NEWSLETTER G COOPERATIVE (17TH OF JUNE 2013) * 1. STUDIES Zoltán Rostás: A Sociological School from aCommunicational Perspective. The Case of Dimitrie Gusti’s Monographic School In the following work we shall look at the communication strategies perfected by Romanian Professor Dimitrie Gusti (1880-1955), the founder of the Bucharest Sociological School, in order to popularize his innovations in the area of university organization and new methods of fieldwork. Likewise, we shall examine the activity of the Prince Carol Royal Cultural Foundation and the method of promoting a new system of social intervention in the Romanian villages. At the same time, we shall analyze the process of promoting Romanian sociology abroad and of organizing an international conference of experts in the field. Finally, we shall not pass over the fact that it was Professor Dimitrie Gusti, in his capacity as commissar general, who conceived and executed the Romanian pavilions for the world exhibitions in Paris (1937) and New York (1939), which enjoyed great success.

The main questions that have guided my inquiry are: What are the general social contexts and the contexts specific to social intervention and to organizational endeavors that contributed to the participation of a significant number of women in sociological research, voluntary royal student teams that performed “cultural action”, and in the preparation for the implementation of the Social Service Law? What are the organizational and social interventionist antecedents that would better explain the inclusion of some research interests predominantly associated with women’s lives and work – hitherto situated outside “legitimate” scholarly consideration – in the sociological examination and social intervention undertaken by the Bucharest Sociological School?[...] cooperativag.ro/theodora-vacarescu-asociatii-feministe-precursoare-interventie-sociala-gustiana/ 2. INTERVIEWS WITHIN THE GUSTI SCHOOL Roman Cresin, statisticianul Scolii Gustiene: cel mai placut concediu… [Roman Cresin, the Gusti’s School statistician: the most enjoyable holiday][RO] The most appreciated statistician of the School, Roman Cresin* didn’t want me to turn on the recording machine. He didn’t refuse the interview, and agreed to answer my questions, but without recording. At one point, he admitted there are interesting things from the past which did not have, still, dangerous meanings, but he put me promise I would turn off the recording at any sign. The somehow unenthusiastic conversation became more lively afterwards, but there had been many and long interruptions. Thus, from the whole interview few pages were left, even if I didn’t manage to understand the reason for most of the “censored” parts. [...] cooperativag.ro/roman-cresin-sala-luminoasa/
