This volume brings together contributions by a new generation of Romanian foreign policy analysts reflecting on the challenges, blind spots, and opportunities of Romania’s external action at a moment of profound geopolitical uncertainty. Against the backdrop of the war in Ukraine, renewed great power rivalry, and the erosion of the post–Cold War liberal order, the collection asks how Romania can remain a credible, visible, and proactive actor within the European Union and NATO while adapting to a more fragmented and competitive world. Collectively, the volume argues for a recalibration of Romania’s foreign policy thinking—from a reactive and formalist diplomacy to one grounded in strategic vision, institutional capacity, and democratic legitimacy. It calls for better coordination between domestic and external communication, stronger regional coalitions, and an active investment in Romania’s intellectual and diplomatic infrastructure. The overarching message is that greater visibility abroad requires deeper reflection, coherence, and participation at home.
