  Abstract:   What Laurenţiu Vlad tries to do in this work is to underline the identity dimension of the propaganda discourse used by Romania at the Paris universal exhibitions. Its participation in these exhibitions―in 1867, 1889, 1900, 1937―is a good opportunity to promote an identity discourse for external use. However, this discourse proves also useful for Romania’s personal and internal use, as all big subjects of the Romanian identity discourse are to be found both in the external propaganda discourse and in the one addressed to our own citizens. Thus, the identity discourse proves unitary.
