This course examines the history of Hungary from 1945 to 2010, covering the end of the Second World War and the Communist takeover, the Communist regime, system change and the first 20 years of Hungarian democracy after 1989. During the course students will study the key events and periods of Hungarian history after 1945: the Communist take-over, the Stalinist period, the 1956 revolution, János Kádár’s ‘goulash Communism’, the 1989 roundtable talks, the regime’s collapse, and the shift (and challenges) to a democratic system of governance.
