Între compromis și rezistență: recuperarea istoricilor legionari P.P. Panaitescu și Vladimir Dumitrescu de regimul comunist
Between compromise and resistance: the recovery of the legionary historians P.P.Panaitescu and Vladimir Dumitrescu by the communist regime

Summary/Abstract: Throughout history intellectuals were interested in gaining political power and therefore showed an affinity for one ideology or another. History, especially, was closest to the political spectrum - and consequently, vulnerable to its interference. Our study brings together the figures of two historians – Petre P.Panaitescu and Vladimir Dumitrescu - the Legion, to which they adhered and the communist regime, which has recovered them. The core of our research is the way in which they reevaluated their relation with the Iron Guard after August 23, 1944 and the reasons why the two have managed to continue their careers during the communist regime.
