Grupul de socializare apreciativ. Un model de creativitate sociala colaborativa/ Appreciative Socialization Group. A model of social colaborative creativity (Romanian Version) Authors: Simona PONEA, Antonio SANDU Lumen Publishing House www.edituralumen.ro

www.librariavirtuala.com Iasi, Romania 2011 No. pg. 220

Appreciative socialization group represents an innovative way of personal development. Through this paper we want to highlight the importance of both positive thinking and positive acting, as two of the most important steps necessary in the process of personal development. This model was first implemented with a group of persons with physical disabilities and then was theoretical developed in Lumen Research Centre in Humanistic Sciences.

We will present in this paper those elements that were combined, and that facilitated the evolution of the proposed model, and also its transformation in a successful model of personal development.

Migratie si dezvoltare. Aspecte socio-economice si tendinte/ Migration and development. Social and economical aspects and trends (Romanian Version) Author: Daniela Petronela FERARU Lumen Publishing House www.edituralumen.ro www.librariavirtuala.com Iasi, Romania 2011 No. pg. 278

Migration is the social process that has an increasingly higher influence in the current Romanian society although in the world Romanian migration is only at the beginning. International migration is a very developed phenomenon in terms of market globalization. Being selective and dynamic migration requires a differentiated and complex approach.

It should be noted from the outset that this paper does not pretend to reference a scientific debate but rather wants to build a series of questions, seek answers launching assumptions that lead to challenges in the debate on migration and development. The entire approach of the subject is only the beginning of a wider research for doctoral thesis.

2010 Social Capital in the Romania of Beginning Milenium. Traveler in the countrz of no friends / Capital social în România începutului de Mileniu: Drumeţ în ţara celor fără de prieteni Authors: Bogdan VOICU Editura Lumen www.edituralumen.ro www.librariavirtuala.com Iasi, 2010 / Nr. pag. 172

Let us imagine a random person. If you would be born in 1550 in Europe, our person in discusion would probably had at least 3-4 brothers and dozens of cousins. Let's say that there would be no rank of nobility. It would be lived with his parents for a while, then most likely between 17 and 22 years will go married. It would be living in his parents'house or in his wife's parents' house or in a nearby house, quite probably in the yard of parenthood. It had many opportunities to interact with his many cousins, brothers and brothers in law. Would be quickly made at least 3-4 children. His life would not a long one. At 50 years he would be an old person, this in case he would reach this age. In elderly stage, his family would be taken care of him. At this moment he would certainly had a bunch of grandchildren, and his first orn children would already had their families. Mainly, interactions with others outside the family would have been quite rare;caught in his family,would be deprived of the physical time to interact frequently with his friends ....

Social Work Treaty. Protection of specific and auto-marginalized populations /Tratat de asistenţă socială. Protecţia populaţiilor specifice şi automarginalizate Author: Vasile MIFTODE Editura Lumen www.edituralumen.ro www.librariavirtuala.com Iaşi, 2010 Nr. pag. 554

There is an opinion that considers that in Romania the social work practice was "released" after the Revolution of '89, until then beeing practiced only "ideological policy" to support disadvantaged and vulnerable populations! Not true, especially if we consider the pre-communist era traditions, the values and the "community arrangements", which operated in the Romanian social space! For a better understanding of the social protection status in the traditional society, we will build a propositional paradigm, including the most significant elements. Despite the fact that there were no professionals in this field - in the modern sense of the term - and thus no specialized services, the traditional human communities provide to individual, family, and generally all those who are in a crisis situation, a real and effective social protection. Then how to explain that in the traditional village, for example, there is only as an exception, disabled people, abandoned elderly, "street children", massive divorce, extended family violence etc.

Social Values of post-Communist Transition / Valori sociale ale tranziţiei post-comuniste Autori: Mălina VOICU Editura Lumen www.edituralumen.ro www.librariavirtuala.com Iaşi, 2010 Nr. pag. 147

The last twenty years have been marked by

profound social, economic and political changes occurring in post-communist societies. These transformations were aimed both institutional and cultural changes, and also in terms of value. All over Central and Eastern Europe has moved from Communist totalitarianism to pluralist democracy, from planned to market economy. These changes have worked in tandem with changing social attitudes and values, how people perceive and relate to society as a whole, as well as various institutions and its components. This volume addresses precisely this latter aspect of the changes produced in post-communist societies in the past two decades - cultural change - value. The paper focuses on three different dimensions of social values change occurred in the last two decades: support for a democratic political system, religion and gender. Each of these themes is addressed both from a comparative perspective longitudinal and transverse ................

What is a lifestyle? How can we say that person A

has X lifestyle and person B has Y lifestyle? What are Romanians lifestyles today? What factors cause them to choose that lifestyle? In fact, we can say that the Romanians opted for a lifestyle, or because socioeconomic living conditions, they live in crashes or in a certain way? What impact have the lifestyles upon the satisfaction with life, when they control the resources that they hold the values we adhere to and how they define their situation? These are major questions that try to give an answer in this paper.

This paper treats a variety of issues arising from hearing loss, both from theoretical as well as social and practical aspect, offering those interested a more realistic description of the Deaf community viewed from the inside. The entire contents of the book sometimes takes the form of a manifest, especially because I was totally deprived o hearing since early childhood and I am an active member of this community. In this capacity I can provide a little-known perspective on issues facing this community and some solutions for solving them. We addressed in this context, the efficiency of services provided by the society to those people.

Both theoretical, framework and applicative aspects are tackled. Also, the models are integrated into a perspective on a general approach of designing programs to optimize the psychosocial environment at the organizational level, to prevent stress and maintain the employees’ health state.

Impactul programelor de asistenţă socială în penitenciar/ The Impact of Social Work Programs in Prison (Romanian Version) Author: Adina RACHIERU Lumen Publishing House www.edituralumen.ro www.librariavirtuala.com Iaşi, Romania 2010 No. pg. 132, format

For most of us, only the idea of deprivation of

liberty - even legitimate achieved - is able to make us tense. Like haunted places in the past, prison surroundings seem to borrow something from the distortion around. The prison is a place which in the social imaginary belongs to both those who commit severe, antisocial acts and those who must ensure us that the convicts will not leave earlier than established by the court. They are supplemented by the image of his relatives or friends visiting those imprisoned. There is however a different category of people for whom the space of confinement is familiar. They are, as a matter of fact, the only ones who go there voluntarily.

