Summary/Abstract: The study analyses the policy of the leadership of the Communist Party of Slovakia (CPS) towards communists of Hungarian nationality after February 1948. It examines the attitude of the Communist Party of Czechoslovakia (CPC) and CPS to the membership of people of Hungarian nationality in their ranks with an emphasis on the fact that significant questions in this area were decided on the level of the CPC leadership in Prague. The Communist Party of Slovakia, already only a regional organization of the CPC, consistently put these decisions into practice. The paper gives a picture of the formation and activity of the Hungarian Commission at the Central Committee of the CPS, which worked from November 1948 to October 1949.
