Preliminarii la marea competiție națională Daciada 1971-1976
Preliminaries to the “Daciada” national contest, 1971-1976

Summary/Abstract: In the late 1970s, a new ideological-propagandistic invention was making its way in this country: the “Daciada great national contest - a source of good health, vigour, and high spirits.” This article dwells on some of the events instrumental in preparing the “Daciada.” It is fit here to show that mass sports had existed long before the “Daciada.” Moreover, neither the concept of mass sports nor the Daciada-like manifestations were Romanian inventions, but were taken over from the Soviet model.
