Developing the sustainable thinking of students is an important preoccupation of specialists, teachers, and civil society. Information literacy represents the development of students’ skills to search, identify, evaluate, and ethically use scientific information. Is there a connection between sustainable thinking (ST) and information literacy (IL)? Through a scientometric study in the Web of Science (WOS) database, the authors identify clusters of keywords, analyze the articles identified in WOS, and identify the main research directions and the existing concepts. At the same time, a qualitative research study is performed regarding the opinions of students who participated in the IL class. By corroborating and interpreting the results obtained by the two previously mentioned research, the authors demonstrate a close correlation between the two, thus creating an extended map of these concepts, a limited map of the concepts used, and a theoretical map of the concepts. The connection between information literacy and the development of ST is demonstrated, thus creating the premise for a new research direction.

The influence of international relations after the 1815 Vienna Congress has defined the relation and equilibrium of forces in Europe; at the same time, it would cause the „oriental crisis” to become a general issue, much like the issue of the Romanian principates which started to state their legitimate claims regarding the right to social and national emancipation, all converging towards the diplomatic effort necessary for the creation of a national, independent state, in accordance with the objectives stated in the Dacian-Roman ideology.

Law as a complex social reality interferes with other normative systems among which those of a moral-religious nature occupy a central place, suffering from them a direct influence both in terms of the realization of the law and in terms of its application. This ethical foundation of Roman law made possible the creation of a coherent normative system that crossed 12 centuries of existence remaining as a valuable treasure of the ancient civilization, which represented a configuration factor of future posthumous legal regulations. Making an exhaustive analysis of the legal phenomenon expressed by the concept of„jus civilae", we will show that the Romanian legislators combined tradition with innovation, valorizing, at the same time, the principles of a moral order creating legal institutions that have remained enshrined in the specialized doctrine

Status civitatis configured by the laws of the first Romanian Assembly held in Sibiu between 1863 and 1864 reflects a change of essence of the constitutional regime of Transylvania, by enacting, for the very first time in Romania, a principle of liberal democracy, that of representing the citizen in the chosen institutions of the state.
