Abstract: (EN) The present study is a primary effort to identify and decript the identitary dynamics ofthe two most ancient ethnic communities of Romania, the Turks and Tatars. As a context framing, the paper shows the historic and demographic evolution of the Turks and Tatars allthroughout the 20 th century. Chronologically, the emphasys falls upon the communist period, to better envisage the way in which political, economic and social changes in the era were refelected in the ethnic and religious structures of the Turks and Tatars in Dobrudja and consequently to extend on identitary evolutions after 1990. By addingthe archive research to journalistic text analisys and field research (interviews, participative observation)the study traces the memory patterns of the communist period, the types of relations and attitudes createdin relation to the regime, together with the evolution of self-image and image of the other (Turk-Tatar), generated by the main identitary landmarks: ethnicity, religion, origins, mother tongue and traditions,inside the socialist society as well as after the fall of the communism.
