Abstract
This article argues that potential EU membership ca n function as a powerful impulse for the modernization of the economic, political and social systems of candidate countries. To illustrate this, evidence of the transformations of the Romani an state-societal interactions in the transition period are discussed, with special focus on privati zation, enterprise restructuring and competition policy. The article also explains why the Europeani zation process has so far worked more slowly and less effectively in Romania than in other Centr al and Eastern European countries. This analysis could be used as a learning experience for prospective EU members to adjust to the European environment.
