Abstract: (En) The Christian-Nationalist doctrine (or cuzism) appeared in the Romanian political life at the end of the XIXth century. It was theorized by A. C. Cuza who, in the period between the two World Wars, exposed his anti-Semitic ideas in some publications. Cuzism represented a radical form of the anti-Semitic tendency existing in the Romanian political life. This doctrine included racial, religious, social, economic and political components. The final purpose of the Christian-Nationalist doctrine was to eliminate the Jews from all domains of the social, economic, military, cultural and political life in Romania and in Europe. Even if it didn't have a major role in the political life between the two World Wars, the Christian-Nationalist doctrine is a reference political current in the study of anti-Semitism in Romania between the two World Wars.