Prevenirea şi sancţionarea violenţei domestice prin normele dreptului penal/ Prevention and Santioning of Domestic Violence through Penology (Romanian Version) Author: Diana Loredana HOGAŞ Lumen Publishing House www.edituralumen.ro www.librariavirtuala.com

Iaşi, Romania 2010 Domestic violence is a universal phenomenon

present everywhere, from the smallest human settlements to the greatest cities, from emergent countries to the developed ones. Domestic violence is a myth or a phenomenon of significant size. We "hear it" daily in mass-media, we face with it on the street in fugitive captured scenes, and sometimes enters in our homes due to very thin walls of apartment blocks, as a cruel reality, that we can not accept, but that we can control it on a small scale as individuals.

The extent of family violence is currently one of the most serious social problems facing contemporary societies, including Romania. Present in all forms of aggression (maltreatment of partners, abuse against children, parents, elders or other relatives, incest, rape, etc..), this form of violence is added to the wave of aggression exercised outside the family, thus contributing to a social climate dominated by anxiety, fear and pain.

Gestionarea crizelor de imagine. Criza din Tibet/ Image Crisis Management. Tibet Crisis (Romanian Version) Author: Crînguţa Irina PELEA Lumen Publishing House www.edituralumen.ro www.librariavirtuala.com Iaşi, Romania 2010 No. pg. 242, format

Contemporary society is characterized by an

unprecedented proliferation crisis and the lack of cohesion affects every area of public life. In this situation, it becomes more difficult to overcome and successful manage a crisis: the global political situation is uncertain, natural disasters are frequently increasing, armed conflicts are multiplying and financial fluctuations are more often. In this difficult and tense context, it is necessary to adopt appropriate strategies for crisis management to maintain credibility and public image capital.The main hypothesis underlying the research approach was that a crisis, even if is thought to be "internal", will no doubt affect a;so the external. This is the case with the Beijing government which has labeled Tibetan riots as a "purely internal matter", deliberately ignoring the external context - community and media - the international media. Although the crisis was considered a national and managed as such by Chinese officials, it has seriously affected China's international image.

Uniforma vestimentară. Ipostază a conformării astăzi/ Fashion uniform. A Way of Compliance Nowadays (Romanian Version) Author: Adrian STANCIU Lumen Publishing House www.edituralumen.ro www.librariavirtuala.com Iaşi, Romania 2010 No. pg. 110, format

The interest in the phenomenon of social

compliance has emerged with the experiments of Solomon E. Asch (1951, 1956) who proposed an experimental design based on the results of another classic study: the adherence process to the rules of the group (Muzafer Sherif, 1936).

We identified an interesting phenomenon in the current culture change opinions based on what others say, even if we don’t really believe what we got to say. A concrete example is provided by evaluation of clothes items; I often perceived a discrepancy between what a person says and makes. In the groups of women, especially female students, there is a tendency to go shopping together. Thereby messages about the chothes are issued, though some say they are beautiful or ugly, we expect the buyer to take into account the views of others.

Seminarii Apreciative/ Appreciative Tutorials (Romanian Version) Author: Antonio SANDU (coord.) Lumen Publishing House www.edituralumen.ro www.librariavirtuala.com Iaşi, Romania 2010

The volume accomplished by

“Supervision and Social Planning” Master students and coordinated by Mr. Ph. D. Antonio SANDU is a considerable attempt to implement the appreciative methods in social practice as it is reflected in the daily experience of our students. The issue of the volume is welcomed in the context of transformation efforts from social services still based on deficiency paradigm, into real appreciative services. Issues covered in the volume are focused on different areas, from parental education to appreciative theology via social innovation and the creation of social support groups . The fact that the students are very interested in the domain, as well as the scientific research, can only be pleasing, since we hope that they will take further action by applying appreciative methods to their jobs and in their social practice. Beyond the academic content of this book, we appreciate the idea of transforming a potentiality, that of the students, to make scientific research by bringing up their their work into public debate of experts.

Migraţia de revenire/ Recursive Migration (Romanian Version) Author: Camelia Virginia BADEA Lumen Publishing House www.edituralumen.ro www.librariavirtuala.com Iaşi, Romania 2009 No. pg. 180, A 5 format

This book is an update of the license paper work presented in June session 2008. Given the novelty of the theme and the original way of the presentation, we believed that its publication would bring in the limelight in public discussions not only the effects but also the phenomenon of recursive migration for the study and discovery in time of the means of (re) integration of migrants in their communities, of adaptation to Romanian reality, especially those who have left an extended period.

The publication of this book intends to cover the needs of the minor, which is to have rights regardless of ethnicity, nationality, sex, age, religion, sickness, disability and other criteria.

Tehnici afirmativ - apreciative în dezvoltarea organizaţională. O socio-pedagogie a succesului/ Appreciative Techniques in Organizational Development (Romanian Version) Author: Antonio Ştefan SANDU Lumen Publishing House www.edituralumen.ro www.librariavirtuala.com

Iaşi, Romania 2009 No. pg. 139, B5 JIS format

The “Appreciative Techniques in Organizational Development” volum, published by Antonio Sandu, presents a model of organizational development from a innovation perspective centered on success and positive assessment, that is the appreciative inquiry model as it was proposed by Cooperrider and Bush. Integrating the appreciative inquiry in a cultural context dominated by the transition from post to transmodernism, the author shows its origins in client-centered psychotherapy, proposed by Carl Rogers, constructionist sociologies, especially those in Burr's version, in the new religious current inspired by New Age, and neuro-programming techniques as they were made by Bandler and Grinder.

This work, in which the evolution of HIV / AIDS is presented globally, regionally and nationally, is intended as an analysis of the factors contributing to the HIV / AIDS escalade, followed by an evaluation of the measures to prevent HIV / AIDS in Romania and finally, a recommendation to increase the capacity of protecting and fighting against this syndrome. When I started this book, in early spring 2007, I tried to use the most recent data in analyzing this syndrome. Meanwhile, other editions of numerous reports that underpin this work have emerged.

Teoria fericirii în asistenţa socială. De la managementul îngrijirii la managementul fericiri/ Happiness Theory in Social Work. From Care Management to Happiness Management (Romanian Version) Author: Petru ŞTEFĂROI Lumen Publishing House

www.edituralumen.ro www.librariavirtuala.com Iaşi, Romania 2009 No. pg. 190, format More than ten years ago, after I started to practice the profession of psychologist in education and protection of children in difficulty, I was unpleasantly surprised by the excessive concern that is placed on the instrumental and behaviour side of the personality and problems that children have and the unconcern for the soul, the spiritual, empathic, subjective, emotional side of children - both in terms of knowledge / evaluation / diagnosis and the education, care and intervention. This book brings together three major aspects of social and human fields: social work, management and psychology, presenting a series of paradigms, concepts and theories on the ontogenesis and the role of the soul, difficult to understand without a knowledge of their origin.

