Onomastica din spaţiul public românesc actual. Considerente socio- şi psiholingvistice ale cercetării
Onomastics in the Contemporary Romanian Public Space: The Socio- and Psycholinguistic Aspects of a Research Project

Summary/Abstract: The idea of this study was born along with the research project designed to encourage the building of a young research team (TE), a project which won the CNCSIS competition in 2010, within the Human Resources program. The project ONOMASTICS IN THE CONTEMPORARY ROMANIAN PUBLIC SPACE: SOCIO- AND PSYCHOLINGUISTIC RESEARCH offers a novel, multidisciplinary approach, capable of unraveling the mechanisms that determine the choice and the use within a society of certain names, representative of the present-day Romanian public space. The research project discusses the least investigated segment of Onomastics: official names (names of public institutions, organizations, firms, brands, sports teams, places of worship etc.), which are different from anthroponyms and toponyms, active in post-revolution Romania.
