This study aims at placing the Bessarabian socio-humanistic sciences in a broad Roma-
nian context and establishing their development directions for the first decade of the inter-
war period. Our goal is to establish the impact of the Union of 1918 on the framework of
socio-humanistic sciences in inter-war Bessarabia, the transformations produced in the first
inter-war decade and their impact on the field of socio-humanistic sciences, in particular,
and culture in general.