Cercetarea politicilor sociale/ Social Politics Research (Romanian Version) Author: Ana-Maria PREOTEASA Lumen Publishing House www.edituralumen.ro www.librariavirtuala.com Iaşi, Romania 2009 No. pg. 207, format

The concept of social politics is very broad, and my experience as a researcher in social politics often made me wonder if there is no possibility to include the main scientific approaches in a systematic frame. In the study of social politics an active attitudeis preferred, to approach a specific politic, in terms of evaluating them, comparing them and analyzing the problems that have resulted. Methodology works in social politics are less numerous. The explanation may be related to the increased interest towards specific research (applied) but also the assumption that the methodology is the same as that of social science research.

O lume diferită, o lume la fel. Integrarea socială a persoanelor cu dizabilităţi locomotorii/ A Different World, the Same World. Social and Professional Integration of Persons With Locomotor Disabilities (Romanian Version) Author: Simona PONEA Lumen Publishing House www.edituralumen.ro


Social exclusion of disadvantaged groups is currently a problem encountered in most modern societies. This is manifested in various forms in society, "helping" the impossibility of accessing the different systems by individuals. We propose in this paper to analyze the social exclusion of persons with locomotor disabilities. Special emphasis is placed on redefyning concepts such as equality, participation, involvement, accessibility, social partnership, which together form the process of integration. It refers to a total of interdependent "actions" that can ensure the change of the Romanian social system. Whether we accept or not, change is the process which "the disability disability" needs to achieve equality. Author

No. pg. 291, format

This work represents an early step of a journey to maturity in a field of social life, identifying ways of investigation, analysis and diagnosis, providing topics and replies regarding the subject. This approach provides a space for dialogue on natural disasters and their implications in the daily cultural rhetoric. The first part of the work submits to the reader major themes of reflection on social, human and psychological implications of the natural disasters on the communities, based on the dramatic experiences of humanity and on the literature about this domain. The first two chapters provide an analytical perspective on natural disasters: fundamentals, hazards, vulnerabilities, phenomenology.

Generaţii în schimbare/ Changing Generations (Romanian Version) Author: Simona BRANC Lumen Publishing House www.edituralumen.ro www.librariavirtuala.com Iaşi, Romania 2008 No. pg. 299, format

Simona Branc approaches the issue of family education in Banat from a generational perspective. As expected, she feels the need to define and clarify the theoretical and methodological work. It is flexible, based on a very good knowledge of the main directions in which the sociological research has defined itself, including the Romanian one, suggesting the multiplicity of perspectives in which the subject may be approached. The author’s research is mainly based on constructivist theories of reality, the symbolic interactionism, the ethnomethodology, grounded theory, invoking a qualitative research, oral history and methods of analysis of life story. It's essentially a real deployment of competent and elegantly organized potential, which is not lacking a certain amount of didactic value.

This paper has intended to identify the perception which persons with visual deficiency have about information on physical accessibility as well as their social integration compared with the perception of people without disabilities on the same issues. By identifying the problems that visual deficiency persons face in the above areas, there are expected the decrease or even elimination of those difficulties through the important role which social work plays in intervention. They were identified problems such like: difficulties in physical accessibility to means of public transport, access to public and private institutions, poor access to everything concerning information (especially academic) and social integration difficulties.

Condiţiile deţinuţilor din România înaintea aderării la Uniunea Europeană/ Conditions of Convicts from Romania before its Adherence to the European Union (Romanian Version) Author: Daniela Petronela FERARU Lumen Publishing House www.edituralumen.ro


This work contains three projects grouped into three main sections, projects that give to the entire work a full sociological reflection which can be successfully implemented in an epistemological perspective. I speak also in the present study, about stigmatization and de-stigmatization, of some differences that exist and I try folding data into a social construction, of identity pathology, of evil intent, of determinism. This way I offer different interpretations throughout the research work, with a rich data provided by field research and data offered by the most-known Romanian national and local newspapers.

Iaşi, Romania 2008 No. pg. 151, format

The main topic approached in this research, which is gender, refers to psychological, social and cultural differences between women and men, what femininity and masculinity are. The interest in investigating gender and how it is constructed from pre-school has both qualitative reasons for the scarcity of research with children in the Romanian landscape, and practical reasons, to summarize some studies that make recommendations to parents and teachers to remove gender stereotypes and valuing the potential of both girls and boys. The logic of this qualitative research was to describe the universe / universes of the Romanian pre-school, in the construction of concepts related to gender on a group of equals, but with a permanent filter in respect of children's rights perspective.

The degree of social danger that acts of homicide represent is very high, putting in jeopardy not only the security of each person, but also the entire community. This is because, without the legal framework to ensure respect for the lives of individuals, a peaceful coexistence is noz possible – both at micro and macro level. Although acts of murder seriously harm the same social relations, is likely to result in a person's death; the degree of social danger posed by each one is different, in relation to form of guilt, relationship between offender and victim, the way of commiting the crime.

Conceptualizarea abuzului şi neglijării copilului în familie/ Conceptualisation of child abuse and neglect in the family (Romanian Version) Author: Mihai-Bogdan IOVU Lumen Publishing House www.edituralumen.ro www.librariavirtuala.com


Violence against children remains largely hidden, for various reasons. One reason is fear: many children are afraid to talk about incidents involving violent acts against them. In many cases, parents, who should protect their children, keep the silence when the act of violence has been commited by the spouse or another family member by a strong member of society, such as an employer, a police officer or a leader of the community. Fear exists especially in places where the "honor" of the family is placed above the safety and welfare of children. In particular, rape or other forms of sexual violence can lead to ostracism, other violence or even death.

Generaţii în schimbare. Modele de educaţie familială în Banatul secolului XX/ Changing Generation. Models of Family Education in Banat in the XXth Century (Romanian Version) Author: Simona BRANC Lumen Publishing House www.edituralumen.ro


Simona Branc approaches the issue of family education in Banat, Romania from a generational perspective. As expected, she feels the need to define and clarify the theoretical and methodological work. It is flexible, based on a very good knowledge of the main directions in which sociological research was reformed, including the Romanian one, suggesting the multiplicity of perspectives in which the subject may be addressed. The work is mainly based on constructivist theories of reality, the symbolic interactionism, the ethnomethodological, grounded theory, invoking a qualitative research, an oral history method, and methods presented by analysis of the life story.

