Summary/Abstract: The history of the Hungarian Broadcast of the (Czech)Slovak Radio is closely linked to the history of the Hungarian culture in Slovakia. In its programmes, it devoted a significant role to children and young people. It broadcast programmes that were in line with the social and educational needs and pedagogical goals of the second half of the 20th century. The programmes for children and young people reflected on the society of the time, and the influence of the socialist ideology was evident in their content. At the same time, these programmes also conveyed values which were im¬portant in terms of education, knowledge and entertaining. In this study, our main aim is to map, interpret and analyse the pedagogical character of the children’s and youth programmes of the Hungarian Broadcast of the (Czech) Slovak Radio. We will present the history of the Hungarian Broadcast of the (Czech)Slovak Radio and provide a summary of programmes for children and young people. The educational character of these programmes, their educational aims and intentions will be analysed. Three programmes are highlighted, and the circumstances of their creation, their content and their educational aims are examined in more detail.
