1 Hungarian Sociological Association Babeş -Bolyai University Call for Papers Nationhood in the Carpathian Region Hungarians and their Neighbours Sociological Perspectives Joint Conference of the Hungarian Sociological Association and the Department of Sociology and Social Work in Hungarian of Babeş-Bolyai University November Babeş-Bolyai University Cluj-Napoca, Romania The annual conference is aimed to discuss topics that give us the opportunity to consider what sociology could teach us about being Hungarian, nationhood and minority. The Hungarian nation once developed differently from the pattern of European nation building and became a political nation. Later, following a tragic turn of events, it was forced back into a cultural framework. This is the Hungarian paradigm. During the conference we intend to measure the sociological and socio-psychological consequences of this paradigm, leaving the traditional historical agenda of national discourse. Our goal is to provide a forum to discuss sociological research results from Slovakia, Ukraine, Romania, Serbia, Croatia, Austria, and Hungary from which we hope we will have a clearer picture on the position, the challenges and chances of being Hungarian in 21th century European Society. Keynote lectures will focus on dual citizenship, identity and ethnocentrism while the goal of the panels will be to have social scientists from the Carpathian Basin reflect on current social problems. The sections will provide opportunities to present the most recent research results. The Conference Keynote Lectures 1.