Divorţul în tradiţia evreiască/ Divorce in the Jewish Tradition (Romanian Version) Author: Iulia Andreea MOLDOVAN Lumen Publishing House www.edituralumen.ro www.librariavirtuala.com Iaşi, Romania 2008 No. pg. 120, format

The theme: divorce in Jewish tradition did not attract so far particular attention of researchers. Therefore we do not have a variety of sources to deal with ending a marriage in Hebrew and almost everything written so far is signed by authors of Jewish origin. If you are planning to research on this topic in Romania you will have an unpleasant surprise to find not too much information, especially not finding Romanian author writing on the subject. Dissolution of marriage is a matter of tradition, culture and reflects the Jewish people’s mentality which has evolved and undergone several transformations in the context of interaction with other civilizations and which has influenced people who came in contact with.

Infanticide is the crime that contradicts the sacred duty and maternal instinct of breeding, as long as, eros as a form of self-preservation instinct, is the most natural and accessible way to get out of the instability and temporality of death and aspire to the transcendency, with fear, hunger and defense, forms of the same instinct of preservation (Noica). At the same time, infanticide is also the most monstrous crime because is aimed at a fragile being - fruit of eroticism - and on a defenseless person. In antiquity, infanticide was punished as severely as any murder.

Temporary migration abroad is one of the innovative strategies adopted by individuals living in post-communist period (Sandu, 2000) to resist structural changes that took place rapidly in the early 90s. Currently, however, after diffusion and the social contagion effect, it has become a dominant strategy within certain rural communities. Starting from the interest for the effects of the phenomenon in these communities, I stopped on a topic not approached in specialized practice in Romania so far : how young people from such a community perceive migration and are influenced by it in the choices they do.

In modern society conditions, adolescents create more problems than in the past. Urban agglomeration, the continuous growth of the temptations, the penetration of modern technology in all spheres of life, longer school period, the confusion of the terms "democracy" with "freedom" are some factors which justify increasing research interest in the phenomenon of "esacping from home". The hypothesis of the work aimes at evaluation of adults and adolescents attitudes, to what extent this differs from male subjects versus female subjects and to what extent is different depending on the contact with the type of deliquency.

It is known that the Arab approache of Aristotle's philosophy comments (Averroes, in particular) kept its authentic spirit, without "refine" it in the Augustinian sense, etc.. Averroism appeared in Spain but could not penetrate the Byzantine space, so it is unclear whether the term Arab Dikhr (Allah) which was mentioned during the conscious control of breathing exercises, would be synonymous with the name of Jesus. In this case, the spatial scope of practice of that prayer would be larger.

“We know that no road is pointless, if it does not go to church, and therefore we believe that no law is pointless unless it defends indigenous people and its faith”. This rejection of unfair, unjust laws is synthesized in 3 points: 1. The law does not protect freedom of conscience, but, lacking citizens defending their freedom of conscience, especially for the Orthodox. 2. The law denies the traditional role, identity, culture and faith of the Orthodox Church 3. The law requires state interference in the life of the Orthodox Church, and prohibits the Church the application of a series of church canons.

The Three Divine Persons are a unique Godhead (Holy Trinity) in eternal reciprocity of Love for God in man and man in God. That is way, the bodily resurrection is only once, and the fearful Judgement Day is once, for eternity of life of Jesus, for the continuity of human. In such a faith it is hard to get, very hard, but increases the power of the beauty of life, death and weakens the vision of mysterious joy.

Knowledge is one of the necessary size of a human being, so we are both: subject and object of knowledge. God, however, can never be an object of knowledge fundamental error committed by representatives of discursive thought, which reduced the logical meaning: idea, monad, prime still engine, a principle, a vital force, etc.. Such philosophical thinking, tend to catch everything in concept and argument, losing sight of what is deeply characteristic of Christianity: "What is and remains always the same-The Living God".

Giordano Bruno's work history interpretations

reflect the succession of revolutionary periods or search the identity of epoch. Diachronic patterns over trends or models of interpretation of the work and biography of Bruno highlight almost radically different ways of seeing a decisive contribution to the shape of Modernity. Thus, Bruno has been interpreted both materialistic and spiritualistic, was claimed by both atheists and magical thinking and was invoked as historical evidence by both the revolutionary and the conservatives.

Mic tratat de gnoseologie/ Treaty of Gnosiology (Romanian Version) Author: Tomiţă CIULEI Lumen Publishing House www.edituralumen.ro www.librariavirtuala.com Iaşi, Romania 2009 No. pg. 446, format

Philosophy, in essence, comprises two major problems: the problem of existence that is the subject of metaphysics and gnosiology or the theory of knowledge. By gnosiology, the philosophical approach tends to clear up the nature and extension of knowledge, its presuppositions and foundations. Today it is used, in particular, the term "epistemology." Epistemology, however, is understood as the philosophical theory of scientific knowledge, while gnosiology covers all forms and methods of human knowledge.

Invidual Versus Society in The Dystopian Fiction of The First Half of The XX-Th Century Author: Gabriel ROMAN-BĂRBUŢI Lumen Publishing House www.edituralumen.ro www.librariavirtuala.com Iaşi, Romania 2008 No. pg. 101, format

The present paper has as its main theme the

complex relationship between the individual and society in the anti-utopian literature of the first half of the XX-th century. As we know, this period has been an extremely prodigious one for the utopian literature, marking a decisive shift of perspective of the utopian imaginary.

