Description Right-wing extremist violence in Hungary seriously impacted the development of the country in the first two decades of this century. Some manifestations can be seen as an important challenge to current research on terrorism – mostly the cases of the so-called Death Squad and the Hungarian Arrows National Liberation Army. This article deals with the modi operandi of these groups within the context of political development in Hungary and in East Central Europe in recent times. The first of these groups murdered and injured Romani people with Molotov cocktails and shotguns; the targets of the second group were mostly political opponents. This group used arson attacks and explosives, but did not kill people.
