The salami tactic was the colloquial name for the behavior and political methods used by the Hungarian Communist Party against other parties after the 1945 and 1947 Hungarian elections in order to quickly come to power. The essence of the procedure was to divide, weaken and destroy opponents piece by piece. The term was first used by Mátyás Rákosi. In a broader sense, this tactic was also used by other communist parties operating in the Soviet occupation zone to establish their autocracy. In the political life that was reorganized at the end of the Second World War, the communists, partly with Soviet encouragement and support, almost immediately began the systematic usurpation of power and the elimination of political opponents. First, they banned the fascist and far-right parties, and soon after, the leaders and leading figures of the main rival parties were arrested, or sentenced to prison on trumped-up charges, or forced to flee, then into permanent emigration. Some were simply kidnapped and taken to the Soviet Union by Soviet troops, such as István Bethlen, one of the most influential politicians in Hungary between the two wars, or Béla Kovács, the general secretary of the first post-war Független Kisgazda Party, which won the 1945 elections. Those who replaced leaders, leading individuals, and other party members deemed “dangerous” in the eyes of the communist authorities were neutralized one by one, isolated from each other: they were usually blackmailed, expelled from the parties, forced to retreat or leave the country. They were not selective in their means. The parties weakened and intimidated in this way usually quickly split into several parts, “sliced up”, and then usually dissolved on their own or ceased their activities.
