The Dream of the White Internationale: Secret Hungarian–German–Austrian Negotiations and Attempts of Military Cooperation, 1919–1923

This book explores the complex post-World War I political landscape in Central Europe, focusing on the rise of radical right-wing movements in Germany, Austria, and Hungary. It examines the efforts of these movements, particularly those led by figures like General Erich Ludendorff, Colonel Max Bauer, and Adolf Hitler, to forge a "White Internationale" aimed at revising the Treaty of Versailles and restoring monarchist, nationalist regimes across Europe. The narrative delves into the secretive negotiations between Hungarian, German, and Austrian far-right groups, the formation of paramilitary alliances, and the failed Kapp-Lüttwitz Putsch of 1920. Drawing on historical documents, personal letters, and military plans, this book provides a detailed analysis of the radical right's vision for reshaping Europe and the geopolitical ambitions that defined the interwar period.
