  • Home Care for Sale: Marketisation and Social Change

    Open Access•Attila Melegh•ARTICLE•Social Inclusion•2026

    The evolving crises, contradictions of care, marketisation, and demographic developments are clear, substantial, and inevitable, and are driving social change. In this context, the book Home Care for Sale: The Transnational Brokering of Senior Care in Europe , which highlights some of these contradictions, is essential reading. More importantly, it provides valuable insights. Rather than offering simplistic critiques, we need to consider contradi…

  • Migration anxieties in Eastern Europe. Material grounds for an anti-migrant turn in a global-historical perspective

    Attila Melegh, Zoltán Csányi•ARTICLE•Journal of Contemporary Central…•2023•References: 12

    Seeking to understand how socio-historical factors shaped global emigration trends in the new globalization cycle and how Eastern Europe’s integration into these processes might be linked to the rising nationalism and anti-migrant attitudes of this region, we created macro-models on a worldwide sample of 77 countries and examined the impact of the socio-economic change of the early 90’s on later emigration trends. The key research question refers…

  • Momentos de Hegemonia – raízes históricas do capitalismo autoritário e a política educacional: O caso da Hungria

    Open Access•Attila Melegh•ARTICLE•Lutas Sociais•2019

    Este artigo apresenta uma breve análise da reviravolta nacionalista antiliberal na Hungria após a década de 1990 à luz do conceito gramsciano de hegemonia, destacando, no plano político, o papel da produção discursiva na formação da classe de transição e, no plano econômico e social, o papel da política educacional

  • The mental map of national hierarchy in Europe

    Jeffrey Swindle, Shawn F Doriu et al.•ARTICLE•International Journal of Sociology•2019•Cited by: 5•References: 15

    We theorize that people's perceptions of national hierarchy are aligned not only with longstanding cultural schemas of development but also with schemas of cultural wealth. We use data from the Nation Brands Index surveys to examine how European publics' evaluate their own country and other European countries across many attributes. We find that European publics rank northwest European countries highest on developmental attributes and southwester…

  • Abandoned Hungarian workers and the political economy of care work in Austria

    Open Access•Attila Melegh, Dóra Gábriel et al.•ARTICLE•Szociológiai Szemle•2018

    In an era of globalization, the institutional system of mass migration is being substantially reorganized: its intensity and the variation in its forms are increasing. Global production chains combine diverse areas and different forms of work with varying wage levels by forming worldwide networks. In the Eastern European region, the growing level of emigration and relatively low fertility are leading to population loss. Hungary is not among the E…

  • The perception of global hierarchies: South-Eastern European patterns in comparative perspectives

    Open Access•Attila Melegh, Tamas Kiss et al.•ARTICLE•Chinese Journal of Sociology•2016•Cited by: 4•References: 4

    In this paper we examine the views of ordinary people in Hungary and Romania about developmental trajectories and developmental hierarchies. Our work extends research on perception of global hierarchies as we include the views of ordinary people in the countries of Hungary and Romania. In addition, our research makes a unique contribution to the development and developmental hierarchy literature by examining, for the first time, how individuals d…

  • Perceptions of Societal Developmental Hierarchies in Europe and Beyond: A Bulgarian Perspective

    Attila Melegh, Arland Thornton et al.•ARTICLE•European Sociological Review•2013•Cited by: 4•References: 8

    We examine how ordinary citizens in Bulgaria view the developmental levels of European countries and certain states outside of Europe. Our research is motivated by the understanding that scholars and policy makers have for centuries used developmental hierarchies to characterize countries and that this perception of differential development has shaped interactions among different groups, countries and regions. We expect that views of such develop…

  • Living to Ourselves: Localising Global Hierarchies in State-Socialist Hungary in the 1970s and 1980s

    Open Access•Attila Melegh•ARTICLE•Journal of Modern European History•2011•Cited by: 1

    Living to Ourselves. Localising Global Hierarchies in State-Socialist Hungary in the 1970s and 1980s This paper analyses how globally framed social changes were intertwined with the history of «local» symbolic and discursive practices during the 1970s and early 1980s, when the economic crisis of the 1970s transformed state socialism and its perspectives in Hungary. This is certainly a very complex history with a very complex set of institutional …
