MEETINGS OF PSYCHOLOGISTS FROM THE DANUBIAN COUNTRIES: A LITTLE STEP TOWARD EUROPEAN UNIFYING PROCESSES

Abstract:

Elementary characteristics are used to describe traditional professional events - not conferences or seminars - but Meetings of Psychologists of the Danube Countries (1967-1993). After the first three held in Slovakia, they then took place successively in all the countries (excepting Romania) through which the mighty European river - the Danube - flows. They were attended by foremost experts from research institutes (Academies of Sciences) and Universities - over 500 in all. The study describes the strategic import of the Meetings and selectively also some of their gains and results.
