Summary/Abstract: The establishment of a research strategy doesn’t necessarily suppose a specific standardization. Nothing seems to impose to the researcher a projected structure as a basis for his future approach. Our article attempts to identify a few methodological landmarks for a research strategy so that the researcher’s approach would have bigger chances to be a coherent one and thus bring results in a shorter period of time and with fewer resources. Furthermore, a research that brings certain results will have bigger chances to be recognized and validated if specialists can also find the necessary arguments for a correct methodological approach. The suggested methodological issues of a research strategy follow a logical succession, developed from the identification of the research problem (ontological option) to the validation of the research results. The choice and the construction of the actual strategy remain an object of the correct positioning of the researcher as far as the accomplishment of his approach is concerned. Our material is just a general schema of the research strategy, not a detailed presentation of every research phase – these details will be part of several other articles.
