520    "In the turbulent years between 1944 and 1947, Hungarian 
       politics was marked by constant conflict between the two 
       most powerful parties in the governing coalition - the 
       Independent Smallholders Party and the Communist Party. 
       The history of this struggle reads like a series of moves 
       in a dramatic chess game, where no one could predict the 
       outcome. Mária Palasik examines this ill-fated conflict to
       explain how it was possible for the parties to work 
       together in a coalition government, while constantly at 
       odds with each other. Her reconstruction of the debates 
       over the introduction of the law to protect the republic 
       against conspiracy and the politics behind the Hungarian 
       Brotherhood show trial are grounded in her path-breaking 
       research in the archives of the state security agencies. 
       Through the case study of a single country, Chess Game for
       Democracy makes a major contribution to ongoing debates on
       the origins of the Cold War in Europe and the process of 
       Sovietization in Central and Eastern Europe, improving our
       understanding of European history post World War Two and 
       of the reasons for changing relations between the 
       superpowers."--Page 4 of cover.
