  Janos Kadar, Dictator of the Month October, 2001
In 1951, Kadar was accused of treason by Matyas Rakosi for being sympathetic to Tito and jailed until 1953.
Kadar now felt that the Nagy reforms were going to far and began to develop an intense dislike for him; and the lack of unity on policy within the leadership of Hungary led to a schism of the revolt’s central control.
Kadar remained in power until 1988, when he was forced to step down due to his then-failing health and the coincident collapse of the Warsaw Pact alliance; he was then relegated to symbolic political appointments until 1989, when he was unable to perform even ceremonial state functions due to advanced senility.
