Take Ionescu was a proponent of what attitude based on his more traditional beliefs?
Take Ionescu Take or Tache Ionescu (] ; born Dumitru Ghiță Ioan and also known as Demetriu G. Ionnescu; October 25 [O.S. October 13] 1858 – June 2, 1922) was a Romanian centrist politician, journalist, lawyer and diplomat, who also enjoyed reputation as a short story author. Starting his political career as a radical member of the National Liberal Party (PNL), he joined the Conservative Party in 1891, and became noted as a social conservative expressing support for several progressive and nationalist tenets. Ionescu is generally viewed as embodying the rise of middle-class politics inside the early 20th century Kingdom of Romania (occasionally described as "Takism"), and, throughout the period, promoted a project of Balkan alliances while calling for measures to incorporate the Romanian-inhabited Austro-Hungarian regions of Transylvania, Banat and Bukovina. Representing his own faction inside the Conservative Party, he clashed with the group's leadership in 1907-1908, and consequently created and led his own Conservative-Democratic Party.
Nicolae Xenopol Nicolae Dimitrie Xenopol (] ] , also Nicu Xenopol; Francized "Nicolas Xenopol"; October 11, 1858 – December 1917) was a Romanian politician, diplomat, economist and writer, the younger brother of historian Alexandru Dimitrie Xenopol and, like him, a member of "Junimea" society. Initially inspired by "Junimea" leader Titu Maiorescu, he was later a dissident of "Junimism", a Positivist and a supporter of literary realism. Politically, Xenopol also moved away from conservatism and was embraced by the liberal current, serving as editor of two liberal newspapers: "Românul" and "Voința Națională". He had a successful career in electoral politics, which began within the National Liberal Party and later saw him joining the Conservative-Democratic Party. In 1912, he was Minister of Commerce, and helped create an Academy of Economic Studies.
