Book Sociology in Hungary

Download or read book Sociology in Hungary written by Victor Karády and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-07-29 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the first English-language study of the social, intellectual and institutional history of sociology and the social sciences in Hungary. Starting with the emergence of the discipline in the early 20th century, Karady and Nagy chart its development throughout various transformations of Hungarian society: from the liberal Dual Monarchy, through the respective Christian and Stalinist regimes, and culminating in the modern scholarly field today. Drawing on large-scale prosopographical materials, the authors use empirically-based socio-historical analysis to measure the impact of successive and radical regime changes on the country's intellectual life. This will be an important and original point of reference for scholars and students of historical sociology, and Eastern European intellectual history.

Download or read book Equality by Design written by Szonja Szelényi and published by Stanford University Press. This book was released on 1999-01-01 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Social mobility is a classic topic in sociology, and Hungary presents an interesting case study for a number of reasons. The communist regime that took power after World War II had the proclaimed goal of eliminating the abusive inequalities of the old regime and creating an egalitarian society; it accordingly introduced numerous measures intended to favor the advancement of people with working-class backgrounds. That to some extent these policies worked cannot be disputed, but over time did they simply replace one privileged class with another? What happened during the communist reform era of the late 1970’s and 1980’s, when Hungary went much further along the path of decentralizing the economy than any other Eastern bloc country? What happened in the postcommunist era? And what difference did such age-old liabilities as being Jewish or female make? There is as much scholarly debate over how to address these questions in an intellectually rigorous way as there is over the answers to them. This study aims to contribute to the debate by analyzing random samples of both elites and the general population and by carrying out comparisons across presocialist, socialist, and postsocialist society. Its main methodological goal is to explore the implications of carefully distinguishing between the effects of socialist reform on the distribution of inequality from its effects on the underlying rules by which inequality is allocated.

  • Release : 1994-02-12
  • ISBN : 1349231266
  • Pages : 325 pages

Download or read book Magyar Women written by Chris Corrin and published by Springer. This book was released on 1994-02-12 with total page 325 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Vast changes within East and Central Europe since 1989 have brought countries in this region, including Hungary, under sharp focus. This important study of women's situation within the changing context of Hungarian society gives a comprehensive overview of the various factors which make up women's lives. Rather than experiencing social radicalism in the 1960s, women in Hungary were experiencing the full effects of their rigid, authoritarian statist policies. What this meant for their everyday lives is considered in terms of women's paid and unpaid work, family ideologies, social policy innovations, women's health care, changing attitudes, and women's hopes and aspirations. Against the background of new openings on the political scene, questions concerning civil society and space for women's agendas are vital.

Book A History of Modern Hungary  1867 1986

Download or read book A History of Modern Hungary 1867 1986 written by Jörg Konrad Hoensch and published by Longman Publishing Group. This book was released on 1988 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mentions that although the ca. 700,000 Jews in Hungary were emancipated in 1849 and 1867, increasing nationalism in the 1880s was accompanied by a rise in antisemitism and the founding of an antisemitic political party. Following World War I, the Jews served as scapegoats for the dissatisfactions of the middle class and the army. Discusses the antisemitic legislation of the 1920s-30s and the right-wing antisemitic parties, including the Arrow Cross. The chapter on Hungary during the Second World War describes the deportation of over 450,000 Jews after the German occupation in 1944 and the murder of Jews by the Arrow Cross regime. Notes that although many leaders of the postwar Stalinist regime were Jews, they carried out purges against Jews in the guise of anti-Zionism.

Book Rascally Signs in Sacred Places

Download or read book Rascally Signs in Sacred Places written by David E. Whisnant and published by Univ of North Carolina Press. This book was released on 2000-11-09 with total page 588 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: David Whisnant provides a comprehensive analysis of the dynamic relationship between culture, power, and policy in Nicaragua over the last 450 years. Spanning a broad spectrum of popular and traditional expressive forms--including literature, music, film, and broadcast media--the book explores the evolution of Nicaraguan culture, its manipulation for political purposes, and the opposition to cultural policy by a variety of marginalized social and regional groups. Within the historical narrative of cultural change over time, Whisnant skillfully discusses important case studies of Nicaraguan cultural politics: the consequences of the unauthorized removal of archaeological treasures from the country in the nineteenth century; the perennial attempts by political factions to capitalize on the reputation of two venerated cultural figures, poet Ruben Dario and rebel General Augusto C. Sandino; and the ongoing struggle by Nicaraguan women for liberation from traditional gender relations. Originally published in 1995.

Book Hungary s Negotiated Revolution

Download or read book Hungary s Negotiated Revolution written by Rudolf L. Tökés and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1996-09-28 with total page 578 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, first published in 1996, Rudolf Tökés offers a comprehensive overview of the rise and fall of the Kadar regime in Hungary between 1957 and 1990. The approach is interdisciplinary, reviewing the regime's record with emphasis on politics, macroeconomic policies, social change and the ideas and personalities of political dissidents and the regime's 'successor generation'. The study provides a fully documented reconstruction of the several phases of the ancien régime's road from economic reform to political collapse, based on interviews with former top party leaders and transcripts of the Party Central Committee. Tökés gives an in-depth account of the personalities and issues involved in Hungary's peaceful transformation from one-party state to parliamentary democracy, and a comprehensive assessment of Hungary's post-Communist politics, economy and society.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The history of sociology -- outside of accounts of the thought and influence of such founding figures as Marx, Durkheim and Weber -- remains relatively little examined. With an increasing emphasis on the globalization of research and knowledge, there is a growing need for scholars to understand the context of disciplinary development in other countries. In this book an international team of authors consider the nature of sociology and its development in a range of countries. Concentrating on the period since 1945, they show how the intellectual and institutional history of sociology has varied widely. Key differences in the nature of sociology -- the stress on quantitative methods in American sociology, the growing influenc
