Between Memory and History. The Memoirs Volumes

Summary/Abstract: Memoirs volumes constitute an important part of the existing literature on the Romanian communist regime. After 1989, historians gained limited access to the Romanian Communist Party’s archives. Furthermore, incomplete historical evidence regarding the informal aspects of the decision-making process within the state and its institutions, which the archival documents comprised, encouraged historians to search for other valuable resources for their investigations. As such, memoirs became a necessary and valuable instrument of research in approaching the entire communist period in Romania.
