Summary:
The most significant phenomenon occurring around us today is the European crisis. As well as being a "total social phenomenon" as classical French sociologist<U+fffd> Emile Durkheim would have said, it also affects all the levels of our lives-be they political, economic, cultural or social. Nothing remains untouched. In other words, it represents a "perfect storm".This volume brings together the contributions of twenty authors, scientists from the "Ion I.C. Br<U+fffd>atianu" Institute of Political Sciences and International Relations of the Romanian Academy, in response to this challenge. Using an expression.
