Summary/Abstract: This study observes the evolution of the Jewish question in Romania in late 19th century, in the context of the tensions present between Jews and Romanians in 1897. Our analysis focuses first on reconstructing the events from the perspective of the factors involved (the Jewish minority and their associations, the Romanian authorities, political leaders). Another objective would be to analyse the manner in which the events were reflected among the public opinion, depending on the channels of communicating used by the factors involved (publications, periodicals, conferences), as well as to identify the involvement of the Romanian society in the events that took place and its positioning in relation them. Last, but not last, this article tries a comparison between the various positions assumed by the members of the civil society and Romanian political class, depending on political orientation, ideological trends and personal options.
