Work (Re)integration Following a Chronic Illness Diagnosis in Romania
A substantial proportion of the workers diagnosed with chronic diseases try to find employment or return to work after treatment. Nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) are key actors in this process of work (re)integration alongside other stakeholders, yet their role has been little studied across countries, and almost not at all in Romania. An in-depth exploration of how NGOs are involved in this process was done through semi-structured interview…
Yoga, Hinduism, and the Orthodox Christian Culture
This study examines the attitudes of both instructors and attendees of the confessional Orthodox Christian religion class in Romania toward yoga. It examines whether individuals are more familiar with religious or secular forms of yoga and whether they approach it with curiosity, neutrality, or opposition. As yoga is rooted in Hindu traditions and is often associated with Hinduism when viewed in a religious context, the study also examines the at…
Forging bonds beyond the national area. Exploring international interaction among radical right populist parties
The rise of radical right populism across Europe has been linked to broader societal shifts and individual susceptibility to populist narratives.

Compared to non-working students, working students, welcomed this new…
