  • Music and emotions: A field study among Transylvanian Roma and a few cross-cultural comparisons

    Open Access•Tamás Hajnáczky•ARTICLE•Muzikologija•2025•References: 22

This analysis results in a model showing how the relations between musical actions and emotional behaviors change according to the performance context. In the second part, I propose some theoretical questions on musical emotion by comparing my field data with those comin…

  • Parasitic Gypsies” versus self-helping Gypsy musicians: Historical facts and moving beyond stereotypes

    Open Access•Tamás Hajnáczky•ARTICLE•Muzikologija•2025•References: 5

    In the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy and during the Horthy era in the 1930s, the ?wandering Gypsies? and later the inhabitants of Gypsy settlements were often labelled ?parasites? by the journalists, officials, and the gendarmes. For decades, Gypsy musicians were treated differently, enjoying a certain privileged role in relation to the rest of the Gypsy community. However, by the 1930s, Gypsy musicians too often found themselves categorized as ?para…

    Open Access•Tamás Hajnáczky•ARTICLE•Romani Studies•2025•References: 2

    The aim of this paper is to describe the single party-state’s Gypsy settlement elimination programme in socialist Hungary. In the course of the research, I relied mainly on decrees and reports issued by the local council apparatus as “secret dossiers” and on sociological studies from the period. The ideological background of the communist state’s Gypsy settlement elimination programme, the so-called “CS-housing” programme (CS = reduced comfort le…

  • Execution of Forced “Gypsy” Assimilation Policy in Hungary during the Socialist Era

    Open Access•Tamás Hajnáczky•ARTICLE•Treatises and Documents Journal…•2022

    Following World War II, Hungary fell under the influence and surveillance of the Soviet Union. This resulted in the Hungarian Workers’ Party assuming complete control over the nation. After the defeat of the 1956 Revolution, the ruling party re-formed as the Hungarian Socialist Workers’ Party, and after a few years of preparatory work, it composed its Roma policy of forced assimilation. This study presents the Roma policy of the single party stat…

  • The Gypsy issue” in Hungary during the interwar years (II)

    Open Access•Tamás Hajnáczky•ARTICLE•Journal of Ethnology and…•2022•Cited by: 1•References: 2

    During the interwar years in Hungary, the authorities approached the issue of Gypsy settlements mainly through regulations concerning public health. Measures to try to settle the so-called “wandering Gypsies” resulted indirectly in the creation of new Gypsy settlements. The conflicting interests of government ministries and the local authorities became all the more apparent, as they both expected the provision of the accompanying necessary funds …

  • Hungarian Gypsy Musician’s National Association: Battles Faced by Gypsy Musicians in Hungary during the Interwar Years

    Open Access•Tamás Hajnáczky•ARTICLE•Social Inclusion•2020•Cited by: 2•References: 1

    The governments of the Horthy era did not formulate a central Gypsy policy and, consequently, the so-called ‘Gypsy issue’ fell fully into the hands of the assigned ministries and local authorities. The public authorities acted at their own discretion: Largely, they acted according to their basic tasks and understanding, or simply ignored the issue. As a result, the Ministry of the Interior and the Ministry of Welfare and Labour were the decisive …
