  • Jewish Survival in Budapest, March 1944 – February 1945
    DECISIONS AMID CHAOS: JEWISH SURVIVAL IN BUDAPEST, MARCH 1944 – FEBRUARY 1945 Allison Somogyi A thesis submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in the Department of History. Chapel Hill 2014 Approved by: Christopher Browning Chad Bryant Konrad Jarausch © 2014 Allison Somogyi ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Allison Somogyi: Decisions amid Chaos: Jewish Survival in Budapest, March 1944 – February 1945 (Under the direction of Chad Bryant) “The Jews of Budapest are completely apathetic and do virtually nothing to save themselves,” Raoul Wallenberg stated bluntly in a dispatch written in July 1944. This simply was not the case. In fact, Jewish survival in World War II Budapest is a story of agency. A combination of knowledge, flexibility, and leverage, facilitated by the chaotic violence that characterized Budapest under Nazi occupation, helped to create an atmosphere in which survival tactics were common and widespread. This unique opportunity for agency helps to explain why approximately 58 percent of Budapest’s 200,000 Jews survived the war while the total survival rate for Hungarian Jews was only 26 percent. Although unique, the experience of Jews within Budapest’s city limits is not atypical and suggests that, when fortuitous circumstances provided opportunities for resistance, European Jews made informed decisions and employed everyday survival tactics that often made the difference between life and death. iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to thank everybody who helped me and supported me while writing and researching this thesis. First and foremost I must acknowledge the immense support, guidance, advice, and feedback given to me by my advisor, Dr.

  • Heart of Stone, Heart of Flesh – a Play in Hebrew by Eli Yossef
    Heart of stone, Heart of flesh By Eli Yossef First Edition, 2009 All rights reserved. Copyright Eli Yossef Title: Heart of Stone, Heart of Flesh Edited by: Casa Argentina en Israel Tierra Santa and International Raoul Wallenberg Foundation. Heart of stone, heart of flesh Casa Argentina en Israel – Tierra Santa and the International Raoul Wallenberg Foundation are proud to present in the form of an E-Book the play "Heart of stone, heart of flesh", written by the playwright and educator, Mr. Eli Yossef. Eli Yossef has a vast experience in the field of high-school education, with a special focus on Judaism and humanism. "Heart of stone, heart of flesh" recreates the awe-inspiring story of Raoul Wallenberg, the Swedish diplomat who saved scores of Hungarian Jews from the Nazi extermination. Wallenberg, a figure of Biblical proportions ended-up abducted by the Soviet forces that liberated Budapest, never to be seen again. Yossef's moving play was specially created as an educational tool, played by young actors for the sake of a young audience. So far, this play performed three times in the Jerusalem Theatre and nine times in France (in its French version). Among the attendees were Guy von Dardel (the recently deceased brother of Raoul Wallenberg), other members of the Wallenberg family, as well as the Swedish diplomat and personal Wallenberg's aid, Mr. Per Anger. Eli Yossef has also written two other plays: "Menachem" (about the life of the former Israeli Prime Minister, Menachem Begin) and "The Act", a story about the "two Eliahu's" which made him recipient of the prestigious "Yair" award.

  • Raoul Wallenberg BASIC INFORMATION
    Student presentation on Rightrous Among the Nations Raoul Wallenberg BASIC INFORMATION • Raoul Gustaf Wallenberg was born on 4th August 1912 and died probably on 17th July 1947. • He was Swedish architect, businessman, diplomat and humanitarian. • He is widely celebrated for his successful efforts to rescue between tens of thousands and one hundred thousand Jews in Nazi-occupied Hungary during the Holocaust from Hungarian Fascists and the Nazis during the later stages of World War II. BASIC INFORMATION • While serving as Sweden's special envoy in Budapest between July and December 1944, Wallenberg issued protective passports and sheltered Jews in buildings designated as Swedish territory saving tens of thousands of lives. • He was detained by Soviet authorities on suspicion of espionage and imprisoned in the prison Lubyanka in Moscow, where he reportedly died. BACKROUND • He was a member of a prominent family of bankers and industrialists. • His father died of cancer three months before he was born, and his maternal grandfather died three months after his birth. His mother and grandmother, both suddenly widows, raised him together. • After high school and eight months in the Swedish military, his paternal grandfather sent him to study in Paris, where he spent one year. In 1931, he enrolled in the University of Michigan in the United States to study architecture. • He visited Hungary on business in the early 1940s, during World War II and he became increasingly disturbed by the plans of Nazi leader Adolf Hitler to kill all the Jews of Europe. • In 1944, the World Jewish Congress and the American War Refugee Board asked Wallenberg to help and he agreed to go to Hungary to save the remaining Jews there.

