Summary/Abstract: After 1990, religion is present in all spheres of private life in Romania, becoming again one of the major identity factors. Of all its forms of expression, Confession is the greatest theological and ritual complexity. Despite its importance, it has been little or not all studied. This article is actually an invitation to the study of sociological and anthropological Confession, with the purpose of presenting its unique and important role within the whole contemporary religious fact.
