Summary/Abstract: The second half of the twentieth century was mark by a transformation of the relations between countries, their foreign activity becoming more complex. On the one hand, we witness the expansion of cultural diplomacy and scientific-technical contacts. On the other hand, we find a decisive impact of ideology on foreign policy act. The first de-Stalinization policies in Moscow and de-Sovietization in RPR have marked the ideological intensity of cultural activities. In the early years of de-Stalinization, it has been tried the upgrading of national culture, along with the Romanian government's intention to explore their own path of building socialism.The case of MSSR in the Romanian-Soviet cultural relations has not benefited from increased attention on the part of the Party or the cultural agitators. Nevertheless, a few moments have distinguished when we could witness a dynamic of cultural activities and events like „The Decade of MSSR in RPR” (1953) and „The Romanian Cultural Days in MSSR” (1958).
