Similarly, he was concerned about the Soviet threat and the fate of Romanians in the Soviet Union, working closely with the Transnistrian anti-communist refugee Nichita Smochină. Such worries were notably expressed by Iorga in a series of Bucharest Radio broadcasts, "Sfaturi pe întuneric" ("Advice at Dark", soon after published in brochure format). He completed several new volumes, among which were "Dovezi despre conștiința originii românilor" ("Evidence on the Conscious Origin of the Romanians"), the polemical essay "Lupta mea contra prostiei" ("My Fight against Stupidity"), and the first two volumes of the long planned "Istoria românilor".
