The Debate in 21st Century Romania. Case Study – Bihor County

This paper is part of a series of studies that we have done, respectively that we intend to do in the next period. We started this study with the clarifications of legal, administrative and sociological aspects regarding this term. We aim to answer questions such as: How does the Bihor County Council manage to make its public agenda known through the "debate"? Is the citizen from Bihor County interested in the proposed public agenda? By participating in a debate organized at local / county level, the citizen participates directly in formulating a decision. From a methodological point of view, the ex-post evaluation of the phenomenon of debate in the 21st century Romania will be used, doubled by the method of content analysis, analysis of official, public, digital and non-digital documents.
