TACT PUBLISHING HOUSE

TACT Publishing House is an independent publishing house set up in 2005 by an enthusiast group of former students in philosophy. Focused mostly on relevant contemporary authors, particularly associated with critical thought (philosophy, sociology, history), Tact has been growing ever since into one of the most important publishers in philosophy and contemporary critical thinking in Romania.
