Archives of Political History and the Trade Unions
The Archives of Political History and the Trade Unions is a private archive open to the public. Originally, it collected documentary material on the history of the workers’ movement and the political left, while today its scope extends to the entirety of Hungarian history during the modern era. Our archivists trace, collect and preserve private documents—all indispensable sources of contemporary history. The collection consists of particularly rich material on the interwar history of trade unions and the regime change in Hungary in 1989-1990.
The Institute of Political History also houses a public library. Its collection is devoted to topics in political and social theory, political history, political science, and modern history. While the majority of the collection is in Hungarian, there are numerous texts in other European languages as well: English, French, German and Russian, to name a few. The library also features a special collection of publications and electoral material from Hungarian political parties and organizations during the twentieth century, which is accessible for researchers.
