Abstract

Since its independence in 1991, the Republic of Moldova faces a political struggle with regard to the definition of its identity and that of its inhabitants. In this context, the article determines how the Party of Communists of the Republic of Moldova (PCRM) and the President Vladimir Voronin use history in order to legitimise their position. Through discourse analysis, research shows that nationalism is an exclusive discourse constructed in an ad hoc manner, depending on the people in question and the context.
