Summary/Abstract: During the four decades of communist rule in Romania, the state policy towards ethnic minorities has undergone many stages of manifestation. In the first phase of the Romanian communism, the ethnic policy of the authorities fully followed the Soviet model. In our case studies of ethnic minorities in Romania during the ‘40s and early ‘50s there were observed positive effects of the legal provisions on the cancellation of the previous ideological restrictions regarding minorities. A new stage begins towards the end of 1956 and extends to mid-70s when the rapid process of urbanization also results in a rapid change of the ethnic structure of cities.
