Summary/Abstract: Constantin Argetoianu was one of the most famous political men in Romania, perhaps the best to illustrate the term political opportunism. With a special experience, he also became president of the Council of Ministers, being a close friend of King Carol II. After leaving the country in May 1944, he would surprise everyone in November 1946, at a time when the political horizon was closing down to experience the latest political formula, the National Union, Work and Reconstruction. This study aims to identify the mobile of this action, for which he paid with his own life.
