This article represents the result of a complex research on Violence in its different forms. This research deepens the concept of political violence, identifies the factors and indicators that determine it in history; also we identified and analized the current trend of this phenomenon. The theoretical value is imposed by the lack of such research in the Romanian space but also by the lack of a common denominator on the definition and manifestations. The applicative value stems from current policy trends to become anonymous and functional; this paper contributes to familiarizing public opinion with this phenomenon.
