Summary/Abstract: The evolution of the Human Rights Movement in the first months of the year 1977, amid the preparation of the Conference for Security and Cooperation in Europe in Belgrade and the effects of the March 4, 1977 Vrancea earthquake, did not go unnoticed by the western intelligence services and media. Similar to the Czechoslovakia`s Charter 77, the purpose of the Goma movement was to draw attention to the Conference members on the non-observance of the human rights by the Ceausescu regime.
