20.500.12556/DiRROS-22911 The languages of village governments in the eastern stretches of dualist Hungary rights and practices The article investigates patterns of written language choice in majority Romanian and German rural local governments in the eastern third of Dualist Hungary. In spite of the recognition that the Nationalities Act of 1868 accorded to the citizenry's linguistic diversity, the political establishment soon embarked on typical nation-state linguistic policies. It failed, however, to make new generations learn Hungarian. The central government promoted the use of Hungarian by incentivizing village secretaries, the only career bureaucrats in local governments. The article brings to the fore the tension between the push of a Hungarian-only ideology and the rapid spread of mother-tongue literacy. jeziki vaške vlade Madžarska zgodovina true false false Angleški jezik Slovenski jezik Delo ni kategorizirano 2025-07-08 10:25:16 2025-07-21 10:21:37 2025-10-24 03:52:38 0000-00-00 00:00:00 0 0 0 str. 1-30, 198 no. 1 Vol. 99 Jan. 2021 0000-00-00 Zaloznikova Objavljeno NiDoloceno 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 2021-01-01 94(41/49) 0037-6795 10.5699/slaveasteurorev2.99.1.0001 213464323 Berecz-Languages_Village_Governments-2021.pdf Berecz-Languages_Village_Governments-2021.pdf 1 074C11529456EAA96FF56E68EAF161B4 6e4be81ebc4da8ca829352cda2f521ef3d0258a1f288945ca5b0e801d2454ee7 329508f4-5bd5-11f0-8080-001a4af901a5 https://dirros.openscience.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=33373 https://www.jstor.org/stable/10.5699/slaveasteurorev2.99.1.0001 1 141b540f-5bd5-11f0-8080-001a4af901a5 https://dirros.openscience.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=33371 Inštitut za novejšo zgodovino 0 0 0
