  • Mayoral Collaboration under Nazi Occupation in Belgium, the Netherlands, and France, 1938–46Nico Wouters

    Open AccessIstvan DeakARTICLEHolocaust and Genocide Studies2019

    This book is about the many hundreds of men, whether elected or appointed, who stood between the German occupiers and civilian society in the Low Countries and in the two neighboring French départements, Nord and Pas-de-Calais. The Germans had separated the latter from the rest of France under the German military commander of occupied Belgium. Everywhere mayors were seen traditionally as the mediators between local citizenries and the politicians…

  • The Habsburg Empire

    Istvan DeakCHAPTERAfter Empire : Multiethnic…2018

    The cosmopolitan Habsburg aristocracy and the Catholic high clergy hastened to proclaim their loyalty to the new nation states, and Emperor-King Charles was abandoned even by his splendidly caparisoned Arcieren, Trabanten, and Hungarian noble body guards, for whom this would have been the first genuine opportunity in history to defend their ruler. The differences between Hungary's prewar regime and Habsburg Admiral Miklós Horthy's new regime were…

    Open AccessIstvan DeakCHAPTERWiley Blackwell Encyclopedia of…2015

    Lajos (Louis) Kossuth, who was governor‐president of Hungary for four months in 1849, came from an old but poor noble family in what was then northern Hungary and is now part of Slovakia. He succeeded through sheer effort to become first a professional journalist and then a leading reformist politician in the Austrian‐dominated kingdom of Hungary. In 1848–49, he acted as leader of the Hungarians' struggle for an independent, nationalist liberal, …

  • Political Justice in Austria and Hungary after World War II

    Open AccessIstvan DeakCHAPTERRetribution and Reparation in the…2006

    Austria was Nazi Germany's first victim and Hungary its last; paradoxically, the two countries were also Germany's final allies. To put it more precisely, in March 1938 the Austrian republic was the first European sovereign state to be occupied and annexed by Nazi Germany, and six years later, in March 1944, Hungary was the last European sovereign state to be occupied and subdued by the German army. In recognition of Austria's loss of independenc…

  • The Versailles System and Central Europe

    Istvan DeakARTICLEThe English Historical Review2006

    The Versailles System and Central Europe, by Magda Ádám (Aldershot: Ashgate, 2004; pp. xx + 383. £59.50). Few historians other than Ádám can look back to a similarly long and fruitful career as specialists of the Paris peace treaties, the creation of the Little Entente, and the troubles as well as the collapse of the collective security system. Most probably none possesses greater familiarity with the major European languages as well as with the …

  • The Politics of Retribution in Europe: World War II and Its Aftermath

    Istvan Deak, Jan T Gross et al.BOOKPolitics of Retribution in Europe2000Cited by: 22

    The presentation of Europe's immediate historical past has quite dramatically changed. Conventional depictions of occupation and collaboration in World War II, of wartime resistance and post-war renewal, provided the familiar backdrop against which the chronicle of post-war Europe has mostly been told. Within these often ritualistic presentations, it was possible to conceal the fact that not only were the majority of people in Hitler's Europe not…

    Open AccessIstvan DeakARTICLECentral European History1997Cited by: 3References: 7

    Holocaust literature is one of the richest devoted to a single event; it is also one of the newest. In the 1950s and '60s one could count on one's fingers the monographs that dealt with the destruction of the Jews. Then came a surge of interest in the 1970s, perhaps due to the arrival on the scene of a European generation innocent of this heinous crime. Since then, the production of books, articles, and films on the subject has continued unabated…
