A Historical Perspective on the Work and Rest Dynamic in the Romanian Ethos

ABSTRACT: For Romanians the work-rest dynamic is a product of historical forces unique to this population. Therefore, the factors that have influenced the relation of Romanians to the work and rest dynamic and fatigue were examined. The factors are the turbulent medieval history of the Romanian people, the Orthodox Church, whose teachings have played an essential part in the development of the Romanians’ relation to work and rest, as well as the communist regime and the social and economical dynamics specific to the post-1989 era. KEY WORDS: work, rest, exhaustion, history, Romania, Comunism
