Summary/Abstract: The study is dedicated to the interwar period debates and the collations regarding the defining of national identity, especially the defining of the concept of “Transilvanism”. The ideology that animated them is mainly highlighted by the polemics between the minority representatives (Hungarian, German and Jewish) and the Romanians, published in the cultural media. Although I have thoroughly followed the main directions of these debates, I have focused on two crucial moments, 1928 and 1933, when, based on different reasons, these have became incendiary.
