Interviewer instructions
Ethnicity (item 15)

62. The enumerator will record, as the person should freely declare to which ethnicity he belongs -- according to its option-by observing the fundamental right of the person.

[p. 43]

The census staff members have the obligation to assure all the conditions, in order that each person should declare freely, without any constraint the ethnicity to which he belongs.

The ethnicity should not be confounded with citizenship, or mother tongue. Coincidence may exists, or not with one of them, (or maybe with both).

The way of recording:


-- the mark x will be recorded on the right side box, for the code 10 -- for persons declaring as belonging to the Romanian ethnicity;
-- for the persons declaring as belonging to ethnicity other than Romanian -- on the provided space will be recorded the ethnicity as it was declared. The registration will be done exactly as it appears on the compilation form CER and on the "Code List of ethnicity" (see paragraph 122), but nevertheless will be recorded also, if is the case, the names of ethnics as: istroroman (Istroromanian), vlah (Romanian from Yugoslavia), meglenoroman (Romanian dialect from Meglen, from Macedonia), cici, ungur (Hungarian), neamt (German), hutul (Ukrainian) malorus (Russian), velicorus (Russian), izraelit (Jew), toth (Slovak), - and respectively the other ethnics of the European countries or from other Continents (for example: Albanian, Austrian, Belgian, French, Italian, Spanish, Cuban, Argentinean, Egyptian, Algerian, Syrian, Lebanese, Japanese, Chinese, Vietnamese, Korean, etc.) observing strictly the enumerated person's declaration;
-- whether the enumerated person don't want to declare the ethnicity, the enumerator will record explicitly "non-declared "in the corresponding space. The enumerator will then proceed for codifying the ethnicity according to the list of ethnicities (paragraph 122).
