The new dominant force in Romanian politics after the 23 August coup was the Communist Party. Its leaders set out under Soviet direction to effect a Communist revolution, in furtherance of which they were driven by ideology to purge institutions of those who had served not only the Antonescu regime, but also those of the pre-war governments.

The change involved two momentous decisions. The first was Antonescu’s refusal to participate in the Final Solution, the second his reversal of the policy of deportation to Transnistria. Not only did he decide against acceding to German requests that the remaining Jewish population of Romania — from the Banat, southern Transylvania, Wallachia and Moldavia — be sent to the death camps in Poland, but he also suspended the deportations to Transnistria.

Revista apare fără întrerupere din 1992. Sfera Politicii a jucat şi joacă un rol important în difuzarea principalelor teme de ştiinţă şi teorie politică şi în constituirea şi dezvoltarea unei reflecţii politologice viabile în peisajul ştiinţific şi cultural din România. Sfera Politicii pune la îndemâna cercetătorilor, a oamenilor politici şi a publicului, analize, comentarii şi studii de specialitate, realizate pe baza paradigmelor teoretice şi metodologice ale ştiinţei şi teoriei politice actuale. Sfera Politicii îşi face o misiune din contribuţia la consolidarea şi dezvoltarea societăţii democratice şi de piaţă în România.

In doing so, our hope is that the fruits of the labours of a number of scholars, in particular of several scholars in Romania, will reach a wider audience and thus dispel the mist of mystery that for some still envelops the early stages of the development of Moldavia.

Ion Antonescu was Romania's ruler from September 1940 to August 1944 and a major ally of Hitler. Romania fielded the third largest Axis army of the war, joined the Tripartite Pact in November 1940 as a sovereign state, participated in the attack on the Soviet Union of 22 June 1941 as an equal partner of Germany, and was never occupied by the Wehrmacht.
