Summary/Abstract: The interwar period was an active period, in which the fundamental institutions the Church, the School and the Family sought to follow the path of spiritual, cultural and social perfection. They wanted to transform the Romanian village and align it with modern society, which was emerging in Europe at the beginning of the twentieth century. Sociological research in the interwar period was intended to be a way for the country to be better known, in other words, to be better known Romanian realities, especially through monographic research initiated by sociologist D. Gusti, these being considered the birth certificate of the Romanian Sociological School. The study presents some aspects related to the activity of the Church and Cultural Homes in rural areas, along with the presence of Royal Student Teams and the obligation of Social Service in villages.
