Summary/Abstract: The years preceding the First World War marked the final stage in the development of Romanians national movement in Transylvania. The political debates, the diversity of views and strategies generated grouping and regrouping among leaders. The archbishop of Reghin, Ariton Popa is an exponent of his time, a priest of the country, schooled at Blaj and Budapest. His activity in the Romanian National Party, his correspondence with some leaders of national movement, his relationship with the bastion of passivity from Cluj, represents in fact the dilemma that has characterized the Romanian communities in the early twentieth century.
