HINDERING THE PROCESS OF DEMOCRATIZATION IN ROMANIA AS A CONSEQUENCE OF THE SOCIAL PROTESTS IN THE EARLY 90s

Summary/Abstract: THE CASE OF ROMANIA - AT THE BEGINNING OF THE 90S – SHOWED A PARTICULARITY AS COMPARED TO THE REST OF POST-COMMUNIST STATES IN CENTRAL AND EASTERN EUROPE; DUE TO THE FACT THAT THE CHANGE OF THE TOTALITARIAN COMMUNIST REGIME DID NOT ACHIEVE THE QUIETNESS REQUIRED BY THE DEMOCRATIC CONSTRUCTION. IT IS A PECULIAR CASE IN THE FORMER SOVIET BLOC BECAUSE OF THE CONTINUATION OF THE SOCIAL PROTESTS AGAINST THE NEW PROVISIONAL GOVERNMENT (FOLLOWING THE REVOLUTION OF DECEMBER 1989). WE WILL GIVE A CHRONOLOGICAL PRESENTATION OF THE 1990 EVENTS AND WE WILL HIGHLIGHT BOTH THE NEGATIVE ASPECTS BEHIND THESE PROTESTS AND THE WAYS OF AVOIDING THEM.
