Corporate Citizenship und Transformation in Rumänien.

Starting from the concept of civil society the author analyzes the complex changes occurred in Romania following the events of 1989. Attention is paid to the difficult implementation of authentic democratization measures, at a time when many members of the old regime maintained leading positions in the state and when the society in general lacked a political culture of its own. The author also highlights the importance of establishing an authentic civil society, one that would keep under close scrutiny political authorities still unused to having a public debate on their initiatives. In this respect, the paper mentions the role played by the organizations of the civil society and by the mass media in the establishment of a democratic society. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
