There is no comprehensive monograph dealing with the complex legal issues of compensation for the damage done to European Jews by the Nazi regime. The purpose of this thesis is to set forth and analyze the political and legislative means employed by the Hungarian Government to settle human rights claims brought by Hungarian Jewish citizens and Jewish organizations arising from Hungarian legislation discriminating against Jews, and from the nationalization and confiscation of property by the former communist regime in Hungary. The thesis also examines the German compensation system as it applies to Hungarian Jewish citizens.
