OPOZIȚIE ȘI PUTERE LA CUMPĂNA DINTRE SECOLE. CAZUL LUI ALEXANDRU MARGHILOMAN
OPPOSITION AND POWER AT THE TURNING POINT BETWEEN CENTURY. THE CASE OF ALEXANDRU MARGHILOMAN

Summary/Abstract: Present in the political life since 1884, Alexandru Marghiloman stood out, at the turn of the century, as one of the most important leaders of the Conservative Party. Occupying the ministerial portfolios of Justice, Foreign Affairs, Home Affairs, Finance, “the Wallach Lord” proved to be one of the personalities that marked the elegant and prosperous period called La Belle Époque. He contributed, through his efforts, to the modernization of Romania. The pursuit of his activity, carried out in the Council of Ministers or under the dome of the Parliament, is doubled, in this study, by a careful analysis of his political speeches. I analysed them because I wanted to bring up the fact that his political activity is deeply influenced by a programmatic and ideological dimension and in order to better explain the distance between Marghilomanʼs theory and practice.
