Iat\u0103 o perspectiv\u0103 care poate converti un dic\u0163ionar de personalit\u0103\u0163i istorice \u00eentr-o carte de lectur\u0103 pasionant\u0103. Mai ales c\u00e2nd acestea sunt, ca \u00een cazul “Enciclopediei \u015fefilor de stat \u015fi de guvern ai Rom\u00e2niei”, de\u0163in\u0103torii puterii supreme, responsabilii de decizii prin care – sau poate, uneori, \u00eempotriva c\u0103rora – s-a construit Rom\u00e2nia modern\u0103, de la Cuza \u015fi Kog\u0103lniceanu p\u00e2n\u0103 ast\u0103zi.<\/p>\n
Biografiile lor, prezentate cu impar\u0163ialitatea istoricului experimentat, ne pot ajuta s\u0103 le \u00een\u0163elegem mecanismele \u015fi mobilurile, \u015ftiind de la \u00eenceput c\u0103 niciunul nu are o singur\u0103 cauz\u0103, c\u0103 au fost oameni \u015fi au fost “sub vremi”, cum zicea cronicarul, \u00een anumite condi\u0163ii sociale, politice, geopolitice.<\/p>\n
Toate acestea sunt prezentate sintetic \u00een lucrare, astfel c\u0103, prin cele 72 biografii, avem sinteza celor 150 de ani de istorie a Rom\u00e2niei de ast\u0103zi. Avem la \u00eendem\u00e2n\u0103 un instrument de evaluare ce nu poate fi contestat \u00een cazul unui om de stat: m\u0103sura \u00een care, \u00een contextul dat, a servit interesul \u0163\u0103rii sale.<\/p>\n
Nu de pu\u0163ine ori, aceasta s-a f\u0103cut prin pierderea de popularitate sau de sprijin, \u00eempotriva presiunilor externe sau interne, atr\u0103g\u00e2nd \u015fi suport\u00e2nd, \u00een numele unei idei, blamuri de tot felul. S\u0103 amintim aici secularizarea, \u00een 1863, a averilor m\u0103n\u0103stire\u015fti de c\u0103tre Cuza \u015fi Kog\u0103lniceanu, atribuit\u0103 de lumea preo\u0163easc\u0103 nefastelor idei revolu\u0163ionare franceze, care a adus \u00eens\u0103 \u00een circuitul economiei na\u0163ionale 25% din suprafa\u0163a \u0163\u0103rii. Sau introducerea de c\u0103tre Carol I a principiului rotativei guvernamentale, cu rezultate benefice pentru \u0163ar\u0103, prin implicarea celor dou\u0103 for\u0163e politice \u00eentr-un program continuu, acela al moderniz\u0103rii.<\/p>\n
\u00centr-un cuv\u00e2nt, un dic\u0163ionar ce nu ar trebui doar consultat, la nevoie, ci citit, privit \u00een el, ca \u00eentr-o oglind\u0103. O oglind\u0103 util\u0103 \u015fi pentru cei ce alegem, la fiecare patru sau cinci ani, pe liderii care iau decizii \u00een numele nostru, dar \u015fi pentru ei. S\u0103 nu uit\u0103m nici noi, nici ei, c\u0103, a\u015fa cum spunea Richard Nixon, “politicianul urmeaz\u0103 poporul, dar poporul \u00eel urmeaz\u0103 pe omul de stat”.<\/p>\n
