Summary/Abstract: December 1989 brings a new organization for romanian society. At the social level, the change of actors is remarcable. The working class rceives less importance in organizing the society. If during communism, now the worker is forced to ask, claim, he becomes an actor who has been denied his role. This change will bring frustration and a long string of dissatisfaction. Romanian literature captures human types expressing feelings of nostalgia or revolt against living during communism. This report between old and new becomes an important theme in Romanian literature after 2000.
