The state became the essential instrument of communist political action, having the "historical" mission to transform capitalist society into a communist one, to eliminate the "old ruling class" (capitalist, bourgeois, political, legal and security institutions national or education and culture, etc.). This "revolutionary" action meant the destruction of the Romanian political, economic and cultural elites that had crystallized in the period between the two world wars. On this virgin site, cleansed of "the tares of the bourgeois classes and of her servants," she was preparing to establish and sow a new dominant class, "truly democratic, with country love". The new political class came from workers and peasants, authentic representatives of "the people." In this social reconstruction a special role was played by the new reformed state, renewed in its ideological foundations and whose alveoli were populated with new representatives of the popular population.
