In this second analytical chapter of the book, the focus turns to Romania and its citizens’ acceptance of state surveillance for national security objectives. It uses individual-level data from a national survey conducted in Romania on a representative sample of 1028 respondents. The statistical analysis explains the relationship between personality traits: agreeableness, conscientiousness, extraversion, neuroticism, and openness to experience; as well as other factors: engagement in community, subjective information, age, education, gender, and TV consumption, and the acceptance of state surveillance. The analysis is based on secondary literature (previous studies and press reports) and is coupled with information about the socio-political realities of Romania.
