Summary/Abstract: A research focused on the changes in Romanian philosophy in the times of communist regime under the authority of ideology wasn’t made yet. My aim in this paper is to try to make the first steps in this direction in the form of a general discussion about the cultural and political framework immediately after the Second World War in the so called “obsessive decade” when the excessive Stalinist ideology produced many intrusive changes at the level of academic community and in the cultural public life. My goal is just to launch some challenges in a metaphorical manner, opened a debate about the relations between the popular democracy and the academic community.
