There are many aspects of the history of Transcarpathia between 1938 and 1944 that are still under-researched, including the history of the far-right movements after the First Vienna Award. With the present study, I undertook to examine the activities of the Arrow Cross Party in a local scene in Ung County, using documents held in the Berehovo branch of the State Archives of Transcarpathian Oblast. The Arrow Cross movement practically arrived in the county with the territorial revision, and Uzhhorod was the first settlement where the first local branch of the party was established, during the period of military administration. The situation of the movement was largely determined by the restrictive measures taken by the local authorities until the German occupation of Hungary. The political changes at the national level and the control of the authorities brought the party almost to the brink of cessation in the county by 1943. After the German occupation, however, the movement was revived and became active in Ung County. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
