Tartalmi leírás:
This study aims to demonstrate that the major totalitarian ideologies of the twentieth century—communism and national socialism—should not be viewed as entirely distinct political formations, but rather as systems sharing common roots, structural logic, and functional similarities. The central thesis of the study is that the Hungarian Arrow Cross movement not only self-identified as a “workers’ party,” but also exhibited numerous ideological overlaps with Marxist revolutionary thought. The study places particular emphasis on the political and rhetorical tools that enabled both ideologies to evolve into mass movements, including leader-centered authority, enemy construction, aspirations for total social transformation, and the escalation of political violence. The paper analyzes the role of the communist interpretation of “fascism,” focusing especially on the framework established by the 13th Plenum of the Comintern and Georgi Dimitrov’s popular front strategy. This interpretive model served not only to broaden the communists’ political maneuverability, but also to legitimize Soviet ideological expansion. Drawing on the canonical theories of totalitarianism the study investigates the theoretical and practical parallels between the two ideological systems. Within the context of Hungarian memory politics, the study highlights how the overlapping features of the arrow cross and the communist regimes were deliberately concealed, particularly during the post-1945 Sovietization of public discourse. The conclusion asserts that national socialism and communism are not merely historical adversaries, but mutually reinforcing, interrelated systems shaped by the same totalitarian logic. Both represent divergent yet interconnected manifestations of revolutionary radicalism within modern mass politics, and their comparative analysis is essential for understanding the ideological architecture of twentiethcentury authoritarian regimes.
