The country was wholly absent from the international scientific world. During...
What is essential and highly relevant for the debate we intend to have in this article is the European and Christian (non-Muslim) side of The Sublime Porte.

The close relationship that prevailed between the two World Wars between the Romanian intellectuals and the political power, combined with the departure of social scientists from the principle of axiological neutrality, represented, during the reference period, a fact of life at european level and not in the least just accidents for Gustian monogra...
O discuție despre viața politică românească din ultimul secol nu poate să înceapă fără înțelegerea valorilor culturale în jurul cărora se agregă națiunea română.

Înrudit prin căsătorie sau descendent direct din trei familii boiereşti valahe de rang terţiar - Brătăşanu (de secol XVII), Djuvara (de secol XVIII) şi Pangal (de secol XIX) -, care, împreună, au dat Românei moderne cel puţin doi miniştri, un subsecretar de stat şi şase deputaţi sau senatori, Jean Pangal este personajul central al acestui volum.

As a result of bankruptcies, restrictions in economic activity or application of " sacrifice c...
The purpose of this article is to challenge Ştefan Zeletin's classical sociological thesis (regarding the economic and politic extinction of the great Wallachian boyar-class) which is not historically sustainable neither on economic, nor on political grounds. From an economic point of view, we argue that the great Wallachian boyar families expanded...
„Periferia ca istorie” ar putea fi cel mai potrivit titlu pentru lucrarea de faţă; o temă care nu este detaliată doar din perspectivă spaţial-temporală cât mai ales din perspectiva comportamental-patologică a locuitorilor. Pentru a realiza această completare autorul a folosit informaţii şi interpretări de antropologie culturală, studii de sociologi...
