Summary/Abstract: This study elaborates on the history of the Hungarian Party based on sources from contemporary Hungarian (Bácsmegyei Napló, Hírlap, Torontál, Délbácska) and Serbian (Vreme, Politika, Pravda) press. The Hungarian Party is a Hungarian minority organization which was founded and operated on the territory of the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes. The focus is on the events following the first failed election in 1923, up until the new 1925 election. For the purpose of understanding and accurately reconstructing the events at the time, the study analyses events that received outstanding attention in contemporary public life in chronological order, completing the current literature: the arrest of Ödön Nagy and László Gráber, the banning of the party, the causal relationship of internal conflicts within the party, the struggle between the clearly identifiable factions at the time and the attitudes of the political circles of Belgrade towards the Hungarian question.
