Association for Transylvanian Studies. Romanian section of the Arbeitskreis für Siebenbürgische Landeskunde e.V. Heidelberg

By virtue of the common goals and objectives shared by the Institute of Social Sciences and Humanities and the Research Group for Transylvanian Studies (Arbeitskreis für Siebenbürgische Landeskunde Heidelberg), materialized in collaborations, documentary internships and numerous scientific events, a Romanian section of the Research Group was established in 1993. The Association for Transylvanian Studies was founded in Sibiu in 2000 in order to give more coherence to the specific activities and to continue the research projects together with the parent German institution. The association has organized a substantial number of scientific sessions with international participation and contributed to the capitalization of the results in the Transilvanica book series.
