Summary/Abstract: Nationalism represented a powerful semantic catalyst for romantic Leninism, by which I refer to the Romanian communist ideology during the „Ceausescu era”, a hybrid and unique combination of Leninism, German philosophical romanticism, extreme nationalism and also Fascism. Within romantic-Leninist ideology, the nation was an integrative and oppressively imposed „from above” concept used as an instrument to dissipate and identitary annihilate the ethnic minorities by forcibly circumscribing them to the „unique working people”.
