Andrea Pető
The Women of the Arrow Cross Party
“For several decades, gender studies have sought to lift the invisibility of women,
forgotten or ignored by the dominant discourses despite being major actors in his-
tory. Rare are the studies that show how this invisibility has, on the contrary, been
able to hide the contribution of some women to systems of domination, in this
case Hungarian fascism. Andrea Pető’s study is particularly stimulating in remov-
ing unexpected taboos.”
—Henry Rousso, Centre national de la recherche scientifique (Paris)
“Isn’t it amazing that even two decades into the 21st century we still need proof
for the importance of gender history in order to explain past and present phenom-
ena and their entanglement? The present book by the internationally renowned
scholar Andrea Pető is one of these proofs and a brilliant one: by reconstructing
the hidden story of female contribution to Hungarian fascism, she is able not only
to dissect the specific functions of gendered memory politics, but also to shed an
illuminating light on contemporary developments.”
—Stefanie Schüler-Springorum, Director of the Center
for Research on Antisemitism (Berlin)
“Feminists often point out the invisibility of women in historical accounts. But
rarely do they do what Andrea Pető does: bringing a gender lens to the Hungarian
far right, she brilliantly exposes the long-term effects of the erasure of the Arrow
Cross women’s complicity from history, judgement, responsibility and memory.
Meticulously researched and sharply analyzed, this book is essential reading for
anyone interested in the current rise of the far right.”
—Marianne Hirsch, Columbia University (New York)

CHAPTER 1
Introduction
“The Arrow Cross Party therefore differs from other parties as it has a
spirit.”
Woman in the movement. A Nép, December 17, 1942. 4.
“We will veer Hungarian women back to the sacred duty of
motherhood. The Hungarian nation emanates from the Hungarian
mother. The mother is the first teacher of the nation, and she sows the
seeds of Hungarian thought and spirit when together with a prayer she
lets the Hungarist thought, the Arrow Cross idea pour into the child’s
soul. Don’t let women wither at workplaces, don’t let them become
victims of those who believe that money can buy everything, including
morality.”

to get their hands on Jewish property. The post-war authorities were well
acquainted with the concierges; those that did not flee were the first to be
reported by residents. In 1950, agricultural laborers were also strongly
over-represented: 14 percent of indicted were from this group while
among the general population their share was six percent. Thus, contrary
to popular belief, not only members of the Volksbund were put on trial but
also large numbers of Hungarian peasants.
Women’s participation in conservative-nationalist and especially in far-
right movements brings up several theoretical questions (Blee 1991,
Passmore 1999). So far approaches to this area of research failed to
acknowledge the agency of these women, i.e. they questioned whether
women autonomously decided to participate in right-wing political move-
ments. This argument lessens the critical potential these women’s organi-
zations exhibited against patriarchy, which I wish to emphasize in this
volume, without forgetting their ideological-political involvement with
racism and the Holocaust. Other analytical questions to be examined are
whether women members of far-right parties necessarily emerged from
among the losers of social-economic processes, and whether they were
mentally unstable as the post–Second World War explanations held.
As opposed to the aforementioned explanatory frameworks which saw
far-right women as victims, losers or lunatics, I propose an alternative the-
oretical framework which takes the agency of these women in consider-
ation when trying to explain what kinds of women joined far-right
movements and why. I use the concept of agency according to Saba
Mahmood, for whom agency is “a capacity for action that historically spe-
cific relations of subordination enable and create” (Mahmood 2006: 34).
Far-right women really questioned social norms but primarily by reshap-
ing the relationship of women and violence through their participation in
violent actions.
Following Griffin, this book looks at Hungarian far-right movements,
primarily the Arrow Cross Party, as “revolutionary nationalist” forma-
tions, and analyzes them in comparison with other European far-right
movements (Griffin 1991). Furthermore, it looks at these movements
from within, focusing on their inner structure and the way they self-
narrated. If these movements had “only” reached women as mothers, then
the Arrow Cross Party, the first Hungarian anti-modernist populist party,
could not have mobilized women in such high numbers.