The reasons for this will be analyzed in the following pages, both from a synchronic and from a diachronic perspective. We will analyze the literary evolution of the utopian genre and the reasons that lead to its mutations, and also we will try to configure the paradigmatic changes in the collective imaginary that lead to the flourishing of anti-utopianism. We will thus try to understand the causes that lead to the emergence of the dystopian subgenre and to categorize them adequately. Author

Om, creaţie, libertate. Cultura ca orizont ontologic uman în concepţia filozofului Lucian Blaga/ Human, Creation, Liberty. Culture as a Human, Ontological Horizon According to Lucian Blaga Philosopher Author: Ioana Camelia ŞANDOR Lumen Publishing House

www.edituralumen.ro www.librariavirtuala.com Iaşi, Romania 2008 No. pg. 124, format This work was intended to be a transposing of the Blagian philosophical system in policy terms so familiar to each of us: the beginning (human development), development (knowledge) and finally the meaning (culture and God). Then doubts have arisen, the meanings that initially were ignored, now returned in the form of imperatives. You can not ignore in the body of a work the ultimate meaning, you need to grind it, let it go back and forth to betray the whole rationale. Author

Studii în filosofia Orientului/ Studies in the Eastern Philosophy (Romanian Version) Author: Antonio SANDU Lumen Publishing House www.edituralumen.ro www.librariavirtuala.com Iaşi, Romania 2008 No. pg. 164, format

The intention of this volume is not to achieve a comprehensive overview of Eastern philosophy, but to present those particular systems and schools of philosophical doctrine whose reinterpretation contribute to building holistic paradigm. We will focus on the metaphysical ideas and concepts with some current construction holistic vision, aiming to point semantic transfers that this idea has suffered going through a process of integrating to become the origins of transmoderne paradigm.

Sartre - un filosof al libertăţii umane/ Sartre – a Human Liberty Philosopher Author: Ramona BUJOR Lumen Publishing House www.edituralumen.ro www.librariavirtuala.com Iaşi, Romania 2008 No. pg. 392, format

In a time of critical trial decline, Ramona Elena Bujor has proposed an analysis of the work of Jean-Paul Sartre, following the concepts of freedom and creativity, in all sections of its philosophy: phenomenology, ontology-existential, anthropology and moral. Paper succeeds to disclose: explanatory structures, operational concepts (categories), tools of a hermeneutical work -philosophical and literary works - which has built theoretical and practical values around an historical, social and individual ideal: human freedom.

Direcţii în hermeneutica actuală/ Directions in present Hermeneutics (Romanian Version) Author: Oleg BERNAZ Lumen Publishing House www.edituralumen.ro www.librariavirtuala.com Iaşi, Romania 2008 No. pg. 92, format

The attempt of this work has as a reference point the foucald archeology approach. If we are to give a first definition of archeology, then we can say that it is emerging as a philosophy of the event. The concept of "event" is central to the foucald thinking, because from here, Foucault will build a critic of all tests that would be subordinated to a general meaning (all culture) or originate (the subject of transcendental or historical consciousness).

Despre Zombie şi alţi demoni/ About Zombi and Other Demons (Romanian Version) Author: VARGA Alexandra Lumen Publishing House www.edituralumen.ro www.librariavirtuala.com Iaşi, Romania 2007 No. pg. 85, format

Starting from the differences between what is meant by zombi, I will try to argue that in the experiment proposed by me, the inability to achieve a rational distinction makes me doubt of a dichotomous way to tell about consciousness. Thus, I will show the analogy between consciousness problem and the psychological paralogism problem, for example, in Kantian terms, ultimately trying to import the solution of Kant in philosophy of mind, for example, discussions about the nature of consciousness, of its specificity.

Platon- Teoria reamintirii/ Plato – Remembering Theory (Romanian Version) Author: Patricia VOINESCU Lumen Publishing House www.edituralumen.ro www.librariavirtuala.com Iaşi, Romania 2007 No. pg. 151, format

The theory of remembering means that the immortal human soul, has gone through many lives and many existence periods outside the body. Thus, "there is nothing that the soul may not have learned, for it is immortal and many times born and received what is in the world here, and in Hades, and everywhere" (Plato, Complete Works II , Menon 81 c), in addition, all nature is akin, so a soul that was made to remember only one thing can start from there to rediscover other things, if willing to persevere.

No. pg. 117, format

In the first section of the paper there is argued that we cannot dispense ourselves with the argumentative value of the person and that the doubt is the one which gives us ego of "Cogito, ergo sum". In the second section I try to show that "there is a thought" to be fined up to " (single) consciousness of one or more thoughts" and that, according to Descartes, what I observe when I say "cogito" is a mentally act doubled by his consciousness.

Pluralism ontologic şi ideea simţului comun din perspectiva filosofiei analitice/ Ontological Pluralism and the Idea of Common Sense from the Perspective of Analytical Philosophy (Romanian Version) Author: Cătălina Daniela RĂDUCU

Lumen Publishing House www.edituralumen.ro www.librariavirtuala.com Iaşi, Romania 2007 No. pg. 247, format This work is not what the title suggests, from a very simple reason: we chose as the subject of our research, a single author, in which the two themes announced: ontological pluralism and the idea of common sense are intertwined in the most relevant way. The author chosen was Bertrand Russell, making our research both easy and difficult. Are we dealing with a paradox here? It would not be surprising if we think of the author’s passion in researching all the implications it could have a philosophical idea, find and solve paradoxes, where they appear.

Surtitrage du dialogue dramatique dans la pratique théâtrale contemporaine Author: DRAGNEA Ana Maria Lumen Publishing House www.edituralumen.ro www.librariavirtuala.com Iaşi, Romania 2010

Sous le rapport des incessants changements que subit le monde contemporain, la traduction devient un concept de plus en plus difficile à contenir dans les limites d’une simple définition. A la fois processus, technique, résultat et domaine d’activité, la traduction élargit son aire en s’appuyant sur de nombreux nouveaux concepts, nouvelles visions et thèses, nouveaux instruments de travail. Son sens n’étant donc pas univoque, sa vocation ne l’est non plus. Elle est devenue une partie intégrante non seulement de la vie personnelle, mais, elle est importante dans nombre de secteurs d’activité humaine, tels la diplomatie, la politique, les affaires, le tourisme, l’économie, l’éducation, et caetera. Elle justifie donc, par cela, l’importance qu’on lui accorde.

The theme that this paper proposes refers to the steps taken by the poetry of Nichita Stănescu in the crystallization of an authentic vision of the poet's world and especially the word.

Over time, the symbol has raised lasting interest to the theoretical consciousness, with different approaches. A tradition of interpretation of the symbol that goes up to Plato gradually incorporated hermeneutics of sacred texts, art history, philosophy of culture, anthropology, semiotics, phenomenology of religion, psychoanalysis. Furthermore, common consciousness has formed an unequivocal representation about the symbol and invokes symbols in its usual activities.

