From the Paper:
"The Romanian Revolution of 1989Of all the revolutions which swept through Eastern Europe between 1988 and 1992, the Romanian revolution of December, 1990 stands out for the violence which occurred, the animosity of the people towards the overthrown rulers, and the uncertainty concerning the actual extent of change which took place. The events which took place in Romania between December 22, 1989 and January 1, 1990 were coupled with a level of violence which was unmatched by any of the other East Bloc revolts or by the dissolution of the Soviet Union in the Winter of 1991/92. Not only did the active participants in the rebellion forcibly capture Nicolae Ceausescu and his wife, Elena, after an attempted violent crackdown on the demonstrations, but the leaders of the rebellion also executed both after a questionable trial."
