The historical development of the Romanian political parties in the Bukovina and its most significant representatives in the Imperial Council and local Parliament (1861-1914)

Journal Title: Codrul Cosminului - Year 2011, Vol 17, Issue 2

Abstract

The study analyzes in a comparative manner how the Romanian political parties developed themselves in Bukovina, in the frame of the parliamentary system introduced in 1861 in this Duchy, as well as throughout the Habsburg monarchy. Introducing of a parliament system in Bukovina (1861), signifies actually a beginning of provincial politics. Over time, from the political factions of the Chernivtsy Landtag, which imitated the “Center” model (i.e. located in Vienna), resulted a Romanian political party. The Romanian National Party, led mostly by some great landowners, had a strong conservative affiliation. In the last decades of the 19th century and at the beginning of the 20th century, the leadership of these great landowners was strongly challenged by the rising Romanian bourgeoisie. In the famous debates of ideas, mainly about the “national idea”, intellectuals from the Romanian parties played a crucial role. The effect of these debates strongly influenced the rise and dissolution of the Romanian political parties.
