Summary/Abstract: The study registers the main works dedicated to the elites after 1989. It will offer an insight on schools of thought and projects related with the history of intellectuals, a trend that has a meager history before 1989. An almost forbidden subject until the fall of communism, it has undergone a true reevaluation after 1989. We are concerned here with a thorough evaluation of subjects, methods and schools to round up over two decades worth of research into the history of the elite. The history of the elite has become a favorite theme of post-communist Romanian historiography entering a larger European/ Western historiographical trend
