From the personification of the power to the discredit of political representation

Summary/Abstract: With the consolidation of power of Nicolae Ceauşescu, his regime has become increasingly restrictive and abusive after 1980, leading to increased impoverishing of the population and to the unprecedented deterioration of living conditions. Every moment of a romanian life was overseen by the institutions of the State, and political enlistment was established from a young age. Privacy was closely guarded by measures that often injure human dignity, as were those relating to births control. The main features of the change of political regime in Romania since 1989, as well as in other former Communist countries of Europe, consisted of a return to political pluralism, free elections, structuring and expression of unlimited civil society. The legislative foundation of new post-Communist developments was represented in Romania, by the Constitution of 1991 (subject to review in 2003).
