Abstract

[There is a characteristic two-stage pattern of exile in the case of Hungarians who fled their native country after the fall of the 1918–1919 revolutions, settled in Germany and then found diemselves forced to flee again by Hitler’s rise to power. I want to focus on the career of an artist, László Moholy-Nagy, and compare some of its turning-points with those in the life of a sociologist, Károly Mannheim. This comparison is intended to highlight the importance of international professional networks for migrants within the art world or academia, which account for some specific features that set apart the careers of scientists, scholars, and artists in exile from those of other emigrants.]
