Abstract: Abstract This chapter explores the basic ideas and models underlying the agricultural reform policies in post-communist Romania, around the turn of the twenty-first century, during the period its policies were transitioning to be fully shaped by the European Union accession process. The chapter captures the dynamic before and during this moment. The analysis focuses on the legislative policy measures and tries to reconstruct from their structure and intended objectives, the underlying concepts and theories that guided the process of policymaking around this pivotal period. In parallel, this chapter argues that the efficiency consequences that were supposed to follow from the restoration of the private ownership of the land in agriculture were less impressive than initially expected.
