Despre „poporul muncitor unic” și locul minorităţilor naţionale în cadrul „naţiunii socialiste” (II)
About the ‘unique working people’ and the place of national minorities within the ‘socialist nation’ (II)

Summary/Abstract: If the first part of this paper analyzed the administrative reorganization of the territory inhabited by ethnic Hungarians during the first decade, taking into account the ideological implications, both Leninist and nationalist, that underlied the official attitude of the Ceaușescu regime towards minorities, the second part focuses briefly on the Jews and the Germans before returning to Hungarians and the nationalist tensions that characterized, among other components, Romanian domestic policies in the 1980s. The study explores the romantic-Leninist approach of the concept of nation and why the „unique working people” left no room for parallel national identities.
