Summary/Abstract: Between 1953 and 1958 Romania did not really break away from the Soviet sphere of influence, timid steps in that directions being all that happened. That was so because the Romanian leaders feared they might jeopardize their position and were concerned not to strain the relations with Moscow, especially after the events in Hungary. Only after the withdrawal of the Soviet troops did Romania gradually leave Moscow’s fold, yet only in point of foreign policy. Unfortunately, on the domestic front the Soviet model was further followed in building a totalitarian society.
