Quand l’exil à l’intérieur du pays engendre la Peur
In this short paper, we propose to analyze the Fear experienced by the Romanian intellectual when Secret Police could knock at his door at any time of night or day to imprison and torture him.Inoculate Fear represented the main instrument of torture practiced by the communist Secret Police.
