Abstract

The paper discusses the visible nationalist reactions of the Romanian authorities given to the demands of the Hungarian minority community in Romania. These reactions are reflected in certain judicial and administrative decisions, therefore the paper focuses on analyzing those instances. First the paper approaches the issue of the Romanian nation-state from a general perspective, then it proceeds with presenting the attitude of the Romanian authorities towards some political issues of Hungarian interest (territorial autonomy, minority symbols, use of the Hungarian language), revealing also the leading motifs of the Romanian nationalist discourse.
