Refacerea politică şi extinderea organizatorică a frontului plugarilor în anii 1944-1945
The Political Rebuild and the Organizatoric Expansion of the Ploughman Front between 1944-1945

Summary/Abstract: In the present study we intend to analyze the historical process of restoration and the organizational broadening of the Fieldsmen Front. We take into consideration the role of the Communist Party in the foundation and the organization of this Front and also refer to the first day(s) of the foundation of this organization. From its very beginning (1933) the Fieldsmen Front was one of the most obsequious political organizations in relation to the Romanian Communist Party. In consequence, after the Second World War this organization acknowledged its most far-reaching development. This organization had helped with “loyalty” the Communists to take over the power in the Romanian state. The Communists saw the Fieldsmen Front as the best antidote in relation to the national peasants (chiaburi) at the countryside. During the years 1944-1945 the Communists got strongly involved in supporting the development of the organizational field structures. The intention of the Fieldsmen Front was to gather as many members as they could, and in a short time from a local organization it turned into a national one. After March 6th 1945 the political expansion of the Front in the countryside was made possible by the state which offered all the logistic support. The aim was to gain the electorate from the rural milieu against the national peasants (chiaburi).
