Summary/Abstract: The study is a description of cultural consumption styles of Romanian citizens based on the “Barometer of Cultural Consumption” survey conducted in 2005. Using principal component analysis method, the author defines nine types of cultural consumption which are presented in detail then the frequency of their occurrence is analyzed in several culturally segmented social categories. The main conclusion of the analysis is that social and cultural stratification, even if they interfere, do not overlap; however, the cultural stratification combines class criteria through differentiations along economic resources, place of residence, age or gender.
