MADOSZ
The Hungarian People's Union ( hu, Magyar Népi Szövetség, MNSZ; ro, Uniunea Populară Maghiară, UPM) was a left-wing political party active in Romania between 1934 and 1953 that claimed to represent the Hungarian community. Until 1944, it was called the Union of Hungarian Workers of Romania ( hu, Magyar Dolgozók Országos Szövetsége or ro, Uniunea Oamenilor Muncii Maghiari din România, generally known under its Hungarian-language acronym MADOSZ). Establishment In September 1932, a faction of the Magyar Party created a dissident movement around the weekly Cluj publication ''Falvak Népe'' ("Lumea satelor" or "The World of the Villages"). In June 1933, this movement coalesced into the Magyar Opposition (''Opoziţia Maghiară''), whose leadership included members of the Romanian Communist Party (PCR). The Opposition's local committees and the initiative committees of the Hungarian populace, organised around the Cluj magazine ''Népakarat'' ("Voinţa poporului" or "The Will ...

Magyar Party (Romania)
The Magyar Party ( hu, Országos Magyar Párt; ro, Partidul Maghiar, PM, officially ) was a political party in post-World War I Romania. The party had a heterogeneous structure, including bourgeois and landowners, peasants, workers, intellectuals and city-dwellers. It had powerful organisations in counties with a Hungarian majority, among whom it had a substantial electoral influence. The party wished to obtain complete autonomy for the areas inhabited by a majority of Hungarians and Székelys; it foresaw Hungarians handling administration and all social-cultural problems, but asked that Hungarian-language confessional schools be funded by the Romanian state at all levels. Its tactical line underwent a certain oscillation. In the years right after 1918, several Magyar political formations appeared, some calling for integration into the just-unified Romanian state, others not recognising the new realities settled through the Alba Iulia Resolution. After the June 1920 signing of th ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Romanian Communist Party
The Romanian Communist Party ( ro, Partidul Comunist Român, , PCR) was a communist party in Romania. The successor to the pro-Bolshevik wing of the Socialist Party of Romania, it gave ideological endorsement to a communist revolution that would replace the social system of the Kingdom of Romania. After being outlawed in 1924, the PCR remained a minor and illegal grouping for much of the interwar period and submitted to direct Comintern control. During the 1920s and the 1930s, most of its activists were imprisoned or took refuge in the Soviet Union, which led to the creation of competing factions that at times came in open conflict. That did not prevent the party from participating in the political life of the country through various front organizations, most notably the Peasant Workers' Bloc. During the mid 1930s, as a result of the purges against the Iron Guard, the party was on the road to achieving power, but this was crushed by the dictatorship of king Carol II. In the p ...
