The paper proposes an analysis of the Hungarian Water Inspectorate's organizational culture from micro and macro perspectives, based on a survey within Hofstede's research framework. The paper begins with a description of the Hofstede model, previous Hungarian studies based on it, and the existing micro and macro cultural studies; next it presents the organization in a historical perspective. The major aims of authors' analysis within the above mentioned theoretical framework are twofold: (1) description of a possible cultural typology on regional level for the studied organization; (2) identification of the relevant subcultures within the organization.

This article highlights the heuristic usefulness of “cultural triangulation”, a concept attempting to exceed the dominant schemata for the analysis of intercultural relations in current comparative cultural studies, which are generally limited to binary mechanisms of the type (culture) A “sees”/constructs/influences/dominates (culture) B. In contrast to this reductionist tendency, I argue that all (inter)cultural processes have an ideologically filtered nature and consequently imply the mediation of the relationship between A and B via an intermediary C, to which various roles are assigned (e. g., to hide/alter/compensate/reverse various power relations, which are under no circumstances obvious or inevitable). My study explores the dynamics of this mechanism of cultural triangulation by analysing some of the most representative travelogues to China written by Romanian authors during the communist era: G. Călinescu’s Am fost în China Nouă (I’ve Been to New China, 1955), Eugen Barbu’s Jurnal în China (Chinese Diary, 1970), and Paul Anghel’s O clipă în China (One Moment in China, 1978).
