Romania’s Constitutions and their Dependence on Political Factors

In this study the author makes a short presentation and analysis of the relationship between political factors and Romania’s various constitutions. Starting from the historical reality according to which the Romanian state is a creation of recent history, the author has presented the succession of constitutional changes. The author’s working hypothesis is that along a century and a half of state history, the influence of politics was directly reflected in constitutional provisions. These frequent changes or adjustments of different articles from the constitutional text were caused by the fact that the political elites of the Romanian state did not succeed in shaping a common vision of the Romanian state.
