The “Jewish Question” Meets the Transylvanian Question
The “Jewish Question” Meets the Transylvanian Question
This chapter addresses the events of the Holocaust. It argues that neither the specific content of anti-Semitism in Hungary and Romania, nor the events of the Holocaust can be divorced from the long-standing interstate dynamic between the two states, whose inconsistent policies vis-à-vis the Jews charted a course that was frequently out of phase with the ebb and surge of popular anti-Semitism. Tracing policy vis-à-vis the Jews in the region since the second half of the nineteenth century up to the present day, the analysis shows how such policy has long been in lockstep with territorial considerations, a consistent preoccupation of Hungarian and Romanian leaders.
