Summary/Abstract: Quarterly Polis was established in 1994 under the auspices of the Institute for Marketing and Polls. Today, Polis is resumed as a publication of the Faculty of Political Sciences of the University "Petre Andrei" University Iasi. The first issue of quarterly proposed in 2016 entitled "Fascism and Communism in post-communist Romania." - Constantin Ilaș annotates about the "scandal pink pony" in "New man riding pony pink with swastika";- Momoc Antonio made considerations in "Fascism and Communism in post-communist Romania. Dimitrie Gusti and avoidance the fascist trap ";- Sorin Bocancea wrote about - "Methodological challenges in the research of communism in Romania”; - Alexandru Florian open theme "Public memory of the Holocaust in post-communist." In many cases, the author does not understand the ideas of texts that comment. Polis publication uses peer-review system. It is surprising that the article of Alexandru Florian passed academic filter.- Marius Oprea's article, "After Florian’s Law, Oprea’s Law" a bill promotes an explicit correspondent of Law 217/2015, Marius Oprea part of those who believe that "the Holocaust and the crimes of communism are faces of the same coin - crime against humanity - and that, legislative and judicial, should be treated the same". To the proposed draft law by Marius Oprea is open to counter-arguments used for O.U.G. no. 31/2002 and Law no. 217/2015: a serious restriction on fundamental rights, excessive in relation to what is natural in a healthy democracy. The authors of such severe regulatory measures forget that the persons guilty for the past are not punished by these restrictions, anywise our contemporaries. Justice is food of democracy, but protecting the freedoms is the air that democracy breathes.
