| Abstract | On Jun 16 1958, Imre Nagy, who had been the prime minister of Hungary during the ill-fated Revolution of 1956, was put to death by the Soviet-backed regime of Janos Kadar and buried in an unmarked grave. Thirty-three years later, in a spectacular reversal of fortune, the communist regime was delegitimitized by the funeral and reburial of Imre Nagy. Benziger discusses the funeral of Imre Nagy. |
