Posztkommunista vákuum, avagy a nemzet diskurzusának közép-kelet-európai vonatkozásai

Résumé

Post-communist vacuum or the discourse of the nation in CentralEastern Europe
The sociography of the Central and Eastern European region has been the subject of a very productive social science discourse in recent decades. In these writings, we see, for the most part, that various approaches to regional otherness have emerged from different disciplines, which seek the roots of this otherness primarily in differential national development and the socialist past. The following paper summarises these ideas and their critical reception in a broader sense of the region and a narrower sense
of Hungarian society.
