Abstract
THIS PAPER WILL TRY TO BRING INTO FOCUS THE EVOLUTION OF THE MINORITY ISSUE IN THE CONTEXT OF A PREVIOUSLY UNCHARTED SEGMENT OF THE HISTORY OF ROMANIAN - YUGOSLAV RELATIONS, SPANNING BETWEEN TWO TURNING POINTS IN THE HISTORY OF THE TWO COUNTRIES: THE DECEMBER 1989 ROMANIAN REVOLUTION AND THE BEGINNING OF THE YUGOSLAV WARS OF SECESSION IN JUNE 1991. FREED FROM THE IDEOLOGICAL CONSTRAINTS OF THE C OMMUNIST DISCOURSE, THE MINORITY ISSUE WILL HOLD A CENTRAL PLACE IN THE ROMANIAN-YUGOSLAV DIALOGUE OF THE EARLY POST-COLD WAR ERA AND WILL FACILITATE A NEW DYNAMIC IN THE COOPERATION BETWEEN THE TWO COUNTRIES, NOT ONLY AT A BILATERAL LEVEL BUT ALSO IN THE WIDER FRAMEWORK OF REGIONAL COOPERATION.
