Abstract

In the modern era, human society has undergone major changes in political, social, cultural and economic terms. These transformations, which experienced an accelerated pace in the twentieth century and continue into the 21st century, have led human society for the better. The lives of communities and individuals have generally been improved. In many parts of the world, deep injustices and inequities have been eliminated, by securing fundamental rights and by quality leaps in life. At the same time, however, this context has brought with it the coagulation of currents that undermine fundamental values of human society. Aggressive secularism, radical tendencies to redefine the family, marginalization of Christian-moral values are a manifest reality. The Romanian society was not isolated from these developments. Coming out of a long totalitarian period, Romania and its inhabitants are still struggling to find themselves, to rediscover those common values, which are part of its intimate fabric, as in the case of our scientific research, the territorial administrative organization.
