The Anti-Communist Resistance: Scientific Research and Museum Valuation
vol II, Argonaut Publishing House, 2006. Editors: Cosmin Budeanca, Florentin Olteanu, Iulia Pop
The main theme of the book undertakes various aspects of the communist regime, from the re-education process that took place in the prisons of Piteşti and Târgşor to the deportations to the Bărăgan Plain, as well as to the multiple manifestations of Romanians in exile. The great majority of the studies within the volume present various ways towards a productive museum valuation of the communist period, namely ways of organizing communism-centred exhibitions. Last but not least, one should also mention the studies which propose educational projects referring to the communism regime.