Pour une etude qui se propose d'analyser la specificite de la conscience chretienne dans les oeuvres de jeunesse de Chateaubriand, il nous semble necessaire de commencer notre argumentation par quelques precisions preliminaires â l'egard de la notion de « visage de la Providence ». Dans l'espace culturel judeo-chretien, le theme de la recherche de la face de Dieu n'est pas un sujet marginal; la recension des occurrences du mot pănîm <hb. face dans l'Ancien Testament montre que sur un total de quatre cents references, dont la plupart se referent â des etres humains ou â d'autres intermediaires, une centaine d'entre elles se rapportent â Dieu lui-meme. Comment pourrait-on expliquer ce desir de voir Dieu dans un culte foncierement iconoclaste qui semble rejeter toute forme de visualisation ? Pourquoi serait-on toujours â la recherche du visage divin en sachant que toute image en est d'emblee marque de faussete ?

Prose in the interwar period has an important feature: orientation towards novel. Before World War I, the Romanian prose writers were storytellers or story writers, being attracted by short genres. Although the Romanian novel appears in the middle of the nineteenth century and knows some success before 1900, the first modern novels are considered particularly in the post-1920. The greatest prose writers are known as novelists, although some of them write also stories or short stories.

Paris 1431-Au carrefour de la Renaissance et du

Moyen Âge, à la fin de la Guerre de Cent ans entre la France et l’Angleterre, quand Jeanne d’Arc, la vierge d’Orléans, était brûlée vive sur la Grande Place de Rouen, voyait le jour François de Montcorbier ou plus tard Maître des Loges, nommé aussi François Villon.

Fils d’une famille pauvre de la région de Montcorbier, d’où probablement vient aussi son nom, il est élevé par son oncle, Guillaume de Villon, Maître ès Arts, dans une maison assez modeste à Paris. C’est ce nom avec lequel François entrera dans la postérité. Il est le premier à changer la poésie française du Moyen Âge, celui qui va mettre son empreinte dans l’éternité avec ses poèmes.

François Villon reste dans la légende: le poète et le cambrioleur. Sa vie et sa poésie sont si apparentées. Lais, Ballades trouvent toutes leurs forces créatrices dans la vie quotidienne de François.

The origins of pragmatics is undoubtedly in Greek philosophy and this is not by chance, if we consider that there is no "opposition to the writing itself, but an annex to the writing, a drive to the vehicle of vocality" the spoken word becoming the supreme model. This is what Eugeniu Coşeriu highlights, considering that "the fundamental question of philosophy of language is to answer the question 'What is language?"

We can say that the methods of highlighting the tragic, as existence, as role, as purpose, are beyond what some philosophers mention, maintaining themselves in an area of possible of their philosophy, in other words, they are carrying a further thinking, a derivation of existent conclusions, but whose premises can be identified in their philosophy.

Cet ouvrage constitue la version à peine modifiée du mémoire de Master que j’ai soutenu en septembre 2006 à l’Université de Reims Champagne-Ardenne en France. C’est un travail réalisé sous la direction de Monsieur Vincent Jouve à qui je souhaite apporter ici mes vifs remerciements. Ses conseils m’ont toujours été d’un aide précieux dans mes recherches et ses suggestions m’ont souvent stimulée à sortir des impasses auxquels ce type de démarche est parfois confronté. Comme il s’agit d’un mémoire de Master, les dimensions du texte sont assez réduites. La structure du plan n’est pas toujours très élaborée (surtout le plan « à tiroirs » dans la troisième partie de l’ouvrage) et l’analyse, loin d’être exhaustive, pourrait être facilement développée dans un commentaire plus étendu. Néanmoins, je considère que ce texte a le mérite d’avoir bien mis en évidence les similitudes thématiques et structurelles entre les deux modèles annoncés dans le titre: le mythe œdipien et le roman policier.

While for V.S. Naipaul home is ultimately nowhere, for Salman Rushdie home is potentially everywhere. While Naipaul sees cultural collisions and collusions as irredeemably tainting and corrupting, Rushdie casts a more lenient eye on the beneficent possibilities and opening vistas of cultural encounter. Although their characters are equally displaced and rendered homeless by the sinuous historicity of their sense of identity and belongingness, their quests for the core of the postcolonial condition follow somewhat different routes and itineraries, inscribed on different historical and cultural maps.

Florentina Cioloca is a qualified translator, interpreter and teacher of English, with a keen interest in the works of Virginia Wolf. She has a B.A. (Hons) degree in English-Romanian from Transilvania University Braşov and is currently studying at the University of Exeter UK, where she has been offered a special scholarship for the MED-TESOL programme. The turn of the last century was marked by an acute identity crisis resulting from decisive economical and socio-political changes. Consequently, the concept of self started to be represented in literature as fluctuating and fragile, from a subjective and limited narrative perspective. Crystallingin her novels the image of the frustrated individual who is never pleased with his/ her life, Virginia Wolf hailed the modern ascendancy of illusion overreality. Author

Cultural Glimpses of the English-Speaking World (English Version) Author: Augustina BUT Lumen Publishing House www.edituralumen.ro www.librariavirtuala.com Iaşi, Romania 2007 No. pg. 344, format

‘We used to invent words and then yield to their power. No knowledge would be possible without words though, in the process, words would often grow into self-mastered entities, into obstacles that interpose between us and the ‘real world’. They would bestow on us both proximity to, and enstrangement from, the essence of things, whereas spiritual independence presupposes a state of semantic vigilence, a rejection of the tyranny wrought by these unavoidable lexical intermediaries. ‘History’ is such a misleading word ... Bringing history closer to us, therefore, implies a process of selection in the first place — an extremely drastic selection after which the remaining part is, quantitatively speaking, infinitesimal as compared to the real ‘charge’ of the past.

Faced with a world where it is impossible to resist, let alone oppose diversity and diference, where notions such as tolerance, multiculturalism, interdisciplinarity have becomekey concepts, we are actually in the position to reconsider and redefine our own experience of the world and in the world and to question centuries of philosophical and scientific certainties; we are in the postmodern condition. On close analysis, all definitions of postmodernism, as different and numerous as they are, do actually revolve around two basic perspectives on the present-day state of affairs or what we have grown accustomed to call postmodernism. One, that I would call oversimplifying polarizes the negativistic features of the phenomenon, focusing exclusively on its potential of completely rejecting the previous systems, values, norms and concepts. The other goes further and exposes postmodernism s ability to understand differences. Author

Otherness and the Quest For Identity: An Epitome of George Eliot s Novels (English Version) Author: Ioana IACOB Lumen Publishing House www.edituralumen.ro www.librariavirtuala.com Iaşi, Romania 2007 No. pg. 96, format

In the paradigm of the Victorian canon, George Eliot s corpus presents itself as the „voice of a century” that draws the contours of protrusive individuals marked by the difference of otherness. Being both an epitome of the Victorian literature and a refined prolepsis of the psychoanalytical debate over the individual s self, Eliot s novels remain pillars of the cultural and epistemological society, in which identity involuntarily appears as a biased construct. Thus, a prolegomena of psychological and psychoanalytical framework of the conceptualization of „otherness” and „identity” is firstly performed, in order to set a theoretical starting ground for the further analysis. After such a presentation, the portraits of the distinct typologies of identity are drawn from George Eliot s novels, with a focus on the feminist other, racial different and the socio- political alien of the Victorian society.

