From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ivan Mondok (1893 – 1941) was a Carpatho-Ukrainian politician. He served as the secretary of the Transcarpathian regional organization of the Communist Party of Czechoslovakia.[1]
Born 1893,[2] Mondok was a teacher by profession.[3] During the First World War, he fought in the Austro-Hungarian Army on the Eastern Front.[3] He was captured and spent time in Russia as a prisoner of war. During his stay in Russia, he became a communist.[3]
Mondok arrived in Budapest in 1919, and joined the ranks of the Hungarian Soviet Republic.[3] In 1920, he moved back to Užhorod.[3] He founded the International Socialist Party of Subcarpathian Rus' (one of the forerunners of the Communist Party of Czechoslovakia), and became the secretary of the party.[4]
He became a member of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Czechoslovakia in 1923.[3]
Mondok was elected to the Czechoslovak Chamber of Deputies in the 1924 Užhorod by-election.[2] He was re-elected in the 1925 Czechoslovak parliamentary election.[5] He served as editor of Karpatska Pravda between 1927 and 1928.[3]
In 1928, he was elected to the International Control Commission of the Communist International.[3] As Klement Gottwald rose to power in the Communist Party of Czechoslovakia, Mondok was stripped of his role in the party hierarchy.[3] Mondok migrated to the Soviet Union in the same year.[6] He became a member of the Communist Party (bolshevik) of Ukraine.[3] He was purged in December 1933, accused by the 13th Plenum of the Executive Committee of the Communist International of collaboration with the class enemy and subsequently arrested.[3][6] Mondok died in 1941, aged 47 or 48.[2]
