Description
Analyzes the causes of anti-semitism following the systemic change of 1989, emphasizing that the vacuum created after the collapse of the communist regime was partly filled by the revival of traditional Hungarian nationalism. He also reviews the evolution of anti-semitism under the impact of the 'national hysteria' that is deeply rooted in the history of the region
