Description
Provides an overview of the treatment of the Jewish question and its related issues of anti-Semitism and the Holocaust during the postward period in Hungary. The study reveals that among the xenophobic-nationalist elements, quite a few are engaged in a campaign to rehabilitate the Horthy era by denigrating and/or distorting the Holocaust.
