In the Romanian historiography, six periods are highlighted: the period of the first scientific historiography (the second half of the 19th century-1918), the interwar period(1919-1948), the Stalinist period(1948-1964), the period of the return to national values(1964-1975), the era of nationalist communism(1975-1989) and the climate of freedom after 1989. In an analytical and objective manner, the opinions outlined and stated by historians in each historiographic period are rendered.
