Double Exile
This is a social history of refugees escaping Hungary after the Bolshevik-type revolution of 1919, the ensuing counterrevolution, and the rise of anti-Semitism.

Ch. 8 (pp. 99-134), "The Origins of Jewish Emancipation in Hungary: The Role of Baron Joseph Eötvös", reviews the situation of Jews during the 18th-early 19th centuries in Habsburg Hungary and mentions discriminatory anti-Jewish measures, partly abolished in the beginning of the 19th century.

Summarizes the main ideas of Eötvös' essay "The Emancipation of the Jews" (1840), in which he refuted the moral, religious, and ethnic anti-Jewish allegations expressed by his opponents.
