Abstract

At the present, the Romanian rural world is facing a profound process of change. The functions of the rural space are diversifying and the rural structures are gaining in complexity. Despite the general tendencies, the Romanian village is still characterized by its ancestral activity: the agriculture, its main traits being: non performance, inefficiency and poverty. The aim of the paper is highlighting the main vulnerabilities of the Romanian village, our goal being to generate a reflection upon the possible ways of remedying those malfunctions and discovering new opportunities for development. Nevertheless, our purpose is to sound the alarm about the risks of maintaining the present situation, the lack of a strategy and of concrete measures causing the deepening of the discrepancy and of the disparities between the urban and rural Romania.
