Descrizione
During WWII racial science acquired renewed importance in the public imagination, as the nationalist and antisemitic press carried an increasing number of articles exploring the meaning of race and its importance for Hungarian society. This chapter examines how these descriptions informed racial sciences and antisemitic discourses in Hungary between 1940-1944.
