O maturitate imperfectăce ne spun alegerile din noiembrie despre evoluţia democraţiei româneşti
A Faulty Maturity: What Do the November Elections Tell About Romanian Democracy?

Summary/Abstract: The author thinks that the November’s parliamentary elections were a test of whether democracy in Romania has matured to such an extent that the term ‘post-communist’ has become a redundant, even misleading, descriptor of Romania’s political system. His argument is simple: the campaign, the electoral process, and the protracted efforts at coalition-building in December were all far from perfect. However, the particular nature of that imperfection suggests that Romania is now a mature democracy – one that does not merit the title of ‘post-communist.’
