriotic or economic refuge in Great-Britain, temporarily or permanently. However, before 1939, a small number of Polish-born people lived in Britain. In May 1940, the fall of France that had been a provisional asylum, hastened the influx of Polish soldiers and of the Polish Government-in-Exile, while the outcomes of the Yalta Conference in February 1945 led the Polish civilians onto the way of diaspora again. Most of those 160,000 Poles were born into the infant Second Republic of Poland that was independent from 1918 to 1939. Their backgrounds were varied. Nevertheless, whatever their aspirations for the future might have been, most expected to pursue them in an independent Poland after WWII. The bipolar world of 1945 decreed otherwise, for their motherland only gained back a very relative independence.

Exile has always played a significant role in the history of the Romanian nation. On that account the Romanian literature written in exile after 1945 presents an important part of the history of Romanian literature as a whole. Due to its linguistic and cultural affinity France became one of the main host countries for Romanian exile writers. The introductive chapter is dedicated to description, classification and history of this phenomenon in Romanian context; furthermore, it deals with the position and reception of exile literature in Romania. According to their departure date in exile two generations of authors are presented: Mircea Eliade, Virgil Ierunca, Monica Lovinescu who left Romania in 1940s and Paul Goma, Bujor Nedelcovici, Dumitru Ţepeneag who decided to leave in France in 1970s and 1980s. The chosen works help us to get to know to the writers' creation and lives during the process of integration and, simultaneously, we get familiar with the communist Romania that became the main topics of the exile writers who are chosen as representatives of their exile generation. Through them the basic survey of this phenomenon in Romanian literature was drawn up.
