Summary/Abstract: This paper proposes to offer a statistical presentation of the ethnic and denominational distribution of the population of Transylvania, the social framework and the professional elites and of the culture-generating institutions between 1918 and 1948 (museums, adult education, film making, press and radio, the churches). The study relies primarily on the hitherto published statistical summaries, censuses, annals, and studies, without carrying out any fundamental research or analysis. This is a first step to a larger analysis concerning the modernization indexes and the modernization processes in the inter-war Transylvania.
