This article aims to follow up the institutionalization process of the primary education in the rural areas of Bessarabia (today Republic of Moldova), during the inter-war period (1918-1940), from the perspective of the application of the corporal punishment in the public schools. The application of the corporal punishment also interacted with certain matters related to the everyday process of the primary education in the villages, such as the teachers' relationships with the local community, the school attendance, or the internal group dynamics within the pedagogical collectives in the rural schools. The corporal punishment was codified and became increasingly scarce in the inter-war years, correspondingly with the change of the attitudes both of the teachers and the pupils' parents towards the primary school.

This article aims to present the situation of the foreign students in general – and of Romanian students in particular – studying at German institutions of higher education during the
Third Reich. Beyond its quantitative considerations, which prove how intense was the migration of Romanian students to Nazi Germany the article highlights the political role assigned to the Romanian students by the Nazi authorities, as well as the political and ideological impact that the study in the Nazi universities had on the Romanian youth.

It is certain that contemporary higher education institutions have entered the era of great transformation. The environment they operate in has changed fundamentally: professional knowledge and skills have become the main generator of economic development. At the same time, the university is no longer the only provider of high-quality knowledge. Competition on the market of knowledge and academic education services is getting tougher. The efforts made by national education in modernizing and reforming the national higher educational system, in the context of European rigors and exigencies, would not be that obvious if they were not supported by our international partners through various community programs. The successful promotion of reforms in the educational system becomes possible only in terms of identifying, taking over good European practices in the field and implementing/ institutionalizing beneficial and valuable elements for the national higher education system. Good enforcement of reforming provisions is not possible unless there is a cooperative framework between the three main actors. The government shall implement new modern policies in higher education system; the civil society, on its turn shall take the responsibility and availability to be engaged in the reforming processes, and the higher education institutions shall accept the new context and implement the reforms on the institutional level, cooperating in the same way with the other two actors, meanwhile paying attention to the labour market.

In Romania, anual, zeci de mii de tineri aleg sa isi continue studiile dupa incheierea ciclului liceal aplicand la facultate. Potrivit INS, în 2015, peste jumatate dintr-un numar de aproximativ 400 000 de studenti inscrisi la licenta, sunt concentrati in 4 orase: Bucuresti, Cluj, Iasi si Timisoara. Majoritatea studentilor venind din provincie, aplica pentru a obtine un loc la camin insa din pacate aceasta este o resursa insuficienta raportata la cererea in continua crestere. Astfel, in acest articol imi propun sa discut problematica distribuirii unei resurse limitate printr-o abordare de tip top down aplicand dreptatea ca echitate dezvoltata de John Rawls. Scopul este de a vedea in ce masura putem identifica criterii de departajare echitabile.

The present study investigates the major problems and challenges faced by the Romanian educational system during the last years of Nicolae Ceauşescu's regime. My main focus is on the so-called "polytechnic" education as a mean to reform and improve the system, and the debates it generated starting with the late 1970s. Consequently, the paper also examines the evolution of the debate and the top-down and bottom-up projects and initiatives to reform the educational system during the first decade following the collapse of the communist regime in Romania in December 1989. The aim is to present the clashing visions of different actors over the idea of reform and the urge to implement it, nonetheless to reveal the long term deadlock generated by this situation within the Romanian educational system.

The study presents the results of focus groups conducted in December 2019 with students, professors of the Technical University "Gheorghe Asachi" in Iasi, but also with entrepreneurs working with them. He measured the satisfactions and dissatisfactions of each group compared to the other two, the needs of professionalism, collaboration, skills and competencies had and requested, entrepreneurial education, future prospects.
