The Legionary Movement from Cold War Exile to Post-Communist Romania, 1986–1993

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

The aim of this paper is to shed light on the continuities and changes that far-right movements undergo throughout historical changes. It does so by focusing on the transnational and transgenerational dynamics through which the Legionary Movement fostered its existence from the settings of the Cold War exile to post-communist Romania. In order to illustrate these transnational and transgenerational dynamics, the paper compares the activities of the legionaries in their late Cold War exile with their activities in early post-communist Romania.
