Summary/Abstract: The „originality” of the Romanian transition from totalitarianism to democracy represents, in fact, the failure of this process. The power was not transferred from the hands of a leader or of a small group of discretionary leaders to the legal-rational-bureaucratic institutions, but to the large structures of new rich, which control the entire economic and political life of the country, including the political parties. The only way to cure the Romanian political life is to professionalize the politics, to provoke the politicians to live for politics not off politics. This vital goal could be reach by strictly bringing into force the EU rules and practice, especially the EU model of spending the public money.
