Summary/Abstract: After several decades of the official and national socialist process of agricultural transformation, located in Transylvanian settlement of Romos, marked out by archives and collective memory, the first enrolments in agricultural cooperatives are registered. During this decade (1949-1959), our research through the enlightened space of this allocated task, revealed staggering waves, created by the wind of communist repression, turbulent experiences, which our elders couldn’t forget. Liquidation of private propriety, phenomenon of “kulakusation-diskulakusation”, quota system, threatening, pressure, resilience, physical and/or psychological violence, arrest, detention, deportation and forced domicile, all these evoke difficult times, which as we expected couldn’t be forgotten.
