Református sérelmek Romániában 1940–1945. között
Reformed grievances in Romania between 1940-1945

Summary/Abstract: The study presents the way Hungarian Reformed people were prejudiced by the Romanian authorities and civilians after the Second Vienna Award. First we present the discharge of the Hungarian workers from the Romanian mines and factories. This was followed by the forced immigration of these Hungarians to Northern Transylvania. We also present here the way that Romanian authorities have confiscated almost everything from the immigrants. The second part of our study presents the atrocities endured by Hungarians during the Antonescu regime. These atrocities varied from oral insults to spitting in face or slapping or even brutal beatings endured by Hungari-ans. We also present the methods used by the authorities to torture the Hungarian citi-zens suspected with espionage or disloyalty. Finally, we present the atrocities commit-ted against Reformed churches and buildings. A church tower was set on fire, another one was bombed with grenades and other ones were desecrated or ravaged.
