Aspects of the Administrative-Territorial Organization of Romania in the 1923 Constitution and Its Related Legislation

Summary/Abstract: This paper explores the administrative-territorial organization of Romania as established by the 1923 Constitution and the subsequent 1925 Law on Administrative Unification. Focusing particularly on rural communes and counties, the study highlights the demographic composition, economic disparities, legislative principles, and administrative structures within Romania during the interwar period. The analysis addresses the tensions between centralization and decentralization, the incorporation of different regional administrative traditions, and the socio political implications of local governance reforms. The historical assessment underlines how administrative reforms aimed at unification were influenced by practical, ideological, and economic considerations, impacting both local autonomy and central governance.
