Produktbeschreibung

Between three and four thousand civilians, primarily Serbian and Jewish, were murdered in the Novi Sad massacre of 1942. Hungarian soldiers and gendarmes carried out the crime in the city and surrounding areas, in territory Hungary occupied after the German attack on Yugoslavia. The perpetrators believed their acts to be a contribution to a new order in Europe, and as a means to ethnically cleanse the occupied lands. This book examines public contentions over the Novi Sad massacre from its inception in 1942 until the final trial in 2011. It shows how attitudes changed over time toward this war crime and the Holocaust through different political regimes and in Hungarian society.
