Democrație şi naționalism. Problema globalizării la începutul secolului al XX-lea
Democracy and Nationalism. Globalization at the Beginning of the 20th Century

Summary/Abstract: The present paper starts from the modern democracy’s tendency of leveling every human society and of imposing the same rules and same lifestyle. Against this background, of democratic globalization, and by referring to A.C. Popovici’s ideas, we presented the reactions within the Romanian space to this universal process, from the beginning of the 20th century. A.C. Popovici is a political thinker, conservative, a critic of both illuminist rationalism and modern democracy. He thinks that democracy, as modern civilization itself, is founded on certain technical, leveling procedures, which would lead to the extinction of the peoples’s different identities. This is the reason why A.C. Popovici is a critic of democratic globalization, who opposes the national principle to the democratic one.
