Global Dialogue’s Romanian Team

December 12, 2014

We joined Global Dialogue (GD) with GD3.1 in November 2012. Since then, our team has changed with every number, but this is a positive feature, as we all have learned from each other in the process of translating and editing the Romanian version of Global Dialogue. We are all sociologists, the majority still PhD students, enthusiastic and passionate about our interests in sociology. The diverse topics in Global Dialogue have offered us, the GD Romanian team – as well as our professors and fellow colleagues – the opportunity to explore a global society.

Our team has six constant members who are presented below together with colleagues who have participated in at least five GD issues. Besides these permanent members, 11 other colleagues joined the team for at least one issue: Ramona Cantaragiu, Cristian Constantin Vereș, Angelica Helena Marinescu, Monica Nădrag, Ioana Cărtărescu, Mădălin Rapan, Andreea Acasandre, Daniela Gaba, Alexandru Duțu, Gabriela Ivan, Levente Szekedi.
