Summary/Abstract: The labour units in Romania were established on January 14, 1950 and replaced on August 22, 1952 with labour colonies. These were detention centres for those who, “through their deeds and acts have directly or indirectly jeopardized or attempted to put in jeopardy the people’s regime, have made difficult or attempted to make difficult the building of socialism in the R.P.R. (The People’s Republic of Romania), have defamed the organs of the state power...” In this issue we publish six decisions by the Ministry of Domestic Affairs to detain political prisoners in labour units from July 31 to September 26, 1951.
