Migrations and border issues are now matters of great interest and
importance. This book examines the ways in which Hungary has
adapted to regional and global requirements while seeking to meet
its own needs. It adds to the literature a case study, the only one
of its kind, showing the evolution of a single set of borders over
a century in response to a wide range of internal and external
forces in a regional and global context. The narrative illuminates
the complexities, opportunities, and problems that face a small
state that finds itself often on the edge. Twentieth century
Europe's borders have repeatedly been dismantled, moved, and
refashioned. Hungary, even more than Germany, exemplifies border
decomposition, re-creation, destruction, "Sovietization," and
resurrection in a new Central Europe. Facing one way, then the
other, its past includes a conflicting self image as a bastion of
the west and as a bridge between east and west, as well as a long
and unwilling period as a defender of the east.
