Summary/Abstract: This paper focuses on the first postwar period of Romania and on the fear of a socialist menace. The experiences of Hungary and Russia, and their geographic threat, emphasized the danger of a socialist revolt also in Romania. Some troubles effectively conditioned this troublesome phase, but, according to the documents of the Italian officers, they were not excessively serious and grave. Their perception, anyway, was a little bit different, and the agitations were strictly connected to the irredentist interests of Soviet Russia and Hungary by Romanian politics.
