Summary/Abstract: The paper deals with the way Hungarian and Yugoslav satirical journals (Jež, Ludas Matyi, Szabad száj, Pesti izé, Új szó, Derű) published between 1945 and 1947 presented war criminals and extreme rightist groups, examined by the method of historical comparison. After the change of regime, extreme right parties appeared as a new enemy, and were presented as such in both leftist and democratic journals. Communists, Bolsheviks were persecuted between the two World Wars and during the World War II, their parties were prohibited, which leads us to examine how they were visually presented after WW II and what kind of (self) image they gave of the workers. The aim of the study is to reveal who was declared guilty by the new communist journals aiming to strengthen their power, and how they conveyed this to the readers.
