About RKR

Similar to the Russell Kirk Center for Cultural Renewal from Mecosta (Michigan, USA), Russell Kirk Romania aims to recover, conserve, and enliven those enduring norms and principles that Russell Kirk called the „Permanent Things”.

Our objectives are:

  1. to foster Russell Kirk’s legacy, moral imagination and humane literature;
  2. to widen the knowledge, understanding and appreciation of Russell Kirk’s books, essays and other published works;
  3. to study culture, history, customs, and traditions with the aim of strengthening the „Permanent Things”;
  4. to encourage debate in order to accommodate the diversity of views consistent with our commitment to truth, goodness, and beauty.

Founder and president of Russell Kirk Romania is the historian Remus Tanasă.

We also suggest to visit The Russell Kirk Center for Cultural Renewal from Mecosta (Michigan, USA) – www.kirkcenter.org. Based at Russell Kirk’s ancestral home of Mecosta, Michigan, The Russell Kirk Center hosts seminars, research, and fellowship opportunities in what is now a unique residential library and conference center. These activities, rooted in one of American conservatism’s historic places, constitute a lively educational community at the core of the Center’s mission.
