The Hungarian revolution of 1956 was a most radical

movement that arouse

against of Stalinism or model sovietic during the Cold War.

It was a spontaneous explosion of rebellion a population subjugated by a system
pro-Stalinist, it began with a student manifestation in 23 octuber to which joined workers,
employees, intellectuals and all groups

social

composing hungarian society,

and it lasted about thirteen days.

As a result of the Revolution of 56 many Hungarians they were persecuted by the

political police, prompting the need for immigration cases and more desperate to flee to
neighboring countries Hungary, for example Austria.

James Michener wrote in 1957 The Bridge at Andau chronicling de Hungarian

Revolution 1956.
There was a bridge at Andau, and if a Hugarian could reach
that bridge, he was nearly free.
He told us about that many refugees and persecuted people crossing the bridge
at Andau searching a freedom, because who had known communism and who had
rejected it.. Andau wasnt Hungary , was a village in Austria.
James Michener told in relation to the exodus that occurred from Hungary on the
occasion of the revolution of 56, as many people decided to leave the country for
disagreeing with fraud representing communism.
University students, professionals from different areas, represented these
immigrant groups and especially young couples with small children, who had to sedate
children to cross the bridge, and once in Austria would have to revive the children lest they
sleep too long.
It is usual in this type of political system is activated uncontrolled immigration ,
especially of professional elites, precisely because these systems are castrating of
individual wills and restricts the personal development of each individual.
This situation repeat again and again in latest of history where countries take the
communism as a form of government. In Venezuela is happening, where the bridge at
Andau is a Simon Bolivar International Airport of Maiquetia, the hall is the work of Carlos
Cruz Diez Cromointerferencia, of the corridor waiting and lounges ticketing airline who
must cross those who leave the country and unfortunately unwilling to return by the lack of
quality of life caused by an aberrant system called Socialism of the Twenty-First Century .
The bridge at Andau was destroyed, in 1956 by Soviet troops. It was rebuilt in 1996 as
a symbol of tolerance and helpfulness, in our countrie we have hopefulness that who leaving,
coming soon, and the hall Carlos Cruz Diez will be symbol of welcome to a free and peaceful
Venezuela.
