Summary/Abstract: This approach is an analysis of the political repression against the Catholic Church in Romania during the first decades of the Socialist regime. The author employs historical but also and complementary tools in focusing on the concept of treason, seen also as betrayal of the State, the clerical hierarchy, friends, and family. Using psychological, legal, and political definitions, it shows the case of a political prisoner turned informer in the 1950s and 1960s.
