| Summary: | As long as the Department of International Economic
Relations, within the Academy of Economic Studies in
Bucharest (AES), belonged to the Faculty of Commerce,
until 1991, by the positions held and his personality, in the
‘70s and ‘80s, the destiny of the faculty was influenced by
Professor Alexandru Puiu, Ph.D. In 1977, as Dean, he was
the initiator of a new specialisation – Economy of public
food services and tourism (ESAPT). He was awarded the
“Petre S. Aurelian” Prize of the Academy for the
contribution brought to the literature. He used to invite the
best experts of the time for his courses; so in the ’80s, for
the academic subject of International economic relations,
the courses on international financial-currency relations
were given by the distinguished Professor Costin Kiriţescu
and by the young researcher from the Institute of World
Economy Mugur Isărescu. Although perceived as
demanding, both with himself and with the others, Professor Alexandru Puiu has imposed
himself as a righteous and impartial leader. Immediately after 1989 he reinvented himself
while fulfilling his vocation as “builder”. In 2011 he was awarded the “Virgil Madgearu”
Diploma of AES, with a Gold Medal. His professional projects are continued by his son
Ovidiu Puiu, already Ph.D. Professor and rector of “Constantin Brâncoveanu” University.
