The Reform of the State in Romania

Abstract

The article focuses on the topic of the reform process in Romania from 2009 and until 2011 and highlights specific measures implemented in different areas such as public finances, education, and the legal system. The global economic crisis is seen as an opportunity, despite its negative economic and social consequences, because it has generated the profound reform of the Romanian state. Structural reforms have been initiated during these years which are believed to positively impact the development of the country in the following years or even decades.
