- Abstract
In May 2006, the Minister of Justice and the Prime Minister of Romania publicly asked that the former Securitate archive be transferred in the custody of CNSAS, although more than 1,2 million files had been received by this institution in 2005. This was not a smooth process, and was covered by huge scandals highly debated by the Romanian media. Through this media coverage, the whole process of transferring files from one institution to another was seen as a sort of "fight" over the archive, "fight" that resolved pretty much nothing since every year the institution receives part of the archive. Based on all the above mentioned, this current article underlines the history of Securitate`s archive after the fall of communism, with a strong emphasis on the period of time between 2000 and 2008, at the same time giving a particular attention to the 2006 events, also providing a line of analysis over this events.
