Summary/Abstract: Romania’s perspectives of integration into the democratic world family grew considerably after December 1989. Consecutive “failed” privatizations led to the aggravation of poverty and increased the emigration of the active population in search of a job. Grave assaults upon the incipient Romanian democracy resulted in continuous delays in the process of integration in to NATO and EU. In the same time, the assimilation of advanced technology synchronised the young generation with the evolution of the global world, but the education level witnessed a constant downfall. These are just a few factors which the author stresses as fundamental in the Romanian transition towards a market economy.
