Summary/Abstract: The last decade of Ceauşescu’s regime was called by the Romanian communist; the “golden age” for various reasons. At first, it looks like it was the peak of industrial development, political and social development of the Romanian society. In reality, the Romanians forced to live under Ceauşescu’s auspices called that period the “dark ages”. This article aims, first, to present the way in which propaganda masked the shortcoming of the Party and Ceauşescu’s policy, by building a fight towards a more or less real enemy, called the peace fight. Secondly, aims to presents the way this peace propaganda appears in the national press during the ‘80s.
