Mihai Taşcă is the secretary of the Commission for the Study of the Communist Dictatorship in Moldova.
On March 18, 2008, Mihai Taşcă submitted an application to the Ministry of Justice, seeking access to the files of the political parties; he intended to carry out a study about the election campaigns.
On September 30, 2008, the court ordered that the Ministry of Justice offers Taşcă the files he asked for.
In 2001, he founded Revista de drept privat; now he is the editor in chief of this scientific magazine.
He is also writing for daily Adevarul-Moldova, in a rubric called The Archives of Communism (once in two weeks, the other two materials per month being authored by historian Igor Caşu).
