Those are not an option, but a must in building up a civilisation, a sustainable educational resource and shared knowledge. It is not just a simple statement but an incontestable true. We are privileged to encourage the wish of knowledge improvement of the new generations and to assist, to guide them through this qualitative process.

Our goal is to link and interconnect this impressive range of assets to create surplus value in the fields we promote. The realization of an ambitious and stimulating internationalization policy is one of the priorities of ”Lucian Blaga” University for the coming years. We realized that integrating an international dimension in the study path of each of our students is important and should become a main focus within our international policy plan.

After a long period of time of the development of the so-called socialist trading, the countries in the region were affected, with unprecedented intensity, by new, hitherto unknown forms of retailing within the expansion of foreign retail chains to their markets. Such changes took very marked effect in the urban structure of the landscape in these countries, for example in the Czech Republic. The following paper captures the basic extent of transformation of the Czech retail business and its refl ection in the urban environment. Key words: Czech Republic, internationalisation of retail, urban environment INTRODUCTION joint-ventures and strategic alliances.

The process of reducing disparities in Romania is maintaining sustained growth rates during 2007 - 2013, keeping at the same time, macroeconomic equilibrium levels more stable. The determining factor for economic growth, on the open market a competitor, is to increase economic competitiveness. In addition, exploitation of competitive advantages must be a permanent objective, taking into account both European trends, and the challenges of globalization. Therefore, increasing competitiveness should not be viewed as a process of exploitation of short-term advantages (eg low cost of labor), but as a process of building an economic structure based on capital investment and research processes, development and innovation. In other words, articulating a vision of convergence on medium and long term need to consider developing a knowledge-based economy. Although substantial progress in recent years, Romania has serious gaps in competitiveness in relation to the Western and Central Europe. The reasons for this sluggishness can be found in all the elements that determine the competitive ability. All are translated, ultimately, in a low productivity, which defines competitiveness problem in Romania.