Then, the patrimonial relations between spouses are in a close relationship with the relationship on the personal rights of spouses, with those concerning the goods and those relating to legal documents (all of which are governed, often by different laws).

aujourd’hui massivement pénétré d’un besoin de réflexion critique loin des seules discussions techniques concernant la construction européenne.

D’autre côté, Raph Dahrendorf exprime son opinion concernant l’idée de l’Europe, en soutenant que « l’Europe peut être une illusion optique », et que « nous avons besoin d’une Europe ayant des institutions souples, pas d’un super-Etat européen ».

Each of us is unique but not all of us have the same capacity to accept this diversity, we are not equally tolerant on those who “are not like us ".

Uniunea Europeană, Imperiile Antice şi Imperiile Medievale/ European Union, Ancient and Medieval Empires (Romanian Version) Author: Mădălina Virginia ANTONESCU Lumen Publishing House www.edituralumen.ro www.librariavirtuala.com Iaşi, Romania 2008 No. pg. 567, format

The purpose of this paper (which can be classified under a political essay, but just as well can be considered a trans-historical study) is the comparison between the EU, as a type of post-modern empire, original, new, modern and the classical type empires (in which we included the empires of the ancient period and the medieval period). Of course, this is not a comparison between the EU and all ancient and medieval empires, considering the space but also because these empires follow in general, a certain pattern (in terms of the formation, founding principle, the organization of powers how to extend, the causes of decay) specific to martial empires (based, extended and fallen through the use of military methods).

Muslims in Europe. The European Union Solving Social Conflicts (English Version) Author: Alexandru BALAŞ Lumen Publishing House www.edituralumen.ro www.librariavirtuala.com Iaşi, Romania 2008 No. pg. 187, format

European Union’s conflict transformation

approaches are best known in the framework of the Europeanization process of Central and Eastern Europe. Little is known about the European Union’s 3rd party structural transformation intervention into the social conflicts taking place inside the European Union. Many Member-States of the European Union experienced over the last decade an increase in the social conflict involving Muslim communities. The E.U.’s bodies and institutions are the most suited to address such an European-wide conflict.

Teoria complexului regional de securitate: complexul de securitate european/ Regional Security Complex Theory: The European Security Complex (Romanian Version) Author: Dumitru- Cătălin ROGOJANU Lumen Publishing House www.edituralumen.ro www.librariavirtuala.com


Traditional approaches about security have had (and in the minds of many still have) a narrow foundation. This hypothesis does not mean that there is a consensus on how they should look like a design with a wider base. However, highlighting the filed where any view is a useful and exciting exercise, is what we tried to achieve during this scientific approach.

Far from being a finished concept or even a relatively exhaustible through a systematic description, European identity is a concept in the process of construction, a process that is active both on top-down dimension and on the bottom up dimension. Very broad objectives of the EU and the complexity of the legislative and institutional machinery which is to achieve their aims can not rely only on a series of formal mechanisms, however effective they would be.

Perspectives on the challenges and opportunities of the future EU enlargement towards CEEC (English Version) Author: Salomeea ROMANESCU Lumen Publishing House www.edituralumen.ro www.librariavirtuala.com Iaşi, Romania 2006 No. pg. 128, format

The hypothesis: for all the progress in the construction of the new identity of European Union, the European Civil Society (resistance against the coercive European Political Society) cannot accept “the embedded neo- liberalism” (the EU s actual hegemonic Project) without finding real solutions for so- called “social fracture” of globalization and this represents a big threat to the soft security model of Europe. This research is based on the neo- Gramscian integrative theoretical perspective. The question is : could Civil Society from CEEC, as social power participate in the potential anti- hegemonic Project of European Civil Society (in neo-Gramscian terms), able to face the hegemonic project of European Political Society, “embedded neo- liberalism”?” Author

Marketing cinematografic/ Film Marketing (Romanian Version) Author: Mihaela DRON Lumen Publishing House www.edituralumen.ro www.librariavirtuala.com Iaşi, Romania 2006

The film is not only a cultural product or industry, but a mixture of these two concepts, is a "sui generis" product, the outcome of creation and artistic-industrial construction. In the film industry, what usually sells is an idea, a concept. Each film is a unique creation, containing a mix of elements, combined in some way. It can therefore be considered as a prototype. When people buy a product that is new they first try, which is not just like in this industry, the film can be defined as a product that is sold only once. Author

Iaşi, Romania vol. 5 / 2010 No. pg. 44, B5 JIS format The present article proposes a model of how to develop a plan for evaluate professional skills of the employees. Also, this process can be applicable to people that want to certify their skills acquired in non-formal ways, and also in human resource departments, where the managers want to evaluate professional skills of their members. Evaluation of professional competencies can be a useful instrument in the human resources departments especially when the main purpose is that of achieving a more efficient use of human resources. We consider this model can be used during internal trainings, in during the annually staff evaluations, or when the manager considers is necessary.

The idea of making this guide originated as a result of personal institutional experiences during 2004 - 2008 which showed me that, although in the private sector and, increasingly frequently - though not always consistently and professionally - in the political, the way people communicate is very close to Western standards. And, if we only think that these public institutions are financed from the budget, so from the contribution of everyone, we realize how important it is to inform taxpayers consistently and professional about activities, goals and programs of the institution.

Between a business meeting and a personal one, people are "colliding" with eachother, and relations between them are strengthened or dissolve. There are so many factors that influence relationships between people and so few relationships that actually survive time and lack of time, that the emotional capital of each one suffers. This is why we have this strange feeling that we have no time ... to have time to be with us and with others, to remain over time and across time. Pieces of life, in which you get to ask yourself what really matters and essentially who you are. Author

Learning is effective when knowledge and skills acquired by students are systematically used in social situations different from those they were taught. Student's mind should not be treated like a data bank that stores information read or displayed in a course. Educational partnership between the educator and the educated resettles the social construct called learning, as a self-discovery dimension, which catalyzes the motivational and cognitive abilities of the student to maximum self-update of their potential, both for the educated and trainer.

