Asociaţionism şi grupări politice la saşii ardeleni în deceniul 7 al secolului al XIX

  • Subiect: The study covers the role played by institutes and insurance companies in Transylvania in the second half of the 19th century in promoting ideas and principles of association and spirit of solidarity. These are a form of association practiced in Transylvanian society, an expression of guiding energies in the service of common goals. The case study refers to the Insurance Company of the Romanian-Saxon "Transilvania" which was established on the principle of solidarity cooperative, voluntary association and collective responsibility, as a successful example of how the company operated in the spirit of association Transylvanian half a century ago and even at inter-ethnic level. The 7th decade of the 19th century brings forth a modification in the juridical status of Transylvanian Saxons, who become from privileged nation a minority inside a nation state. This fact would determine, on the one hand, the national Transylvanian Saxon movement to reach its modern stage with the appearance of political groupings, which would later result in the formation of the Popular Transylvanian Saxon Party after the compromise of Mediaş in 1872. On the other hand, the Saxon University loses its leading role, its place being taken by the Evangelical Church, and within the same period, we carne across a surge of the associationist movement. We deal with a multitude of associations, ranging from cultural ones to commercial and including those of tourist or sporting nature. Their role within ethnic solidarity was of utmost importance, no matter the degree in which they managed to get involved in the extremely agitated political life of the Transylvanian Saxons. They managed to unite people sharing the same ideals and aspirations, their aim was the flourishing of the nation, in spite of the hardships it was daily confronted with.
