János Kornai was born in 1928, in a century of bloody and tragic twists and turns. His homeland, Hungary, was especially a dangerous place during the 20th century. Among other things, it fell under both totalitarian regimes: Nazism and Communism. Kornai’s personal life was also shaped by that century. His father became a victim of the Holocaust.
