Cum a început să fie predată ”Istoria românilor” în Republica Moldova

The introduction of the course 'History of Romanians' in Moldova's schools marked a significant achievement of the National Liberation Movement in the late 1980s. This change was closely linked to the revival of the Romanian language and national history, which had been suppressed for over 40 years under Soviet influence. The course was implemented in two phases, with a major restructuring of the curriculum in 1989 and the official introduction of the new program in 1990, led by Minister Nicolae Matcaș. Key historians, including Gheorghe Postică, played a crucial role in developing the curriculum, which aimed to present a national perspective on history, moving away from Soviet narratives. The course was officially launched on September 1, 1990, alongside the Romanian language course, marking a pivotal moment in Moldova's educational landscape.
