III In Lieu of an Afterword

  • A Utopian Vision? A Modest Proposal to Prevent Nations from Causing Future Wars

  • Nicolae Harsanyi
  • Published online by Cambridge University Press:
    20 November 2018, pp. 547-549

  • I certainly find the present times most engaging: I have had the chance to live through events that will not be neglected by historians—the collapse of communism in Eastern Europe and the subsequent end of the Cold War, the failed Moscow coup and the breathtaking aftermath of undoing “mankind's golden dream” in its very cradle, the Soviet Union. There is so much hope in the air for East Europeans to return to development which was thwarted by decades of imposed socialist dictatorship. The sweet taste of freedom and self-assertion helps people to overcome the economic hardships ravaging the area. From the Baltic to the Balkans, from the Tatra to the Caucasus and beyond, nations, nationalities, and minorities show signs of vitality and righteous affirmation of their own complex existence on territories fragmented by conventional boundaries established with or without their own consent or approval.

III In Lieu of an Afterword

  • The Hungarians in East Central Europe: A Demographic Profile

  • László Sebök
  • Published online by Cambridge University Press:
    20 November 2018, pp. 551-562

  • The following tables have been compiled on the basis of published census data. In many instances this has necessitated explanatory footnotes for the following reasons:

    1. The oldest census results used in the tables are taken from the 1910 Austrian and Hungarian census based on “language” and “religion” categories. The later census results are usually based on declared “nationality.” A significant consequence of this difference is that in the Austrian and Hungarian census Jews can be found either among the German- or the Hungarian-speaking population, while in subsequent census results they are always designated a separate “nationality.” For this reason, additional information is provided in some of the footnotes regarding the Jews.
