La dernière révolution léniniste. Pensée et pratique d’une autorité révolutionnaire en Roumanie
The Last Leninist Revolution: Theory and Praxis of a Revolutionary Authority in Romania

Summary/Abstract: Has the Romanian Revolution of 1989 produced a renewed vision of post-communist political authority? Can the fall of Romanian communism in December 1989 be seen as the end of a political venture that informed the political institutions and the exercise of political power for several decades? What was rejected and what remained from the Romanian communism as a political system after the Revolution of 1989? In order to answer these questions, the study explores the ways the newly emerging and established political actors right after the demise of the Romanian Communist Party thought of themselves as “revolutionaries”, envisaged the political change, its imperatives and its emergences, and acted as political authorities in charge of this political transformation.
