Summary/Abstract: Romania’s accession to the European Union was long prepared and awaited by the country’s population, political class and governors. Five years after the accession, a brief summing-up of the expectances’ fulfilment can emphasize the reality of its benefits for all Romanian citizens. The reality of Romania’s integration is essen¬tially different from the population, political class and governors’ expectances over the benefits of the EU Member State quality. There is a significant deviation between the expectations and the real¬ity of social, economic, political, demographic and environmental results of the Romania’s integration in the European Union.
