Description
Focuses on Jewish patterns of mortality as recorded in some published documents in the records of the Budapest (Conservative) community. Discusses the relative 'quasi-normality' of Jewish mortality patterns up to 1944 and their distortion determined by trends of post-Shoah emigration and the pressure of the Communist party's assimilation
