2. IULIU MANIU
• IULIU MANIU( January 8,
1873 – February 5, 1953)
was
a Romanian politician. A
leader of the National
Party of Transylvania and
Banat before and
after World War I, he
served as Prime Minister
of Romania for three
terms during 1928–1933,
and, with Ion Mihalache,
co-founded the National
Peasants' Party.
3. • Maniu was born to an ethnic Romanian family
in Szilágybadacsony, Austria-Hungary (now
Badacin, Romania); his parents were Ioan
Maniu and Clara Maniu. He finished the Calvinist
College in Zalău in 1890, and studied Law at the Franz
Joseph University, then at the University of
Budapest and that of Vienna, being awarded
the doctorate in 1896.
• Maniu joined the Romanian National Party of
Transylvania and Banat (PNR), became a member of
its collective leadership body in 1897, and represented
it in the Budapest Parliament on several occasions. He
settled in Blaj, and served as lawyer for the Greek
Catholic Church (to which he belonged). Maniu was
influenced by the activity of Simion Bărnu iu, aț
maternal uncle of his father, Ioan Maniu.
4. Opposition to communism
• Subsequently, Maniu was a prominent
supporter of the Western Allies and one
of the main adversaries of
growing Soviet influence in Romania.
His party became the predilect target of
PCR hostility. PN supporters andȚ
Communists engaged in several street
fights in February 1945.
• The PN finished a distant second inȚ
the November 1946 general election with
33 seats, well behind the Communist-
dominated Bloc of Democratic Parties.
After the fall of Communism, some
authors went as far as to claim that the
PN had actually won the election, butȚ
was denied victory due to
widespread electoral fraud on the part of
the pro-Communist Petru
Groza government.
5. Death
• Iuliu Maniu died in
1953 in Sighet prison,
and his body was
thrown into the
common grave in the
courtyard.
