Summary/Abstract: Settlement with distinct resonance and strong and clearly defined personality, Dej, the city at the confluence of the two Someș rivers, loses its beginnings in the mists of history. With its roots in the Menumorut voivodeship, the residence of Solnocul Interior county was established in Dej, then of Solnoc-Dăbâca county, the capital of Solnoc-Dăbâca and Someș counties. In the period 1950-1968, the Romanian society already started entering the communist regime, and in Dej was established the residence of the district with the same name. Significant economic, political and social transformations took place in the city. The struggle against the establishment of communism can be considered to have begun in Dej, through what was called the "revolt at the Someș Bridge”, but which drew serious repercussions on the local population and everyday life. After the nationalizations from 1948-1949, the socialist industrialization and urbanization of the city took place. With the administrative reform of September 6, 1950, Someș County was abolished. By building the Pulp and Paper Plant, the Furniture Factory, the Artificial Fiber Enterprise, Protan, the Refractory Products Enterprise, the Dej-Triaj Depot, or the "June 11" Cannery, etc., the city of Dej has experienced an overall development, amodernization of the infrastructure and an increase of the living standard of the population. Following the administrative reform of February 16, 1968 regarding the administrative organization of theterritory of the Socialist Republic of Romania, the city of Dej lost its importance as an administrative center, becoming a municipality within Cluj County
