The Alexandrion Foundation launches “The Sinaia Debates”<\/strong><\/p>\n

On 30 March <\/strong>the Alexandrion Foundation launches a cycle of debates under the generic title “The Sinaia Debates”<\/strong>. They are a series of dialogues on topics of public interest, with the participation of leading figures from Romania and other countries, who offer viable alternatives for resolving the topics discussed. <\/p>\n

“The Sinaia Debates”<\/strong> are organised in editions, two each year, in March and September. This year’s first edition will consist of a series of three rounds of presentations and discussions on the theme “The Rule of Law. Premises, Conditions, Functioning”<\/strong>, over two days, 30-31 March, at the New Montana Hotel (Sinaia).<\/p>\n

An important topic on the agendas of the national press and also a pressing problem for society, the definition of the rule of law will be debated by renowned professors of law, officials of the justice system, past and present, renowned professors of history, parliamentarians, economists, sociologists, philosophers, psychologists, and successful representatives of administration, industry, commerce, civil society, cultural life and the press.<\/p>\n

“The concept of the ‘Sinaia Debates’ was born from the need to debate some of the most important social and political topics in the Romanian public space, and also to offer concrete answers to key questions. Moreover, in the long term, the aim of the debates is to contribute to creating a platform for communication between professionals, decision-makers and the public, at both national and international level. We therefore believe that the ‘Sinaia Debates’ can become a project of national and international scope<\/em><\/p>\n

The 30-31 March edition will bring together the most competent and creative personalities, who will analyse one of the most topical and controversial concepts: the rule of law, its conditions and its functioning”, said the President of the Alexandrion Foundation, Nawaf Salameh.<\/em><\/p>\n
