Summary/Abstract: The present Romanian political system has resulted from a quest for the model on which Romania’s social and political modernization had to be engineered. Such modernization was to be forged in relation to a Western democratic model, but had to be implemented in a state with a strong Oriental and pre-modern legacy. This is the context where we endeavour to analyse the undelying philosophy of the Romanian government model, which vacillated between monarchy as a successful model in Europe and republican influences.
