DESCRIPTION

Three historical patterns, three regions have developed in Europe. Comparing the different development of the regions, this course reveals the distinctiveness of Central European history from both Eastern and Western patterns. By the outbreak of the First World War and the collapse of the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy, East-Central-Europe became the region of a number of small states. Have they been destined to become the satellites of the Great Powers? How did the region become the hotbed of such ideologies and dictatorships as fascism and bolshevism? What options were open to the nations of the region and especially to Hungarian society? What were the survival strategies of the everyday citizens facing the oppressive regimes and the conflicts of the century? These and other issues are highlighted through the examination of the main conflicts of the 20th century.
