Descrizione Crucibles of Political Loyalty
Why do mass political loyalties persist even amid prolonged social and economic upheaval? Drawing on archival materials and an original election database, this book explores this question by examining Hungary's path from pre- to post-communism. Despite the many depredations of communism, the Churches transmitted loyalties to right-wing parties. Harassed by communist party cadres, local clergymen employed ingenious tactics to ensure the survival of local church institutions. These institutions insulated their adherents from pressures to assimilate into the surrounding socialist milieu, leading to political continuity between pre- and post-communism.
