This extensive bibliography of North American and West European social sciences research on Romania is also the only annotated bibliography to date on life under the iron rule of Ceausescu. A one-stop source of information about Romania's recent communist history, this guide pulls together over 1,000 citations from books, periodicals, reports, occasional papers, doctoral dissertations, and government documents in English as well as representative source materials in French and German. Students, teachers, librarians, and researchers in East European studies and international relations will find this research guide, with 21 topical chapters and author and subject indexes, invaluable in helping close a major information gap about this dark chapter in Romania's history.

Editorial Reviews

Review

“An interesting and carefully edited bibliography on all aspects of social, economic, and political life in Romania during Ceausescu's regime. Highly recommended for all public and academic collections.”–Choice

“Ceausescu's Romania: An Annotated Bibliography is the most comprehensive and up-to-date work on this topic. It reveals a multitude of sources about the obscure atmosphere of a society (the Romanian society in Ceausesu's society in Ceausescu's time) oppressed by one of the worst scourges of the late twentieth century--communism. Any library that supports a program of research and study on Eastern Europe should have this volume in its collections.”–Libraries & Culture
