Studierea istoriei comunismului românesc în cadrul Institutului de Istorie „N. Iorga“ (1989-2011)
Studying the History of Romanian Communism at the „N. Iorga“ History Institute (1989-2011)

Summary/Abstract: This paper shed more light on the historical research which covered the history of communism in Romania after 1989; preeminently the article describes the activities and the academic biographies of some historians mainly from „Romania and Europe in XXth Century“ Research Program who focused on the study of post-war Romania, USSR, and Eastern Europe. On the other hand, one underlined the fact that studying the History of Romanian communism at the „N. Iorga“ History Institute was not the monopoly of the aforementioned Research Program; some historians specializing in Medieval and Modern studies chose also to cover important issues of recent history, particularly the history of communist regime. Finally, one tried to analyze the post-1989 historiographical context in which „N. Iorga“ History Institute’s researchers worked, mainly in comparison with the better-financed governmental agencies such as INMER (National Institute for the Memory of Romanian Exile), and IICCMER (The Institute for the Investigation of the Communist Crimes and the Memory of the Romanian Exile).
