Abstract
Jewish population of Romania represents one of the most interesting and complex ethnic group that inhabited Romanian land from centuries ago. Their history is linked to the Romanian history, with a period of almost 2,000 years of cohabitation in this part of Europe. The evolution of this ethnic group was heavily influenced by the migratory movement. Having a low birth rate, the immigration represented in almost every historical period the base of population evolution for Jews. More than any other ethnic group, the Jewish population of Romania travelled in or out our country starting with the beginning of our millennium until today. From this very large period of time, the 19th and 20th century represented “the tip of the ice”, the period that influenced the numeric evolution for good. This article tries to present just this important and complex period in the life of Romanian Jews and mostly, the changes that took place during the 19th and 20th century. Also, the motives and general reason is presented as a base of the future understanding of the migratory process.
