  The aim of my study is to process the barely presented slice of the history of Nagykőrös: the history of the place, society, economy and politics of Nagykőrös between the two world wars. Luckily, with the help of the abundant remaining archival material and knowledge of the literature, the study aims to create a picture of Nagykőrös, with which we can also seek answers to three major questions. The first question is how a market town struggles to survive the social and economic regression caused by World War I. The second is how the situation changes when the leadership of the town is concentrated in the hands of a worthy mayor with progressive economic and political aspirations. The third question is how the problems of the world economy, national conservative politics and local political battles tie the hands of the progressive mayor. The author of the study trusts the reader to judge if clear answers indeed have been found to these questions.
