Interdisciplinaritate în cercetarea locuirii urbane în România anilor 1970
Interdisciplinarity in the Research of Urbana Dwelling in Romania in the 1970s

Summary/Abstract: This article highlights how interdisciplinary scientific cooperation was given political relevance in 1970 s Romania. It looks at a series of domestic legislative measures adopted by the communist leaders and considers ways to place them in conversation with international events. It outlines the steps taken by social scientists in response to the rulers' decisions, highlighting the circumstances that allowed them to strengthen their visibility in the decision-making process to the detriment of architects and urban planners. It concludes by presenting how architects and urban planners understood to reconsider their professional landmarks to respond to new realities. I argue that these professional developments primarily reflected the efficiency of knowledge production and transfer networks, the intellectual tradition of the international communities the Romanian experts were associated with, and the degree of visibility in the socialist state's decision-making process of different professional communities.
