Since then there have been three democratic changes of government: in 1996, the democratic-liberal opposition and its leader Emil Constantinescu acceded to power ; in 2000 the Social Democrats returned to power, with Iliescu once again president ; and in 2004 Traian Băsescu was elected president, with an electoral coalition called Justice and Truth Alliance ( DA ).

In 1996, Sokal submitted an article to Social Text, an academic journal of postmodern cultural studies.

The article " Transgressing the Boundaries: Towards a Transformative Hermeneutics of Quantum Gravity ", published in the Social Text Spring / Summer 1996 " Science Wars " issue, proposed that quantum gravity is a social and linguistic construct.

" Nonetheless, despite designating the physicist as a " difficult, uncooperative author ," and noting that such writers were " well known to journal editors ", Social Text published the article in acknowledgment of the author's credentials in the May 1996 Spring / Summer " Science Wars " issue.

In 1996, Social Text did not conduct peer review because its editors believed that an editorial open policy would stimulate more original, less conventional research.

In the May 1996 issue of Lingua Franca, in the article " A Physicist Experiments With Cultural Studies ", Sokal revealed that his " Transgressing the Boundaries " was a hoax and concluded that Social Text " felt comfortable publishing an article on quantum physics without bothering to consult anyone knowledgeable in the subject " because of its ideological proclivities and editorial bias.

One such example is Alan Sokal's " Transgressing the Boundaries: Towards a Transformative Hermeneutics of Quantum Gravity " ( 1996 ), in which Sokal submitted a seemingly real, but nonsensical, paper to the Journal Social Text in order to show that a supposedly serious journal in postmodern theory would accept a meaningless paper if it used sufficiently impenetrable language.
