כותר The foundation and activities of the Hungarian Jewish Council, March 20-July 7, 1944.
מתוך Yad Vashem Studies 30 (2002) 93-123
תקציר/הערה The first Central Council of Hungarian Jews (Zsidó Tanács), consisting of eight members, was established following an order issued on 20 March 1944 by Eichmann's Kommando in Budapest. At this stage, the Hungarian authorities accepted the formation of this Council with a complete lack of interest. In late April-early May the Hungarians took measures to reorganize the Council, and the Provisional Executive Committee of the Association of Hungarian Jews was formed. The foundation of Jewish councils in provincial towns (e.g. Kecskemét, Szeged) began after 6 April
the initiative was taken by the local administrations, and in some places by the Central Jewish Council. The Central Council members were aware of the fate of European Jews under the Nazis
they had contacts with provincial councils and knew what was going on there (ghettoization, deportations, etc.). Nevertheless, they cooperated with the authorities and did not alert the Hungarian Jews, mainly because they believed that the war was over. Concludes that the Hungarian Jewish Council should not be condemned more than others
such councils throughout Europe could not do much for their brethren. (From the Bibliography of the Vidal Sassoon International Center for the Study of Antisemitism - The Hebrew University of Jerusalem)
