“In a comparison of the cultural policies of two polar opposite dictatorships, Caterina Preda highlights in an intriguing manner the main goal of any authoritarian regime: subjecting society and individuals to an all-encompassing order. While the Pinochet dictatorship spawned a politicized art and a culture of opposition, although it has advocated a de-politicized art and culture, in the case of Ceaușescu, a dictatorship desiring a politicized art managed to create a culture of artistic dissidence.” (Renée Fregosi, Research Director in Political Science, University Paris Sorbonne-Nouvelle, France)
