Summary/Abstract: At the beginning of the twentieth century, the Romanian society was facing a unprecedented challenge in its history. The main problem was the effort for modernization, due to the large costs which were threatening to radically transform the political, social and workforce between land owners and those who worked the land. The Agrarian reform of 1864 only partially fulfilled the expectations of all the involved parties, therefore the solving of this problem was major given that the agriculture area preserved itself as the main economic branch.
