The London-Budapest Game
'The London-Budapest Game' is the true sequel to 'Sword of the Turul, ' with a unique glimpse into the British underground in World War II Hungary - and its aftermath. From 1991 to 2001, a Swedish-Russian joint Commission investigating the fate of Swedish diplomat Raoul Wallenberg discovered that 3 Hungarian numbered prisoners secretly held in Vladimir prison, Soviet Union had been connected to his case. One was Karoly Schandl, a young lawyer in Budapest who lived near the Swedish Embassy. This is the continuation of his shocking true story, supported by historical documents and excerpts from his private writings. Karoly's anti- Nazi resistance group was led by his childhood friend, Gabor Haraszty, a.k.a. British agent ALBERT. The group had links to MI9, ISLD (MI6), SOE, Colonel Howie, the Dutch and Polish Underground, the Tito partisans, and a group of famous Jewish parachutists from Palestine, with whom they had planned to collaborate in Hungary. It was a dangerous game, and only a few would survive ..
Sword of the Turul
* Due to its historical merit, this book is mentioned on the site of the International Raoul Wallenberg Foundation.* From the British led anti-Nazi resistance in Hungary to the Soviet prisons of Lubyanka, Lefortovo, and Vladimir, then to Whitehall and North America - this book is based on a true story, now told for the first time. What did a group led by British intelligence, a church in a cave, and a missing Swedish diplomat all have in common in World War II Hungary -- and why did most of the players in this drama disappear? Shocking facts are uncovered about war-torn Budapest, British intelligence, and SMERSH -- and how they were all connected. A 60 year old deception is exposed *The scanned prison record at the beginning of the book, which proves that Karoly Schandl was imprisoned by the Soviet Union from Dec 1944 until 1956, is authentic, as are the revealing pages from Karoly's and Terezia's memoirs.* This book is on Amazon worldwide, Forbes Book Club, Ecampus, and is listed on Ingram.

Through Hitler's Back Door
This is a story about the courage of individuals in the face of overwhelming odds during SOE mission in Nazi-allied countries. Although nearly all SOE personnel were either killed or captured, the impact of their operations served as a persistent irritant, undermining Germany's strategic and political assumptions about the loyalty of her allies.
The Last Days of Budapest
Budapest, autumn 1943. Four years into the war, Hungary is allied with Nazi Germany and the Hungarian capital is the Casablanca of central Europe. The city swirls with intrigue and betrayal, home to spies and agents of every kind. But Budapest remains at peace, an oasis in the midst of war where Allied POWs, and Polish and Jewish refugees find sanctuary. The riverside cafes are crowded and the city's famed cultural life still thrives. All that comes to an end in March 1944 when the Nazis invade. By the summer, Allied bombers are pounding its grand boulevards and historic squares. Budapest's surviving Jewish population has been forcibly relocated to cramped, overcrowded Yellow Star houses.

De laatste dagen van Boedapest
In 1945 werd Boedapest, ooit een van de culturele hoofdsteden van het Oostenrijks-Hongaarse rijk, het toneel van de laatste grote, wrede belegering tijdens de Tweede Wereldoorlog - nu op briljante wijze tot leven gebracht in deze nieuwe geschiedenis.
Politicians' Expressions of Anger and Leadership Evaluations
This book explores the impact of politicians' expressions of anger on viewers. Electoral candidates may alter their emotional behaviour strategically during election campaigns as a means of gaining voters' support. Hence, this study investigates empirically how expressions of anger affect leadership evaluations. An experiment was conducted to establish the impact of politicians' expressions of emotions on viewers. This study focuses on politicians as a social group, as well as three politicians in particular: Chancellor Angela Merkel; Gregor Gysi, the former parliamentary leader of the Left; and Sigmar Gabriel, the former party leader of the Social Democrats. These three case studies are well-suited to testing the effects of expressions of emotion by political leaders with varying positions in the political system. Lena Masch is a lecturer at the Institute of Social Sciences at the Heinrich-Heine-Universitat in Dusseldorf.
Marxism and the Critique of Value
Marxism and the Critique of Value aims to complete the critique of the value-form that was initiated by Marx. While Marx's "esoteric" critique of value has been rediscovered from time to time by post-Marxists who know they've found something interesting but don't quite know which end is the handle, Anglophone Marxism has tended to bury this esoteric critique beneath a more redistributionist understanding of Marx. The essays in this volume attempt to think the critique of value through to the end, and to draw out its implications for the current economic crisis; for violence, Islamism, gender relations, masculinity, and the concept of class; for revolutionary practice and agency; for the role of the state and the future of the commons; for the concepts that come down to us from Enlightenment thought: indeed, for the manifold phenomena that characterize contemporary society under a capitalism in crisis.
