Summary/Abstract: During the last two censuses (and mainly during the one in 1992), the question of how the authorities interpret ethnic categories has been many times hysterically raised. More precisely the question of how they classify, how they interpret, how they group statistically such regional identities as the Székely, or such borderline identities as the Csángó. The present study summarizes the concepts and theories that arise in connection with the methods of categorization and classification used in censuses (but not only). The author specializes in the sociology of minorities. E-mail: ihorvath66@yahoo.com
