Things Worth Preserving
Family, liberty, love, and country are things worth preserving. They are the themes of this epic tale of the 1956 Hungarian Revolution, one of the most dramatic episodes of the Cold War. By 1956, the people of Hungary are fed up with living under Communist rule. Their anger erupts in a storm of revolution felt across the world. Among the millions swept up in the storm are...Pal Varga, a soap factory worker who warned his family in vain about it...Rudolf Varga and Julia Kun, young lovers whose dreams of marriage are threatened by the revolution..Boris and Theresa Varga, a Communist married couple more loyal to their country than to their political party...Kathryn Nerdin, an American teenager seeking a new love in face of the death of her boyfriend. From the embattled streets of Budapest, Hungary, to the peaceful neighborhoods of Provo, Utah, Things Worth Saving presents a tale in the tradition of Dr. Zhivago and A Farewell to Arms.

Struggling for Ethnic Identity
Since the demise of the Communist regime in Hungary, the country's Gypsy or Roma population has benefited from the suspension of decades of assimilationist, and at times overtly racist, government policy and from an increased tolerance for the expression of Roma identity. However, Romas continue to suffer serious discrimination, and at times violence, at the hands of fellow citizens, and many public officials appear to exhibit the same behavior.
Refugees in Hungary
During World War II thousands of Polish citizens found refuge in Hungary, among them ca. 3,000-5,000 Polish Jews. All of the Hungarian anti-Jewish laws applied to them as well. Pp. 152-169 deal with the situation of the Jewish refugees before and after the German occupation in March 1944. Contends that Hungary's leniency in dealing with the "Jewish question" was a major source of conflict between Germany and Hungary.

The Past in Present Times
"The Past in Present Times exposes the violations of human rights, war crimes, and genocide during the rise of the former Yugoslavia during World War I, prior to and directly after World War II, the Yugoslav War, and the recent fall of the federation. In addition to the legal findings by the Nuremberg and Hague Tribunals, including the most recent trials, this legal-historical analysis reviews details of undisputed facts and recorded dialogues, which unveils surprising background information. As Dr. Lajco Klajn leads the reader along an historical line of events, he clarifies the factors and circumstances that led to genocide, war crimes, and crimes against humanity while explaining the social, legal, historical, and moral consequences. Without forcing judgment about the past, Dr. Klajn exposes the roots of these conflicts and explains why if the roots are not eradicated, the conflicts may resurface in the future as a manifestation of even more monstrous wars and suffering as the past becomes the present once again."--BOOK JACKET.
