IDEOLOGIE ȘI PROPAGANDĂ ÎN ULTIMII ANI AI REGIMULUI CEAUȘESCU. CAZUL CINEMATOGRAFIEI ROMÂNEȘTI

Abstract

In the last part of the communist regime in Romania, it experienced a permanent degradation of the citizens’ standard of living. Despite increasingly aggressive propaganda, everyday reality revealed the growing problems of the regime. This general context present in Romanian society also had effects on the cinematographic field, where the propaganda accents increasingly targeted the entire population of Romania, with a special focus on the young generation. The latter had to be prepared much more carefully to increase the level of bearability, so as not to generate reactions of any kind. The study follows several aspects related to the way Romanian film was used as a propaganda tool by the Romanian regime in the last decade of communism in Romania.
