In 1919, Lukács was appointed the Hungarian..?

  • Prime Minister

  • President

  • Minister of Culture

  • Minister of Defence

Answer

In 1919, Lukács was appointed the Hungarian Minister of Culture. This was a short-lived position, as the Hungarian Soviet Republic was overthrown by Romanian troops later that year. However, it is significant because it was one of the few times that Lukács held a political office. He was more comfortable working as an intellectual and theorist, and he was not particularly successful as a politician.
