Hungarian Uprising

By Steve Inskeep
Published January 5, 2003 at 12:00 AM EST

Communist regimes collapsed across Europe in 1989... but could that have happened decades earlier? Host Steve Inskeep talks to Malcolm Byrne of the National Security Archives. Byrne helped edit a new book of documents detailing the tragic history of Hungary's failed 1956 uprising.