  • Western Sahara-Per Anger Prize-Press Release-2009-Eng
    Jailed defender of human rights awarded the Per Anger Prize 2009 This year, the prize in memory of Per Anger is being awarded to the human rights activist Brahim Dahane, defender of human rights in Western Sahara. He was nominated by the Swedish section of the International Commission of Jurists (ICJ). Swedish Culture Minister Lena Adelsohn Liljeroth will be awarding the SEK 150,000 (EUR 14,500) prizemoney and the silver trophy, which weighs the same as a human heart, at a ceremony in Stockholm on 16 November. Brahim Dahane is currently incarcerated. The jury’s reason for its choice: In recognition of having demonstrated unwavering personal courage, employed peaceful means and risked his life in the struggle for human rights during the conflict between Morocco and the Polisario over Western Sahara. For the whole of his adult life, Brahim Dahane (born 1965) has, by peaceful means, continued to assert the Sahrawis’ right to an independent Western Sahara and been active in the fight for human rights, not least by founding the human rights organisation ASVDH (Asociación Saharui de Victimas de Violaciones Graves de los Derechos Humanos Cometidas por el Estado Marroqui). As a result of his dedication, Brahim Dahane has spent long periods in prison. He has been subjected to torture. At the time of writing, Mr Dahane has once again had his liberty taken away. He and other human rights activists were arrested by the Moroccan authorities on 8 October 2009 on their return to Casablanca, following a visit to the Sahrawi refugee camps in Tindouf (Algeria). “The jury chose Brahim Dahane as the prizewinner back in early September, due to his merits as a defender of human rights, without any thought that he could be re-arrested.

(unpaged) SUMMARY Tibor Baranski, honored as a Righteous Among the Nations by Yad Vashem, was born June 11, 1922 in Budapest, Hungary. He was educated in Hungarian Gymnasia and aware of rising antisemitism by 1938. He studied for the priesthood in Vesprem in 1940 and in Kassa (Kosice) in 1943. He learned of Nazi extermination plans through church channels. He returned to Budapest October 20, 1944 as the Russian army drew near. He provides a very detailed and extensive description of several rescues of Jews, from October to December, 1944, at the request of Angelo Rotta, the papal nuncio, who acted as a representative of the Vatican under orders of Pope Pius XII. He rescued Jews from a transit camp to safe houses in Budapest. He worked with representatives from neutral nations and the Red Cross to stop deportations from Hegyeshalom, using protective letters (Schutzpasse), and safe houses to shelter almost 6000 Jews. He was almost executed several times.Provides details of efforts to hide Jews by christian groups and individuals. He credits Elizabeth Kemeny, Raoul Wallenberg, Prince Esterhazy, Father Hummel and a number of priests and nuns who helped in the rescue. He talks about his encounter with Wallenberg and why he was arrested by the Russians. Tibor was arrested by the Russians December 30, 1944 and sent on a deathmarch from Budapest to Szekszarv.

  • Raoul Wallenberg's Biography by Jan Larsson
    Raoul Wallenberg's biography By Jan Larsson Foreword By now, people in most parts of the world have heard about Raoul Wallenberg's extraordinary rescue action on behalf of the Hungarian Jews during World War II. Recent documentaries about him, produced in a number of countries, have contributed to public awareness of his role. But the 1985 American TV miniseries "Wallenberg," which has been seen by many millions of people all over the globe, has been particularly important in this regard. During my lecture tours both in Sweden and abroad as part of the international effort to secure Raoul's release from the Soviet Union, I have often been asked how it was possible to save such a large number of people-about 100,000-from the Nazi executions. The most important answer: Raoul Wallenberg was the right man in the right place, given the situation then prevailing. Although he was not the heroic type in the ordinary sense, he was a fearless, skilled negotiator and organizer. He was, moreover, a good actor, a talent that served him well during his clashes with the Nazis. He could also show two different personalities. The first was the calm, humorous, intellectual, warm person that we co- workers could see. The second was Raoul Wallenberg in confrontation with the Nazis: he was transformed into an aggressive person who would shout at them or threaten them on one occasion, flatter or bribe them on another, as the circumstances required. They were impressed by him and usually gave in to his demands. One reason, of course, was his Swedish diplomatic status, which the Germans did not dare to violate.
