ABSTRACT

In the first half of the 19th century, Romanian political thought was strongly influenced by the significant changes that took place in Europe and by the national movements that began to emerge. The period was marked by struggles for independence and modernisation, and Romania was still under Ottoman rule, despite sporadic attempts to gain autonomy. Overall, the first half of the 19th century was a period of significant change and the emergence of ideas and movements that laid the foundations of the modern Romanian nation. Political thought during that period was marked by the struggle for autonomy, independence and modernisation, under the influence of progressive ideas circulating in Western Europe.
