Solidarity in Ethnically Diverse Contexts
The relationship between Roma and non‐Roma in Central and Eastern European countries is determined by growing socio‐economic inequalities, racism based on structural inequalities, and far‐right policies of scapegoating. This trend is reinforced by the generally low level of social mobility. However, parallel to the main trend, a less visible process enables the social mobility of people of Roma origin born into marginalised, socio‐economically lo…
The Dilemmas of Solidarity of Civic Activists
Civic actors working with marginalized and disadvantaged groups in society face various dilemmas associated with defining and, if needed, ranking human needs and vulnerabilities. Our article examines the reasonings for intervention in civic solidarity operations that emerged in response to the arrivals of displaced Ukrainians in Hungary in 2022–2023. Solidarians have strived to find spaces of action in an authoritarian regime that normalizes poli…
The future imaginaries and counter-politics of solidarity work
Constrained Localism in an Authoritarian Environment
The paper examines how collaborations and alliance-building among civic and municipal actors supporting displaced Ukrainians in Hungary contributed to the emergence of localism as an alternative approach to the central state’s hostile migration policy and curtailment of the rights of civic and municipal actors. The qualitative research, which forms the basis of this study, explored the solidarity acts of civic and municipal actors and considered …
Solidarity with Displaced People from Ukraine in Hungary
The paper explores the attitudes of Hungarian civil society in the context of the war against Ukraine, the active agents of solidarity, and the general social atmosphere associated with welcoming displaced people. Based on a population survey from the summer of 2022, the paper draws an ambivalent picture. First, it highlights the exceptional momentum and mobilising power of civil solidarity both in terms of practical involvement and expressed att…
The political aspects of solidarity mobilizations in the context of shrinking civil society during the first wave of Covid-19
This paper contributes to the literature on solidarity mobilizations and the framings of social and political change in the context of the shrinking welfare state, de-democratization, and repressive state policies towards civil society. These issues are explored through the lens of interview-based research on Hungarian solidarity initiatives that emerged in response to the first wave of the COVID-19 pandemic between March and June 2020. We specif…
We Are That In-Between Nation
The article elaborates on the role of deservingness discourses in regulating membership of non-citizen groups in Germany. Specifically, it focuses on Hungarians working or volunteering in institutions of refugee accommodation in Germany. It asks how personal migration experience and migrant statuses and identities of Hungarian workers are mobilised when recreating discourses of refugee-deservingness. Performance expectations on refugees related t…
Deployed fears and suspended solidarity along the migratory route in Europe
The aim of the paper is to understand the reasons for the spread of fear, the suspension of solidarity, and the securitizing national and local context along the European migratory route. A settlement located on the Hungarian side of the Serbian-Hungarian border, heavily affected by international migration in 2015, is the focus of inquiry. The mayor of the village is a major figure in the Hungarian far-right who mobilized not only the political s…
Producing the nation through philanthropy
This paper explores interconnections between nationhood and philanthropy, namely, how philanthropy works as a domain of meaningful social practice framed by national ideologies and how interpretations born in the institutional contexts of philanthropy may play a central role in making sense of the nation. We observe how various divisions inherent in philanthropic practices—between helpers and the helped and between those who take part in helping …
Memory-Politics and Neonationalism
Analyzing the newly emerged Trianon cult, this article argues that the current wave of memory politics became the engine of new forms of nationalism in Hungary constituted by extremist and moderate right-wing civic and political actors. Following social anthropologists Gingrich and Banks, the term neonationalism will be applied and linked with the concept "mythomoteur" of John Armstrong and Anthony D. Smith, emphasizing the role of preexisting et…
How Migration Experience Affects the Acceptance and Active Support of Refugees? Philanthropy and Paid Work of Hungarian Migrants in the German Immigrant Service
The paper examines migration experience and migrant solidarity within a differential migration system. The paper unfolds how Hungarians living in Germany have become involved in refugee support (either in form of voluntary or paid work), and how their engagement relates to their own experience of migration. Concerning applied methods the paper is based on a quantitative online survey and qualitative interviews

Szolidaritás és társadalmi reflexió a menekültek önkéntes segítőinek elbeszéléseiben
A tanulmány a szolidaritás elbeszéléséiben megjelenő társadalmi kategóriákat és identitásokat vizsgálja a reflexív jótékonyság fogalmi keretei között.A magyarországi menekültsegítésben részt vevő civilekkel készült interjúk alapján a következő kérdésekre igyekszik választ adni: (1) miként mondják el a segítők a szolidaritás tapasztalatát saját élettörténetükbe ágyazva, illetve miként keretezik az élettörténetek a menekültekkel való szolidaritás e…
Rocking the nation
The aim of this paper is to understand contemporary forms of nationalism in a socio‐political context in which neo‐nationalism has obtained a dominant role not just in politics but in public discourse and in the cultural field as well. It investigates the emergence of a particular music scene in the beginning of the 21st century, shaped by rock bands and performers and supported by far‐right political actors, which has made the ‘national’ imagina…

Nationalist Politics and Everyday Ethnicity in a Transylvanian Town
In 1998
The year 1998 marked the 150th anniversary of the cascading wave of revolution that swept across Europe in the spring of 1848. Like all great upheavals (indeed like all great events, personalities, or works of art), the revolutions of 1848 do not contain their own meaning. Powerful cultural objects-whether events, persons, or cultural creations-are always ambiguous: indeed that ambiguity, according to Griswold (1987a) is a key part of what consti…
