Download or read book The Children s Republic of Gaudiopolis written by Gergely Kunt and published by Central European University Press. This book was released on 2022-03-29 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gaudiopolis (The City of Joy) was a pedagogical experiment that operated in a post–World War II orphanage in Budapest. This book tells the story of this children’s republic that sought to heal the wounds of wartime trauma, address prejudice and expose the children to a firsthand experience of democracy. The children were educated in freely voicing their opinions, questioning authority, and debating ideas. The account begins with the saving of hundreds of Jewish children during the Siege of Budapest by the Lutheran minister Gábor Sztehlo together with the International Red Cross. After describing the everyday life and practices of self-rule in the orphanage that emerged from this rescue operation, the book tells how the operation of the independent children’s home was stifled after the communist takeover and how Gaudiopolis was disbanded in 1950. The book then discusses how this attempt of democratization was erased from collective memory. The erasure began with the banning of a film inspired by Gaudiopolis. The Communist Party financed Somewhere in Europe in 1947 as propaganda about the construction of a new society, but the film’s director conveyed a message of democracy and tolerance instead of adhering to the tenets of socialist realism. The book breaks the subsequent silence on “The City of Joy,” which lasted until the fall of the Iron Curtain and beyond.

Download or read book Remember Us written by The Hungarian Hidden Children and published by . This book was released on 2009-01 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If you simply must read one local government management book this year, then this is the one for you. Bauer, the autobiographical author, after eighteen months service, just got fired as county manager for no good reason from a county in which he had previously managed for six years. Bauer chronicles the ensuing five months of his life: his thoughts, prayers, actions, successes, failures. For students, practitioners, and local taxpayers worldwide, the book is replete with improvement suggestions for more than thirty service areas, ranging from agendas to water and sewer. You will discover recommendations like tax churches in order to lower local property taxes, pay people to vote to increase turnout, and have professional juries in order to decrease administrative costs as well as reduce the unemployment rate. It is all based on Bauer's personally odd and oddly personal thirty years of local government experience. Things not taught in school; you will find them here. Things you were taught in school and want to forget; you will find them here. Thoughout, Bauer contemplates and answers the age old question: does God have a place in local government and more particularly, county management? Hint: God never had to balance a budget nor recommend raising taxes, but He did have to reprimand an employee or two. At the end of the day, you enjoy unraveling life's knots and accepting God's rescue boats; you are seeking a down-to-earth, tongue-in-cheek, efficient/effective, suprisingly uplifting textbook; you wouldn't be reading this promo if you weren't half-interested; it is now up to you to welcome and appreciate the ironies of other things.
