Explaining Transitional Justice in Hungary LAVINIA STAN There is a wide-spread belief in Hungary that the best revenge the new de- mocracy could take for the decades of communist rule it experienced at the hands of an unscrupulous and rapacious nomenklatura is to live well and to prosper quickly1. Economic redress for political injustice has been the Hungarian answer to de-communization and transitional justice, the two intertwined processes that have gained prominence throughout the post-communist Eastern European block. While its neighbors have struggled to deal with their dictatorial experience by re- examining their recent history, adopting lustration, bringing communist officials and secret agents to court, and opening the secret archives, Hungarians have em- braced the position that ”the best way to deal with the past is to do better now”2.

  • 15. Herndon's Hungarian Connection
    Herndon’s Hungarian Connection By Carol Bruce Ferenc Nagy was an active member of the Herndon community and, in fact, is responsible for Herndon having the regional presence that it enjoys today. The next time you’re driving through the middle of Herndon, take a look at the big white house at the corner of Elden and School Streets. Now the home of former Herndon Town Council member Harlon Reece and his wife Midge, it was—for just over 30 years—the residence of Ferenc Nagy, the first freely elected prime minister of Hungary. If you look closely you will see, just to the left of the front door, a bronze plaque that commemorates the former resident. The Herndon Historical Society, in cooperation with the Nagy Ferenc Foundation, presented the plaque to the Reeces in a ceremony that took place on April 26, 2008. Hungarian Ambassador Ferenc Somogyi and Nagy’s twin daughters, Zsófia and Zsuzsa, were among those in attendance. The son of peasant farmers, Nagy fought for peasant rights and democracy as the leader of Hungary’s Smallholders Party. He became a member of parliament in 1939. He was active in the Hungarian resistance during World War II and as a result was imprisoned by the Germans. After the war—and following his release from prison—the Smallholders won Hungary’s first free election and, in 1946, he became the country’s prime minister. Sixteen months later, while he was in Switzerland visiting one of his daughters at the University of Geneva, the Hungarian Communist Party staged a coup and seized control of the government.
