This year we celebrate 130 years since the birth of Victor Slăvescu, one of the most prominent Romanian economists. His various activity took place over a period of time marked by a succession of exceptional events: two world wars, the Great Union of 1918, the interwar period and the beginning of communism. It was an epoch characterized by profound transformations of the economic, political and social system. We take a look at his publishing activity, his career, the recognition he gained from his peers and the general public. In this paper we use mainly archive sources to uncover some long-forgotten perspectives on the life and work of Victor Slăvescu.
