ROMANIAN CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE GENERAL THEORY OF LAW AND THE PHILOSOPHY OF LAW IN THE FIRST HALF OF THE XXth CENTURY

It is of utmost importance that the evolution of the general theory and philosophy of law in the first half of the XXth century establishes their scientific and philosophical foundation within the framework of the juridical culture and practice of the epoch, bringing a valuable contribution to the field of the national and European legal doctrine which is valid even nowadays. Moreover, we can also state that the evolution of the general theory and philosophy of law during this interval coincided with the realization of the ideals of national unity and of a modern, democratic society in Romania. Outstanding personalities such as Nicolae Titulescu, Mircea Djuvara, Dumitru Drăghicescu a.s.o. contributed to the fulfilment of these ideals both through their scientific work and their juridical, political or diplomatic activity.
