Agrarian and Electoral Reform in the Romanian Parliament's Debates

Abstract

The lack of ample studies on the impact of the Russian Revolution on Romania and Romanian society led to the general belief that its impact was rather modest. Studying the debates in the Romanian parliament and the political oposition to the agrarian and electoral reforms, using new available records from the British archives, this article aims to demonstrate that the Romanian political elite was deeply affected by the February Revolution and concerned about its possible consequences.
