Punctul critic (The Critical Point) – Journal of Social, Political and Cultural Diagnosis The critical point is distributed in Romania and abroad. Its Advisory Board is made up of national and international personalities who are guarantors for its substantial content and objective analyses and studies. Leaving aside the intrinsic interest aroused by the themes discussed, the distinguishing mark of the journal is the blend of contributors, some of them being researchers possessed of an academic background, while others are involved in the cultural-artistic environment. The mix of contributors treating the same theme but from quite distinct perspectives make this journal look like a telling sample of the Romanian intelligentsia’s concerns, which cover the most relevant economic, social and cultural aspects of the nation’s life. The contributions of foreign personalities on international topics are landmarks and referential points on the way to genuine intellectual progress.