1 INTRODUCTION 7
The first period of fascism research (1960s) renounced the idea that
fascism had been a form of pathological nihilistic irrationalism that had a
singular aim: totalitarian oppression. The second period of research (from
the early 1990s, after the fall of communist regimes) shifted the focus
from economic and psychological factors to political ones. This research
relied on national myths and imagined communities as interpretative
frameworks for explaining the popularity of the far right. Currently the
third period of research aims at tracing the inner logic of fascism to account
for its resurging appeal using the explanatory principle of culture. This
principle posits that fascism is a unique cultural expression of the idea of
“true community,” and as such it is the symbolic representation of anti-
modern society. Research on women’s relationship with fascism also
started in the third period. Previously such research was not possible partly
because of certain generic problems in women’s historiography, such as
that it ignored “evil women,” and partly because of earlier fascism
research’s political choice to focus on political history exclusively.
The quickly developing field of perpetrator research (Täterforschung)
also finds it difficult to integrate women perpetrators as a legitimate topic
of research. Holocaust-related perpetrator research started in the second
half of the 1990s, and for a long time solely focused on men. Following
the logics of the Nazi state’s activities,13 research represented perpetrators
either as psychopaths or as banal bureaucrats.14 Primarily as a result of the
debate surrounding Goldhagen’s book (1996), which had argued for
nuanced scientific inquiry devoid of stereotypes, research has finally turned
towards the issue of ideological commitment, and, therefore, towards the
intellectual elites that provided the ideological background of the
Holocaust (Pendas 2006: 294). Perpetrator research gained further rele-
vance when the children of famous and well-known Nazis had published
their books one after another.15 But the real step in the right direction was
when research began on how someone from the “everyday” level of com-
mon people becomes a perpetrator, and how the memory of perpetrators
evolves on the individual level.
Throughout its journey, perpetrator research had to dismantle several
taboos including easy dichotomy of victim and perpetrator. The current
position of this research emphasizes that simplifying typologies should be
left behind, instead focusing on various subgroups whose common fea-
tures may provide the grounds for a taxonomy, which will then facilitate a
multi-faceted understanding. However, the typology of women perpetra-
tors not only identifies the various types but also outlines the social spaces
1 INTRODUCTION 9
where women could play a role (Pető 2014). Most research projects exam-
ine the social and psychological (though the latter is progressively consid-
ered analytically inappropriate) condition of perpetrators, and set up
typologies of perpetrators, without taking gender into consideration.
None of these typologies mention women perpetrators. Conjured typolo-
gies thus far that I will shortly introduce were based on intentions and
behavioral explanations, thus they can potentially offer easy explanations,
which could prepare the grounds for forgiveness and the avoidance of
punishment. Other explanations simply name self-interest as the cause,
which could be manifested in carrier aspirations, ambitions or the hope of
material wealth. But these feelings should always be interpreted within
their specific social context.
Perpetrator research in Hungary as well in other former communist
countries faces multiple obstacles. Firstly, the historical category of perpe-
trator is an ambivalent one because it is still debated whether the Horthy
and the Arrow Cross regimes represent a historical continuity.16 Secondly,
the extensive scholarship on Germany contributes to making research on
collaborating states and parties invisible. Thirdly, though many far-right
politicians’ diaries and memoires got published, research on the far right is
still dominated by the political history angle.17 Also, women were so far
omitted from research, as it was aimed at the main actors, who were exclu-
sively men. Lastly, after 1990 the new political system was based on anti-
communism, including major and very legitimate criticism of the people’s
tribunals. However, the fact that the legal framework was flawed should
not bring into question that the war crimes were committed.
In the 1960s, during the first period of fascism research, women’s sto-
ries were not examined and hence the history of “evil women” sunk into
oblivion, only to be later discovered by German historiography, which
then made a mark on other countries’ research too (Pető 2009). At first,
this research was oriented towards notable women and the wives of famous
men, i.e. concentration camp guards, actors, journalists, and the wives of
various politicians, at the same time it made invisible those masses of
women who were active party members and were not “just” wives of
important men (Sigmund 2000). As the expression “evil women” used in
the research shows, all of these women were relegated to a special and
extreme category, which therefore did not necessarily deserve proper sci-
entific attention (Schwarz 2000).
10 A. PETŐ
In the 1970s the Frankfurt School explained the popularity and mobi-
lizing force of Nazism among women with Hitler’s charismatic sexual
attractiveness, by which they relegated women into the category of irratio-
nal political agents (Evans 1976). The first attempts at a gendered exami-
nation of the far-right women as real political agents were in the 1980s.
