Summary/Abstract: The present article (as a first stage documentation for what aims to be a series of volumes dedicated to the Encyclopedia of Romanian Political Thinking included in an ongoing project of the Institute for Political Sciences and International Relations of the Romanian Academy's “Ion I. C. Brătianu” Institute of Bucharest) accepts, through the syntagm “The practical Camil Petrescu" an architecture of the chapters – A theory of values. Ethics and Noocracy from The Doctrine of Substance, absolutely practical and illustrative chapters of the philosophical system developed by Camil Petrescu, parts that complement and extend ontological considerations by ethical-political reflections, individualizing the political philosophy of the author. In this regard, we highlight the key nodes that may confer upon the Camilpetrescian system in general and noocracy in particular, both the qualities of Platonic tests and the values of a practical philosophical and political theory.
