No full textThe system of education during communism had many shortcomings: underfinancing, low performance, regret and even social discrimination (despite praise from official propaganda on „free education”). The post-communist education reform has been corrective and reactive, driven by global pressures and limited by budget constraints but not only. The comparison at the level of several post-communist countries highlighted their common orientation. Romania has similarly embraced the imitative modernization process in line with Western values, privatization (partial), liberalism, the adoption of the Bologna process in higher education. The results of youth opinion polls since 1996, conducted within the Center for Studies and Certification for Youth Problems, have allowed us to analyze how transition youth reacted to education reforms. Although the reforms responded to unsatisfied needs in the communist period, the result was not an increase in the interest and trust of young people in school. The rate of participation of young people in education, although significantly increased compared to the period of communism (especially in higher education), remains low in a comparative European context

Get PDFPractical Training – A Challenge for Higher Education. Analysis of Students’ Satisfaction with Traineeships
Get PDFStudents` practical training is the key element that facilitates the transition to active life. Throughout traineeships, students gain important knowledge, skills and experiences that prove to be extremely useful when entering the labor market. If the content of practical training complies with the occupational requirements, the methodology and strategy used for organizing and implementing the traineeships prove to be successful. The present study aims to investigate the way of organizing and implementing practical activities within three Romanian universities: University of Oradea, University of Bucharest and “Aurel Vlaicu” University of Arad. Data were collected within the project “Traineeship Program for Students: Child Protection from theory to practice” (mentioned in the paper as PractiPASS), and represent the results of monitoring and assessment activities. Students included in the PractiPASS project participated in three academic traineeships and the evaluation of their activities was carried out at the end of each stage. The research was conducted on three waves: the first wave included 498 subjects, the second one 437 subjects, and the last wave 496 subjects. The analysis focuses on investigating students` satisfaction with their practical training. The main results show that the students` satisfaction follows an ascending trend on all three waves, with a higher increase between the first and the second stage of traineeships. At the same time, the levels of satisfaction differ according to universities and educational cycle
Migrations dans un monde globalisé: Migrations in a Globalized World
No full textWhat perspectives open to the world of the 21st century? Tomorrow's Europe will need to have a structured system of action on free movement. The causes of migrant's decision to leave remain the same; they are specific to each area of departure, but migrants will be more and more numerous. Europe cannot receive more immigrants than the traditional immigration countries do, although the declining demographics and job vacancies can affect its future development; it will "communitarise" the management of external borders through the visa system and the filtering of asylum applications. The EU countries will have to support a common migration policy, but that does not mean that the borders will be closed to all migrants. Besides financial costs, border control also has political implications. A poorly-designed closure policy can influence public opinion to become a vehement opponent of migration and can generate perverse effects contrary to migratory flows and structural adjustments of Southern and Eastern countries; which through people mobility are trying to reduce economic, social and cultural disparities. The alternative to border closure found by migration analysts is to learn how to "live together" and to find real solutions that will enable people to choose between leaving and staying at home." Living together" pursues social cohesion and the integration of immigrant populations
Postcomunismul românesc. O posibilă tipologie: Romanian Postcommunism. A Possible Typology
No full textAfter three decades since the 1989 revolution, is postcommunism still a relevant concept for understanding Romania's profound transformations after the fall of Ceauşescu's national-communist regime? For a number of reasons detailed in the introductive section, I aim to offer a positive answer to this question: postcommunism is still a valid theoretical tool in apprehending this new stage of Romania's development, although its relevance is not so powerful as it was back in the 1990s. This study tries to differentiate several major directions of analysis regarding Romanian postcommunism. The typology it poposes is by far not a complete one, not even a very complex one; it just tries to identify, grosso modo, what I consider to be the main dimensions of this complex social phenomenon. Of course, the debate can go on, and it is highly recommendable to go on, both by expanding and/or contesting the present typology. After I analyze the ideological, political, economical, social and cultural components of Romanian postcommunism, the idea I try to bring forward is that of the irreducible particularity of this ideology, the more prolific as its discursive efforts to present itself as the 'end of history', common sense, reality or non-ideological universalism - were more intense
Tendințe social-economice globale cu impact asupra standardului de viață: Global Socio-economic Trends with Impact on Living Standard
No full textThe article aims to signal current developments of some controversial indicators on social and economic development at global, European and national level, that will decisively affect the living standard of the population in the immediate and long-term future. Some of those evolutions seem inevitable, so we have to prepare to meet them. Others can still be influenced by some economic and social policies. In this regard, we mention the demographic context, the migration phenomenon, the labor force, or some key indicators of economic development. The standard of living is revealed by analyzing the relationship between income levels and household expenditure, and by presenting recent realities on the phenomenon of poverty. Some forecasts are also specified for the next 2-3 decades. Data from Romanian socio-economic statistics, Eurostat data and data from global expertise such as the World Bank, the International Monetary Fund or the UN are used