Research in Political Sciences and Administration (English Version) Author: Cristina Elena RĂDULEA Lumen Publishing House www.edituralumen.ro www.librariavirtuala.com Iaşi, Romania 2007 No. pg. 106, format Both researchers and politicians are more and more discussing the desirable institutional shape of the Union in terms of parliamentarism and presidentialism. That is, should the EU be a parliamentary or a presidential political system? However, little research has clearly established what kind of political system the EU is, and specific criteria for assessing the European polity in terms of parliamentarism – presidentialism have never been applied. This research paper seeks to find what kind of political system the EU is, by applying Arend Lijphart’s (2000) six criteria for distinguishing between parliamentary and presidential systems. The reason for doing so is that Lijphart’s theoretical framework provides appropriate instruments for assessing the relationship between the executive and legislative branches of a polity, as well as for determining their weight within the system.

The present paper has as its main theme the

attempt of trying to define the concept of Britishness, both from its national and imperial perspective, and to analyze its complex relationship to such issues as ethnicity and culture, especially in the post-war period, when Great Britain is faced both with the collapse of its empire and with massive immigration from its former colonies and dominions.

The analysis will be both a synchronic and a diachronic one, with an important focus being placed on the shift of national consciousness from one epoch to the other, always trying to offer the historical backdrop for these evolutions as well.

How Free is the Freedom of Movement? Transitional Arrangements and Beyond (English Version) Author: Mădălina COŢIU Lumen Publishing House www.edituralumen.ro www.librariavirtuala.com Iaşi, Romania 2010

The founding fathers created the European Union as a space of freedom and justice, which by bringing peace and economic prosperity was meant to prevent Europe from ever facing the destruction caused by the two World Wars. At first the emphasis was placed on the economic integration and one of its key elements was represented by the freedom of movement. The free movement of goods, capital, services and people was first mentioned in the Treaty of Rome and is also the guiding principle of the Single European Market. The free movement of persons is the first of the four rights defining the European Citizenship and therefore also an element of the political union. Despite being perceived as the first and foremost asset of the European Union by half of its citizens, the ‘freedom to travel, study and work anywhere in the EU’ has nonetheless generated many debates among the Member States.

The riot, a necessary condition of any revolution, is a challenge to the individuality, because to die for what you realize means "an idea put above the expense of their own lives”. Camus argues that "riots provide values”, so we could envisage the existence of non-values. What would unite individuals would be the unfair states which they are facing, poverty, and violence on them and these evidence are witnessing throughout the whole society, especially the aesthetic level.

In nowadays society, politics represent a matter of great concern for people all over the world. There is a tremendous variety of attitudes, options, opinions and beliefs with regard to politics, across different cultures, which shape the similarities and differences among individuals, and implicitly the society in which they live. Furthermore, researchers have been long concerned with the central questions of democratic political behaviour: What are the prevailing patterns of citizen political opinion and behaviour? How do these patterns change over time, across generations? Which are the sources of these opinions and behaviour, and what changes them? How and how much do citizens influence their leaders and their government? Which are the factors that contribute to the political values development?

Machiavelli and the Legitimization of the Realism in International Relations (English Version) Author: Ioana PETRE Lumen Publishing House www.edituralumen.ro www.librariavirtuala.com Iasi, Romania 2009 No. pg. 99, format

The conceptual delineation between the sphere of political ideas and political activity has never represented a strong borderline for the continuous processes and influences that were exerted from one part to the other. In numerous occasions, political ideas were practically transformed into genuine guidelines that were intended to facilitate the art of statecraft for those that were in the ruling position. However, there are also famous cases in which ideas lack the potential to materialize and, thus, stagnate from this point of view, transforming themselves into sheer utopias aimed at raising public or simply elite awareness on certain issues. Considered by many the founding father of the discipline of political science, a proponent of civic humanism or simply blamed as an extremely wicked, immoral and irreligious intellectual, Niccolo Machiavelli has been the target of overwhelmingly long scholar debates that did not manage to integrate him into strict categories.

First, it will try to analyze whether the post- communist transitions were very different from other transitions from autocratic rule (see Schneider and Schmitter 2003 for a debate on the subject) by attempting to adjust a theoretical apparatus developed for other uses and to apply it irrespective of the degree of democratization. Second, as the vision on what decentralization means and how it works influences how important funds are distributed and how many programs of the international institutions are implemented, the findings may have an immense public policy stake.

The image of New York as quintessence and unique reflection of urban America -An analysis of the city’s emergence in the post World War II period (English Version) Author: Ioana IACOB Lumen Publishing House www.edituralumen.ro www.librariavirtuala.com

Iaşi, Romania 2008 No. pg. 153, format In its unremitting quest for the elusive destination of an ‘all-encompassing’ locus, the American city forges a panoramic view dominated by a history of diversity and cosmopolitan specificity. The breath-taking odyssey that carried the urban space from a gregarious pragmatic community, to a cultural promoter of the nation’s artistic mission and eventually, to an economic leader of the global democracy, reads as a vortex in which identities, architectural revolutions and ideological mobs joint inside the pot of America. Its ramifying story of acceptance, assimilation, rejection and stereotypy brought the city at a stage where one can only hint at the complexity that governs the metropolis’s structure in terms of democratic narrative.

Deliberative Democracy in a Diverse Europe - From Theory to Practice Author: Carmen Gabriela GREAB Lumen Publishing House www.edituralumen.ro www.librariavirtuala.com Iaşi, Romania 2008 No. pg. 106, format

The nature of democracy has been debated for

several millennia as philosophers and other thinkers have speculated about what it is, what might become, and what is supposed to be. Compared to competing forms of government and methods of organizing society, democracy worked rather well by the values most theorists and idealists have held to be important. Consequently, democracy produced societies that have been humane, flexible, productive, and vigorous. Still, democracy did not come out looking the way many theorists and idealists imagined it should and it could. (Mueller, 1999) Author

They tend to make a transfer from one category to another, varying, most often between multilateralism very in vogue today among young actors of the international system and unilateralism very contained, officially, but which is the main action instrument for achieving foreign policy goals of large players in particular.
