Cultura vasalităţii în România post-comunistă
The response of the academic discourse within the public space is burdened with the significant limitation of the expression resources. The mass pertinence and the accent on the performer character of the discourse are exigencies which hinder the qualified expertise to offer significant alternatives to public policies thus decisively contributing to the process of modernization and Europeanization. The preeminence of the subtext over the text has transformed public discourse in a target of suspicion and all efforts of recalibration through argumentation on scientific bases are interpreted as an attempt of politization. Rigid under the grips of an artificial “strictness” the contemporary debates in Romania demonstrate the incapacity and lack of decisional quorum of an intellectuality discretely ground by the past’s cowardice. Tired of hard feelings and predisposed to compromise, the academic community has sabotaged (through the inconsistence and inconsequence of taking stand) the prestige which would have allowed the autochthonous “intelligentsia” to launch practical variants of moral reform within a society in which common Good has skillfully negotiated numerous masks, but does not yet find a credible face.
