University of Minnesota, Ph.D., 1967 Political Science, international law and relations University Microfilms, Inc., Ann Arbor, Michigan THE IMAGE OF HUNGARY'S INTERNATIONAL POSITION IN AMERICAN FOREIGN POLICY- MAKING, 1937-1947 A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA BY Paul Rupprecht IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY October 1967 FOREWORD The idea of this dissertation grew out of direct experiences that had witnessed the exchange of one alien,-totalitarian rule in East-Central Europe for another, and that had generated an interest in the causes of the present situation in that part of the world. This interest raised the following questions: to what extent did Hungary's position play a role in American decisions; were opportunities offered by it, . which might have enhanced American objectives; were those potential advantages recognized, fostered, or utilized by the United States; were there attempts made to coordinate such available resources in the interest of peace; and what were the reasons for their failure or success. The feasibility of this study depended entirely on the availability of primary sources which provided background materials, revealed the motivations of the international actors, and unfolded the environmental influences. Recently and slowly -- very slowly -- access to official as well as private documents made a better insight into this subject possible. For the use of that material, the writer wishes to acknowledge his indebtedness to the following: The Archduke Otto von Habsburg, Tibor Eckhardt; General G. Hennyey, András Hory, the late Miklós.Kállay, Professor C.A. Macartney of Oxford, the late John F. Montgomery, Ferenc Nagy, Bernhard C. Noble and his staff of the Historic Office of the United States Department of State, the late Hubert C. Pell, Aladár Szegedy- Maszák, the late András Tamás, and Ferenc Wagner of the Library of Congress. The writer is particularly indebted to his academic advisors, Professors Charles H. McLaughlin and Harold C. Deutsch, who have guided and inspired him along his prolonged academic career. Special thanks are due to Professor McLaughlin for his enduring patience with the writer's deficiencies. LIST OF ABBREVIATIONS USED A. C. C. - Allied (Soviet) Control Commission. D. I. M.

The events, developments, clashes -- both military and political -- of that fateful decade constitute the subject of this study's investigation and analysis, focussed on East-Central Europe, particularly on Hungary. Since the final outcome of the struggles of 1 U.S. Department of State, Documents on German Foreign Policy (hereafter DGFP), Series D, Vol.. I: From Neurath to Ribbentrop, 1937-1938 (Washington, 1949), pp. -37 2U.S Department of State, Moscow's European Satellites (Washington, 1955)s p. 3. those ten years was determined to a very large extent by the power and involvement of the United States, it appears most appropriate to study how America perceived the international situation there, to what extent the American evaluations of it were accurate, how the final decisions were influenced by them, how the opportunities inherent in that situation for America were exploited and used to obtain desired results, who and what segments of the American decision-makers actually determined the policies shaping America's actions and inactions. Situated where the major powers' spheres of influence met, in both the German-Russian and in the American-Russian contexts, Hungary provided an excellent subject on which their intertwining relationships exerted overwhelming effects. As the last country in that area coming under German occupation and one that had a relatively long period of some self-government under her own political leadership after World War 11, Hungary was able to display multifarious attempts to save her own political life and thus show many of the political possibilities that a small country has in store, even facing severe forms of foreign interference by great powers adjacent to or present on her soil. The purpose of this paper then is to examine the East- Central European scene, and occasionally even cause, of great power ambitions and rivalries as they reflected themselves in a microcosmic form in the fate of Hungary and as these reflections were viewed by the United States during the era of World War II. Such a study is useful in that it reveals the possibilities of great power interests in Central- Eastern Europe in

  • Betwee N Trauma and Resilience a Transnational Reading of Women’S Life Writing About Wartime Rape in Germany and Bosnia and Herzegovina
    p Betwee n Trauma and Resilience A Transnational Reading of Women’s Life Writing about Wartime Rape in Germany and Bosnia and Herzegovina Agatha Schwartz and Tatjana Takševa ABSTRACT This article discusses the personal narratives (both published and personal interviews collected for the purpose of this study) of female survivors of wartime rape in post– World War II Germany and postconfl ict Bosnia and Herzegovina. The authors exam- ine how the women succeed in fi nding their words both for and beyond the rupture caused by the rapes through examples of life writing that challenge the dominant mas- culinist historical narrative of war created for ideological reasons and for the benefi t of the nation-state. Using theories of trauma and insights by feminist scholars and historians, the authors argue that a transnational reading of survivors’ accounts from these very diff erent geopolitical and historical contexts not only shows multiple points of mutual infl uence, but also how these narratives can make a signifi cant contribution, both locally and globally, when it comes to revisiting how wartime rape is memorial- ized, and how lessons learned from the two contexts can be relevant and applicable in other situations of armed confl ict as well. KEYWORDS: agency, memory, narratives of women survivors, trauma, wartime rape p In this article, through the narratives of women survivors we explore the eff ects and transgenerational consequences of rape during two twentieth-century episodes of armed confl ict: the end of World War II in Germany and the war in Bosnia and Herze- govina (former Yugoslavia), 1992–1995.

Prof. Dr. Hakan Kırımlı July, 2019 This thesis traces the steps of the Hungarian foreign policy from 1918 to 1946, and analyzes the impact of revisionism after the Treaty of Trianon on Hungarian foreign policy decisions and calculations after the First World War. Placing the Hungarian revisionism at its center, this thesis shows the different situation Hungary had as a South European power as an ally of Germany throughout the Second World War and subsequently under the Soviet occupation. It also argues that it was the interlinked Hungarian foreign policy steps well before 1941, the official Hungarian participation in the war, which made Hungary a belligerent country. Also, based largely on the American archival documents, this study places Hungary into a retrospective framework of the immediate post-war era in Europe, where the strong adherence to Nazi Germany and the Hungarian revisionism shaped the future of the country.
