Din istoria Departamentului românesc al Radio Europa Liberă: izvoarele cercetării și istoriografia problemei
From the history of the Romanian Department of Radio Free Europe: the sources of research and the historiography of the problem

Summary/Abstract: This article primarily analyses historical sources on the Romanian Department of Radio Free Europe. Particular attention is given to documents from the Hoover Institution Archives (Stanford) and the Open Society Archives (Budapest), which shed light on RFE/RL’s activities. Secondly, the article reviews the main studies and monographs published over the past five decades on this topic. On the one hand, the author highlights the diversity of historical sources that remain insufficiently explored. On the other hand, the paper systematises the existing scholarly literature. Finally, the article points to several research projects initiated over the past three decades that merit further development in order to advance research on the contributions of the Romanian Department of Radio Free Europe to the struggle against the totalitarian regime, the defence of human rights, and the promotion of freedom and democracy.
