Through the lens of invisibility, it explores the reasons and extent to which far-right women, including several Second World War perpetrators, were rendered invisible by their fellow Arrow Cross Party members in the 1930s and during the war (1939-1945). Furthermore, it examines how the Hungarian peoples tribunals responsible for purging war criminals (1945-1949) further contributed to their invisibility. The book argues that the invisibility of these women allowed their legacy to persist throughout the years of state socialism, and it has actively played a role in the recent resurgence of far-right politics in Hungary. Consequently, this book examines the interconnectedness of invisibility with twenty-first century memory politics and the ongoing presence of far-right movements.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIntroduction:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Second World War witnessed the involvement of women in various roles, including as perpetrators of war crimes. While the narratives surrounding female perpetrators have often been marginalized or overlooked, this book aims to shed light on their experiences and contributions to the war effort. By examining the concept of invisibility, the book seeks to understand why and how these women were made invisible by their fellow Arrow Cross Party members in the 1930s and during the war, as well as by the Hungarian peoples tribunals responsible for purging war criminals.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Actions, Backgrounds, Connections, and Trials of Hungarian Female Perpetrators:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe book delves into the actions, backgrounds, connections, and trials of Hungarian female perpetrators during the Second World War.

It explores how the legacy of these women has been erased or ignored by mainstream historiography and how it has been resurrected by far-right groups and politicians in Hungary. The book also examines how the invisibility of these women has impacted their descendants and the broader society.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMemory Politics and the Resurgence of Far-Right Movements:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe book further examines the interconnectedness of invisibility with twenty-first century memory politics and the present-day resurgence of far-right movements. It explores how memory plays a crucial role in shaping societal attitudes and beliefs, and how the invisibility of Hungarian female perpetrators has been used to justify and normalize far-right ideologies. The book also examines the challenges faced by those who seek to commemorate and acknowledge the legacy of these women and the importance of challenging the narratives of invisibility.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eConclusion:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn conclusion, this book provides a comprehensive analysis of the actions, backgrounds, connections, and trials of Hungarian female perpetrators during the Second World War.
