Zoltán Novák: The Budapest Reform Circle of the Hungarian Socialist Workers' Party – the role of the reform circle movement in the change of regime in Hungary

The problems and the real economic and social structure of the village, and the reasons and trends of its today almost catastrophic situation are mostly unknown to the leftist readers and political movements. Without conscious structural changes the anachronistic agriculture and the fragmented farm structure formed on the ruins of the co-operative system that was destroyed after the change of regime, continue to be the certain sources of poverty and backwardness.
