Hungary at the threshold of Europe. (The key is under the doormat)

M. Szanto

Tarsadalomkutatas (Social Science Research) > 2004 > 22 > 1 > 55-73

The article argues that the centre-periphery relationship depends on historical circumstances and the extent of its effects is different in the military, political, and cultural subsystems. The changes in the geo-strategic position of Hungary in the last sixty years prove this argument. The author demonstrates this thesis on the history of Hungary between 1938 and 2004. He analyses each decade from...

Conservatism versus socialism. The late-Victorian prophet of inequality, Mallock

G. Egedy

Tarsadalomkutatas (Social Science Research) > 2004 > 22 > 1 > 147-161

The most relentless attack on socialism in Britain in the late nineteenth century was made by W. H. Mallock. He was one of the few Conservatives to take socialism seriously enough to subject it to a rigorous criticism and thus he did more than probably anyone else to convince Conservatives that socialism, and not liberalism, was their real enemy. Mallock was dissatisfied with evolutionary sociology,...

The eye of the hurricane. A value sociological analysis of the film Passion

K. Varga

Tarsadalomkutatas (Social Science Research) > 2004 > 22 > 1 > 27-53

The paper analyses the provocative elements and stormy reception of Gibson's 'Passion' with the help of Morris's semiotic-axiological conceptual set. It compares the manipulation of appearance with the manipulated sight of the frescoes in Baroque domes opening to the physical sky and the metaphysical Heaven. In the latter one it interprets the pia fraus stressed by Küng with the pragmatic approach...

The article analyses the concepts and model of social evolution. The most important concepts of biological evolution (mutation, selection, evolution, micro-evolution, selective pressure, environment of evolutionary adaptation, evolutionary stable strategy) are taken for granted and adapted to describe some important phenomena of sociology, with their necessary adaptation to social 'institutions'....

Tarsadalomkutatas (Social Science Research) > 2004 > 22 > 1 > 103-116

This way the paper is at once an eminent work on the history of...

Some issues of criminal acts committed against homeless persons

Gy. Biro, A. Vadasz

Tarsadalomkutatas (Social Science Research) > 2004 > 22 > 1 > 73-101

Homelessness, as a form of life, is one of the most serious social and welfare problems nowadays. The problem of homelessness shows the defects of welfare (unemployment care, child and youth care), different social (law enforcement) systems of provision and certain legal regulations (e.g. no proper regulations protecting the rights of tenants). On the other hand homelessness can be the cause of other...

article

The logic of power III-IV

I. Javor

Tarsadalomkutatas (Social Science Research) > 2004 > 22 > 1 > 41-71

The first part of this study includes the definition of power. Organizations have two subsystems, the subsystem of professional activity (production, service, etc.) and the subsystem of power. From an economic angle the organisation has to finance both the power as well as the professional subsystems. In the relationship between the organisation and the environment a weak power position causes losses,...

The land is not only an issue of agriculture but the basis of the national defence strategy

E. Tanka

Tarsadalomkutatas (Social Science Research) > 2004 > 22 > 1 > 5-26

In Hungary the land issue has been a key question of bourgeois modernisation since the 19th century that has not yet been solved to this date. Instead of private land ownership and family farms based on the owner's work we have arrived in the European Union with a system of large estates. The land issue has been made an existential issue for national self-determination and ethnic survival by our Union...

Specific features of 'minority' and 'majority' paths of patients

Antal-Z., L.

Tarsadalomkutatas (Social Science Research) > 2004 > 22 > 2/3 > 335-366

In my paper I analysed the characteristics of the relationship between the 'minorities' (it is the special name of the Gypsies) and the 'majority' in the institutions of health service. These relationships often cause tensions and I tried to find explanations for them in the cultural differences. One of the most important results of the research is that the institutions of health service - mainly...

Gy. Csepeli

Tarsadalomkutatas (Social Science Research) > 2004 > 22 > 2/3 > 271-278

Information age necessitates social organizations to create new form of logistics enabling them to adapt to the environment. Social organizations are consisting of human beings whose intelligence does not result in the enhancement of intelligence level of the origanization.

The operational risk of power. Parts V-VI

I. Javor

Tarsadalomkutatas (Social Science Research) > 2004 > 22 > 2/3 > 171-202

The study presents a new aspect of organizational power system. The basic tendency in a power system is to control all the connections of organizational social relations. This aim however is unrealistic. Many of the relations of a social system are out of control. The uncontrollable relations result in uncertainty and risk for power. It cannot grasp many informal relations, the thoughts of people,...

The creation of a uniform public service and of social opportunities (interpretation, assessment, efficiency)

J. Vadasz

Tarsadalomkutatas (Social Science Research) > 2004 > 22 > 2/3 > 315-334

In Hungary there has been an ongoing discussion on the public service tasks of the state and of the local governments for several decades. The discussion includes the demands rightfully set by the citizen on a well-established basis, and also the institutional, personal and budgetary conditions of meeting those demands. The present paper deals with the necessity of the comprehensive reform in progress,...

article

The countryside and the villages 'after agriculture'

L. Laki

Tarsadalomkutatas (Social Science Research) > 2004 > 22 > 2/3 > 245-269

The paper deals with a rather embarrassing problem, namely that while our country wishes to and is forced to join a globalizing world where the weight of agriculture and the people engaged in it has shrunk to its mere fragment during the past century, and while despite our past in state socialism it was this trend that has emerged in Hungary too, yet, after the change of the political system the political...

The theory of rational decisions and social sciences

J. Meszaros

Tarsadalomkutatas (Social Science Research) > 2004 > 22 > 4 > 427-451

In social sciences action theories and the definitions of actions play a central role. Largely simplifying in the later discussion, it is only important to us that the application area of the theory of rational choice is a subset of instrumentally rational action. In our opinion the theory of rational choice is only applicable to the other types of action in an unnatural way and with very strong transpositions...
