Politica statului român față de minoritatea germană și maghiară 1944-1946
The Policy of the Romanian State regarding the German and Hungarian Minorities, (1944-1946)

Summary/Abstract: After the turnabout of August 23, 1944 the ensemble of the measures initiated by Romania’s new leadership to bring back a democratic regime to the nation also dealt with ethnic minorities. Despite these measures, the Romanian law enforcement bodies saw among many members of ethnic groups in Romania an increasingly clear tendency to disregard the authority of the state. Hungarian, Ukrainian, and Serbian chauvinists began to cooperate with their fellows in the neighboring countries, who had entered Romania by fraud in order to prepare the split of the territories where members of those minorities lived from Romania’s body, although in those areas the Romanians accounted for the majority, often the greatest majority of the population. The Lippovans of the Danube Delta had a similar attitude, along with the communist Jews in several cities of Moldavia, who correlated their plans with the Romanian supporters of that ideology, to incorporate Dobrudja and Moldavia into the Soviet Union.
