This book, by an author uniquely qualified to describe and comment
on the Hungarian situation, is the first to look at Hungary from
the post-Kadar perspective. Hungary was the first Soviet satellite
state to be invaded by Soviet troops. Janos Kadar, its Party leader
for 32 years, took office in 1956 at the head of a government
determinedly submissive to Moscow. Hungarians thought he had sold
out. Yet over the next quarter century, Kadar quietly extended the
limits of Soviet tolerance by gradualist reforms. He did not rock
the Moscow boat, Paul Lendvai argues, but within the constraints of
loyalty to the Warsaw Pact and to Moscow's supremacy, he proceeded
to improve the quality of Hungarian life. Just how this happened is
the subject of this book.
