La sombra de Ernő Gerő. La acusación de trotskismo a los brigadistas húngaros: Albacete (1938) y Budapest (1949)
Abstract
Resumen: Después de la Segunda Guerra Mundial en los estados de Europa del Este gobernados por los partidos comunistas que seguían el modelo soviético, se iniciaron procedimientos de depuración estalinista. Muchas víctimas procedían de las esferas más altas de la élite comunista. 155 personas fueron acusadas en Hungría en el proceso contra “László Rajk y su grupo” o “László Rajk y Compañía”. Muchos de ellos eran ex-brigadistas condenados por su “desviación trotskista” durante la Guerra Civil española. Con el análisis de las fuentes de fondos secretos de la policía política húngara y los documentos de la KGB, del Komintern y de las memorias de los supervivientes, el presente artículo examina “el hilo español”, destacando el papel negativo de Ernő Gerő en estos acontecimientos.
Palabras clave: Brigadistas húngaros, Brigadas Internacionales, László Rajk, Ernő Gerő, László Haas, depuración estalinista.
Abstract: After World War II, following the Soviet example, there was a political purge in the Eastern European countries that were under Communist governments. Many of the victims were from the highest ranks of the Communist parties. In Hungary 155 people were convicted in the show trial of “László Rajk and his associates”. One of the charges against Rajk and his group –who were all former brigadists – was the “Trockyist deviation” during the Spanish Civil War. This study, based on the formerly secret fonds of the Hungarian Political Police and the relevant documents of the Comintern and the KGB, analyses this “Spanish yarn”, and puts a special emphasis on Ernő Gerő’s negative role in the events.
Key words: Hungarian brigadists, László Rajk, Ernő Gerő, László Haász, Stalinist purge, International Brigades.