This research used the framework of political history to analyze women’s
participation in the German national socialist movement, in order to find
out what kinds of social groups were mobilized by this movement as an
effect of the First World War and the ensuing economic crisis. There was a
prolonged debate between Gisella Bock and Claudia Koonz, which, after
the famous Historikerstreit on the responsibility of Germans in Nazism,
was called the Historikerinstreit.” This debate was about the definition of
collaboration, and its aim was the invalidation of the assumption that
German women were all victims of Nazi “sexism.” This assumption sweeps
under the carpet the fact that German women profited from racist German
politics partly through the social institutions of the eugenics program, and
because of the new forms of employment available for them. During the
debate, Bock criticized Koonz for enforcing a “collective guilt” onto
German women and homogenizing them as a group (Grossmann 1991).
During the Cold War, research in the countries of the Soviet bloc was
determined by the inaccessibility of state archives and the presence of ide-
ological taboos. Although the local far-right movements—albeit selec-
tively—were considered culpable for wartime collaboration in post-1945
anti-fascist historiography, women’s participation in the process was left
unexamined. The reason why research on extreme right-wing politics
remained gender blind for a long time was that the “glass ceiling” of polit-
ical organizations made women invisible (Pető-Szapor 2004). Furthermore,
during communism, accessing the files of extreme right-wing political
movements was a state dispensed privilege, and the privileged researchers
did not consider the women found in the files as “worthy” subjects. Now,
three decades after the collapse of communism, a complete and reliable
inventory of these files is still not available (Pető and Schrijvers 2006).
After 1989 there were still only a few women historians active in the
newly reconceived historical research of the former Soviet bloc, and they
were primarily interested in the history of communist, leftist and liberal
movements. These inquiries followed the logic of early feminist historical
research and aimed at examining whether there were women’s movements
that could be examples as well as sources of legitimacy for current cam-
paigns for women’s equality. The ever-growing presence and influence of

CHAPTER 2
From the onset of the Second World War, the framework of Hungarian
women’s politics went through radical changes: some charity societies
engaged in beforehand frowned-upon “high politics,” and many women
who experienced workplace discrimination decided to join the feminists,
the Arrow Cross, the social democrats or the communists. The analysis of
the Hungarian case reveals what the national socialist movement offered
to its female members,1 and the scrutiny of Hungarian woman war crimi-
nals brings closer the connections between gender and politics. This chap-
ter provides an overview of the social history of Hungarian far-right
women. It aims to show how the far right’s mobilization of a versatile,
multilayered recruitment base eventually led to the stereotype of the
“Arrow Cross woman” in public and legal discourse.
psychological independence into the movement and into the ideal state as
envisioned by the movement, when in principal the objective of the state
is to confine women in their homes.
A further point of comparison is the gender politics of the Republic of
Salò, the German puppet state in Italy. There are some similarities between
the Republic of Salò and the Arrow Cross rule: both were short lived and
both excelled in violence. However, it would be a mistake to approach the
activists of the Fascist women’s movement and the woman members of
the Arrow Cross as equivalent. In their memoires, the women who served
in the Republic of Salò’s Women’s Army Auxiliary Corps mention this
period as “the time of freedom” because they could finally leave the politi-
cally sanctified confinement of motherhood—in uniforms and armor
(Schiavo 2016: 135–145). During the period of the war’s radicalization,
these small and often previously banned parties entered the government,
and together with them their woman party members and supporters also
experienced a measure of independence and power. Still, in Hungary the
German-Hungarian military leadership did not set up a woman’s militia,
unlike in Italy, where the prolonged civil war necessitated it.
The primary bases of post–First World War far rights movements were
men’s friendships and connections (Mosse 2001). This holds true for the
Romanian Garda de Fier, the Iron Guard, which did not allow women
among its ranks (Ioanid 2004). They created a separate organization for
women; who as wives, lovers or mothers supported the men. While men
trained or engaged in strategic planning, women cooked, washed and per-
formed other household duties (Clark 2012).
The Arrow Cross Party had been formed in the misogynistic political
milieu of interwar Hungary, in which “women,” especially working, inde-
pendent, single women were regarded as a threat by the male economic,
political and cultural hegemony. The comradeship forged during the First
World War also created a cohesive force among male members. The Arrow
Cross leaders considered that women are inferior factors that hinder men
in achieving higher goals—therefore shaping the rhetoric of their wom-
en’s politics was especially challenging (Theweleit 1989).
After the First World War Hungarian women’s position fundamentally
changed with the right to vote in 1918 and the increase in women’s
employment. However, from the 1920s on women were again steadily
squeezed out from public life, which was achieved in part by restricting
their newly gained suffrage, and in part by attempts to restrict their access
to higher education gained in 1895 (Pető and Szapor 2004). It was against
